The fourth round of our FFS Cup took place in Gameweek 32+, with 64 Fantasy managers whittled down to 32 after its conclusion.

The fifth round is scheduled to play out in Gameweek 33+, the deadline for which is at 11.30am BST on Saturday.

ALL RESULTS FROM THE FOURTH ROUND CAN BE VIEWED HERE
THE FULL DRAW FOR THE FIFTH ROUND IS AVAILABLE TO VIEW HERE

Former winner Wild Rover saw off Hafizi39 in the round of 64 and will now take on Cailean_2 this weekend.

billybly was our highest-ranked FPL boss left in the competition but exited in the fourth round and dropped out of the top 1k in the process.

Manisaspor, who sits at 1,591st in the world, now takes on that mantle, with Dial Square just 35 places behind.

Johnnex023 was the only one FPL manager in round four who posted a triple-figure score in Gameweek 32+, racking up exactly 100 points.

Every single one of our remaining 32 managers is ranked inside the top 300,000.

HOW DO THE CUP COMPETITIONS WORK?

The FFS Cup is very similar to the Fantasy Premier League’s own cup game.

Entrants who qualify for the first round were randomly drawn against each other and the winner of the tie is whoever has the highest score from that Gameweek, minus points spent on transfers (like in the original game and in head-to-head scores).

In the event of a draw, the manager highest in the overall FPL rankings after the tie will progress.

WHAT IS THE GAMEWEEK SCHEDULE?

The FFS Cup competition will be played out according to the following proposed Gameweek schedule:

Fantasy Football Scout Cup Round Dates
Qualifying – Gameweek 28

Round 1 – Gameweek 29
Round 2 – Gameweek 30+
Round 3 – Gameweek 31+
Round 4 – Gameweek 32+
Round 5 – Gameweek 33+
Round 6 – Gameweek 34+
Quarter-Final – Gameweek 35+
Semi-Finals – Gameweek 36+
Final and third-place play-off – Gameweek 37+

WHEN ARE THE FIXTURES RELEASED?

Where possible, the fixture list for each round will be published before each Gameweek deadline.

    Would you have Rash or Martial in a FH team ?

    1. Mitchstone
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Is it a case of 'or' and not both? If one or the other who are you replacing them with?

      1. dansmusen
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I can have only one. Matial free up some cash to get a bit of bench options if there is unexpected resting.

    2. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Both. Gun to my head.. Rashford

    3. Eastman
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Martial

    4. FPL-Albion
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Martial playing 9 but classed as mid. Of the two him. Although I love rashford

      1. dansmusen
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        My thoughts are the same. But Rash is due a brace...hard one

    5. HashAttack
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      My FH team includes Martial, Rashford and Greenwood

      Not enough mid slots to have both Martial and Bruno - I prefer Martial this week
      Was on 4-5-1 last night with AWB but decided 3-5-2 with Greenwood has more points potential

  2. Mitchstone
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Hi all would love a final bit of advice.

    A) VVD (start), 4.1 def (bench), Martial (start)
    B) TAA, AWB, Foden/ASM (all start)

    Team is (3-5-2):
    Pope, Martin
    XX, XX, Doherty, Holgate, Kiko
    XX, Mahrez, Salah, Fernandes, Pulisic
    Rashford, Jimi, Nketiah/Connolly

    1. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

  3. corderz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    4m defender

    A) Jack Robinson
    B) Neco Williams

    1. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. FPL-Albion
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Surely won’t be playing them?

      1. DAVESAVES
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Playing Robinson this gw

      2. corderz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Bench fodder, but still.....

  4. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Bench one:

    A. Foden (sou)
    B. Greenwood (BOU)
    C. Origi (AVL)

    1. Ha.
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C

    2. FPL-Albion
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C... But he could be rotated in!

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        This is what I’m thinking....

    4. The Rock
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C

  5. Paddy Gooner
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    TAA > VVD for FT ???

    1. Mitchstone
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Why?

      1. Paddy Gooner
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        i was worried about rotation and not having money itb. but not so worried any more. think i'm gonna stick.

    2. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No

    3. FPL-Albion
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Nope

      1. Paddy Gooner
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        so it's definitely a No then. Thanks guys for your help 🙂

    4. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      nope

    5. A-L
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Most likely outcome is Trent gets 70 minutes and picks up a clean sheet before a 90th min goal goes in

  6. TRE2
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Barnes to Foden for a hit. Chasing and something needs to happen

    1. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No

    2. Lord.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Could be benched. Pep’s been alternating him. Good value in the longer run though.

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'd say yes in that case.

  7. JabbaWookiee
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Very very tempted to free hit. Worth going from 1 to 2? Or save it?

    1
    Pope (3.9)
    TAA - Laporte - Doherty (Aurier - Williams)
    KdB - Salah - Fernandes - Saint Maximin (McCarthy)
    Auba - DCL - Jiménez

    2
    Pope (3.9)
    TAA - AWB - Azpilicueta (Jack Robinson - 3.9)
    Mané - Salah - Fernandes - Willian - Saint Maximin
    Rashford - Vardy - 4.2

    1. JabbaWookiee
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Anyone willing to share some FPL wisdom?

      1. BERGKOP
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Similar position where the FH isn't making significant improvements to my current team. How are you feeling about it?

        1. JabbaWookiee
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Bit meh. But got fomo mainly from United and Chelsea. Only other time I’m really looking at playing the FH is GW38+

          You?

