Well with another full weekend of Danske Bank Premiership fixtures to look forward to, starting from tonight, the team at Over the Turnstile is back again with their thoughts on how the matches are going to go.
This weekend our panel will be trying to predict the scores from the following fixtures, all tomorrow at 3:00pm unless stated otherwise:
Newry City v Ballymena United (Friday at 8:00pm)
Crusaders v Institute
Dungannon Swifts v Glentoran
Glenavon v Ards
Linfield v Cliftonville
Warrenpoint Town v Coleraine
After last week’s predictions the leader board looks like this:
1: Cameron 40
2: Keith O’D 39
3: Bryan 37
4: Rodney 35
5: Henry 34
6: Darren/Keith F 33
- Adrian 29
The highest points scorer last week was Henry who managed an impressive seven points as he correctly thought that Ballymena would come out on top by two goals to one against Cliftonville and that Dungannon and Warrenpoint would both score one apiece, as well as predicting a Linfield win against Institute.
Following Henry as last week’s highest points scorer is Cameron who predicted the correct result in the Warrenpoint v Dungannon game and also picked wins for Linfield, Ballymena and Crusaders. This was enough to see Cameron move a point clear at the top in his own right.
With plenty of football still to come though it is very tight with a mere 11 points separating first from bottom and only seven keeping Darren and Keith F, joint 6th, from the top of the table.
