Like our Round 6 winner Awongwa. K who walked away from this weekend R30 000 richer. “How did they do it?”, you might be wondering.
Well, let’s go through the Round 6 results & share how close they came to the gargantuan R2 Million prize jackpot!
Liverpool managed to canter home to a 3-1 victory, despite playing the majority of the second half with ten men. After new signing, Alexis Macallister saw red for a dangerous tackle.
Arsenal came out victorious from their war of attrition on Monday night thanks to a single Martin Odegaard penalty. Mikel Arteta’s men are now 2 from 2, despite looking like a shadow of their dominant selves from last season.
Manchester United’s defence came into question, as two goals from unmarked players in a crowded box saw them go down 2-0 to Tottenham Hotspurs.
Molefi Ntseki’s reign at Kaizer Chiefs was further complicated by a freak own goal from an otherwise perfect Brandon Peterson performance.
The ball ricocheted off the upright only to strike the diving keeper in his back & trickle into his own goal. But Chiefs’ misfortune was great for Awongwa, who managed to predict all four of these results correctly and thus earn 20-points.
Where they came undone was in believing Boehly’s Billions would get Chelsea the 2-0 win, only for the Blues to suffer a 3-1 loss to a 10-man West Ham side.
And finally, underestimating a well-organised Newcastle side, who only lost 1-0 to Manchester City, as opposed to the predicted 3-0 hammering our winner predicted.
ROUND 7 ACTION
Just eight points and a four-goal swing was the difference between R30 000 and R2 Million. Now that you see how EASY it can be for you to be a winner, let’s offer you some guidance as you look to win big with us, in Round 7.
Our action kicks off with a London Derby as Fulham make the short trip from Craven Cottage to The Emirates to take on Arsenal for regional dominance of England’s capital.
Manchester United, who have only managed to score one goal in this campaign thus far, are taking on a side who have found the back of the net three times in two games, in Nottingham Forest.
The blades of Sheffield United will have to be sharper than ever to score their first points of the season against a Manchester City squad that doesn’t show any weaknesses.
Brighton & Hove Albion could consolidate their position at the top of the table with a third straight victory of the season on Saturday, when they come up against a West Ham side soaring high like pretty bubbles.
But the marquee fixture of the weekend is when Newcastle and Liverpool go toe-to-toe at St James’ Park.
The Reds, who have been Manchester City’s biggest rivals over the last five seasons, finally managed a convincing victory with a midfield that looks to be on song at the right moment.
Meanwhile, The Magpies illustrated that they should be considered a new power in the English Football hierarchy despite a 1-0 loss to Manchester City.
Will it be Liverpool’s defence or Newcastle’s attack that writes the headlines on Sunday evening?
So will it be Newcastle or Liverpool that you pin your R2 Million hopes on? Will it be the “new kid on the block” Eddie Howe or seasoned manager Jurgen Klopp who will double your joy with our Double Jackpot?
Either way, this weekend promises to be a cracking affair and you don’t want to miss out on the chance to make real money, for free.
