Last week we invited Leicester Tigers No.8 Jordan Crane to go up against Mercury sports writer James Sharpe in predicting the results of the weekend's Premier League games.
It's 3pts for a correct score, and 1pt for just getting the right result.
Both pundits managed to predict the result of five games apiece but, crucially, it was our man who managed to turn two of them into correct scores – Arsenal's 2-2 draw with Man City and Everton's 2-0 victory at West Brom.
That means it is Sharpe who takes the victory over the Tigers back-rower, with a final score of 9-5.
Premier League | Score | Sharpe | Crane |
SATURDAY | | | |
Arsenal v Man City | 2-2 | 2-2 | 2-1 |
Chelsea v Swansea | 4-2 | 3-1 | 2-1 |
C Palace v Burnley | 0-0 | 2-0 | 1-1 |
S'ton v Newcastle | 4-0 | 2-1 | 3-1 |
Stoke v Leicester | 0-1 | 1-1 | 1-0 |
Sunderland v Spurs | 2-2 | 1-2 | 1-2 |
West Brom v Everton | 0-2 | 0-2 | 2-1 |
Liverpool v Villa | 0-1 | 3-0 | 4-0 |
SUNDAY | | | |
Man Utd v QPR | 4-0 | 3-0 | 3-1 |
MONDAY | | | |
Hull v West Ham | 2-2 | 2-1 | 1-1 |
| | | |
So, after three weeks, Sharpe still has his 100 per cent record intact.

The only pundit to correctly predict Leicester City's 1-0 win at Stoke was Mercury reader AlexMay14 but it was LCFCMike who came closest to pipping Sharpe to the win. He also correctly predicted the 2-2 draw between Arsenal and Man City as well as five other results.
