Road to the World Cup: Croatia key winner confirmed

Another Premier League standout performer has earned a key in our Road to the World Cup campaign!

In Round 28 of our Premier League game, 'M1963' (Mauro Giudici from Italy) had the highest score of any Superbru player which has earned him the Croatia key and therefore a place in our Superbru 48 cash prize league.

If you still don't know about the Road to the World Cup campaign we are running, read the full article explainer here. The Superbru 48 will be an exclusive league made up of 48 key holders in this summer's World Cup Predictor. The total prize pot in the Superbru 48 will be at least Β£2,500.

The winning predictions

Mauro won the Croatia key with 22 points. One other player also managed 22, meaning the key was won on a tie-break which went down to lower total closeness.

With an impressive 9/10 overall, Mauro benefitted from the bizarre Sunday which featured 4 consecutive 2-1 scorelines, but crucially also had a 1-1 Exact for Bournemouth vs. Sunderland and was in the 7% of players that backed Everton to win at Newcastle.

Here are the picks that won Mauro the Croatia key:



Mauro claimed the Croatia key by responding to our email on Monday and is delighted to have qualified for the Superbru 48:

"First of all, I'm very happy for this amazing result in Round 28 of the Premier League Predictor."

"I did not expect to be the best-in-round, as I simply used the same strategy as in previous rounds, namely checking each team's recent results, checking the results obtained home and away and the historic results between the sides"

Mauro is also particularly chuffed to have claimed the Croatia key:

"I am also happy to win the Croatia key. Croatia's national teams often reach good results in several sports - football, basketball (remember Drazen Petrovic?), water polo, handball..."

"Croatia was on the podium in the last two editions of the World Cup so I hope they will be able to repeat this. I also hope to be able to be as successful with my World Cup predictions as they are on the football field"

Next available key

There are still plenty of Road to the World Cup keys to be won in the remaining rounds of our Premier League Predictor.

Mauro kindly getting back to us so quickly means we've had time to share this news ahead of Round 29 which already starts tonight!

In Round 29, the Paraguay key will be awarded to the top performer across the 10 matches πŸ‡΅πŸ‡ΎπŸ”‘



Remember, you only need one strong round in our Premier League game to win a key, and Paraguay's previous PL representatives are a fine example that you don't always need longevity to make an impact.

Roque Santa Cruz and Miguel Almiron each had memorable spells, and perhaps Brighton's Diego Gomez could play a role in crowning this week's key winner as he's been hitting some form in recent weeks... πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Ύ

Congratulations once again to Mauro and good luck to all in Round 29!
