• Unsophisticated Prediction Tiers Season 60 Cup Quarterfinals

    From Futbolmetrix@21:1/5 to All on Sun Dec 15 22:49:20 2024
    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 2024-12-18, 23:59 GMT
    - Pick one team from each of the two matches.

    *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

    *ATTENTION: NEW RULE*: If the away player doesn't pick any team before
    his/her deadline, the home player will be represented by the team that
    achieves the best outcome out of his/her two picked teams.
    If the home player doesn't pick any team before his deadline, the away
    player can pick two teams (one from each match), and he/she will be
    represented by the team that achieves the best outcome out of his/her
    two picked teams. If nobody picks a team, teams are assigned
    randomly.)

    Quarterfinals:

    QF1: 1. Futbolmetrix - Homer Simpson
    Manchester United 1 - Bournemouth X2
    Lecce 1X - Lazio 2

    QF2: 4. The Doctor - Jesper Lauridsen

    Eintracht Frankfurt 1 - Mainz X2


    QF4: 3. MH - Werner Pichler

    Juve.

    Is that a legal pick? Depending on the rulings, my pick is either
    Villa or Villa & Juve.

    It was a partially valid pick. I take your pick to be Villa and Juve.
    Since Villa won, you are through to the semis, the exact score is yet to
    be determined.

    All the big Cup hitters go through, as well as little FMUPTFC, who will
    surely go out in the next round.

    Semifinal announcement to follow.
