FFS Cup

Fantasy Football Scout Cups – Fourth & Fifth Round Draws

The competition in our Fantasy Football Scout Cup contests is intensifying as we enter the final stages, with just 64 teams remaining in both.

The results from the fourth round of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup went to form. The two top-ranked managers – FPL Poker Player in 179 and Elvarus (placed 111th) both earned wins to progress.

Added to that, our four former Cup winners – Mark, Ninja Fit Saints, Gribude and Sleepysi – also found passage into the next round. However, the latter needed to turn to his superior rank (23,302) to edge past MelvinMbabazi as they battled to an 81-point tie.

But something has to give in the next round with our draw creating a stand out head-to-head as Mark faces up to FPL Poker Player over Gameweek 20. In a classic battle of “KaneRemain” vs “KaneExit”, Mark will fancy his chances of a giant-killing of sorts if the Spurs striker can deliver as his captain.

Former FPL winner Tom Fenley remains in the mix with a fifth-round tie against Tap, while the current leader of the Fantasy Football Scout Moderators and Contributors Leauge, Az, will be the hot favourite in his tie with Ibralicious, who currently ranks some 163,000 places below him.

The results from the Fantasy Football Scout fourth round can be found here, while the draw for the fifth round – played out over Gameweek 20 – is here.

The Members Cup is also down to the final 64 with Mark also making progress here. He’ll face John Nerdelbaum in the next round after squeaking past Toffee777 by just four points. Mark is the final staff member remaining after Paul suffered a defeat to No pressure jose by a nine-point margin.

There are two remaining managers ranking inside the top 2000, with Falcon (1985th) and N@th (1965th) perhaps installed as favourites for the trophy. However, the latter now has a fifth-round tussle with MSalah – ranked 7055 – which looks tight and is arguably the tie of the round.

You can view the full results from the third round of Members Cup can be found here, while the draw for the fourth round – also played out over Gameweek 20 – is here.

      Not B, Coutinho could rest vs Swansea.

      I'd save to have 2 for blank and hokey cokey Kane

    2. King Kun Ta
      • 8 Years

      And keep Richarlison?

      Will Holgate be nailed? Was on the bench last GW.... Replace by who?

    How about this W.C team
    Adrian Elliot
    Jones Ottamendi Christensen Kenny Robertson
    Salah Mata Arni Silva Sterling
    Firmino Kane Depoitre

      Looks good except Mata. He doesn't get enough minutes.

      1. OLEgend
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 4 months ago

        He seems to be getting enough minutes in league especially at home,on penalties too

          Pogback and Lingard has been great, if you cant get Pogba I'd rather Lingard than Mata

          1. OLEgend

            Mata to Lingard allows me to do Silva to Coutinho, then need to find best replacement for Robertson then in that price range.

              Coutinho is risky. He might go to Barca in January?

    Save FT and play Pope (United)/Elliot (CITY) or do Elliot --> Adrian (Bournemouth)

    1. SkeletONv01

    Defence is Pope Azpi Jones Mee Daniels Masuaku. Is it worth 2FT to do Azpi and Daniels to Christiansen and Otamendi? Or should I just do Daniels to Kenny

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 4 months ago
