Football season 2017/18 predictions review (how did I do?)

Football season 2017/18 predictions review (how did I do?)

At the beginning of every season I test my prediction skills by predicting the outcome of various league and cup competitions in European Football. So below is a review of those predictions and the end result. I’m sure it’s pretty self-explanatory but black is correct. Green is close and red is wrong. In the end I scored 18 1/2 points from a possible 59. Not great but in the grand scheme of things. Not that bad….I think!
