    While we wait for the MD2 results...This week it's Serie A that
    doesn't have enough balanced matches, so we go to France again.

    Unsophisticated Prediction Tiers Season 66 - League ESP/ITA, Match Day
    3 (2026/8/29-30)

    What to do
    -----------

    Look at the fixtures below: do you play home or away?

    *Home*
    - Before Thursday (= before 2026/8/26, 23:59 GMT)
    =- Pick one team from each of the two matches

    *Away*
    =- After Wednesday (or even sooner, if the home player has picked
    their teams) and before kickoff of the first match on Saturday
    2026/8/29
    - Pick one of the teams not picked by your opponent (if they haven't
    picked any team, you have free choice)
    =- their opponents will represent your opponent

    *ATTENTION*: 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

    I'm back, hopefully---I apologize to UPT gamemaster and opponents,
    fantasy scouts, etc. I am trying to catch up quickly, so while I'm
    enjoying a lot what I am reading, I am not commenting on old posts.
    However, this is something I _must_ ask:

    has anyone ever asked a question Werner wasn't able to answer?
