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.

Anyone on here with advice on h2h league tactics? Next opponent has fairly similar team with main differentials up front silva Milner and Kane. I have Eriksen, Downing and Bony.
Was all set to make 1 conservative transfer in Defence ( OR round 20k) but in the back of my mind I wonder about squeezing it by getting my team even more similar to his!!
