Our 6 Scores Challenge Research:

Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest - There is no doubt that Liverpool’s new manager has slot right into life in the Premier League. Arne Slot has undertaken three games in charge of the Merseyside men, picking up three wins in the process. Not only that, but it is seven goals scored at one end of the field and not a single conceded in the first 270 minutes of action. The kind of numbers where supporters cannot ask for much more and to be honest, why would they? This evolution of Liverpool has not missed a step since Jurgen Klopp passed on the managerial baton and they were ruthless in their destruction of Manchester United in their last outing before the international break and although the Reds made two new signings just before the transfer window closed, it has been the same players that Slot previously inherited that have been currently running riot. While it is not just the usual suspects who are doing what is usually expected of them but it is also players such as Luis Diaz who seem invigorated by the change of management. That is not to say that the Colombian forward was floundering under the former boss, more of a case of finding an extra level that not many even knew he had under his new boss and with the addition of Federico Chiesa to the Anfield forward ranks, it will only add an extra bow to Liverpool’s attack. Good news for their supporters but bad news for just about everyone else.

While it could also be bad news for upcoming opponents Nottingham Forest and although Nuno Espirito Santo’s men arrive at Anfield having started the season unbeaten, their run of three without defeat is going to be placed under serious threat. Before they visit Merseyside, Forest have secured five points from the first nine on offer and those connected to the club must be rather pleased with what they have seen thus far. Admittedly, the fixture computer has been rather kind to the City Ground outfit and on that ground, Forest have picked up home draws against both Bournemouth and Wolves. Teams that you would expect to be in and around Nottingham’s premier outfit at the end of the season and this is why the win at Southampton on the second week of the season was vitally important even at this stage. Simply put, the more points that manager Espirito Santo and his players can wrack up during the first half of the season, the less they have to try and find after the festive period. Considering even 40 points is rarely required these days, the likes of Morgan Gibbs-White and Chris Wood will be confident that this campaign will not be as difficult as the previous one and for each season the club can stay in the top tier, it will only help them become reestablished as a member of English football’s top tier. 40 years or so ago, Liverpool at home to Nottingham Forest used to be one of the most anticipated clashed of the season but over the decades it has lost its lustre. However, Liverpool have not lost their lustre when it comes to wanting success and we predict a 2-0 home win at Anfield.

Manchester City vs Brentford - Defending champions Manchester City playing how you would expect defending champions to play. Three games into the season and Pep Guardiola’s men have picked up the maximum number of points currently available. Wins over Chelsea, Ipswich and West Ham have been as routine as they could possibly be, City’s championship cohorts rarely even breaking sweat as they roll over opponent after opponent. Not breaking sweat but knowing how to break an opponent's morale is exactly the way that the Eitihad outfit have performed since the start of new season and Erling Haaland is already making defences sweat with his mere presence. The Norwegian forward has scored successive hat-tricks and with trebles against the Tractor Boys and the Hammers, those six goals go alongside the one he scored at Chelsea on the opening weekend. For those, who refuse to do the maths in this equation, it means that fearsome Haaland has already scored seven goals this season - that is seven goals in his first three games of the campaign. A ludicrous return and one that means he would have to draw a blank in the next four games just to get to a ratio of a goal a game. For some players that goal blitz could be defined as nothing more than a purple patch and soon there will be regression to the mean. For Manchester City’s hitman, it means he means business and is ready to smash the next team that dares stand in his way.

Unfortunately for Brentford, it is they that has the next attempt at trying to derail this almost unstoppable City juggernaut. However, they do have the slight weight of history behind them and for those who can remember before the 2022 World Cup took place in Qatar, it was the Bees who stung City at the Etihad after picking up a shock 2-1 win. A shock that was largely generated by Ivan Toney but now the West London outfit are no longer with their talisman and with the England international moving to Saudi Arabia before the transfer window closed, Brentford can finally end the debate on whether the 28-year-old will still be at the club. For all the talk that Toney made before last season came to a close, a move to the Middle East is probably not what he was expecting. Truth be told, nobody was expecting it but he got his move and more importantly, Brentford got their money. Even more important than that, they have shown that once again life does go on without the player who previously served an eight-month ban. Brentford held their own during that ban and they have held their own during this new campaign. Wins over Crystal Palace and Southampton being recorded at home. The only blot on the copybook was the routine loss to Liverpool in the second week of the season. Another heavyweight to go up against is likely to bring the same outcome in our opinion and this is why we have backed a 3-0 home win for Manchester City.

