Prediction Panel Commentary Round 11

A better week for the panel after last week's disaster, with around half the results correctly picked and 10% of scores predicted accurately. In terms of results Chelsea and Manchester United winning were easy enough and given their form, most people had Arsenal to beat Spurs - but Liverpool losing at Fulham was trickier as was another win for Pompey and both Sunderland and Stoke failing to add to their string of excellent home wins against struggling teams (West Ham and Wolves). So overall a mixture are predictable and shock results with the 3-1 win for Fulham against Liverpool the biggest shock of the weekend.
