That's not 100% correct, only the most likely result.

The division winner gets an automatic ticket, regardless the result.
Most of the time that team also has a 15-0, 14-1 or 13-2 record, but doesn't have to be.

Yes this is better - But you don´t have to be the division winner. You might be as well second place.

This got me confused:
The Supercup competition is a playoff based competition of all teams. There is no need to qualify for this, the teams participate automatically.

It sounds like: Everyone participates in the playoff. But all teams just participate in the regular season and the best team in your division advances to the play off. So after one or two losses it doesn´t matter anymore how you play.

Side question:
How can I change the game time. Local time is totally different from game time. One or two hours difference.

As per Pete all kick offs are set for GMT and are not adjusted for daylight saving during the summer. Changing kick off times against another manager have to be agreed, but when you play a bot you can always choose the kick off time.
League game kick off times cannot be change as that kick off time slot is for your league.

For me it is more about the transfer market. At what time does it really end. Happened some times that some late mover took a player I wanted.

The transfer deadline time is also GMT, which is the clock shown at the top left of the screen. A very later bid can extend this time by a couple of minutes.

Can non-Super Cup play off teams play friendlies on Thursdays / Mondays?

Yes, but they are not free friendlies (they cost credits) and there will be neither income nor experience for any player generated.

So most of us decide, it makes no sense to play a friendly on these days

After the division winners take their automatic spots in the SC playoffs, there are several "at-large" spots that go to the best remaining records. To date, every 14-1 SC record that I'm aware of also makes the playoffs. Several 13-2 teams also make the playoffs. I think I saw this year that 38 of the 52 13-2 teams made it (point differential is the tie breaker used among those teams).

But even with 3 losses, I would argue that you should still try to win SC games. For one, you get a financial bonus for a SC win from your sponsor. Secondly, home attendance is in part based on winning games, so losses in SC will reduce your attendance and wins improves it. And finally, losses also affect your team morale, and a low morale diminishes your team's performance, which could make the difference in an important league game.

Which formation on defense reflects the nickel?

Nickel I would define as: 4 DLine, 2 LB and 5 DBs (3 CBs and 2 S).


And is it correct that you can´t throw short passes to your RB? So a RB with a high catching skill is not recommended?
