Our second Premium Members cup competition of 2021/22 is running every week from now until the end of the season, with round four taking place in Gameweek 34.

A total of £300-worth of prizes is on offer in this tournament, with a full breakdown towards the bottom of this article.

We’ve got the latest results and draw for you here.

RESULTS AND DRAW

The results for the third round can be viewed here

The draw for the fourth round can be viewed here.

Our one remaining former winner progressed to the round of 32: Mohd Rodzi (3,367th) saw off this week’s Scout Picks community champion, The Mentaculus (169,152nd), in round three.

Two managers within the top 1k remain in the competition but one other bowed out.

Our previous highest-ranked boss, A.J.,was beaten by Ukraine YNWA (10,524th) 68-56 and dropped from 197th to 629th in the process.

Peteski29 (745th) and I Member (497th) prevailed, while JONALDINHO (1,332nd) was also triumphant in round three despite slipping out of the top 1k.

JONALDINHO’s round four clash with Jamiemac (1,366th) catches the eye, with just 34 places separating the two.

For the second round in a row, K3lvN‘s (163,308th) provided us with the top Gameweek score: 97, this time.

Bob McMayday (33,754th) and mayank_fpl (179,343rd) had excellent Gameweeks, with scores of 84 and 85, but had the misfortune of meeting the aforementioned Jamiemac and WELL YOU KNOW, TRIFFIC (40,500th), who scored even higher.

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:

  • Qualifying – Gameweek 30
  • Round 1 – Gameweek 31
  • Round 2 – Gameweek 32
  • Round 3 – Gameweek 33
  • Round 4 – Gameweek 34
  • Round 5 – Gameweek 35
  • Quarter-Final – Gameweek 36
  • Semi-Finals – Gameweek 37
  • Final and third place play-off – Gameweek 38

WHEN ARE THE FIXTURES RELEASED?

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

    Kane to Ronaldo crazy?

    1. The Final Boss
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      I did it last week and captained him coz of that Norwich fix. Not sure this week.

    2. Definitely not sleeping

      For a -4

      1. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Don't do it. Kane could feast this week.

    3. BremerHB
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Probably not. You’d likely be switching him back after the DGW?

    4. FPL Equilibrium
      • 4 Years

      Craziest move I’ve heard, they blank soon and United are poop along with pooey fixtures, sympathy we’ll clear of any united IMO

      NO

    Guys decided to use may last FH. How is it?

    Ddg
    Taa cancelo laporte
    Salah havertz mount kulu sterling
    Werner nketiah

    4.0 veltman gelhardt tsimikas

    1. BremerHB
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Could you maybe play a better defender instead of Nketiah? Matip/Alonso perhaps?

      1. The Final Boss
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Want triple Chelsea attack as I see some upside there. So Alonso not an option. Matip may be.

    2. noissimbus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Try starting Tsimikas and bench Nketiah. Can always come in if it turns out Tsimikas doesn't play.

      1. The Final Boss
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Hmm good point.

  4. nerd_is_the_werd

    Captain:

    a) Chelsea player - Havertz, Mount, Werner - choose
    b) KDB

    I was originally gonna go with Havertz (c) but KDB (c) is odds-on for either a goal or assist.
    Going with a DGW punt - Fernandes (c) fail also didn't help.

    1. BremerHB
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      Chelsea I reckon.

    2. nerd_is_the_werd
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      City must win against Watford as well.
      Whereas Chelsea can conceivably lose both games and still do ok - although I can't see them not scoring in either.

      1. BremerHB
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        You’re talking yourself into KDB (c) it seems! Go for it if you want - potentially a big differential and in form b

        1. nerd_is_the_werd
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          That is indeed what I'm doing, but also can't ignore the facts.
          Havertz was rested and double blanks means I can net a minimum of 4-6 pts.
          There's also CL match against Real Madrid for KDB so may get taken off early.

          Selling Salah ---> Fernandes (c) -4 basically put my rank from 70k --> 120k so fairly crucial to get this one right.
          Already on a -12 to get those 4 players in...

          1. FPL Equilibrium
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 11 months ago

            I’m going Salah over my triple Chelsea assets. KDB could be a great choice. Depends if you’re chasing the pack if so go KDB if not play it safe with Chelsea

            1. nerd_is_the_werd
              • 6 Years
              3 years, 11 months ago

              Looking like a last minute decision, thanks for the feedback.

  5. BremerHB
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Last choice for the WC:

    A) Robbo & KDH (5-4-1, KDH bench)
    B) Davies & Saka (4-5-1, Davies bench)

    1. luk46
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      A

    2. FPL Equilibrium
      • 4 Years

      A

  6. Bruno Commando
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 11 months ago

    Bottomed..On a WC, planning BB36 and FH37. Which combination is better?

    1) Son + (Dewsbury-Hall) + (Nketiah) + (Gelhardt)
    2) Kulu + (Gordon) + Werner + (Dennis), will bench Pukki this week

    Schmeichel (Foster)
    TAA Matip Cancelo Laporte James
    Salah Havertz KDB
    Pukki

    1. BremerHB
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      2 certainly allows you a more solid BB. If you’re not too bothered about making the most of the chip then I prefer Son tbh.

      1. Bruno Commando
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks mate! Personally leaning towards 2 but no Kane/Son bothers me...

    2. luk46
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      this is confusing tbf, not too confident about bbing with KDH and Gelhardt

      1. Bruno Commando
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Apologies for the confusion! But I get your point that BB-ing with KDH and Gelhardt isn't ideal 🙂

        1. luk46
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          np mate, if you think Son outscores Kulusevski massively, you should go A!

          1. Bruno Commando
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 11 months ago

            Essentially it's Son & Pukki vs Kulu & Werner. As long as Werner compensates by outscoring Pukki, I should be good!

    3. Wonderful Wizard Hazard
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      1

      1. Bruno Commando

    4. FPL Equilibrium
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 11 months ago

      2 100% for a bench boost most of 1 won’t even play

      1. FPL Equilibrium
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 11 months ago

        Also bench Dennis this week and play Pukki

        1. Bruno Commando
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 11 months ago

          Thanks mate! I'm playing the below team this week. Not sure who to drop for Pukki!

          Schmeichel
          TAA Matip Cancelo Laporte James
          Salah Havertz Kulu KDB
          Werner

    Guys FH activated. I had 2fts before I did. So I should have the 2 fts going into 35 right?

    1. luk46

  23. juicewagz
    • 10 Years

    Is this the right bench or should I get one Arsenal defence in the first XI? Chose to not double on Newcastle defence, and thought Kelechi could be benched because of Europe.
