There is always a chance of causing an upset.
You've probably seen countless threads of people complaining about losing to inferior teams, so you should set out to make your opposition one of those!
I knocked a team, that was 3 stars lower than me, out of the cup 3 times in a row, and he knocked me out this season.
I was in the same boat a couple of seasons ago...I am a scout buyer myself, but there was a chap who kept appearing in my CL who would literally buy every player off the list, and he knocked me out 3 seasons in a row.
Now, this season he is not in my CL so i have a chance of going for the cup.
You should set up a defensive formation, and set yourself up for counter attacks. Think about how Oldham must have felt when they got Liverpool in the FA cup two times in a row, and they beat us first time around.
Good luck!![]()
