Group A predictionsTranscript
Hello and welcome to The Premier Skills English prediction competition. In this competition, you need to make predictions for all the matches that are going to take place during the world cup.
That’s a lot of matches.
How do you play?
If you predict the right result – the winner or a draw, then you will get 1 point. If you predict the right score, you will get 3 points. If you want to win the competition, you will have to make as many predictions as possible.
To make your predictions, you have to use the forms on the Premier Skills English website. But you can’t do it all at once. The group stages are live now so you can make those predictions but we’re not going to know the last 16 matches until the groups have finished and only after those matches have finished will we know the quarter-finals and then the semi-finals and then the final.
Throughout the competition, we’re going to remove the matches from the different forms as soon as they kick off so be sure to get your predictions in early.
At the end of the competition, we’re going add up all of your points and the top five scores will be the winners. The winners will win a new football shirt for the new season. You can choose the club and the size and we’ll do our best to send it to you wherever you are in the world.
Please read the terms and conditions for the competition, but if you have any questions, please feel free to leave them in the comments section on the competition pages on Premier Skills English or get in touch with us directly by email at premierskills@britishcouncil.org.
Good luck everyone and enjoy the football.

It isn't clear for the knockout stages if our predictions should be for the end of full time or extra time. (KO matches go to extra time if it is a draw, and to penalties if there is no winner by the end of extra time.)

Hi jj606
All the predictions for the knockout matches are for the final score at the end of 90 minutes or 120 if there is extra-time. If you think it will go to penalties, choose a draw. It's not necessary to predict the winner of the shootout.
Hope that helps,

Hi mufans
Thanks for your message. Yes, you're right, we should have the new clubs p on the homepage. Most people have their eyes on the World Cup at the moment but as soon as it's over it will be back to the bread and butter of the Premier League and the articles about the new clubs will be one of our priorities.
Thanks again and it's great to have you on the Premier Skills English website!
