You won’t have to pay a penny to enter FanTeam‘s latest Freeroll event, which gives Fantasy managers the chance to compete for a £1,000 prize pool on Boxing Day.

To the layman, this is a Fantasy tournament that effectively gives entrants the chance to build a six-a-side ‘Free Hit’ squad for the first five matches of Gameweek 19:

There is a jackpot of £420 up for grabs and prizes awarded down to 12th place.

The deadline is at 15:00 GMT on Sunday.

Head to the FanTeam lobby and look for the ‘FANTEAM’S FESTIVE BOXING DAY FREEROLL – [BIG THANKS TO ALL OUR PLAYERS]’ link (seen below) to enter:

SCOUT PICKS FOR GAMEWEEK 19

£1,000 on offer in FanTeam's free-to-play Boxing Day Fantasy event 4

HOW TO PLAY: A BRIEF GUIDE

Different from the usual squad-based games, FanTeam managers are given a budget of €90m to build a team of six players from any position. A maximum of three players per club is permitted.

These half-dozen assets then score points as they would in FPL (more below) based on their on-field achievements.

Here are some notable things to consider in the otherwise easy-to-play game:

  • There is no bench or manual substitutes; instead, there is a ‘Safety Net’ feature. If a player in your Fantasy team isn’t in the starting XI for their side, they will automatically be substituted for the next priced player from the same position and club.
  • A ‘Stacking Penalty’ is given if you have two or more defensive players from the same club and they keep a clean sheet. One point is deducted for each additional asset that you select from the same side.
  • Captains and vice-captains score 1.5 and 1.2 times the points respectively – but also cost 50% and 20% more!

HOW DOES THE SCORING WORK?

FPL managers looking for a way to make their knowledge pay will have no trouble picking up FanTeam‘s Gameweek 19 Freeroll, with its familiar scoring system.

Think of it as FPL without the bonus points, with a few other exceptions such as shots on target, winning/losing impact points and ‘stacking penalties’ – detailed in the graphic above.

    James Reg Dalot Tierney

    Before you say Dalot, Look at the chances conceded for Newcastle down Dalots side..

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Still Dalot IMO

  2. WhatWouldYourZlatanSay

    Any help really appreciated

    Hey guys

    Ramsdale

    James-Cancelo-Livra-Tomiyasu
    Gallagher-Foden-Bilva
    Watkins-Maupay

    (Sanchez, TAA*,Salah*,Jota*, King*)

    With 2fts and O.2 should I

    A. Jota and King > Martinelli and Wilson
    B. Salah and King > Martinelli and Ronaldo
    C. Jota and Foden > Martinelli and Son (I know Foden has a fixture but Pep can be quite unforgiving on poor behaviour)
    D. As B but go for Kane as Palace might have a huge weakened defence.
    E. Take a - 4 because of Gallagher potentially being a Covid case.

    Cheers everyone and happy Boxing Day!

  3. Bennyboy1907
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Son or ronaldo-4

    1. DavidHopkin
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Ronaldo if it’s just the one.

  4. DavidHopkin
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Dennis and salah to CR7 and son (-4

    Or

    Geldhart, salah, jota to CR7, son and Bowen (-8)

  5. sentz05
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    1. How likely Antonio will get minutes?

    2. Kovacic likely to get minutes?

  6. Atimis
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    FH or Salah to Ronaldo -4 and field 10 with no Spurs?

    Afraid of not having Ronaldo this week and Salah next week…

    1. DavidHopkin
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Salah to ronaldo

  7. Zladan
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Spurs confirmed to go ahead, maybe Son is the far safer mover than CR7... serious headache trying to squeeze in those 2 this morning.

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      And then Son to Salah for LEI.

  8. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Pencil in the CRY vs. NOR postponement for next GW.

    1. Ruinenlust
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Why?

      1. JBG
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Cause Cry have a lot of cases it seems. Just unlucky not to get postponed this GW.

    2. Zimo
      • 5 Years

      Purrfuct

    3. FCSB
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Logical call

  9. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    A) Salah -> Son(C) for free
    B) Salah&Lacazette -> Ronaldo(C) Martinelli for a hit

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      A

      Don't sell Lacazette.

