Gameweek 27 – News, GW26 Review & Competition Updates
📰 Gameweek 27 News
Gameweek 27 questions have been posted, and the deadline, as always, is kick off of the first game, which this week is
3:00pm on Saturday 21st February.
⚽ Gameweek 26 Review
GW26 was one of the lowest-scoring Gameweeks of the season — and you could feel it across the whole table.
No one managed more than 4/6 on the 50-point questions, which tells you everything about how awkward these calls were.
It wasn’t about one team flying… it was about who could avoid the damage.
At the top, we ended up with a six-way tie on 200 points (4/6):
Predicted It Admin1,
Team Name Taken,
I Predict Deez Tings,
Bandwagonesque,
Rathfarnham Rats and
Maxie Pads.
Behind that, the table was basically one long traffic jam on 150.
Even heavy hitters like H-N Ham Fighters, The Mighty Duck,
Sevilla Euro King and Arcticus were stuck in that pack.
And then there was the rough end of it: Cunha Beleba!? had a nightmare —
0/6 on the 50s for a 0 score.
On a week where nobody ran away with it, that wooden spoon is even more painful because the door was wide open to bank points.
That response in GW27 is going to be fascinating.
🏆 Predicted It Cup & Super Sevens
Predicted It Cup: Qualification Done — now it’s knockout time
Five Gameweeks of 50-point questions only and the Cup qualifying table did exactly what it was designed to do:
it squeezed everyone, punished missed Gameweeks, and kept the pressure on right until the last deadline.
There was nothing comfortable about it.
At the very top, we actually had a three-way tie on 957:
Ctrl Alt De Ligt,
The Mighty Duck and
H-N Ham Fighters.
That’s relentless consistency across the whole qualifying run — but it’s also a reminder that the Cup doesn’t care about seeds once the draw is made.
The qualifying line was properly tight too. Bandwagonesque scraped in at 16th on 753,
with ManlyChestHair Utd sitting just outside on 704.
That’s the Cup in one sentence: one big 250+ week and you’re in, one missed Gameweek and you’re chasing.
And now… the part everyone’s been waiting for.
The Last 16 is set, it’s two legs, and it starts immediately:
Leg 1 in GW27 and Leg 2 in GW28.
Total points across the two legs decides who goes through.
🎯 Predicted It Cup – Last 16 Draw
SKY BLUE BLUES vs SEVILLA EURO KING
Sky Blue Blues — Cup Qual: 15th ( 754) · Season Gauntlet: 16th ( 5,797) · Correct Predictions: 92 ( 50pt: 70 · 75pt: 17 · 200pt: 5)
Sevilla Euro King — Cup Qual: 9th ( 855) · Season Gauntlet: 5th ( 6,601) · Correct Predictions: 108 ( 50pt: 86 · 75pt: 17 · 200pt: 5)
Tail of the tape: Sevilla have the stronger season profile and a top-10 qualifying run. Sky Blue Blues will look at this and think “perfect underdog spot” — but they’ll need to land a strong Leg 1.
THE MIGHTY DUCK vs I PREDICT DEEZ TINGS
The Mighty Duck — Cup Qual: 2nd ( 957) · Season Gauntlet: 14th ( 5,977) · Correct Predictions: 100 ( 50pt: 82 · 75pt: 14 · 200pt: 4)
I Predict Deez Tings — Cup Qual: 12th ( 805) · Season Gauntlet: 19th ( 5,493) · Correct Predictions: 93 ( 50pt: 75 · 75pt: 15 · 200pt: 3)
Tail of the tape: Mighty Duck were a qualifying monster. I Predict Deez Tings have had big weeks and love a scrap — but they can’t afford to let the tie drift in Leg 1.
BANDWAGONESQUE vs DE LIGT MY BALLS
Bandwagonesque — Cup Qual: 16th ( 753) · Season Gauntlet: 17th ( 5,619) · Correct Predictions: 93 ( 50pt: 75 · 75pt: 14 · 200pt: 4)
De Ligt My Balls — Cup Qual: 4th ( 907) · Season Gauntlet: 2nd ( 6,848) · Correct Predictions: 107 ( 50pt: 78 · 75pt: 23 · 200pt: 6)
Tail of the tape: This is the “last seed vs title-chaser” tie. Bandwagonesque need to swing hard early — De Ligt My Balls have the biggest high-value punch of anyone left in the Cup.
TK PREDICTIONS vs MOORE-4-2
TK Predictions — Cup Qual: 8th ( 855) · Season Gauntlet: 23rd ( 5,265) · Correct Predictions: 91 ( 50pt: 70 · 75pt: 17 · 200pt: 4)
Moore-4-2 — Cup Qual: 13th ( 757) · Season Gauntlet: 9th ( 6,275) · Correct Predictions: 100 ( 50pt: 80 · 75pt: 14 · 200pt: 6)
Tail of the tape: TK have already proven they can smash Cup weeks. Moore-4-2 have the stronger season and a bigger 200-point record — feels like one “big call” decides this tie.
AN A CORSE CELTIC 🤟🤤 vs CTRL ALT DE LIGT
An A Corse Celtic 🤟🤤 — Cup Qual: 7th ( 856) · Season Gauntlet: 6th ( 6,496) · Correct Predictions: 106 ( 50pt: 79 · 75pt: 23 · 200pt: 4)
Ctrl Alt De Ligt — Cup Qual: 1st ( 957) · Season Gauntlet: 12th ( 6,120) · Correct Predictions: 99 ( 50pt: 78 · 75pt: 16 · 200pt: 5)
Tail of the tape: This is a proper “early final” vibe. Ctrl Alt topped qualifying. Celtic are flying in the season and have landed 75s all year. Two legs feels mandatory here.
2INAROW vs LEAVE MY ARSELONA
2inarow — Cup Qual: 6th ( 905) · Season Gauntlet: 10th ( 6,268) · Correct Predictions: 100 ( 50pt: 80 · 75pt: 14 · 200pt: 6)
Leave My Arselona — Cup Qual: 11th ( 806) · Season Gauntlet: 11th ( 6,199) · Correct Predictions: 100 ( 50pt: 73 · 75pt: 23 · 200pt: 4)
Tail of the tape: Same total correct predictions, different styles. 2inarow have the bigger 200-point punch. Arselona have been lethal on 75s. This could swing either way.
DYNAMO CHICKEN KIEV vs THE DELGANY SHARKS
Dynamo Chicken Kiev — Cup Qual: 14th ( 755) · Season Gauntlet: 13th ( 6,073) · Correct Predictions: 99 ( 50pt: 80 · 75pt: 14 · 200pt: 5)
The Delgany Sharks — Cup Qual: 5th ( 907) · Season Gauntlet: 3rd ( 6,805) · Correct Predictions: 113 ( 50pt: 88 · 75pt: 21 · 200pt: 4)
Tail of the tape: Delgany were top tier in qualifying and they’ve been one of the strongest teams all season by volume. Dynamo will know they need a big Leg 1 to make the second leg spicy.
H-N HAM FIGHTERS vs ARCTICUS
H-N Ham Fighters — Cup Qual: 3rd ( 957) · Season Gauntlet: 1st ( 7,176) · Correct Predictions: 118 ( 50pt: 93 · 75pt: 20 · 200pt: 5)
Arcticus — Cup Qual: 10th ( 855) · Season Gauntlet: 4th ( 6,749) · Correct Predictions: 111 ( 50pt: 84 · 75pt: 23 · 200pt: 4)
Tail of the tape: If you wanted a “headline tie”, it’s this. #1 in the season vs one of the most in form teams in the game! Hold onto your seats.
Super Sevens: Two Gameweeks Left — it’s a sprint finish
With only two Gameweeks left, Super Sevens is now all about who keeps landing 75s at the right time.
De Ligt My Balls lead on 1,132 (18 correct 50s, 3 correct 75s),
with Arcticus second on 1,080 (17 correct 50s, 3 correct 75s).
Then it gets crowded fast:
The Delgany Sharks are third on 1,057,
and Ctrl Alt De Ligt, H-N Ham Fighters and
The Mighty Duck are all on 1,032.
Two Gameweeks is plenty of time for chaos.
If you’re in that top group, you’ll feel it: one more 75 determined in your favour and you can jump multiple places.
These last two Gameweeks are huge.
📈 Season Gauntlet Update
At the top of the Season Gauntlet, H-N Ham Fighters continue to set the pace on 7,176.
They’re not just leading on points either — they also lead the entire game for total correct predictions with 118
(93 correct 50-point predictions, 20 correct 75-point predictions, and 5 correct 200-point predictions).
That’s title-winning consistency and the big-hit profile to match it.
The podium chase is fierce.
De Ligt My Balls are second on 6,848, with
The Delgany Sharks third on 6,805 and
Arcticus fourth on 6,749.
That entire trio is separated by just 99 points, so it’s one swing week away from flipping again.
The next bracket is stacked with teams who can absolutely break into the top four.
Sevilla Euro King are fifth on 6,601 and
An A Corse Celtic 🤟🤤 are sixth on 6,496.
Both have proven they can land big calls, and both are still close enough to turn one strong run into a genuine charge.
The biggest “watch this space” storyline is Cunha Beleba!?.
They’re still eighth on 6,444 — so the season isn’t falling apart — but the 0/6 week is the type of result that can either spark a bounce-back run or start a wobble.
How they respond in GW27 will tell us a lot.
And don’t ignore the group just outside the top 10:
Moore-4-2 (9th, 6,275) and 2inarow (10th, 6,268) are basically level,
with Leave My Arselona (11th, 6,199) and Ctrl Alt De Ligt (12th, 6,120) right behind.
One strong scoring burst and those places can shuffle quickly.
