Round four of our latest FFS Members Cup takes place in Blank Gameweek 34, where 32 remaining Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers are competing for a £300 prize fund.

A tournament for Premium Members, this is independent of those you can see on the official FPL website.

We’ll bring you the latest results in this article, plus the second-round draw, with a full breakdown of prizes towards the bottom.

FFS MEMBERS CUP

A complete list of round three results

The highest-ranked manager heading into Double Gameweek 33 was also one of its unluckiest losers. 83 points helped CasaBanter rise from 258th to 181st in the world standings but – while J Aravind (63 points) and CathyM (64) progressed – he came up short against glennloite‘s huge tally of 106.

Such a Bench Boost included successful Arsenal duo Leandro Trossard and Jakub Kiwior, yet Si incredibly went one better by captaining the Belgian’s week-high 24 points. Also an owner of Ryan Sessegnon, this team accumulated a whopping 119 points.

TD Jakes (4,130th) is now the highest remaining manager after defeating Cornish Pasty Man 74-67. And the lowest-ranked, schnuggi (4,308458th), was another to benefit from Trossard during the 94-62 win over Kezzy.

Looking ahead, the round of 32 should involve a lot of Free Hit chips. A template will likely be established before the deadline, leading to close contests and an increased desire to find that mega-differential which beats the opponent.

Based on the low combined positions of both competitors, the crunch clash pits Crispo (57,141st) against Robben Me Blind (72,113rd).

The full fourth-round draw is available here

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?

Both these cup competitions will be played out according to the following proposed Gameweek schedule, though this could be subject to change.

​​Fantasy Football Scout Members Cup Round Dates​

  • Qualifying – Gameweek 30
  • Round 1 – Gameweek 31

  3. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I already Salah and will get taa so teble pool might be too much?

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Planning to go triple Pool, myself. Team below.

  4. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Triple Liverpool + double Newcsatle midfield:

    Sanchez
    RAN Robinson Kerkez
    Salah Diaz Jota Murphy Barnes
    Isak Cunha

    1. boombaba
      • 12 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Needs Trent pal

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Have thar draft too;) But think the three mids will have higher Upside.

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I think treble pool mid is a bit much especially with other options available. GL 🙂

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Here's the other draft:

        Sanchez
        TAA TrIppier RAN
        Salah Barnes Kluivert Diaz Palmer
        Isak Cunha

        Jorgensen Welbeck Estupinan Milenkovic

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          7 months, 15 days ago

          V nice.

    3. Pep bites Kun
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Will those 3x Liv mf play 90? There are other nailed talismanic mf's to choose from for FPL points. Too many eggs, etc.

  5. boombaba
    • 12 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Trippier or Alt Nouri

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I prefer ran as I will go for treble Newcastle attack. I think both will do well

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Isak, Barnes, Murphy?

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          7 months, 15 days ago

          That's my trio so far

    2. Pep bites Kun
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I'm on both. Newc mf is the difficulty

  6. Cluckfuster
    • 14 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    What move should I make in order to field a full XI this coming gameweek (and keep for the rest of the season)?

    1. Gvardiol to Ait-Nouri
    2. Saka to Bruno
    3. Mateta to Chris Wood

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      3

      1. RoyaleBlue
        • 14 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        3 feels best long term

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      1

  7. RoyaleBlue
    • 14 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Right, gonna back against Fulham and Chelsea:

    Sa
    RAN TAA Kerkez
    Salah(C) Diaz Barnes Murphy
    Isak Cunha Eva

    Triple Newcastle attack instead of a defender. Double Wolves def (RAN points alone will be worthless). Backing Bou to do over United.

    Not crazy differential, but enough to make the gameweek somewhat interesting?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Really like it gl

    2. Buck The Trent
      • 14 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I have 10 similar lol, see below

  8. Buck The Trent
    • 14 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    How does this FH team look?

    Leno
    TAA RAN Kerkez
    Salah Banes Murphy Diaz
    Isak Cunha Welbeck

    Kepa Kluivert Cucu Sess

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      V nice !!!

  9. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    I am somehow a bit surprised by the amount of teams with diaz..is that because managers are relying on spurs being atrocious???

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I have Diaz right now too, great home stats, Spurs are tragic, Pool will push to celebrate championship in style

    2. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      He roasted them in the reverse fixture.

