Welcome all to the World Cup 2018 prediction competition. It's a slightly different format to the regular season's competition but the scoring system is the same. For those of you not familiar with the regular competition it's 3 points for a correct score and 1 for a correct result, with additional bonus predictions for other outcomes. Any amendment to your post after games have kicked off will make those results null and void.
