⚽ DON HALE'S WEEKEND FOOTBALL SPECIAL!

⚽ DON HALE'S WEEKEND FOOTBALL SPECIAL!

After a promising opening edition with 7 correct results from 9, and on Wednesday Night 6 correct results from 6, I'm back with another weekend of football predictions!

This time we're covering:

🏆 Premier League
⚽ Championship
🏴 Scottish Premiership

My personal match predictions and scorelines, comparisons with independent forecasting models, and our ever-popular Golden Goal selection.

Can we improve on last week's results? There are plenty of intriguing matches, including Leeds v Spurs, Forest v Man City, Wrexham v Wolves, and St Mirren v Rangers.

It's all for football interest and entertainment – not betting advice.

Read the full feature on Coast & Country:
https://www.coastandcountry.blog/blog/categories/don-hale-s-football-predictions

Predict • Compare • Enjoy!

One final recommendation: before publishing, check the score predictions against your own preferred selections and let me know if you'd like any changed. The Golden Goal should be added once the line-ups are confirmed. Also, the fixtures currently verified run Friday to Sunday; I haven't invented a Monday fixture to fill the schedule. 

This is the link to the latest football score predictions:

Coast and Country online magazine and blog is working hard to help fundraise for Cancer Research Charities and they have designed an innovative new fun and entertainment feature to try to predict the scores/results/goal scorers etc, from some Premier League, Championship, and or Scottish and European competition matches from midweek, and at the weekends.

The prediction system is TOTALLY FREE FOR YOU TO ENJOY but we have added a direct donation payment link if you are able to contribute £2 or more, to help aid Cancer Research Charities in their desperate plea for funds and support.

The first three finishers at Rhos were all visitors and indeed seven out of the first ten were quality debutants, providing some very fast times ...
