2. Who Wins At King's Landing?

HBO

With Miguel Sapochnik back in the driving seat for episode 5 - the penultimate episode of the entire show(!) - we're getting another big battle. Daenerys, her last dragon, Jon Snow, and whatever remains of their allied forces will be going up against Cersei's army, including the Golden Company.

Whether it's as big as The Long Night remains to be seen (although Emilia Clarke did hype it up as being bigger), but we can at least safely assume it's going to be reasonably epic. The question is which side will be left standing when the dust settles?

Cersei seemingly has the numbers, but Daenerys has a dragon, which, even with scorpions, is an unequalled destructive force. It's all to play for in the game of thrones.
