This evening we reveal who has made it through to the fourth round of our open to all Fantasy Premier League cup competition.

For this latest contest there are more than £1,000 worth of prizes for UK based entrants courtesy of our partner FanDuel, as well as £350 in Amazon vouchers to the top three managers at the end of the competition.

In addition, the highest scoring manager each round will win a £30 FanDuel credit, with the four next highest scores earning a £10 credit.

The third round saw all three of our remaining champions depart, which means there will be a new name on the trophy at the end of the competition.

Last year’s winner I Casillas Winning was beaten by Allezlechef 71 to 55, Gribude lost to Cok3y5murf and MCH failed to get the better of community regular Rhinos.

The highest scoring managers of the round and recipients of a £30 FanDuel credit are Bacuna Matata and Pinky Unites, who both brought in a haul of 104 points.

Those who win a £10 FanDuel credit for stellar Gameweek scores are: NUFC Fifer and Raul Seleccion, who accrued 102 points; Δημητρης Καραμπουρνιωτης, who earned 98 points; and TeaM McNaCe and BC1, who both notched 97 in Gameweek 14.

Of these Gameweek 14 titans, Bacuna Matata is the highest ranked manager left in the competition. His impressive tally takes him up to 111 in the rankings and a round four clash with fplbet.

Raul Selecion is just behind, in 112th place, and takes on Fat B*d in the next stage of the tournament.

The community regular who has drawn the short straw to face another form manager, Pinky Unites, in round four is Tommy J.

The Scoutcast’s last representative, Andy85wsm, bows out with his score of 73 proving no match for Anuliz’s 94 points.

Two other members of the Fantasy Football Scout moderator and contributor team, GreenWindmill and Stilicho, also leave, after being beaten by Archie and lowlifegimpe respectively.

That leaves TorresMagic to fly the FFScout flag alone. He beat Isaaclun in round three and next takes on Zambhino10, who is ranked more than 100,000 places behind him, in this weekend’s tie.

Another encounter to keep an eye on is a dangerous looking Chelsea themed derby between Hazardous Blue and Hazardous to repeat.

The third round results can be found via this link, while the full fourth round draw can be found here.

      Next season. Rival has made 3 transfers.
      Have a guess what they were
      https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/team/3030891/event/14

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        Aguero and Bony to Kane+Costa and then something else to fund it?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 26 days ago

          Maybe. Payet out possibly.

    2. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      You got knocked out too? I lost by about 30 points

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        Scored 73 and opponent scored 94 🙂

        1. Bolivian Seaman
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 26 days ago

          93 here, sickening 🙂

            • 15 Years

            Ouch, that's even worse.

            1. Bolivian Seaman
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 26 days ago

              no my opponent got 93. He moved up 250,000 places too

  7. Syd.
    • 16 Years

    A dead rubber turned out to be a quite entertaining match

  8. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    There should be a huge prize for anyone who ever wins this twice. Odds must be lottery jackpotesque 🙂

    1. Mull

      Free entry to UFPL next season.

          This
          UFPL would be super interesting in times when there is an FPL template.

            • 14 Years

            They post an article with qualifying info on it. They'll be another one later in the season.

  9. WDT
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    As a Sanchez non-owner fearing that my buttocks might fuse from remaining permanently clenched over the coming weeks, I take heart from tonight's display. This reminds me he doesn't score a hatrick every game

    1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Indeed saving himself for the next prem game

    2. FAITHNOMORENO
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      he saved it for the weekend 😉

    3. LakhaneeFC
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Agreed. But he does do it once every 2 games 🙂

    4. Numb
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      There was some talk that he was limping when he came off. We can only hope.

    5. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      He was playing at 75% if that.

      1. WDT
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        Hmm. Unibuttock it is.

      2. Numb
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        75%? Flag 'im Mark.

      Wouldn't want to be down wind when you uncleanch.

  10. Sims
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    Pots 1 and 2 so far

    POT 1:

    Arsenal
    Leicester
    Barcelona
    Monaco
    Juventus
    Napoli
    Atletico

    POT 2:

    PSG
    Bayern Munich
    Man City
    Bayer Leverkusen
    Benfica
    Lyon/Sevilla
    Porto/Copenhagen

    You probably wouldn't be able to tell which pot was which by looking at the teams. Real/BVB to be decided

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      So City can face one of Monaco, Juventus, Napoli, Atletico

      1. I Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        And Real/Dortmund.

        1. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 26 days ago

          City won't fear any of them

    2. FAITHNOMORENO
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      pot1 leicester
      pot2 bayern

      that seems alright.

      1. Konig Luther
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        it's not pot1/2... it's teams who finish in 1st and teams who finish in 2nd

        1. FAITHNOMORENO
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 26 days ago

          I had that in mind too

        2. Sims
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 26 days ago

          That's pot 1 and pot 2

    3. Diva
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      What do you mean you wouldn't be able to tell? Leicester clearly indicate Pot 1. (Though I concede the presence of Arsenal in the same pot may muddy the water a bit.)

      1. Sims
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        I meant if u didn't know which teams topped the group and looked at the pots u wouldn't know which one was which

        1. Diva
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 26 days ago

          I was making a joke. 🙂

    4. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      All this talk of pot at this time of night....