  10. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    What are the perks of picking Raul?
    Maybe it’s confirmation bias but:

    - out of form Fulham playing away against improved Saints
    - he didn’t get much game time recently, not sure about his confidence in front of goal
    - then, the total of 1 goal, 5 shots and 3 KP in last 5 league games he featured anyhow (shooting stats looked much better in February)

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      He seems to be similar pick to Palmer lol

    2. Weak Become Heros
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      True. Who would pick out of Raul or Welbeck?

      1. Silecro
        • 8 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Welbeck, should be on pens without Pedro

      2. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Welb all the way, for me it’s Isak, Cunha and one of Welb/Larsen/Eva

        1. Bluetiger1
          • 3 Years
          7 months, 15 days ago

          unless playing 5 in midfield instead of 4

    3. Silecro
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Fulham attack doesnt inspire me with confidence. I'll personally go with just Sessegnon who gives you at least 2 bites at a cherry, for cs and attacking return (since he plays as a winger)

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Same here!

    4. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Yeah much better options elsewhere. I am getting Welbeck 😉

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Tempted to punt on double Wolves fwds but considering him as well

        1. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          7 months, 15 days ago

          Could even add Bowen as well and count on goals

    5. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Horrible pick… with a great fixture

  11. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 8 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Who to start on FH34:
    1) Barnes or Murphy? (the other won't be in my squad)
    2) Wood or Bowen?

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 8 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Sa
      TAA RAN Livra
      Salah Diaz Palmer Barnes/Murphy
      Isak Cunha Wood
      Kepa Bowen Cucu Sess

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      1 flip a coin. Maybe Murphy more nailed ?
      2 wood for sure

      1. My heart goes Salalalalah
        • 8 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Thanks. Wish I was as certain on nr.2 🙂

    3. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      1. Barnes

      2. Wood

      1. My heart goes Salalalalah
        • 8 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Thanks

  12. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Pick Evanilson or Kluivert?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Kluivert on pens and Cs point.

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        So Kluivert + Welbeck over Palmer + Evanilson?

        1. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          7 months, 15 days ago

          Everyone over Palmer

        2. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          7 months, 15 days ago

          K and w for sure

    2. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I’m just curious if Kluivert is actually back to his best, otherwise you relay on the penalties

      1. Andrew D48
        • 3 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        He is playing Utd tho that will help

      2. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Man utd might also be tragic 🙂

  13. Ohh1454
    • 8 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Is double up of Kluviert and Evanilison to much on FH ? Maybe Bowen over Kluviert ?

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Too much imo, I like Bowen

    2. boombaba
      • 12 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      K

  14. Silecro
    • 8 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Any news on Jose Sa?

  15. Stranger Mings
    • 5 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    How's this fh34 please (0.2 itb)
    Leno
    Trent cucu ran
    Diaz salah Barnes murphy
    Isak cunha wood
    (Sanchez palmer sess semedo)

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I like it

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        Cheers

    2. Feanor
      • 16 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Arrizabalaga GK

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        You reckon bou keep cleansheet v MU?

  16. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Is it just me going with Strand Larsen on my FH?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I think folks will double up with cunha

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 12 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        He has 5 goals in his last 5 games facing a team that has 1 CS all season

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I like Strand over Cunha. Good differential.

    3. boombaba
      • 12 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I’ve got him with cuntha

    4. Haa-lala-land
      • 5 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      When Strand and Cunha played together though, pre glasses-gate, strand was pushed to the side and Cunha hoovered all the points.

      SL has done well while Cunhas out, but it's possible the partnership returns to what it was, one sided in Cunhas favour, and SL peripheral

  17. Tommy Template
    • 11 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Who do we think are the players who won't be in FH teams but will be in normal teams who'll go well? Pickford, Bruno F, Palmer, Mbeumo (although hes creeping into more FH teams), Wissa all possible candidates. Aaron Ramsdale's obviously in neither and he gets player of the week cleaning and saving a Jimi penalty

    1. Tommy Template
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      How did I forget Pedro Porro? Only double digit haul this season came at the Etihad. Surely due another at Anfield

  18. boombaba
    • 12 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Salad or Isak cap

  19. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 8 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Now I'm considering Evanilson over Wood. Y or N?

    1. luk46
      • 7 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      ye I like it

  20. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Don't like this on Muniz. Silva is a slippery muther.

