2025-26 CL Prediction League Week 17 Fixtures

As far as I recall, last season almost every fixture was generously made available in the Prediction League for the week before Christmas. Not so, this year, as TMA turns into Ebenezer Scrooge. The late Sunday predictors also need to be on their guard, as two of the Sunday/Monday fixtures involve 'Guest Fixtures'. And so, it's the last week that you can play yourself into the prestigious Prediction Knock Out Cup, which begins in the New Year. As is tradition, the top 128 competitors will be entered into the Cup competitions, meaning everyone down to 12th in the National League South will qualify. However, please note that if there is a tie on points for the lowest-scoring places, the qualifiers will be decided on those with the highest scores from the four most recent weeks, not the weird sorting used when displaying the League Tables. If that doesn't separate any ties, we go back five weeks, six weeks or more until there is a difference. The draw for the Prediction Knock Out Cup 1st Round is due to take place on Monday, 29th December at 10 a.m. (subject to confirmation) and will, as always, be beamed live around the world. Right, that's enough from me, here are this week's Scrooge-like fixtures to choose from. Good luck.
