I think I'm through to the next round too. Currently leading 74-57 and my team's Martinez plays against my opponent's Wilson.

I'm assuming I'm through, unless Keinan Davis scores 55+ points on Saturday...

One of the few positives in an underwhelming round - through to the next round and the cup dream lives on :)

We ever had a season where 2 people in Fiso are drawn to play each other ?

That would be fun that

Your opponent has Dias holding Tielemans stones and that is a sending off offence, being knocked out is a bit extreme imo.

I've been drawn vs someone ranked 30k. We've a fair few of the same players but he has no City whereas I've got triple(2 def and Gundog) and he has 2 Villa def so clean sheet for City and not for Villa could be the difference.

Next round drawn.

Got an active manager from SA who is 2.6m OR. Not a bad team, likes a hit and only needs to sort KDB out (I don’t own but do have Vardy to sort). Bruno and Rashford a good pairing for them this week

Gonna be a tough one I think.

Not sure what to make of my chances of progressing to round 5. In theory it should be straightforward as I'm up against a dead team who will have no captain, and will start with 10.

They are however, strong in the GK and defensive positions with Pope/Tarkowski/TAA/Robertson/Maguire/Dunk. CS for 3 of Burnley, Liverpool, Man Utd and Brighton and I could be facing an uphill battle to qualify.

I've got a very balanced game in the next round. TV are equal. He has KDB & Zouma, I have Vardy & Zouma.

Up against a Singaporean next, OR 2.3m, TV 101.5.

Made seven transfers in GW5 but failed to play WC. No KdB, Vardy or Aguero to deal with.

Could be a tough one.

My opponent is no push over and has an OR 300k better than mine. Has used his WC in DGW19 equalling my 112 points but has KDB and Vardy. The rest of his starting team looks good but the bench is poor. I should start this with a -4 advantage but hopefully it will be close.

Through. Next opponent has no KDB or Vardy, so no obvious transfer. He doesn't have any Man City players though.

I have drawn an active player and we have a similar team (snap 9) I have taken hits that I should have taken for the DGW and didnt :shock:
Hoping that my TV will give me an advantage. :)

Up against a guy who has 8 players the same as my team. I have double City defence - Stones/Dias while he just has Cancelo. Could be the different if City keep it tight. He also has Son while I have Kane.

By far and away going to be the toughest round so far. He's barely used any chips so hope he doesn't waste one trying to squeeze through here. His team value is 102.7 compared to my 105.3 so just need to hope I have enough.

Barely went through last round after a failed BB on my side.
This one is s gonna be tough.
Very similar teams and ranks but I like his team more than mine. Differencies are. MY Mccarthy, James, Coufal, and Kane to HIS Martinez, Diaz, Justin and whoever he brings instead of DeBruyne.
I also have 4m in the bank but I dont see any transfer worth the hit this week.

Also against an active player with quite a nice team actually. Only 3 players in common (Stones, Bruno, Bamford). He arguably has the better frontline (Kane & Antonio to my DCL & Wilson). Could be a tight one

Up against a Singaporean OR 3.1m, his team isn't too bad, we both have Kane and Son, though he has no Man City coverage. Should qualify.

My oppo played his WC to sort his team while i took a hit. I thought I was dead & buried but my Cancello v his Stones & Dias has given me a sneaky chance.
Scores tied.
Mendy / Justin / Salah / Cavani vs Martinez / ----- / Grealish / Kane

leading 37 from 3 v 33(-4) from 5.
We both have Bruno captain and I have all his prime players covered so it comes down to my +8, Areola, Chilwell, Robertson, Grealish, Calvert Lewin v Justin, Maddison, Neves :)

Leading 44 from 6 Vs 25 from 4. His is otherwise a very good team and many similarities to mine, including Bruno captain.

In fact, it's already my Son, Pope and 19 points Vs Martinez, Aina, Mount and Lookman.
