Guess the Starting XI – CCC vs. Inter Miami

Welcome back, everyone.

The road to continental silverware continues, as the Vancouver Whitecaps are set to host Inter Miami in the first leg of a CONCACAF Semifinal tie this Thursday at BC Place. Will Messi and the gang play, and if so for how long? Questions we will be eager to see answered on Thursday night.

Getting Messi: Whitecaps welcome Inter Miami for Semifinal

In terms of Vancouver’s lineup, it looks like Sam Adekugbe and Jayden Nelson will be back in the squad, so we will see what roles they might play. Otherwise, Ryan Gauld and Mathias Laborda remain out.

Alright, on to rules and standings we go.

– Predictions will be ‘valid’ if posted HERE (or more accurately, whichever is the correct match thread) before the lineup is officially announced, usually about an hour before kickoff.
– You receive 1 point for every player you correctly guess to be in the Starting XI. You receive 4 bonus points for correctly predicting all 11 starters.
– You get 5 points for correctly guessing Win/Lose/Draw, this doubles to 10 if you also predict the right score-line along with the result.
– All this means, if you correctly predict the Starting XI, Final Score, and Winner, you can earn 25 points!
– At the end of each half of the season, the contestant’s lowest two scores (or missed predictions) of that period will be deducted from the cumulative standings.

    I can’t imagine Jesper starting the same XI but he probably has something up his sleeve, despite my picks. That and I’d rather see Nelson instead of Ali (or anyone else, really)! I think this match could go in any direction as well.

    I’m hoping for El Capitano who has called for a 7-2 Vancouver win. I’ve never missed Ryan more.
