Alongside FanTeam’s Regular Season and EPL Unlimited games are two weekly signature events – the Monster and Big Pick 6.
The latter is a similar sort of one-week selection to Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Challenge, except with a £2 entry fee and £10,000 prize pool that rewards the top 20% of managers.
Join the FanTeam fun: Big Pick 6
From three selected top-flight meetings, you can pick any six players.
Throughout the day, these will gain points from goals, assists, clean sheets, saves and shots on target but could also lose some for cards, penalty misses and own goals. There’s also a punishment for stacking multiple defensive clean sheets from the same club.
Meanwhile, there is no budget and no positional restrictions. The only barrier is limiting yourself to a maximum of three players per team.

Gameweek 7 picks
Sunday’s contest is super-easy to enter and is an additional way to enjoy the three chosen matches:
- Chelsea v Nottingham Forest
- Aston Villa v Manchester United
- Brighton and Hove Albion v Tottenham Hotspur
Although the selection of three Spurs players suggests domination, their trip to Brighton could truly go either way. Surely with lots of goals.
No team has accumulated more big chances (26) or shots on target (43) than Ange Postecoglou’s lot, with Pedro Porro being the league’s leading defender for attempts (11).
Both he and Brennan Johnson could exploit the space behind the Seagulls’ attacking full-back Pervis Estupinan. Statistics have long suggested that the midfielder is worth owning, it’s not just about his back-to-back goals versus Brentford and Man United.
Last season, Johnson was the league’s second-biggest expected goals (xG) underachiever (-5.61) and he’s currently joint-second for penalty area touches (52). All 18 shots have taken place inside the box, too.
Team-mate Dominic Solanke is another to net in successive games. Despite only playing four of six occasions, he ranks joint-third for big chances (eight) alongside Nicolas Jackson, with Ollie Watkins (11) as number one.
Additionally, Jackson is joint-third for attempts on target (nine), though he’ll face a strong Nottingham Forest defence that has allowed the fewest of them (17) and recently pulled off a shock 1-0 win at Liverpool. But with Christopher Nkunku playing on Thursday night, Jackson should lead the line for a Chelsea team with 15 goals.
As for Watkins, it took until match four for him to open the floodgates, bagging four in his latest three. We saw against Bayern Munich that Villa fear no-one, especially not an under-pressure Erik ten Hag.
Last but not least, Cole Palmer. The hero and villain of many Gameweek 6 Fantasy managers, he scored a phenomenal four first-half goals last Saturday, showcasing his penalty and free-kick threats. He’s also created the second-most big chances (seven), helped by his Gameweek 2 hat-trick of assists. Palmer is the whole package.

Flekken
Gabriel - Lewis - Davis
Palmer - Saka - Mbeumo - Johnson - McNeil
Haaland - Havertz
Fabianski - Raul - Van den Berg - Greaves
1) Would you go McNeil or Rogers?
2) Davis is a bit of a gamble, just looking for upside here really
3) Not convinced by Flekken, would just be playing the fixtures.
