For the First Group Stage, predict the winner of each game or predict a draw. Post the predicted standings for each group based on your game predictions. If you predict a tie for first place say who you think will win the tiebreaker. If you predict a tie that does not include first place you don't have to break the tie. You will be evaluated based on how many correct result predictions you had (9% of final score), how many points you were off on each team in the standings (12% of final score), and how many group winners you predicted correctly (6% of final score, it is straightforward and you get 1% per group winner predicted correctly) You may provide score predictions if you want but I won't evaluate score predictions until the Semifinals. Now I only care how many points you predict every team to get from every game. FIFA Tiebreakers: 1. Goal differential 2. Goals scored 3. Head-to-head record 4. Head-to-head goal differential 5. Head-to-head goals scored 6. Head-to-head goals with away goals counting double, this can't be used to break a tie with more than two teams The groups are: A: El Salvador, Suriname, Cayman Islands, and Dominican Republic B: Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Barbados, and Bermuda C: Panama, Dominica, Nicaragua, and Bahamas D: Canada, St. Kitts and Nevis, Puerto Rico, and St. Lucia E: Grenada, Guatemala, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and Belize F: Haiti, Antigua and Barbuda, Curacao, and U.S. Virgin Islands The round starts on September 2 and all predictions for this round must be made by then because I'm not doing score predictions for this round. I'll post my predictions later. Please sticky this topic. Feel free to unsticky the previous topic found at https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1722054. Edit: It might be a good idea to not predict until you know the order the games will be played.

Since TBR didn't post standings, I'll post his standings predictions based on those scores: Group A: El Salvador 18 Suriname 12 Dominican Republic 6 Cayman Islands 0 Group B: Trinidad and Tobago 18 Barbados 8 Bermuda 4 Guyana 2 Group C: Panama 18 Nicaragua 12 Bahamas 4 Dominica 1 Group D: Canada 16 Puerto Rico 13 St. Lucia 6 St. Kitts and Nevis 0 Group E: Guatemala 18 Grenada 8 St. Vincent and the Grenadines 5 Belize 3 Group F: Haiti 18 Curacao 12 U.S. Virgin Islands 4 Antigua and Barbuda 1 So of the first two people to predict, one person gave Antigua and Barbuda last with 1 point and the other person gave them first with 14 points.
I used a formula I made based on the FIFA Rankings and ESPN Soccer Power Index to rank the 24 countries on z-score (number of standard deviations above or below the mean). I then had to decide how small a gap between countries should result in a draw or the worse country winning because they are at home. I'm not going to post my predictions by matchday. I'll just post one group at a time listing every game I expect a country to get points from: Group A: El Salvador wins every game Suriname wins both games against Cayman Islands, wins home to Dominican Republic, and draws at Dominican Republic Dominican Republic wins both games against Cayman Islands and draws home against Suriname El Salvador: 18 points Suriname: 10 points Dominican Republic: 7 points Cayman Islands: 0 points Group B: Trinidad and Tobago wins every game Guyana wins both games against Bermuda, wins home to Barbados, and draws at Barbados Barbados wins home to Bermuda, draws home to Guyana, and draws at Bermuda Bermuda draws home to Barbados Trinidad and Tobago: 18 points Guyana: 10 points Barbados: 5 points Bermuda: 1 point Group C: Panama wins every game Dominica wins home to Bahamas, draws at Bahamas, and draws both games against Nicaragua Nicaragua wins home to Bahamas, draws at Bahamas, and draws both games against Dominica Bahamas draws home to Dominica and Nicaragua My formula for this group had Panama the best team by far with the other three close together Panama: 18 points Dominica: 6 points Nicaragua: 6 points Bahamas: 2 points Group D: Canada wins every game St. Kitts and Nevis draws both games against Puerto Rico and wins both games against St. Lucia Puerto Rico draws both games against St. Kitts and Nevis and wins both games against St. Lucia Canada: 18 points St. Kitts and Nevis: 8 points Puerto Rico: 8 points St. Lucia: 0 points Group E: Guatemala draws at Grenada and wins other five games Grenada draws home to Guatemala, wins both games against Belize, and wins both games against St. Vincent and the Grenadines Belize draws both games against St. Vincent and the Grenadines St. Vincent and the Grenadines draws both games against Belize Guatemala: 16 points Grenada: 13 points Belize: 2 points St. Vincent and the Grenadines: 2 points Group F: Haiti draws both games against Antigua and Barbuda and wins other four games Antigua and Barbuda draws both games against Haiti and wins other four games Curacao wins both games against U.S. Virgin Islands Haiti: 14 points (wins tiebreaker) Antigua and Barbuda: 14 points Curacao: 6 points U.S. Virgin Islands: 0 points These have the following averages: First place: 17 points Second place: 10 1/6 points Third place: 5 2/3 points Fourth place: 5/6 points

Group F is clearly the most intriguing. I honestly believe Antigua's the best team there but 4 predictions have 3 different group winners and the other a Haiti win via tiebreaker.
Yeah, Group F should definitely be interesting. My prediction of Curacao topping the group is dependent upon them getting as many dutch based dual-nationals as possible. If they don't then my prediction is worthless.
Interesting that CONCACAF has set up the schedule so that the top two seeds in each group play each other home-and-away during Matchdays 5 and 6 (November 11th and 15th). It is almost as though each of the four group winners will come from these four pairs of home-and-away matches. Kind of makes the Sept. and Oct. matches almost irrelevant. However, I am hoping for upsets!

Please post result predictions for every game in the groups I quoted. In the other three groups your result predictions are obvious based on your standings predictions. Also your Group D is impossible because it adds to 29 points, which would mean there are 7 draws, but you have Canada winning every game and there are 6 games not involving Canada.

I think it will be very hard for a team to keep motivated and focused to win all 6 games.
devioustrevor gave U.S. Virgin Islands 0 points in his standings predictions but I'm counting it as 1 point because he has them getting a draw on Matchday 3.
It's quite possible. I didn't tabulate it very well. It was done quickly, so with little more than finger counting.
Not necessarily. Dominican Republic and Cayman Islands aren't all that great, and El Salvador seems to be really hit or miss. They (El Salvador) made it to the Hex in 2010 qualifying, but in 2006 qualifying they barely made it past Bermuda in the 2nd round.
