After last week's high-scoring week, I wonder whether it can be repeated this week, with 12 of the games coming from the FA Cup, 8 of which are contested by teams from different divisions. The dodgy weather means there is a good chance that some games will be postponed.
If you have a postponed game (or games), please just repost your three choices, including the games that are not postponed. This is much easier for me to process than comments like 'instead of the xx game, can I have y v z etc?' Your reposted predictions will override your original predictions (which is always the case). Of course, if you pick Sunday games and they are called off after the Saturday games, you are stuffed. Also, remember that the score at the end of normal time in Cup games counts, not the score after any extra time. So, without trying to sound too much like an old moaner, good luck this week and good luck especially to those minnows involved in Prediction Knock-Out Cup replays. The draw for the 2nd Round will take place next Monday, as well as the Johnstone Paint Prediction Cup 1st Round draw for those already out of the main competition. As usual, pick the three games that can't fail to end as you imagine.
If you missed the results from Week 19, the Cup 1st Round scores or details of the replays, you can find that info