  11. Epic Fail
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    The timing of these articles sometimes 😀

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Mark trying to tell us he is not asleep and has managed to avoid flagging sanchez

    2. Fred54
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Was just thiking the same thing. Well annoying.

  12. FAITHNOMORENO
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    arsenal just can't stop conceding.

  13. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    Arsenal top the group

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Wanderson, wonderful player!

  14. Gooner97
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    Please score PSG, I'd rather finish 2nd

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Pot 2 slightly easier just about and 2nd leg at Emirates is a huge bonus

  15. JIM BOB
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    So, what price is Perez? 🙂

    1. Deano
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Same as Walcott for the weekend according to Arsene.

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Not sure. Haven't checked.

    3. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      £7.8m and listed as a forward.

      1. JIM BOB
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        Thanks, I'm tempted to punt for one of my draft teams...

  16. Jazz!
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    Damn, opponent has my lovely front 3 and no Kun to scramble out.

    1. Numb
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Sounds more like his lovely front three 🙂

      1. Jazz!
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        He copied mine. 👿

  17. Diva
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    I found a great way to avoid FFS Cup disappointment: Don't enter!

      1. Diva
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        😀

        On a serious note, if the cup involved significant skill I would try.

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 26 days ago

          Might as well try anyway. The hardest part is filling out the form. After that you do nothing. You never know, you might win something. Unless you get drawn against me of course.

          1. Diva
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 26 days ago

            Then I'm guaranteed to win something! 😀

      You would have lost in Rd 1 😛

      1. Diva
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        Ha, don't be so sure. I survived in LMS that week. No, I would have gone out this week with a hit-less score of 90.

          1. Diva
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 26 days ago

            Well there you go, I sensibly saved two minutes by not completing the form!

            I avoided disappointment and saved time! 😀

      2. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ

    Midfield of

    Sanchez, Siggy, Firmino, Allen, Capoue

    A. Allen > Alli
    B. Firmino + Allen > Hazard + Phillips/

    1. Duffo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      B will be for a -4 hit

    2. Dasher0303
      • 9 Years

      B with Can

    1. Fred54
      • 10 Years

      I really want him but don't want to move to a -8 and get Pep'd.

      Rolling in points?

        Probably. 🙁

    Repost

    Already taken a hit, should I take another to get rid of Allen for Can, so it would be -8 overall?

    Can has the better fixtures and Allen might not even start, also if I don't play Allen, I would have to play either Evans or Barragan or Hojbjerg, which I don't want to do. Can also set to rise this week.

    1. Carlton P
      • 9 Years

      Err no

      5th time you've posted this. What's the answer you're waiting for? 😀

      1. Dasher0303
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        A convincing answer, I've only got about 3 responses altogether

    3. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      I think you can wait on that transfer

    4. nevins84
      • 13 Years

      Absolutely not...

  23. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    Anything worth a hit?

    0ft 3.7itb.

    Pickford
    Alonso / McAuley / Cedric
    Firmino / Hazard / Sigurðsson / Snodgrass
    Costa / Austin / Kane

    Heaton / Pieters / De Roon / Friend

    Next week maybe Snodgrass to Erikson

    1. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Snoddy to Eriksen is worth a hit even this week

      1. Here's Tom with the We…
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        Nah wait a week and go for him or even Alli. Although Hull are awful it's not too bad a fixture this week for Snoddy

        1. Cok3y5murf
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 26 days ago

          Hull are fixture proof to be poor. Snoddy gets no supply. 3.4 ITB. Why not be ambitious? Anywho, go with your gut.

          1. Cok3y5murf

    Playing a 3-5-2, Costa Kane up top
    I'm starting to realise that I have to drop one of my mids (wally/firm) to a 5.5ish mid

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years

      First world problems eh.

      1. Carlton P
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        It really is. I just know I will take wally out and then he will come good again.
        Wally > can/fer will sort my defence out big time

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 26 days ago

          I'd be inclined to wait a week if possible.

      I'd drop Wally if you have Sanchez, maybe to Can or Fer or Phillips.

      Can will resume his deeper role with Lallana back.

      Fernandinho's gay and Yaya went dogging?

        That was so forced. 😀

      Yep, the former playing in the pivot though. Delph is apparently fit and is his only worry.

    Do you guys believe its worth bringing in either Hazard or Alonso for a hit? Already own Costa and the transfers would be:

    Simpson/Holebas -> Alonso
    or
    Snoddy -> Hazard

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Get Alonso

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Don't expect Alonso to pay off the hit immediately Long term maybe.

      1. Jazz!
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 26 days ago

        Probably will immediately tbh haha.

    3. Deano
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Hazard more important than Alonso.

    4. nevins84

      Hazard

  30. TOPCAT1960
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 26 days ago

    Would you do this ?

    Barry > Can
    Rondon > Wilson

    For a total -12 hit

    Have Sanchez, Haz,Firm, Cap Costa,Kane

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 26 days ago

      Nah

    2. Deano
      • 13 Years

    3. Differentiator
      • 10 Years

      Might boost my rank 😉 so yeah!

      In all seriousness, your post has to be a joke...?
