Latest 6 Scores Challenge Tips

Here are the predictions for the latest bet365 6 Scores Challenge played on 7th + 8th December 2024 (we provide our reasons why below):

Our 6 Scores Challenge Predictions

Aston Villa vs Southampton

Slump? What slump? All it took was one emphatic win for Aston Villa fans to breathe a sigh of relief. Following on from their triumph over Brentford, they are back up to 7th in the table and they're breathing down the neck of Manchester City in 4th. Of course, Unai Emery still has to work out how to manage his resources given the volume of games coming his way, but they'll be feeling fairly confident heading into a game like this one.

Southampton, meanwhile, already look like a team destined to drop back down to the second tier. The Saints have a lot of spirit but their 5-1 battering at the hands of Chelsea this week served as a reminder of just how off the pace they are. If they can keep it tight and compact at the back for the first 15-20 minutes then they may start to build some confidence, but in reality, the most likely outcome of this one is going to be a 2-0 Villa win, in our opinion.

Prediction: Aston Villa 2-0 Southampton

Brentford vs Newcastle

With six wins, two draws and six losses to their name, Brentford continue to serve as one of the most unpredictable teams in the league. Alas, while that may be frustrating for some, the bigger picture is that they're starting to really establish themselves as a consistent mid-table team in the top flight. Thomas Frank has found a system that works and they're currently sat in 9th place, just one win away from mixing things up in the European conversation.

As for Newcastle, they may look back on their 3-3 draw with Liverpool as a real turning point in their campaign. Once again, they played to the level of their opposition, as highlighted by wins over Chelsea and Arsenal alongside a draw and a loss to Crystal Palace and West Ham. Eddie Howe needs to see games like this as must-wins if they're serious about mounting another European push, and we do think they'll have enough in the tank to get the three points here.

Prediction: Brentford 1-2 Newcastle

Crystal Palace vs Manchester City

Don't look now, but Crystal Palace have only lost once in their last six games in all competitions. They are far from the finished product and they could do with some reinforcements in January, but their star players are beginning to find their feet in the league this season. Yes, they're still down in 17th, but they've proven that they are capable of overcoming the teams around them - which will prove critical if they're still in the relegation mix in a couple of months.

As for Manchester City, Pep Guardiola will be feeling pretty good about the fact that his team actually have a win under their belt after a terrible run of form recently. They managed to see off the challenge of Nottingham Forest with relative ease, and you have to wonder whether or not they'll be able to turn that into a resurgence. Selhurst Park isn't the easiest place to go, but it also isn't the hardest fixture in the world, which is why we're backing a 2-1 City win.

Prediction: Crystal Palace 1-4 Manchester City

Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest

If Manchester United are going to succeed under the guidance of Ruben Amorim, it's going to take time - and the fans need to understand that. Yes, the win over Everton was emphatic, but their 2-0 defeat at the hands of Arsenal served as a reminder of just how far this team still has to go. They've got a lot of quality in their ranks but when matched up against a well-oiled unit, they just can't find that cutting edge on a consistent basis.

For Nottingham Forest, their incredible start to the campaign means that dominant losses to teams like Arsenal and Manchester City isn't going to bother them too much. Their number one priority would've been survival at the start of the season and right now, they're sat in 6th place in the league. We don't expect them to stay there, but we do think they'll put up a good point in this game, only slipping to a narrow 1-0 defeat.

Prediction: Manchester United 1-0 Nottingham Forest

Fulham vs Arsenal

Fulham, as has been the case for the last couple of years, are a solid mid-table side. They are down in 12th position right now with five wins, four draws and four losses behind them. No, the Cottagers don't have the most thrilling squad you've ever seen, but they have enough quality to churn out results. It's a nice blend of youth and experience that they possess and even against the best teams in the league, they're able to make some noise.

As for Arsenal, many have been critical of their style of play recently, even dubbing them the new Stoke. Alas, Mikel Arteta won't care too much about that as they continue to hunt down Liverpool in the title race. They're only seven points off the pace and while you can't rule out City, or a random dip in form, they seem to have recovered from their stumble a few weeks back. In this one, we expect a tough and tight game that ends in a 2-1 win for the Gunners.

Prediction: Fulham 1-2 Arsenal

Tottenham vs Chelsea

Tottenham Hotspur will continue to play the most unpredictable football you've ever seen so long as Big Ange is in charge. In their last six games alone they've battered Manchester City 4-0, battered Aston Villa 4-1, drawn 1-1 with Fulham and lost 2-1 to Ipswich. It most be utterly infuriating to be a Spurs supporter right now but at the same time, if you're a neutral, you know you're always going to get some real entertainment value when you tune in.

Chelsea, meanwhile, are firing on all cylinders, to the point where they could legitimately be seen as a sneaky contender in the title race. That would've been an insane thought just a few months ago but all of the investment they've poured into the team appears to be paying off. In this game, however, we expect the free-flowing Blues to really have it out with their rivals in a back and forth slugfest, ending in a respectable 2-2 draw.

Prediction: Tottenham 2-2 Chelsea

With free prediction games gaining more popularity in the last few months, bet365’s 6 Scores Challenge is not the only game on the market today. In the table below, we list the alternatives available.

Research Suggestions

Although the game is open to all bet365 customers, it is arguably a game that rewards those who put the time and effort first, so do your research by reading through form tables to look at the home and away form as well as goals scored and goals against.

Also, be sure to check for any critical player injuries. Like with Fantasy Football, you don’t want to put all your hopes on a team winning only to find their best player is out injured.

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.
