PREMIER
All,
See below for predicts and matches to watch. Did some experimentation to adjust for the differences in relative group quality based on how groups did in previous showcases, so will see how it takes. Given the 50 minute games (vs 70 minutes), adjusted "goals scored" and "goals allowed" both down by about 25%, per previous showcases. Re: Crossfire Premier and Portland Timbers matches, leveraged the youthsocceranking for xfire data but data isn't available for Portland Timbers, so had to go with "n/a" for the Portland Timbers games. Sorry about that.
Last item (and then the predicts are below). Games are list by team in alpha order. The TopDrawer Oct rankings referenced can be found here - https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/club-soccer/club-soccer-team-rankings/men/u13/1/1076. FYI, there's a couple of Norcal teams who don't typically rate - the Breakers and the Mustangs - who look like they might surprise. So, be aware... Good luck SoCal!
Last last item. There's a consolidated list of matches to watch w/ the best matches listed for each game start time for both days at the end of the attached docs. Enjoy.
Here's best matches to watch:
