Second h2h question: Yes, No, No, x, Yes

There are still a few matches that haven't started yet, so there's still a chance to collect some points from those.
But looking at the points collected so far, the gap is honestly quite difficult to close in the remaining matches.

The second H2H was obviously going to be a tie and that’s good for us,.
The hope for you at the moment is for sinner to lose the title while Manchester United fines a way to defeat Liverpool. Looking at it right now, that looks really possible for a Liverpool defeat and I’ll be banking on Sinner not to lose as that, the one edge I’ve truly got to winning this round.

I’ve being overwhelmed by the urge to win games and I’m not exactly okay with how i started this season and division.

+1
Well... regardless of the remaining questions, the round is already decided in my favor. Several results came in flip mode, such as the H2H questions, where the difference between “Yes” and “No” was minimal. Better luck in the next round, Ochan......

That Leverkusen win sealed our second loss. I shouldn't have trusted Leipzig when there's not much urgency for them to gain points. GG cls63

I still need one more point to survive this week's LMS. Surely, Sinner and Team China will lock it in tomorrow.

Love the BSFL data darxiaomi, keep it coming.
Will give it a thorough read one day at work - that's when I have most free time Grin

Started from Div3, promoted instantly to Div1 in 2 seasons if I recall correctly but then got relegated in a season with terrible luck.
Got promoted instantly again - but that means I wasn't a Div1 member for 3 seasons.

Just had a very good round - both in my league H2H and in LMS. Trofo destroying it though.

I've read the whole thread from the last two pages and I couldn't find where anyone asked you this. We all know how you bribed your way up there. You're indirectly poking my team cause I have no idea how I'm still the trances since I left division1 6 seasons ago Grin

Every year is always our year

What's the update on the last question poeple? Any chance for China?

China will win bro they breed Badminton players so I've read you have nothing to worry about, and with that said I'll congratulate you now and wish you good luck going forward and don't give me that it's not over yet, in my mind it's over so yeah GG's bro. Grin

Not even sure where to look for odds on badminton but after their initial loss, France is destroying everybody.
They won 3-0 against India, China beat them 3-2.

Quick question - it's best to 3, right? If somebody leads 3-0, why do they play the remaining matches in the groups but not in the knockouts?
For better score difference in case of equal points?

The Arsenal comparison might have fly, but you're forgetting on key factors which is I'm a LMS (UEFA Champions League) holder and defending the champion, so there is literally no way I'm Arsenal, nice try though, but what should we call your team ? Burnley, Southampton or Derby County ?

Lol LMS is only a side attraction to help the lower divisions have a shot at winning something, it is the lowest tie and not many people enjoy playing it- Me Grin

More like celebrating a trophy that teams from the lower leagues have won before. He called it " champions league" Grin

You're wrong and the cup is the easiest shot at winning something, LMS you play against the everyone simultaneously which makes it the toughest title to win in BSFL...

--------------------

It's getting out of hand real fast in this round for my team yet again, I can't catch even get anything correctly right now, still just one point for me here, and I would be heavily reliant on the next sets of questions to stay alive, as a matter of fact I'd need Liverpool vs Man United to end with a draw unfailingly, or I'm done.

I knew the Under 3.5 goals prediction from the PSG against Bayern match would be too hard to overcome.
Next time I should try not to be extra smart.....as if that ever worked out Cheesy

I lost my match and now I'm even a bit scared of a possible LMS death.

Anyway congrats dittoup on winning the match, very well deserved!

yes , it's first to win 3 matches & don't have to play remaining matches.

China will win for sure , France is a one trick team & rely heavily on their singles players not to metion getting lucky with injuries so far in the draw ..played japan without it's 2nd best singles player & then played india without it's best singles player. 3-0 China win for me

Can't believe all my picks after the first 2 points just went down the drain! But I guess you get what you deserve and @hosemary, I guess it will be after Manchester United and Liverpool on the final whistle do we know whether we offer congratulations or we share points.

To be fair I expected to be worst off so its nice I am still playing for something on Sunday. GL to you bro!!

jayce today it will be decided about who will win our match.. Our last question is United-Liverpool.. Damn this will be a difficult match but I have full confidence that Liverpool will win the match today😁 Come on Liverpool help me with 3 points😁😁

No way Liverpool wins this one

I can see a draw maybe but I think United takes it.

Liverpool isn't playing good football this season and now that has coupled with a lot of injuries as well. Carric's United should be able to take this. At least I hope so both for another LMS point and Bruno captain in fantasy.

My league win is already in the bag. Killed this round, nice when it happens to me for once Cool

Meh, this round gonna ruin my goal difference as cryptofrka is kicking my ass. I really didn;t think that I will enter Sunday while having only 1 correct answer.

Good to hear that China is the favorite as I still need at least 1 correct answer more to survive LMS.

I’m 3-2 down to russeras and we only have one question remaining with a different answer so the best I can hope for is a draw.

The different answer is in the Man Utd vs Liverpool game. He went for a draw and I went for Man Utd to win. I don’t like going against Liverpool but I don’t trust us at their stadium at the moment. If I am to lose this round then I pray it’s that Liverpool win and russeras and myself are both wrong with would give him the win Cheesy

3 points are in the bag. Looks like this time luck was on my side, and I’m still strong, I think, in the LMS, so no rebuy in Round 5 either. Great

Glad that the Man Utd vs Liverpool game was some kind of decider because Man Utd is always a tricky one for me.

Thank you buwaman, and good luck in next rounds.
I officially won this round but I am still chasing for points for LMS and better goal difference.
It was a close call to get another one with Vegas match in NHL but they won in extra time instead of regular time.
For Championship question I wanted to choose Hull first but I went against my gut feeling and picked Wrexham. Tongue

Thank you and yes, I still need LMS safety, and for some reason my good friend Harkorede is saving my ass and everyone else's ass by only getting 1 point, so I have a feeling we're both facing elimination even if we get Sinner and China right, everyone else probably has them so the Northwest derby will be the only thing separating us.

Championship was truly hell. My gut said Wrexham, I went for Derby, thinking they had more experience. Hull popped and and ensured I would lose either way...

Quote from: buwaytress on May 03, 2026, 01:26:55 PM

Yes, we have just as much as stake as both teams playing, regardless of how the remaining 3 questions plays out, one of us or both of us would be going down, the difference maker would need Liverpool to win and one of Sinner or China, while I need a draw and a point from China or Sinner as well, anything else isn't going to work.

France going to Thomas Cup final was and is the most important result of the past 20 years,,, first knocking out Indonesia who never lose at group stage and is top 2 favorite. Then defeating India who is the defending champion, wow Shocked

It is just so bad luck the final is so late,,, most of us who actually follow will miss it. I am staying up just for this! If China loses, France will be Leicester City and will not be repeated again in 20 years.

@Harkorede never relegated, am I right?

Yes, you are right. Harkorede has been in the first division in all 9 seasons of BSFL.
There are only three players who have always been in the first division. They are Harkorede, Slissy and jayce.

Wow,,, honestly and without any sense of comedy or jealousy, I have to say that is a huge feat. 9 seasons and you have all kinds of really good players.

Quote from: Slissy on May 03, 2026, 07:19:18 AM

Lol it's so intense right! As Trofo mentioned, I have a feeling that it would be a draw, but let's see! 🔥

Liverpool without Isak, apparently an injury. United should be even more favorites now.

Old Trafford was a fun place for us recently but I have a feeling it will be a totally different game today.
Thankfully we don't really need the points because 5th place takes us to the CL as well.

Would really hate to be spanked by United though.
