8 players with 4 matches of predictions between them and one of the 4 semi final places.... who would make it through?
The action started on Tuesday with Matches 1 to 3. Match 1 saw Chelsea see off Liverpool which stoatey, myself, LurkR and qprcammitch predicted but nobody went for 2-0
minxymartin was the only player to predict the 0-15 first goal time and also picked up a back up point for going with Barkley as first scorer which was a good call!
Only kingfisher, LurkR and QPRBex didn't get the point for predicting Chelsea would score first.
Match 2 was West Brom falling 3-2 to Newcastle and what a prediction from qprcammitch who nailed to rare 3-2 score to get the full 6 points, a superb prediction. I was the only other player who went for Newcastle to win.
QPRBex got Phillips as a scorer for a back up point and along with kingfisher and minxymartin got the 31-45 first goal time.
Sheffield United defeated Reading away from home 2-1 in Match 3 and that was exactly predict by LurkR. Everybody else went for Sheffield United with the wrong score for 3 points each.
minxymartin was again the only player to predict the very early goal time for another 3 points and overall he was 8 point clear of his opponent kingfisher at this stage so already through with only 6 points left to play for in Match 4.
Everybody went for a Man City win in Match 4 which meant there could only be 3 points gained by whoever got a correct score.
In the ties left to be settled stoatey was 2 points behind LurkR so needed Man City to win 2-0 to sneak the tie. e17hoop was 3 points behind QPRBex so needed City to win 4-1 to take it to goal difference and likewise I was 3 away from qprcammitch so required a 3-1 City win to go through on goal difference. It of course ended 1-0 so there were no changes in the ties
That means that kingfisher, stoatey, e17hoop and myself all exit at the Quarter Final stage.
Here is how the Quarter Finals shaped up:
Semi Finals:
Round 4 - the Semi Finals - sees the remaining 4 players going head to head again. As mentioned before the Quarter Finals took place the winner of Tie 1 will be against the winner of Tie 4 and the winner of Tie 2 is against the winner of Tie 3; the same format as previous cups.
That leaves us with the following Semi Final line up with 4 players still in with a chance of getting 10 bonus points for the final phase of the main QPR Prediction League:
Semi Final 1: LurkR Vs QPRBex
Semi Final 2: minxymartin Vs qprcammitch
The points all reset to zero. Round 1-3 scores and previous goal difference only come into play going forward if there is no separating the players in the next round.
The Semi Finals will be based on the FA Cup Quarter Finals in just over a fortnight.
It goes without saying that the final will be between the winner of each semi final!
