Here's six pieces of advice to help you win the Super 6 jackpot…

Soccer Saturday host Jeff Stelling says: "Do your research"

"We're expecting more than one million entries on Saturday with such a big jackpot up for grabs, but there's certainly ways to find an edge. You can, of course, study your basic stats; home form, away form, clean sheets and team news, then there's average goals per game, head-to-heads, records at certain grounds and home and away goals if you really want to swot up. If you haven't got time then you could just be lazy and listen to the Soccer Saturday boys in the studio, live on Sky Sports from 12pm."

Super 6 pundit league table leader Matt Le Tissier says: "Possession isn't always the law"

"I'm obviously lucky that I get to watch a lot of football and have to study the game as part of my job. There are some stats that are more useful than others, though. For example, if a team is creating a lot of goalscoring chances then they're going to get results, whereas possession can be misleading if they're not penetrating."

Sky Bet Football League pundit Ian Holloway says: "Team news is vital"

"Predicting results in the Sky Bet Championship has been my toughest job in football, without a shadow of a doubt. Trying to keep Blackpool in the Premier League was a doddle in comparison! At least as a football manager you have a chance of winning, losing or drawing. However, as a predictor it's very lose-lose as you're bound to upset someone even if you're right.

"Preparation is key when tipping Championship games as if you don't do your homework you're in trouble as a key attacking player could be suspended or injured. Individual quality in the final third makes a massive difference in this division. For example, Brentford are a different side without Alan Judge. He's fit and in form this weekend, so that's one of the main reasons why I'm going for a 2-1 Brentford win."

Most recent £250,000 Super 6 jackpot winner Owen Burrows says: "Stick with your initial predictions"

"I'd say go with your gut and never change your predictions once you've made them, even if I've got a slight doubt because I'd be too worried that my initial instincts were correct. I actually changed my mind about one result when I won it but fortunately left it alone."

Opta Joe says: "Take your chances"

Opta provide their Super 6 stats and suggestions for the £1m jackpot.

"Shot conversion rate has been possibly Leicester's biggest success this season, having had only the ninth highest total number of shots and the 18th highest possession figure in the division. The taking of their chances over the course of the season when they've arrived has put them top. As for creating them, that has been key for the rest of the top four, with Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester City in the top four of the most chances fashioned."

Sky Bet's Head Football Trading Andy Wright says: "Bankers won't make you a millionaire"

"It's a case of finding a balance with the sort of odds you're going with. If you back all of the favourites to win 2-1 and the close games to be 1-1 draws then the chances are you're going to be sharing the jackpot with a few people if you do win. If you fancy an upset or a comfortable win go with it, then the chances of you being the solitary winner will increase."
