Ligue 1 Match Predictions 2017/18 Matchweek 8

Here are my predictions for Matchweek 8 in Ligue 1.

For each correct result, I’ll award myself 10 points. If I get the scoreline correct, I’ll give myself an additional 20 points. If my chosen scorer is among the goalscorers, I’ll give myself another 20 points. Therefore the maximum points I can earn from each match is 50 points.

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