8 head to head ties marked Round 2 of our FA Cup competition.
We had 1 match on Saturday and that was Match 4 as Barnsley beat Norwich 1-0. The only players who predicted a Barnsley win were minxymartin and MaxQPR for 3 points
On to Match 3 and Burnley comfortably beat Fulham 3-0. SydneyR, ranger-boy, ashqpr and myself get 3 points for predicting the Burnley win, whilst CutePR, ashqpr, MaxQPR, e17hoop, Ghost, MCM Hoop and Rosco Bosco all got the 31-45 first goal time
Match 2 had more points on offer with Brentford losing 3-1 to Leicester - a scoreline that ashqpr and SydneyR got exact in a superb prediction for 6 points. The only players who didn't get 3 points for predicting the Leicester win were minxymartin and ranger-boy.
Nobody had Bech Sørensen as first scorer and nobody had the early first goal time.
That left the main Match 1 with 16 points on offer as Manchester United took on Liverpool.
stoatey, MCM Hoop, LurkR, jalfrezi, CutePR, ranger-boy, Rosco Bosco, Ghost, myself, minxymartin and SydneyR all had Man Utd to win
e17hoop, QPRBex and LurkR had Salah as first scorer for 6 points. SydneyR, CutePR, ashqpr, minxymartin and Rosco Bosco had Rashford whilst stoatey, jalfrezi, ranger-boy, MCM Hoop and myself had Fernandes for back up points
SydneyR and ranger-boy had the 16-30 first goal time. Only QPRBex and MaxQPR had Liverpool to score first.
It was incredibly tight with 7 players scoring 10 so goal difference was important and there were 9 bookings in the 4 games.
First off onenightfever forgot to enter so e17hoop effectively gets a bye into the Quarter Finals. e17hoop was the 3rd highest scorer anyway so deserves to go through.
SydneyR was the most comfortable winner, top scoring with 16 to see off Ghost who scored 9.
ashqpr beat me by 3 points, the same margin that QPRBex beat minxymartin . LurkR was 2 points ahead of ranger-boy to make it through.
So 3 ties went down to goal difference - remember a closer goal difference is better!
stoatey and jalfrezi were the lowest scorers with 7 apiece but stoatey was only 2 away, Jalfrezi Rs was 7 away and so stoatey sneaks through.
It was closer between MCM Hoop and CutePR. CutePR was only 2 away but MCM Hoop was even closer going for 10 to be 1 away and so MCM Hoop is through, avenging defeat in the recent League Cup semi finals.
It was even closer again between Rosco Bosco and MaxQPR as they both had the same goal difference - both 3 away. That meant we had to count back to their score in Round 1 and that takes Rosco Bosco through as he scored 25 in Round 1 compared to MaxQPR's 6. So the League Cup champion from last month MaxQPR is out.
Here is how Round 2 ended up:
Quarter Finals:
Round 3 - the Quarter Finals - sees the remaining 8 players going head to head again. As mentioned before Round 2 the winner of Tie 1 plays the winner of Tie 5, 2 plays 6, 3 plays 7 and 4 plays 8. This is the same pre-set draw order as previous cups.
That leaves us with the following Quarter Final line up with 8 players still in with a chance of getting 10 bonus points for the QPR Prediction League:
Tie 1: Rosco Bosco Vs LurkR
Tie 2: ashqpr Vs QPRBex
Tie 3: stoatey Vs e17hoop
Tie 4: SydneyR Vs MCM Hoop
The points all reset to zero. Round 1/2 score and previous goal difference only come into play going forward if there is no separating the players in the next round.
The Quarter Finals take place midweek on 9th/10th February so only 2 weeks away. The Quarter Finals will be open to enter once the match dates have been set.