        2. JabbaWookiee
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Should. So. Have. Done. It. Again I find myself swearing to go with my gut from now on.

    2. Mitchstone
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Doesn't really look worth the free hit compared to your team now. Only real game changer is potentially rashford, who you could bring in for Auba in your squad now.

      1. JabbaWookiee
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        That worth a hit?

    3. HashAttack
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No way does Vardy get in a FH team

      1. JabbaWookiee
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Hmm....

        1. HashAttack
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          What can I say ... the old man must have decided he wants the golden boot

  8. boroie
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Please help.. I have 2 FTs but no idea what to do with them...

    DDG
    Gomez Lascelles Taylor
    Salah(C) Fernandes Son KDB
    Rashford(VC) Jimenez DCL

    Button; Saka Saiss Holgate

    1. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Similar team. Did Son > Mahrez

      1. A-L
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I’d probably do the same even if had a fair amount itb

  9. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    I would like Martial on my WC but have no idea who I should drop...

    Pope
    Doherty, AWB, Garcia
    Salah, Kdb, Fernandes, Mahrez, Pulisic
    Kane, Greenwood

    Patricio, Digne, Saiss, Gordon

    Leave it as is?

    1. gellinmagellan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Solid team as is. I would probably go Mahrez/Pulisic if I have to, and if feeling particularly wild, maybe KDB

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I won’t be selling Kdb anyway but Pulisic I could. Just like him as an option

    2. DAVESAVES
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You need 2 Utd attack, Pulisic out imo

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Fernandes and Greenwood are there

    3. Treadstone
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Youve got 3 Utd boys already it'll have to be one of them if you want Martial.

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I’d drop Greenwood but I’d need to lose on if that midfield also

  10. camarozz
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Save FT or ship any of these??

    DDG
    Aurier
    Jesus
    Rash?

    1. The Rock
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Save

  11. Rhodes your boat
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Son to mahrez -4?
    Yay or nay?

    1. beric
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Ive done that swap but i wouldnt have done it for a hit

    2. Ace Ventura
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I did it for a free but not worth a hit IMO

    3. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Not for a hit. Spurs have Bournemouth next

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        And Everton haven't beaten Spurs home or away in the league since 2012.

        It could be a draw, if so likely score draw but I can see 3.1 Spurs on Monday night in the capital.

    4. Rhodes your boat
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Thanks all!

  13. The Rock
    • 17 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Play one of Ritchie, Foden, Aurier?

    Currently have them in that order as i feel Foden probably start this one on the bench.

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Ritchie at home looks promising to me.

      1. The Rock
        • 17 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers Jamie.

        Im hoping he starts himself! I know he's fit but maybe Bruce wants to keep the same players as the last win.

  14. fakelund
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    Start:
    a) Lascelles (WHU h)
    b) Cantwell (BHA h)

    I'm really lost with the captaincy this game week. Tell me who you are captaining and why

    1. Teror
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Bruno. Bournemouth are shite and of all of manures players Bruno seems to have the most routes to points.

      1. Party time
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Even after the news?

        1. Teror
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Considering it's in the mirror I might just TC him

          1. Party time
            6 years, 1 month ago

            😆

            fair enough

      2. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Good pick, although going Salah over him today, think pool wants to show their home supporters that they can recover massively from the city loss

        1. The Rock
          • 17 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          You do realise there are no fans? No such thing as home supporters anymore.

          But i agree that they will want to revenge the city loss a bit.

          1. RamaJama
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            I realise, but still, they have to play well at Anfield to make their fans in front of the telly proud

            1. The Rock
              • 17 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Do fans watching on telly prefer if their team does better home or away? I'm not so sure 🙂

              I can see both utd and Liverpool winning 4-0. So either Salah/Mane or Bruno great picks this week.

              1. RamaJama
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                6 years, 1 month ago

                Your English better than mine, but sure you understood I meant that the people who support Liverpool, expect them to put on a better show than against city 😉

        2. Teror
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          You mean the home supporters in their empty stadium?

          1. RamaJama
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Should have said supporters or fans 🙂

      3. The Rock
        • 17 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Same as Teror.

        The news is fake. Came from a parody website on 1st july.

    2. Goonsquad245
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Salah, best player in the game, motivated, playing villa

      1. Teror
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Didn't look motivated on Thursday

    3. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Salah v relegated Villa, no brainer and at home too.

      1. Teror
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Home games aren't really home games anymore without the crowd. It's been statistically proven that home advantage has dissipated in the Bundesliga since the restart.

    4. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Salah, they want to erase the embarrassment as champion and golden boots to chase

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        This, and also on pens

  18. gers23
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    If leading your mini league (65) is it sensible not to take hits? Only way I could get Salah or Martial in, is for a hit.

    1. Ace Ventura
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      65 is a decent lead. Odd 4 pointer should be fine if risk assessed.

  19. SHOOTER MCGINN

    Wanting to captain Martial, but have some doubts in the back of my mind with his injury history. For all weeks to get a captaincy wrong, this is not it with so many good options.

      GW38+ for me
      Feels like the goals have been slow to go in after the restart but picking up a bit now. Statistically more goals in the final GW than average, and will have a better idea of my risk appetite by then!

        'Statistically more goals in the final GW than average' - is that true?

        How many compared to average?

          There was an article on here a few seasons back. Alas, cannot find it.

      Now for me.. 38 might just be boring with some teams already at the beach
