City at Crew... U Pick!

[Gotham Gator]

Pick the score, the goalscorers and their order, and the POTM (Pigeon of the Match). The contestant picking the correct result (win, lose, draw) and coming closest to the actual score wins a Mug of Ale from me should we ever meet and his/her name permanently enshrined in the Hall of Victory!

Good Luck!

Tiebreakers, in order:
(1) correct result (win, lose, draw)*
(2) closest to the actual score
(3) correctly naming the most goalscorers
(4) correct goalscoring order (by team)
* - a player cannot win by picking a win if the result is a loss (and vice versa)

You guys is crazy. We don't play well on the road with a full squad, let alone our B- squad on Saturday!

I've been banned from predicting losses. Especially after winning every Cosmos guess ever.

Here's a Poisson distribution based on expected goals, adjusted for H/A and strength of schedule. If I knew what I was doing I'd tweak this to account for the method's tendency to underpredict draws, but I don't know man, that sounds kind of nerdy.
