also @Dan that looks really fucking unlucky to lose that, to be honest.

Plzen top of the league. Played 18. Only conceded 6 goals. Top of the league. Top scorers in the league.

Couldn't score and end up losing against a side who have only scored 17 and are 2nd from bottom and lost the most games in the league so far xD

Saying that, Jihlava actually beat 2nd place in their last game. Maybe next year Jihlava will win the league.

Jihlava had only lost 0-1 against the second placed team in the league before facing Plzen, and Plzen had drew 0-0 against 8th two matches back. So I'd say that was kinda risky. Still, your jinxed.. yeah. If you could tell me we won't win the WC i'd be so happy mate. xD

The only thing risky about that was the fact they'd played in Europe in the week. There was absolutely nothing to suggest that it was going to end anything but a resounding Plzen win. Incredible that they've lost it. Jihlava were 16/1!

if Jihlava only lost 0-1 to second place the week before and your team (Pilzen) drew 0-0 against a midtable team a week or two back, then i certainly wouldn't be certain they'd win. If we were to put in it numbers, i'd say there was a 60/65% chance Plzen would win, not more than. And like i said i wouldn't have chosen them this week because of that, obviously most people wouldn't have expected them to lose, but a draw was not a far-fetched prediction if you ask me.

Looks like this game was postponed today? Might want to pick another unless it gets rescheduled for this week.

Alright, change it to KF Shkendija against Pobeda

I'm not having anyone try and tell me there was logic in Plzen not winning. That's surely an automatic disqualification.

In light of the weather in Scotland and me potentially not getting online to pick again in the event of Celtic's game getting cancelled, I'm placing my insurance pick now.

If Celtic v Morton is postponed tomorrow I will go with Ludogorets to beat Septemvri Sofia in Bulgaria.

Torino game has now been postponed along with the rest of the Serie A fixtures. In light of the circumstances I don't think it's unfair to count this as a "void" week for @Bluewolf and keep him into the next round. Unless he feels confident enough in another fixture today?

Unless anyone has an issue with this and speaks up, I'm putting @Bluewolf into Round four.

Given  the sudden and sad loss that's caused this I appreciate that.. To be fair to everyone else involved I will change my fixture and go for an Arsenal win over Brighton today..

This week we say farewell to three players. Arsenal's dismal run continues, taking down @Azeem98 who obviously got bored of the competition and bailed by backing them to beat Manchester City, and @Bluewolf, who deserves an honourable mention for making a new pick despite being offered a free pass for the week after the Torino game was postponed. @Dan, meanwhile can consider himself well and truly fucked over, as Czech league leaders Viktoria Plzen went into their game with a 100% winning record at home in the league against relegation battlers Jihlava, losers in every single away league game so far this season, only for the visitors to take a 1-0 win and inflict Plzen's first league defeat of the season.

 

As for our survivors, I'm struggling to pick a "jammy win of the week" as all six remaining players made it through this round fairly untroubled. 

 

@RandoEFC @Berserker @Smiley Culture @nudge @Eco @Lucas - congratulations on your survival into the fourth round of the competition. You can now make your pick from any team who plays between Monday 5th March and Sunday 11th March, provided you haven't already relied on them to carry you before.

 

This week, I'll be playing my Paris Saint Germain card, as they face bottom club Metz in Ligue 1 next Saturday.
