We have launched a new Fantasy Premier League classic mini-league to mark the resumption of the 2019/20 season, with scoring starting from Gameweek 30+.

Whether you’re currently ranked first in the world or closer to the seven-million mark, everyone is in with a chance of winning as all entrants start from zero.

Head to the FPL site via this link and use the code ‘i3lxye’ to sign up (full details are towards the bottom of this piece).

There’s not only pride at stake in this mini-league but the carrot of free annual memberships to the managers who finish in the top five places.

Don’t worry if you’re already subscribed for 2020/21 – we’ll refund your payment if your finish qualifies you for this prize.

Our new end-of-season mini-league is called the ‘The FFScout Charity Shield‘ and we’re also using this opportunity to try and raise money for the NHS.

We usually offer Amazon vouchers to those finishing in the podium places of our Fantasy Football Scout and Fantasy Football Scout Members leagues, and that remains the case in this stop-start season.

For ‘The FFScout Charity Shield’, we at Fantasy Football Scout are pledging the cash equivalent – £300 – to NHS Charities Together.

The selfless work that our National Health Service key workers carry out on a daily basis has been brought into sharp focus over the last three months.

We’re honoured to be donating money to such a worthwhile cause and we’re inviting you to do the same via our JustGiving page.

We should stress that a donation is not mandatory and anyone can enter ‘The FFScout Charity Shield’ whether they are able to make a financial contribution or not; we fully appreciate that these are tough, unprecedented times and some of you will perhaps not be in a position to do so.

If you are able to spare a bob or two, however, then you can do so by clicking on the below link.

Many thanks to anyone who donates to the fund and good luck for the rest of the season.

      You cant say that since both are SGW players. Maybe if you compare with a City or Arsenal defender.

        I'm comparing as I can only have one of them on a FH this week.
        Doherty gives me more funds to spend in other areas.
        Not much between them this week imo.

    1) Özil + Mahrez
    2) Sterling + Saka

    This is for BB. Just a gut feeling (and call me stupid) but I quite fancy Özil to finish the season strong, albeit I am basing that on nothing as his underlying stats at the moment are awful.

    Secondly is the consensus that Sterling is likely to get more mins that Mahrez?

      Depends on your team, prep for BB in 30, WC 31 if youre not happy with your team, FH 30 and revert to current team in 31 if youre happy with it / concerned about losing value building for BB team.

      For BB its only an extra DGw play, who's most likely a villa defender

    Interesting Chelsea result yesterday. Attacking options against Villa are surely a must have?

      Lots of chatter about them for the run in - they probably have the right amount of "incentive" to drive them on too with utd & wolves pushing them hard for 4th

      Not really convinced from an FPL perspective personally though

      Each of their attacking options have demonstrated epic trolling level for most of the season:

      - Tammy: 7 goals from 2.5 XG in GWs 3 through 5.. then 6 goals in his other 20 starts (from ~10XG)
      - Mount: 6 returns in 9 games in his purple patch from GW2-10, just in time to lure in masses of eager new owners, before then getting 2G & 4A in the next 20 Gameweeks
      - Pulisic: Don't even start me on that little rascal after his exploits from GW13 onwards

        Very true but as a one off against Villa with their poor defence record it might be a worthy punt.