Aston Villa vs Everton - Aston Villa return from their international break having won two of their first three matches of the season and whereas it was Villa Park where all the points were being collected last season, this time around it is points that have been picked up on the road. Of course, Unai Emery’s men have only played once on home soil to date and that was the recent defeat to Arsenal, therefore it would be unfair to suggest that their fortress is crumbling before their very eyes. A 2-0 loss to the Gunners does not necessarily tell the full story of the game and had Ollie Watkins slotted home before the break, there is every chance that he and his Villa teammates would be celebrating their first home point or points of the season. However, it is away days where manager Unai Emery has had reasons to celebrate and with a pair of 2-1 away wins being recorded at both West Ham and Leicester before the break, Villa’s start to a campaign where they hope once again to earn Champions League qualification at the end of it has gone as well as it could have possibly been. A key reason for such a bright start is the arrival of Amadou Onana from Everton and with the Belgian midfielder being drafted in to fill the gap left behind by Douglas Luiz’ departure to Juventus, he has already chipped in with two goals - one each in each of these two and as luck would have it, he now prepares to go up against his former club at Villa Park.

A club that is in nothing short of disarray at the moment. The financial woes off the field are yet to be resolved and although that was previously the storm cloud hanging over their heads, at least the football was keeping their heads above water. Unfortunately this season, that does seem to be the case and with three successive defeats to their name, there is a real sense of gloom coming out of Goodison Park in its last season of operation. A ground that has already seen Everton lose 3-0 to Brighton on the opening weekend of the season and is still reeling from the preposterous manner in which they succumbed to defeat at the hands of Bournemouth before the international break. Two goals to the good by the time the 87th minute ticked over, things turned really bad and then ugly by the time the Cherries scored three goals in the time that was remaining. A cacophony of boos ringing out from the home support and this was just seven days after those who made the journey to North London witnessed their team lose 4-0 at the hands of Tottenham. It has been a tough start to the season for manager Sean Dyche but with this Everton current crop being very much a Sean Dyche-based team, can Everton even afford to sack him in the figurative and literal sense? The answer to that is likely to be no and if you were to ask whether Everton can get a point or more at Aston Villa, the answer would also be no. Therefore, we are backing Everton to succumb to a fourth successive defeat of the season and a 2-0 defeat in the West Midlands.

Bournemouth vs Chelsea - There is a rare Saturday night kickoff on the agenda as Bournemouth open their Vitality Stadium doors to Chelsea and it is fair to say that Andoni Iraola’s men are still wondering just how they managed to get out of Goodison Park with all three points in the possession. The Cherries simply had no right to get back into the game with such little time remaining and under the circumstances where they were two goals down with three minutes of normal time left, even a draw would have felt like a smash and grab. However, Bournemouth would go on to perform the footballing heist of the century and after picking up their first win of the season on the blue half of Merseyside, it means they have also picked five points from the first nine on offer. Successive draws to start the campaign, then followed by that incredible win at Everton and after a very slow start to last season, manager Iraola will be delighted by how his players have got this new campaign underway. Not only that, but the sale of Dominic Solanke to Tottenham has done little to knock Bournemouth off their stride. There is always a fear that when your star striker moves on, the house of cards will soon collapse but this has not been the case in Dorset and now they will look to extend their unbeaten run at the expense of Chelsea.

As for opponents Chelsea, it is fair to say that they have been something of a mixed bag at the start of the season and this is reflected in their three results. A dampening defeat on the opening weekend of the season at home to Manchester City, followed by an emphatic win at Wolves seven days later. Fast forward another seven days and it was frustration after being held at home to Crystal Palace. A trio of performances that suggest we have seen the good, the bad and the ugly of Enzo Maresca’s managerial tenure to date and it also suggests that Maresca is still trying to work out what his best 11 or even 20 players. A task that is understandably difficult when you consider just how bloated the current Chelsea squad is and although this club is considered to be a work in progress at best and a financial experiment at worst, there is no doubt that the former Leicester boss will need time to work out what his best setup actually looks like. Unfortunately for the Italian, Todd Boehly and the Clearlake ownership do not seem the kind of people who are keen on giving up too much time and what success on the field yesterday. There is no doubt that Chelsea has the necessary attacking talent to score goals and if anything, they may have too much of it to build anything in the way of continuity and cohesion. Because they have been such a mixed bag thus far, it is hard to predict anything in the truest confidence and this is why we have predicted a 1-1 draw on the South Coast.

