• Unsophisticated Prediction Tiers Season 48: Cup Round of 16

    From Futbolmetrix@24:150/2 to rec.sport.soccer on Sun Oct 17 15:31:33 2021
    What to do
    -----------

    Look at the fixtures below: do you play home or away? In any case:
    remember that it's single-leg, and a draw qualifies the team with the X
    on its side.

    *Home*
    - Before Wednesday 2021-10-20, 11:59 GMT
    - Pick one team from each of the two matches, in order of preference

    *Away*
    - After Wednesday (or even sooner, if the home player has picked his
    teams) and before kickoff of the first match
    - Pick one of the teams not picked by your opponent (if he hasn't picked
    any team, you have free choice)
    - Their opponents will represent your opponent

    (If the away player doesn't pick any team before his deadline, the home
    player will be represented by his preferred team. If nobody picks a
    team, teams are assigned randomly.)

    Bochum = 0 FS picks
    Eintracht = 4, including wretched Durm
    Rennes = 3, including ungodly Doku
    Strasbourg = 1

    So, Watson, I pick Strasbourg.

    You couldn't put the Wolfsburg match among the Lassie

    Lassie is a saint and she prefers nice zebras to vicious
    snakes. I say that she votes:

    1. Southampton
    2. Juventus

    Inter.

    I will not have access to internet from next sunday to sunday
    October 30th.
    So I unfortunately have to withdraw for next round :(...

    Hope you have a good break. You can always draw up a contingency plan (such as: pick the two home teams, pick the teams ranked higher up in the table, pick the two teams that come first in alphabetical order...)

    milivella chickens out of facing me in the QFs. ixion's elaborate contingent plan unfortunately is for naught. After fighting for the wooden spoon in the league, the BOTs make a comeback in the cup.

    So the quarterfinals are:

    Werner - The Doctor
    Jesus Petry - Lassie
    MH - Jesper Lauridsen
    Futbolmetrix - Homer
