Just 16 ties to look at as the Fantasy Football Scout Cup III, sponsored by Paddy Power, goes midweek for the first time. To see exactly what the draw has thrown out, click here. As you’ll seem, there are still plenty of big names left challenging for the title…

Last week’s top-scorer Gazzamania has a tough match-up against DRP, who sits just 5 points behind him overall.

Soup or Man will be looking to continue his good form (five straight green arrows), when he takes on 100k+ ranked Back to Back Ballacks.

Another recognisable name in the fifth round is Anorak, who has his work cut out against a highly-ranked opponent olive.

After eliminating Granville, Chris81 will once again have to beat the odds to overcome top 8k ranked DaFoe22. Another Scout killer, tippman, is still in the mix and takes on Unwillingplayer.

Site favourite bill badger is a huge underdog this week, as he has been handed a tie with round three top-scorer and 12th in the world, Ann_der_roo.

Ann_der_roo is clearly the highest-ranked participant in round five, but the unfortunate title of lowest-ranked goes to Manif, who is the true underdog of the competition. Sitting at a season-best 328,067th in the world, he’ll have to continue to upset the apple cart to see off atx1303, who is ranked a good 100k+ places above him.

All fixtures are to be played over gameweek 12 (starting tonight). Good luck to all 32 fantasy managers left in the competition, and remember that a free £25 bet, courtesy of Paddy Power, is available as always to the top-scorer this round.

    My team as it stands guys (after a 4 point hit):

    Foster (Jaask)
    Cole, Coleman, Simpson (Samba, Dann)
    Malouda, Fabregas, Albrighton, N'Zogbia (Nani)
    Drogba(c), Davies, Carroll

    How does that look? Is it worth starting Nani in case he makes an appearance? Would be at the expense of Albrighton who has a tasty fixture. Cheers guys

    Afternoon all,

    This is my team for the next few gameweeks. Trouble is i can’t decide on a midfielder sub, he has to rotate with Carroll & Nzogbia, the best choice is Barton but obviously doesn’t rotate well with Carroll. Other suggestions welcome!

    Robinson, (Carson)
    A. Cole, Konchesky, Mummy, (Dann, Simpson)
    Fab, VDV, Nani, N’Zogbia, (Barton)
    Drogba, Carroll, Tevez
