Super 6: Six things to consider when making your score predictions
Soccer Saturday Super 6 returns for the new football season and a biggest ever jackpot prize of £2 million could be up for grabs!
You heard right. Super 6 will have a £2m jackpot for the first round of the season, but that condition is only if Super 6 reaches two million entries for their first round of the season.
But do not forget - it is not just the first round of fixtures - it is all season with plenty of chances to win.
We take a look at things to consider for your new Super 6 campaign.
Every second counts
A game of football can sometimes last near 100 minutes, and every single second counts when it comes to the final scoreline.
The 2018/19 season saw winners after last-minute winners, and those teams with a record of netting late may be worth considering.
For example, Debbie was one scoreline short of success last season and looked as if she'd miss out on the jackpot heading into the final minutes with Cardiff beating Southampton 1-0.
However, Jack Stephens' 91st minute strike, combined with Kenneth Zohore's winner just moments later, saw the game finish 2-1, giving Debbie 250,000 reasons to celebrate.
It isn't over until it's over!
The form guide
Points, goals and facts do not lie. All of the those can shape and mould your predictions.
Those in form are always worth considering for victory and top teams are often backed for victory, particularly at home.
The Super6 site is packed full of all the information you need for a specific game, included form across the last six games, which can be viewed on a game specific basis, alongside what others are predicting.
Utilise the statistics available when making your predictions.
Pundits predictions
As ever, the Soccer Saturday team will be providing their predictions for every game, and you can go head-to-head with the pundits to see if you can beat them.
Do you listen to them or go with your gut? Check out what they are saying in certain games and decide if you have the courage to go against the grain on certain occasions.
You can view what the pundits are going for each week, alongside their reasons for certain selections.
Don't doubt yourself
If your gut tells you to go with one team and your mates’ prediction makes you think twice, stick to your guns as you may regret it later on. Trust your instincts!
Or if there is a tough round of fixtures with teams you may not know as much about, do not shy away from the challenge – as stated above, look at the form guide, their position in the table, what pundits say and take a shot in the dark.
It is better than skipping a week, you have nothing to lose and have as much chance as the next person of capturing that all important jackpot cash prize!
Make it a part of your routine
There is nothing worse than realising you have missed the deadline for your Super 6 predictions, especially when it is being rubbed in by a league rival. We’ve all been there and it is not fun.
So make sure you have a regular routine in your week for checking and inputting predictions, such as during your lunch break at work on Mondays and Fridays to make sure you do not miss a round, midweek or weekend. If you put in your predictions early, you can always go back and change them closer to kick-off.
To avoid potentially missing a round, download the app from the Apple or Android app store and turn on your notifications so you can do them on the go.
