La Liga Match Predictions 2017/18 Matchweek 8

Here are my predictions for Matchweek 8 in La Liga.

Each correct result is worth 10 points. A correct scoreline is worth an additional 20 points. If my chosen scorer is among the goalscorers, that’s worth another 20 points. Therefore the maximum points I can earn from each match is 50 points.

If you don’t follow La Liga, I do a similar thing for the Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, and Ligue 1.