Tottenham vs Arsenal - The first international break of the season is now behind us and this also means the first North London derby is upon us. Tottenham at home to Arsenal and the battle for bragging rights should bring about its usual drama to N17. While there has been plenty of early drama when it comes to Spurs’ showings thus far and although a resounding win at home to Everton certainly hit the high notes, their other two performances have been largely out of tune. The opening weekend saw them travel to Leicester and for all their dominance in terms of possession and chances, Ange Postecoglou’s men could only manage a draw. A disappointing outcome after going ahead through Pedro Porro’s header and bossing the game for so long and there was further disappointment after their recent trip to Tyneside. Once again, Spurs had the bulk of the chances and the ball but once again, suicidal defending cost them the chance of earning anything at St James’ Park. That 2-1 defeat at Newcastle means that manager Postecoglou and his players have had an underwhelming start to their campaign and it is fair to say that there is an element of pressure that has been heaped on the shoulders of the burly Australian. Not what you need when your neighbours have been in the title mix the past two seasons and have started this campaign rather well and especially not what you need when you welcome those same uninvited neighbours through your doors.

Tottenham need a win in this game but it is fair to say that Arsenal do as well. Not only to reaffirm their supremacy in North London but to also return to winning ways after being held before the international break. By the time Kai Havertz had put the Gunners ahead before the interval at home to Brighton, it looked as if things were heading in only one direction. However, Declan Rice’s red card soon after the interval put Mikel Arteta’s men in reverse and no sooner had Arsenal been reduced to 10 men, had they then been pegged back by the Seagulls. Two points dropped at home is always going to smart but even more so when your nearest title rivals Manchester City then pull two points clear later that same afternoon. An unwanted deficit so early in the season means there is plenty of time to claw it back but for all the talk of this being the season in which Arsenal finally climb the mountain top, it looks like their hiking boots have been left behind in May. That is not to say that the Gunners are playing badly, far from it. They just do not have the confidence that was exuding from them six months ago and if they cannot rediscover that swagger quickly, then their title hopes are only going to be further dented. However, we seem them bouncing back against their nearest rivals and putting a further dent in their early season form as we predict a 2-1 win for Arsenal .

Wolves vs Newcastle - The Premier League weekend is rounded off at Molineux, as Wolves open their doors to Newcastle and they do so having picked up a single point from the first nine on offer. A tally that saw them open their bank account at Nottingham Forest thanks to a 1-1 draw before the international break and that result would certainly have been welcomed after the thrashing they received at home to Chelsea just six days previous. Six days previous and six goals conceded, not the performance that Gary O’Neil would have wanted to see and certainly not the performance that Wolves’ support would have wanted to see after seeing a defeat at Arsenal on the opening weekend. In fairness to manager O’Neil, the fixture computer could have been far kinder in the first two weeks of the season and the case for his defence will be able to offer some form of mitigation. However, Wolves’ defence was guilty of capitulating at the hands of Chelsea, which will be an alarm to those involved with the club. That is not to say that the current Wolves manager is leading the sack race at present - especially after signing a new contract recently but should results continue to go against the Molineux men, the club’s board may decide to put a new man in charge at some stage.

As for opponents Newcastle, they arrive in the West Midlands having picked up seven points from nine and suddenly the narrative on Tyneside is far more positive than it was after being held at Bournemouth. A severe slice of luck when Eddie Howe returned to the Vitality Stadium and although Newcastle picked up a point at the Cherries, it is hard to argue with conviction that they deserved one. At the same time, you could also argue that they did not deserve at home to Tottenham in their last outing before the international break but as the Premier League often reminds you, it is not always about performance when it comes to earning points. Tottenham had the lion’s share of the chances but Newcastle defended far better and even though their capture of Marc Guehi was not a successful one, the collective performance against Spurs suggests they did not really need him. Of course, that was just one game and there will surely be others where fans will bemoan the lack of a new centre back but right now fans can celebrate being back at the sharper end of the table. An unbeaten start to the season is never easy to find and regardless of how Newcastle have performed, they should be praised for getting the job done and the more this continues, the further away manager Eddie Howe will be from taking the England job. Another step away from Three Lions would be taken with a win at Wolves and this is what we are predicting as the Magpies ease to a 2-0 win.