    "Probably, we’re almost sure, that Rodrigo is going to be, unfortunately, out for the next game."

    1. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I’d be very surprised if we saw Muniz again this season

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        I don't like that almost bit.

      2. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        I wanted Muniz around this time. Oh well, too many forwards too chose from as it is, and he was always going to be a luxury move.

  21. KeanosMagic
    • 3 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Strand Larsen, Jimenez or Welbeck for the 3rd striker spot?

    Strand on form
    Jiminez nailed
    Welbeck bit of a differential

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Strand

    2. luk46
      • 7 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      I got larsen and might wanna go welbeck as well so between these 2

    3. One for All
      • 7 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Welbeck

  22. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    With changes:

    Sanchez
    TAA RAN Robinson
    Salah Diaz Barnes Murphy
    Isak Cunha StrandLarsson

    Jorgensen Kluivert Estupinan Milenkovic

  23. liboo
    • 8 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    I have 7 players playing this week shall i

    A. Make -4 and play 9 players and keep the FH

    B. Use the FH

    ????

    1. One for All
      • 7 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      A

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      A

  24. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    people not going for Sessegnon anymore?

    from the comments it seems like he will start

    1. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      50/50 at the moment

      three scores in last four games -playing as a winger

  25. Tinfoil Deathstar
    • 5 Years
    7 months, 15 days ago

    Anyone not on FH considering Cunha as a transfer in?

    Or are his xMins too uncertain?

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Not this week. But he is on my watchlist with a few others. I don't really trust him. See what happens this week.

      My current front 3 is Isak, Wissa, and Mateta. The only one I really want to sell is Mateta, so I have one place for Wood / Cunha/ Strand / Marmoush. Need to choose one of them for the rest of the season, so it needs to be the right pick.

    2. shirtless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Prob will bring in for Mateta but I'm wildcarding next week and will move on for Wood and Marmoush in the hope of a double. Not definite though however I have to make two transfers to get XI out whatever happens.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        If it was me, I'd go Strand as a differential pick and hope Cunha either gets benched, or trolls people for the third time this season. I like differentials though, so maybe you wont like that idea.

    Help! Who’s the best AM starting this week?
    Much appreciate all comments

    1. Tommy Template
      • 11 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Bookies give the best chance of table bonus upset to Frank and best outright chance to Howe (also high on goals and cs chance this week) so depends on your risk appetite. There are other factors to consider such as do you want to use a FT on them next week, budget, do you own 3 of someone already etc

      1. bso
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        521K so need to buck it up. Think Howe can beat BRE and the following two teams for sure with hopefully many goals, so he is probably my safest bet.
        Thanks mate

    2. Admiral Benson
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      7 months, 15 days ago

      Maybe Frank for table bonus. Brentford could beat Forest

      1. bso
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        7 months, 15 days ago

        NF goals agains them 11 - BRE 22....so think NF have a good chance of winning AB. They do score well though. Such a toss up. Cheers mate

        1. bso
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          7 months, 15 days ago

          Sorry meant NF (h) conceded 11 goals vs other teams. BRE 22.

        Agree it's a good one but I wouldn't trust them to win the following two games. Would take a AM transfer.

    Anyone else saving a chip for 38? BB for me, normally I play it in GW1. This season, no particularly great time stood out to me, so 38 seems like a fun week to play it.

      Great shout mate - used all my chips now unfortunately

        TBH, I just looked at what potential team I might have in 38. Its such mixed fixtures, its really hard to call them. 38 is always wild too. I am sure there will be a better time to play it, but its just a nice end to the season. So hopefully I hold my nerve for it.

        Happy belated Birthday btw. I saw Merlin or someone mention.

    On a FH - Thinking of taking a punt on Fulham Defender away to Southampton away from template,
    which option best?

    1. Sessegnon (marked as defender - playing midfielder/wing)

    or

    2. Robinson

    First time I've reopened the app to look at my team and not instantly hated it. So, GTG?

    Sa
    Kerkez RAN Trent
    Salah Diaz Mbuemo Murphy Barnes
    Isak Cunha

    Leno Welbeck sessegnon Cucurella

      Sa may not play and Cunha is a minutes risk apparently. I am also looking at Cunha and am 50-50 because of this

        If you get Sa, just get Bentley too.
