• Unsophisticated Prediction Tiers Season 53 Cup Finals

    From Futbolmetrix@21:1/5 to All on Sun Apr 30 15:53:48 2023
    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 2023-05-03, 23:59 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.)

    The Doctor:

    The Doctor - milivella
    Maritimo 1X - Rio Ave 2
    Go Ahead Eagles 1 - Groningen X2


    Groningen and Rio

    Fun fact: the name of the first (and only) club I started, back on NYE
    1988, was Eagles.

    So yes, I pick Go Ahead Eagles.

    (Be gentle, Doc.)

    Hey, If someone is looking for a balanced league to use for UPT matches,
    you could do worse than the Canadian Premier League. 12 matches played
    so far and seven of them have been draws. Top of the table 5 points
    (from three games) bottom 2 points.

    I don't know how this league will do long term, but some players from
    the league have certainly moved on to MLS or abroad (Mo Farsi, Lukas McNaughton, Joel Waterman, Dominic Zator for example), and some to the
    Canadian National team (McNaughton and Waterman).
