Who will be the final player to reach the Last 8 ?

Slightly different rules as there is no home or away player (neutral venue) for this match.
Both players will get £150 to bet on 5 games but still must bet on all matches.
At least one of the bets must be for a minimum of £50
They will PM their bets to me (wont see each others until I receive both)