Key Considerations:

Before the weekend’s 6 Scores Challenge gets underway, here are our key considerations:

Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest

Before the visit of Nottingham Forest, Liverpool have won each of their last four league outings and have kept a clean sheet in each of them. They have also gone undefeated in each of their last seven and when looking at results at Anfield, the Merseyside men have won 16 of the last 20.

As for Nottingham Forest, they arrive at Anfield having won each of their last three Premier League away matches. However, the caveat is each of these wins have come against a promoted side either this season or last (Sheffield United, Burnley and Southampton)

Manchester City vs Brentford

Manchester City’s winning streak in the Premier League at the Etihad is 31 matches long. In addition to this, Pep Guardiola’s men have won each of their last 12 regardless of venue - at this rate, they will fancy their chances of making it 50 games unbeaten in the English top tier.

Visitors Brentford have only won five of their last 20 on the road and perhaps more importantly, they have lost 13 of them (drawing the remaining two). Those 20 away days have seen them concede 33 goals in total, an average of 1.65 against per game.

Aston Villa vs Everton

Aston Villa have not won any of their last three home Premier League games. However, each of them have been against a member of the big six. When looking at the wider home form for Unai Emery’s men, they have managed 12 wins from their last 20.

As for the number 12, that is the number of successive games that Everton have currently failed to win on the road. Not since a 2-0 win over Burnley last December have the Toffees come out on top on the road.

Bournemouth vs Chelsea

Bournemouth have won seven of their last 20 home league matches at the Vitality Stadium. The remaining 13 have seen Andoni Iraola’s men draw just as many but also suffer six defeats in front of their own support.

Chelsea arrive at the Vitality Stadium having won each of their last three away games. When looking at their wider form, they have managed eight wins from their last 20 on the road, scoring 39 goals in the process.

Tottenham vs Arsenal

Of Tottenham’s last 20 home league outings, they have not drawn a single game. 14 of those outings have seen a win for Ange Postecoglou’s men, the other six have seen them suffer defeat in front of their own support.

Arsenal have won each of their last five away Premier League outings and in addition to this, they have also gone undefeated in each of their last 10. A run that has seen them pick up 28 points out of the 30 on offer.

Wolves vs Newcastle

Wolves have not won any of their last six consecutive Premier League matches and things are not a great deal better when looking at the last six home matches. At Molineux, Gary O’Neil’s men have won once and lost the remaining five.

Newcastle arrive in the West Midlands having gone unbeaten in their last two league away days but a look at their wider form on the road highlights they have only won six of their last twenty matches and have conceded a total of 41 goals - an average of 2.05 against per game.

During the last set of Premier League fixtures at the start of September, the £250,000 jackpot was finally one. Three lucky winners each pocketed £83,333 by predicting all 6 scores. Can it be repeated?

6 Scores Challenge Rules:

Regarding how the Bet365 6 Scores challenge works, the premise sounds rather simple - predict the correct scores in six selected matches and walk away with £250,000 for your troubles. This one is easy to play but incredibly difficult to master.

While to make mastering the game a little more difficult, there are no prizes for simply predicting the correct outcome. For example, if Arsenal play Tottenham and you predicted a 1-1 draw, that is the score required to tick off your first winner.

Should the two North London rivals play out a 2-2 draw instead, you may have backed the correct outcome, but it is no good when it comes to this free football jackpot game.

Final Thoughts:

This game is open to all Bet365 customers, and not only is it open to all, it could not be any easier to play although it is incredibly difficult to master. We all think we know our football, and backing a team to win, lose or draw is not the most difficult of wagers to place.

However, when you add the correct score into the mix, this is where things start to get a lot more difficult. But even though mastering the game may prove difficult, it does nothing to reduce the amount of fun that can be had.

Whether working alone or pooling your brain power with your friends, this football score predictions game is worth a look.

Another thing that needs to be highlighted is that the Bet365 £250,000 jackpot is only available until a person or persons do the business. Nobody has achieved prediction perfection yet; the holy grail of a cool half a million pounds is still yet to be reached.

Of course, that has not stopped a legion of punters from trying their luck each weekend, and although the Bet365 6 Scores Challenge has not been around for long, it has quickly become one of the most popular free games in the industry.
