There are only five fixtures left this weekend and all are congested. Will all five be played? We'll see. If 5 fixtures had to be postponed due to COVID, is it really safe to play any of the other 5? Good question!

Here are the Boxing Day matches, maybe, if COVID cooperates. These will be followed by more holiday fixtures.

All the best to you and your family. Have a very Merry Christmas!

Hi Ray

Question. Currently I’m having to click on the attachment link you provide each week/round that then gives your predictions. Is there any other way I can get the same information/predictions without having to manually click on the link, download the word doc, copy paste for me to run an automated script to single out which matches I should place a stake on?

Do you perhaps have a API I could call using Curl/PHP?

Hi Fatcat.

I have been providing my soccer and rugby predictions to Ozmium for several years because a friend established this website. I do not have time to create a master site to include my predictions, to include bookie offerings and to program my suggested betting rules. The info I provide is for all my Ozmium friends to use for fun, as each so desires.

I am surprised that for the last four weeks of congested fixtures, my favourites have won 18 of 21 non-drawn matches. COVID has been so bad so far this season, that 16 matches have been postponed.

You may enjoy some Zoom talks I have recorded, covering my work on the amazing progress of Olympic champions in individual sports. You can go to YouTube and search for Ray Stefani. Click on my photo and you can watch 5 recorded conference Zoom talks.

Meanwhile, I wish everyone a Happy New Year.

Even though we have been inundated with congested fixtures, which in past seasons have resulted in huge upsets; for the last 8 rounds, my favourites have won 80% of the matches that were not drawn. I think the teams cannot manage resources by holding out good players, considering that they are happy to just field a full team, considering COVID issues. They seem to be playing up to their abilities.

Speaking of COVID, the Leicester vs Norwich match has already been postponed.

Have a Happy New Year, football friends.

In Round 21, had you bet on all underdogs, you would have made a 46% profit, It looks like congested fixtures remain unpredictable in spite of recent weeks.

There will be three make-up matches in midweek before Round 22.

Happy New Year,

Because of makeup matches before and after Round 22 and becasue of a few cup matches, all round 22 fixtures are congested.

As we move forward, the EPL will be inserting midweek makeup matches which will continue to create congested fixtures.

Good luck, everyone,

It must be tough to be in the EPL these days. When they try to plan ahead, they don't know whom they will play, if they will play and who will be on the field. These four matches will be followed by weekend matches so all four are congested fixtures.

Be well,

Ray Stefani
