Mini-season breakdown:

2nd Mini-season: Ralfbergs 29
3rd Mini-season: zipnolan 26
4th Mini-season: zipnolan 27
5th Mini-season: TheBigLewandowski 29
6th Mini-season: GeoffV 29

Meaning the following people have qualified for the two-week Grand Final:

TheBigLewandowski
Ralfbergs
zipnolan
GeoffV

Grand Final, Week 1 is like a normal week:

For the 4 players listed above - pick any 5 games, predict if that match will be "Both Teams will Score" YES or NO and identify a JOKER to score a potential 2 bonus points. Usual tie-break rules will apply

Ideally we will we end up with just two in the Grand Final, Week 2 where you will predict the results for all 10 fixtures including a JOKER after which hopefully we will have our Both Teams to Score Winner 2025/26

You can either post your predictions on here or sent them to me via PM etc

Good luck!

Commiserations to GeoffV

Brighton & Hove Albion v Man Utd
Burnley v Wolves
Crystal Palace v Arsenal
Fulham v Newcastle
Liverpool v Brentford
Manchester City v Aston Villa
Nottingham Forest v Bournemouth

Tie break order as per usual - correct joker then highest number of correct No picks

Please can you PM your selections to me by the 16:00 kick-off on Sunday

Please also post an additional tie break on the thread:

Total number of goals scored across all 10 games

This needs to be unique and will only be used if the standard tie breaks can not separate the finalist's scores



Good luck, I will post selections on here before kick off on Sunday

[zipnolan]

Okay, I’ll guess 34 goals.

Good luck all!

[TheBigLewandowski]

PM sent. For the tie breaker, I'll guess 36 goals.
Best of luck

[morganb]

Just to let you know I've received PMs from everyone - I'll post all three sets of picks/comparisons in due course

[morganb]

Here are everyone's picks for the Grand Final:

BTTS_GF_2025_26.png

Plenty of variety so hopefully we won't need the goals tie-break

(Ralf purposely didn't provide a figure so I've given him the number between the other two guesses, hence the *. If we do go to the tie-break and this is correct then I win! )

Hope to see you all again in August for 2026/27
