The slightly truncated Gameweek 26 will see 256 Fantasy managers go head-to-head in round two of the Members Paddy Power Cup II. The draw has been made, and the full set of 128 fixtures can be viewed right here.

Reigning champion Kippax Kikkers‘ second assignment is against Sounerous. It appears that our holder been biding his time waiting for the opportunity to defend his crown, after notching a season-high rank of 81,072nd in the world last week.

The Scout Contributor contingent has significantly dwindled since the qualifying round, but there are still some representatives in the mix. Jonty takes on joe90, Big Dunc has drawn Gaffer john, Pure Olivia is up against Kissthebadge!, and Anorak faces Bedok. Good luck guys.

All ties will be played over Gameweek 26, and the results will be posted a day or two after the Gameweek has concluded.

    Hi all,

    Its been a while since I've posted on here but I have been reading and havent seen much over the past few days about a replacement for Valencia.

    For me the obvious replacement is Mata/Bale although I dont want either of them.

    Is Young a bad idea?

    Anyone else worth considering?

      I have 2 players currently in mind... Mata or Beausejour.

      The plus with Beausejour is that he'll be playing GW29 - Mata might not be.

        Beausejour seems interesting, returns are good in his past 2. And fixtures look good till week 30+.

        Yeah, he'd certainly be a slight risk / punt, but for 4 GWs, I don't mind chancing it.

        Thanks, I sold Bale a while ago when the fixtures started going downhill for themand i dont like his fixtures at all for the next few week. He hasnt done well in the past few games for them and I know it was a one off but when the team scores 5 and he has nothing to do with it I would be very disappointed.

      Mata - good for home games, terrible away. If you get him, prepare to bench him for away games.
      Nani/Young - juries still out on fitness and form, but both good punts if you are chasing
      Yaya - this is

        Having said that, Mata did score his 1st away goal last night. Perhaps a sign of things to come 😉

        Out of those 3, i'd be sorely tempted by Mata for atleast the next 3 games, as a Valencia replacement

          Come on, man, Mata only scored because of a terrible defensive error.

          He is a horrible fantasy prospect. Jonty pointed out how terrible he is on the road, and apart from the occasional explosion, he is pretty poor at home, too. Chelsea is as poor going forward as they are defending right now: stay clear.

          Gotta be Bale. Yaya if you haven't got three city players.

        ...my top choice to replace him.
        Yes, obviously Bale if you don't have him....he's a steady eddy with pts.

      Will be explained in the press conference this afternoon, but i'm sure it's nothing. Like one of the United journo's said.. could be doing extra in the gym, could be on the toilet. Plenty of reasons.

    Asked before and didn't get a reply. Ryan Taylor - assuming the NEW back 4 is Santon, Collo, Williamson, Simpson, how likely is Raylor to start at RM this w/e?

    News that all the rescheduled matches may possibly played during GW29 is annoying. That would've been a chance for me to actually get a decent score above the average. There's still hope I guess!

      I think if Chelsea bt Brum then the Chelsea vs City game will definitely be off as they'll be playing the replay midweek.

        Actually, forget that. I mean if they beat Brum, it'll be off as they'll be playing in the cup... I'm not totally sure who will play and who won't yet.

      1) with shotton its always a doubt. If u have the opportunity get him out but if u dont sub him.
      2)Aguero would be my bet but Ba has decent chance of scoring.

      Shotton started the FA cup match, which with Pulis would usually mean no. And I would go with Aguero C
