Great performance and win at the weekend which raises us back up to third and puts us in a strong position for the final push to the end of the season which will hopefully end in automatic Champions League qualification. Four domestic cup finals to go.
For the fifth game in a row, no-one predicted the first goalscorer, no-one has got a first goalscorer since 17 predictors did for Torres knotching first against Kazan.
However a 2-0 home was a popular score so well done to JTHT, Tucking Fypo, JNR, Obers, John Mikel Obi-Wan Kenobi and DidierTorresMeireles who all got 8 points to help their late surges up the table.
Next up it is the second leg of our Europa League Semi Final against FC Basle of Switzerland (Thursday 2nd May 2013 KO 8.05)

The table is now locked down so no new predictors (or ones that have been relegated) will go back on the board. You are very welcome to still have a stab at predicting though.
