As some of you know, I've been playing in a predictions pool for the English Premier League this year. After a couple of tough weeks, I've decided to see if I could turn my subjective decision factors into an algorithm that would just spit out my picks for me. I was using a little bit of math already, but the other bits of information I was using seemed consistent enough that I could build it all into an actual equation.
So, anyway, I won't reveal the formula itself, but here's what it gave me for this round's matches:
Arsenal 4-0 Burnley
West Ham 3-1 Bolton
Wolves 0-2 Man Utd
Everton 3-0 Hull City
Wigan 0-2 Liverpool
Pompey 1-1 Birmingham
Sunderland 2-1 Bolton
We'll see after Tuesday how this all worked out. If I go 7-for-7, I'm taking it to Vegas.
