Having recently announced the launch of the 13th instalment of our open to all Fantasy Premier League cup competition, we thought we’d give you another reminder to make sure you enter in time.

As we revealed last week, this year’s contest is sponsored by FanDuel, who are donating more than £1,000 worth of prizes for UK based entrants on top of the £350 in Amazon vouchers we are offering to the top three managers at the end of the competition.

In addition, all UK entrants who take part in the cup get a £10 free credit from FanDuel added to their account when they play their first game. This can be used at any time as soon as you register with FanDuel.

Sign up to this latest Cup competition via the entry form here. The deadline for entries is Monday November 7.

Timetable

The qualifying round will take place in Gameweek 11, with the first round running in Gameweek 12.

The first round will consist of 1024 teams and, as usual, all the competition’s previous winners who enter will gain a bye into the first round draw where they will join the top scorers from Gameweek 11. FPL standing will decide who progresses in the event of tied positions. Previous winners must enter to be included.

The cup will then be played out according to the following Gameweek schedule: 

Note that some Gameweeks are skipped due to tight turnaround times.

    What are the chances of Rashford starting?

    1. some witty pun
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      same line up against Liverpool last week, i'd imagine.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        What about bench in Europe and Martial back?

    2. ChromeDome
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'd say quite likely as he didn't play midweek.

    3. Worzel Gummidge
        9 years, 1 month ago

        He will be dropped soon enough IMO and can't see him starting.

      • Leaf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        He didn't play last in Europe so should do
        Hope he gets the Burnley game next week too

      • Numb
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        With him not playing that well the last two games and others like Lingard, Martial and Rooney doing OK I think a dropping is imminent.

        1. Numb
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Plus, Pogba did well in the more advanced role last night (his best position anyway) he could play that role, adding to the congestion up front.

      • Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks all hope he holds out for next 3 won't take a hit now and hope he starts this week.

              Think he's ran his race

              9 years, 1 month ago

              i begrudging sold in the end for Wally, paying 7m for a rwb who is classed as a mid isnt ideal against anyone. But we all know he is still capable of double figures from there.

            3. Worzel Gummidge
                9 years, 1 month ago

                Hopefully everyone so I can get another rank jump.

                Just for this week, Sunderland will be the greatest leaving present a player can give when he scores all the points

                Wouldn't get rid of him for a hit and won't keep him if I had a free.

                  I will be and I own Sanchez.

                  Are you going with this or looking for doubters? Think i'm captaining him over Sanchez and Wally.

                Final Wildcard Team:

                Heaton Robinson

                Holebas Fuchs Bellerin Cameron Amat

                Sanchez Wally KDB Stanislas Firmino

                Costa Lukaku Diomande

                Without Aguero for the first time in a million years. Any suggestion will be appreciated. Cheers.

                  Try to upgrade Stanislas and also make sure you have an Aguero plan for next week or week after

                Sergio Kun Agüero or Alexis Sanchez to receive my armband ... Hmmmmm

                  If anyone has a spare minute I'd need some advice:

                  1 FT 0 ITB.

                  Pick Jaku
                  Holebas Amat Walker (Baines(red) Evans(red))
                  Sanchez Antonio Firmino Son (Capoue)
                  Kun Lukaku Benteke

                  Thinking Baines->Pieters to afford Antonio->Walcott next gw. Or both now for a hit or smth else? Cheers 🙂

                  1. Krul Runnings
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 1 month ago

                    Baines --> Clyne/Lovren?

                    Next week Antonio --> Llalanna

                    Would want to double up on Arsenal mids from next week, you would be missing plum fixture this week.

                    1. Krul Runnings
                      • 10 Years
                      9 years, 1 month ago

                      Wouldnt* want

                    2. Whazza
                      • 13 Years
                      9 years, 1 month ago

                      Interesting. Currently feel Walcott is a must... until he stops scoring anyway 🙂

                      1. Krul Runnings
                        • 10 Years
                        9 years, 1 month ago

                        Tbh if that was my team I'd probably save and re-evaluate next week.

                        Baines --> Lovren would be seriously tempting though to avoid playing Amat. Gives you a defender with perfect fixtures until Christmas.

                        From GW11everyone will be selling EVE Defs anyway.

                        1. Whazza
                          • 13 Years
                          9 years, 1 month ago

                          Yeah might end up saving FT. I actually think Arsenal still have nice enough fixtures for the double up but so do Pool

                          1. Krul Runnings
                            • 10 Years
                            9 years, 1 month ago

                            I'm currently doubled up on Arsenal mids but I wouldn't be if it wasn't for this fixture tomorrow. As in, I wouldn't double from next week.

                            I've got Sanchez--> KDB pencilled in if wally keeps his form

                            1. Whazza
                              • 13 Years
                              9 years, 1 month ago

                              I see no reason getting rid of Sanchez myself. KdB is too expensive imo if you have Aguero who you will captain anyway. Not sure I would trust Walcott with the armband when it comes to Arsenal.

                              1. Krul Runnings
                                • 10 Years
                                9 years, 1 month ago

                                That's a fair point. It all depends on Sanchez and KDB,s form tbh.

                                We will see how it pans out!

                                1. Whazza
                                  • 13 Years
                                  9 years, 1 month ago

                                  Sure does. Spurs is a nice fixture for the Arsenal attackers too, so the upcoming fixtures might look a bit worse on paper than they actually are. UTD game looks low-scoring

                                  1. Whazza
                                    • 13 Years
                                    9 years, 1 month ago

                                    Pool has no Europe so 3 Pool players could be great with those fixtures 🙂

                    Looks good to me! Let's hope Jaku will play from now on

                  Allen, Snodgrass, Deeney or AOA

                  Evening all, not sure what my approach should be with this lot:
                  Pickford (Jak)
                  Vertonghen - Holebas - Pieters (McAuley, Amat)
                  Sanchez - Walcott - Sterling - Firmino (Capoue)
                  Kun - Lukaku - Rashford

                  I'd like to be rid of rashford, mcauley, capoue and Jak. 1FT, 0.2 ITB
                  A) Capoue and Mcauley ---> Fletcher and Koscielny
                  B) McAuley ---> Lovren
                  C) Rashford and Capoue to Fletcher and Austin/ other cheap striker.

                  Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated, cheers!

                  Anyone thinking of giving Payet the armband?

                    Torn between him and Agüero!

                    I have Walcott too but I just have a feeling about the other two.

                    Payet playing against the worst team in the league and Agüero with a point to prove...

                  Would you play allen and snodgrass ahead of tekkers?

                    Never bench a striker who costs more than £5m

                    Tough call on the mids. Maybe All Out Attack

                  Wildcard active, last draft so far-

                  Grant Boruc
                  Vertonghen Blind Holebas Amat Smith
                  Allen Walcott Sanchez Firmino Capoue
                  Kun Lukaku Austin

                  +0.6m ITB

                  What would you change? Any suggestions would be great.

                    Capoue is done - downgrade to Fletcher and spend the money elsewhere.

                    It's a good line up, but, as Hyypia Headers says, forget Capoue and downgrade- his value is about to drop 0.1 tonight anyway. Other picks to consider might be De Bruyne instead of Sanchez (City have good fixtures and you have Walcott), Slimani, a Liverpool defender (their fixtures are brilliant).

                  A) Amat
                  B) Holebas
                  C) Allen and Snodgrass with AOA

                  Capoeu to (I think there's nothing in it, either is the same, but I'd like to hear some thoughts)

                  A) Fletcher
                  B) Whelan

                    I also can sell Capoue for +0.2 before his price goes down...
