FFS Paddy Power Cup X – Sixth Round Draw

This evening, we roll out the sixth round draw of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup X, as sponsored by Paddy Power, and look back at the conclusion to the fifth round ties.

Jimbojunior emerged as the top scoring manager in the Gameweek 19 match-ups, with a score of 54 points earning him £25 worth of free bets with Paddy Power and a round six showdown with Dub. Another high scorer was Mediocre Men, whose tally of 53 points proved too much for Granville’s score of 35.

Among the remaining 32 managers who made it through to the sixth round, as many as 13 are in the top 1,000. Never Trust Lukaku continues to be the competition’s highest ranked manager – he sits in 10th overall and faces Aaron Ramessi in round six.

Other notable round six ties are round four’s highest scorer United Nations, who faces HVT. Meanwhile, Gimli son of Gloin takes on Luke Costello, who is 42nd overall and the second highest ranked manager remaining in the tournament.

The full list of fifth round results can be found here, while the sixth round draw in full can be found here.

Good luck to those involved in the weekend’s action. In the meantime, though, if you’re looking for more information on the Scout Cup schedule and prizes available, click this link for a more thorough rundown.

    Would you just save a transfer here and use my 2FT's next week to ship Bony & Yaya? Seems the sensible thing to do... Although I really want Sterling this weekend.

      Save

      I'll be doing the same with my FT & shipping YYT & Bony next week.

      Can easily live without Sterling, didn't do a great deal against Swansea.

    --City v Sunderland is generally a high scoring game but Pantilmillion might have something to say about that. I really want Silva but City's fixtures get a bit sour after that game. I'll accept I missed the boat.

    What are people's strategies for the WC? I might save the FT this week to get rid of Bony & Yaya in one go next week for Kane & Sterling then use the WC later on in the window maybe when Aguero's back?

      I'm keeping Yaya so will have 2 FTs next week.

      I'm pretty much playing it by ear. If things go really sour then I'll use it otherwise I'll try and hold until late on or when Aguero is back

    Hi suggestions for this team and captain would be appreciated. I know bony has to go but I was thinking of saving the ft until next week. Who should I trade him for and should I do it this week?

    Guzan (mannone)
    Clichy azpricuila zabeleta (Hutton) (drummett)
    Silva(v) Sanchez hazard (c) downing (Boyd)
    Costa bony Austin

    1ft.

    Is bony a good bet against qpr? Everyone seems to be jumping ship now. Am I missing something?

    1. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Limited gametime, non-existent against Pool, blanks, other options

      I'm keeping for QPR tho

  13. Boodey

    -------Hutton - Terry - Zabaleta -Baines--------
    --- Hazard - Eriksen - Sanchez -Silva --------
    -------- Kane - Austin - Costa -----------------

    Subs: Elliot, Wisdom, Wanyama

    1 FT, 0,5 ITB

    1) Bench Terry (tot), Kane (CHE) or Hutton (CRY)?
    2) Transfer Eriksen to Sterling or save?
