100% accurate?

Announced on these pages by Tim Morgan no less, Picklive will be doubling the Big Game prize for the first person to get a 100% maximum score. Now this is a tough challenge, any score over 90% should be considered excellent and the 94% from the Real game on Sunday was spectacular. But even that 94% is a long way from getting a perfect score.

For the prize to be won there'll probably need to be three ingredients:
1. A big match attracting lots of pickers (more chance of someone picking the right 5).
2. One team team clearly dominating (it's easier to pick 5 from 11 than from 22...)
3. A match with no surprising subs, cards or too many goals.

So from that lot I would say an International or Champions League match would be most likely or possibly Real or Barca at home in La Liga. Looking at the fixtures I can't see anything there likely to worry the Picklive beancounters for a while. If it goes before Inter v Spurs on the 20th Oct I'll be very surprised. That is unless England turn it on on Tuesday or someone with a strong knowledge of how N. Ireland play gets their 5 right against the Faroes??