  10. mcflyjohn
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    A or B

    A (-4, Sell Salah):

    Ramsdale

    Cancelo (C) | Rudi | Tierney | Dalot

    Son | Foden | Bernado | ESR

    Watkins I Broja

    Bench: Sanchez, Williams, Dennis, TAA, Jota

    OR

    B (Free Hit)

    Ramsdale

    Tierney | Cancelo | Regulion | James

    ESR | Son | Bowen | Bernardo | Sterling

    Kane

    Bench: Dalot , Watkins, Locadia, Gunarsson

      A

  11. The Mighty Whites
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    1FT, 3.2 ITB, thoughts?

    DDG - Bachmann

    TAA - Cancelo - James - White - Livramento

    Salah - Jota - Gundogan - Raphinha - Allan

    Watkins - Antonio - King

    Currently got 8 players…

    Would you do a -4 (Martinelli & Ronaldo in for Salah & King) or,

    a -8 (Martinelli, Son & Ronaldo in for Salah, Gundogan & King) ??

    Thank you!

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Seems so for the games today
      MUN unknown

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      So far so good.

  13. Manani
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Thoughts on keeping Salah on WC, and play 10 this week? I want him for next week, and don’t see any good mid to bring in (except a punt on city but will just mean spend extra FT next week to get rid)

    Rest of mid:
    Jota Son Bowen Martinelli

    1. Norco
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Do it

    2. Bunk Moreland
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Bad idea. Just maximize tiur points potential. Punt on Bruno or kdb if you are sure you want him back next week.

  14. Cathal Cantona
    • 14 Years

    Very happy i made the salah to son move yesterday and got the price rise! Get in!!!

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Genius!

    2. Norco
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      You mean you're very happy spurs game didn't get postponed?

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Yes I think that can be inferred and seems like you're not 😉

    3. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Stupid decisions sometimes have good outcomes. You got very lucky.

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Now now not stupid. Risky is the word you're looking for.

      2. POGON 1948
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Jesus the levels of intelectual superiority.. no such thing as luck mate, just incredibly high risk and high reward. All the early movers knew what they were doing.

      3. Utopsis
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Stupid is harsh. Calculated risk that paid off.

  15. FCSB
    • 8 Years

  17. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    pages moving too quick guys … you are going to have to actually make your own minds up for a change 😉

  18. camarozz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    So if u can field 11 today without even a hit saving FH is prob best way to go?( Even if u have no Spurs etc).

    1. Hansel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

    2. Arteta
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Of course.

    3. Utopsis
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Depends on the 11. I can but have Williams, Livra, Bernando, ESR so is that really 7/8? My current conundrum

      1. camarozz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        I have Bilva too,but who knows whos turn it is to click for city!?
        Williams v arsenal my weakest player today.

        1. Utopsis
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 3 months ago

          Seems you're OK then. I'm now looking for reasons NOT to use my FH

    4. Espanyolie
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      For sure

  19. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    A) For free: Salah -> Son (10 players)
    B) For -4: Salah, King -> Martinelli, Ronaldo (11 players)
    C) For -8: Salah, Foden, Watkins/Antonio -> Son, Martinelli, Ronaldo (10 players)

  20. HollywoodXI
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    I’m out of touch. Is the Spurs game happening or not? Seen conflicting info.

    1. Salalalalah
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      It's on

    2. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Who tf knows

  21. Salalalalah
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Is Moura an option to bring if you can't afford Son?
    Will give me Ronaldo (c) and Moura from Salah and Dennis

    1. Hansel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Prefer Arsenal

      1. Salalalalah
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        Already got Laca

    2. Zladan
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Will Moura even play? Alli might get the nod again.

      1. Salalalalah
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 3 months ago

        That is the dilemma. Might just do Salah to Son and give armband to him

  22. Arteta
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Captain Cancelo, Son or Lacazette?

    1. Salalalalah
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Son

    2. JBG
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Son

    3. Hansel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      Son, Laca, Cancelo

  23. TeddiPonza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Which combo scores more?

    A. Ronaldo (c) and Martinelli
    B. Son (c) and Antonio +4 points

    Thanks

    1. Hansel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 3 months ago

      I’m leaning A

  24. M_Rega96
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Free hit
    DDG
    Reguilon Tierney Cancelo
    Mount Martinelli Bowen Foden Son
    Laca CR7
    (Fab James Lamptey Broja)

    Any good?

  25. Zladan
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Suddenly Kane on my radar now given there are so few strikers I want if I get Son in.

  26. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    Salah > Son has made up 15% of all transfers this week

  27. MGD
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    A) Martinelli
    B) Bowen
    C) Rashford

    Pick 2.

  28. Ando
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 3 months ago

    What would you do?

    a) Salah ➡ Son (C)

    b) Salah & Dennis ➡ Ronaldo (C) & Bowen for -4

    1. sirmorbach
      • 7 Years
