I wish I would have seen this earlier....to answer now, seems like cheating.
Draws, wins or losses predictions for World Chess Championship?
Somewhat, but it would be nice to get people guessing early on and having a statistic on it. Then, comparing those statistics with later and final results of those games. Anyways, it's better late than never, sometimes.
So far between these two:
Carlsen won ten, Caruana won five, with 18 draws-
so if Carlsen has gotten a little weaker with age and Caruana a bit stronger with knowledge and experience
the ratio may change a little
bit not much
Magnus should be on top for a few more years yet I would think
I wish I would have posted sooner - but what do yall think about the World Championship? I actually think Caruana is gonna win
All draws except for the last game: Fabiano Caruana wins! Yeah just like how the NBA finals was boring.

Funny how "boring" in chess and in a lot of sports has such different meanings. If a chess match between two of the best players in the world ended 4-0 it would be anything but boring.
If the game all end in draw. Like, all twelve game matches, the players begin to play the rapid chess tie break.
My prediction are:
Round 1 - Draw - Magnus Carlsen, 1/2 - Fabiano Caruana, 1/2
Round 2 - Draw - Magnus Carlsen, 1/2 - Fabiano Caruana, 1/2
Round 3 - Magnus Carlsen, 1 - Fabiano Caruana, 0
Round 4 - Magnus Carlsen, 0 - Fabiano Caruana, 1
Round 5 - Magnus Carlsen, 0 - Fabiano Caruana, 1
Round 6 - Draw - Magnus Carlsen, 1/2 - Fabiano Caruana, 1/2
Round 7 - Magnus Carlsen, 1 - Fabiano Caruana, 0
Round 8 - Draw - Magnus Carlsen, 1/2 - Fabiano Caruana, 1/2
Round 9 - Draw - Magnus Carlsen, 1/2 - Fabiano Caruana, 1/2
Round 10 - Draw - Magnus Carlsen, 1/2 - Fabiano Caruana, 1/2
Round 11 - Magnus Carlsen, 1 - Fabiano Caruana, 0
Round 12 - Draw - Magnus Carlsen, 1/2 - Fabiano Caruana, 1/2
Results: Magnus Carlsen 6.5 - Fabiano Caruana 5.5
I think Snarlsen will win the WC with one win in round 4 and possibly two wins if Fabio has to start playing for a win and throws caution to the win.
Of course anything can happen in a match, but one prediction I am confident in making is that the WC match will be a dull affair along the lines of Karjakin/Snalrsen. Lots of dry theory and lots of draws.
Another possibility is that Snarlsen might play to draw all the games to take advantage of Fabio's feeble play in faster time controls.
My final thoughts on the WC is 12 games is too short to decide the WC. It should a minimum of 16 games. I hope if we get a new FIDE president they start to make some changes to bring some integrity back to the game.

What's this "Snarlsen" stuff?
All people who think Fabi will win, come to this forum!!

My prediction, and I hope i am wrong because I hate draws:
First two rounds, Fabi WINS one and Magnus WINS one. Followed by NINE DRAWS, and then FABI WINS in the last round.
But it really doesn't matter to me as long as FABI WINS!

exactly! As long as Fabi wins, I am fine with how everything turns out - even if all the games they play start with a Berlin!
Caruana will win decisively
