IT WAS an exciting finish as the MetroForecast Challenge went down to the wire just like the English Premier League season.

The MetroSport Forecast Challenge took an exciting twist this season as Star Media Group’s in-house team went head-to-head with Astro SuperSport’s hosts Adam Carruthers, Michelle Lee and Reem Shahwa.

The six pundits predicted the outcome of four selected English Premier League matches each week during the course of the season.

The points were tabulated on a system that awarded the exact score line with 40 and 10 points for the correct result (win, lose or draw).

Points were tabulated weekly with the final tally decided last week as the curtains came down on the Premier League season with Man City topping the league.

In the end, The Star pundits edged their Astro counterparts.

Randeep, Shaun and Ivan’s combined score totalled 2,640 points while Astro pundits Adam, Michelle and Reem together scored 2,510 points.

Randeep, from The Star’s Business Desk, emerged overall champion with a score of 1,010 points with Reem coming in a commendable second place with 900 points.
