Ahead of kick-off of the new Barclays Premier League season, Campaign India's select panel of football aficionados are back to predict the scorelines of each match for each gameweek.
The panel comprises Aarish Matcheswalla, creative partner, OneSeptember; Gerard Jayaranjan, creative head, FCB Ulka Digital, Juju Basu, creative consultant and former VP and ECD, Contract Advertising, Raj Nair, chief creative officer, Madison BMB; Rahul Mathew, creative head - West, DDB Mudra; and Campaign India's in-house football follower, Raahil Chopra.
Last year's winner was Sanjay Gupta, head marketing - wellness and youth, Marico.
Scoring will be based on:
- Five points for each correct result.
- Ten points for the correct result with the right goal difference (if a match result is 2-0, and the score predicted is 3-1, the panelist will get 10 points). A draw will only be awarded five points.
- Twenty points for the exact scoreline.
