This afternoon, we roll out the fifth round draw of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup X, as sponsored by Paddy Power, and take a look back at the key events during Boxing Day’s fourth round ties.

There were three centurians in round four, who managed to go through into the fifth round in style with impressive three-digit points totals. United Nations was the fourth round’s top scorer, with his tally of 103 earning him £25 of free bets with Paddy Power.

Gimli son of Gloin’s score of 101 was more than enough to see off Dez and earn a fifth round tie with 1966 was a great year. Meanwhile, Luke Costello’s perfect century got the better of Rich Davies in the fourth round.

Granville also marches on, with his 71 score enough to take him through to the fifth round, where he faces Mediocre Men.

Other key fifth round match ups include Mata Is The Juan, who has drawn the short straw and faces the competition’s highest ranked manager Never Trust Lukaku, who sits in eighth overall. Laurel Hill faces United Nations, while Triggy takes on the Mutant Ninja Skrtels.

In total, 14 of the 64 fifth round competitors are in the top 1,000, further underlying how tough this tournament is during its later stages.

The full list of fourth round results can be found here while the fifth 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.

      1. Big4FPL
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        For -4? At 5k rank so could be worth it to keep up...or it could wait a week for free, in case he's rested?

        1. Woy
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

    Austin Costa Benteke

    Panti - Siggy Wisdom Bertrand

    1. The_Socca_Philosopha

    PS. Sakho will drop tonight and chambers wont play

    1. Woy
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Tekkers isnt essential but he's an outstanding differential with good fixtures

    2. deshawn7
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Sakho to Kane and save 1FT for the next GW. Wish i had 2FTs too!

      I'd say having either Toure or Silva is essential

    3. Every Dog Has Its Day
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Ok

  20. Lyonnais
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Hart / Elliot
    Baines, Azpilicueta, Hutton / Wisdom, Yun
    Sanchez, Yaya (VC), Hazard, Downing / Sigurdsson
    Costa, Austin (C), Kane

    2 FT, 0.1 ITB

    I'm thinking about Baines ---> Zabaleta and save the other FT.
    Or do you think Yaya + Silva is the way to go ?

    1. The_Socca_Philosopha
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Baines --> Zabs and save the other FT

    2. deshawn7
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Baines to Zaba and save FT. Keep yaya until he gets the YC or goes ACON which by then you should be making space for aguero back in mid Jan

  21. Tinmen
    • 12 Years
