Today should be savoured – once the final whistles are blown, we wave goodbye to Fantasy Football for an excruciating few months – all the more reason to squeeze every bit of excitement out of Sunday’s action.

Fantasy Premier League is doubtless your main course but, if you’ve yet to try out FanDuel this season, we’ve set up one final exclusive contest to offer you an opportunity to get involved.

We hope to be partnering with FanDuel next season and we know that there is a good deal of the community who have played and enjoyed the game in its first term.

For today, you can register an account, make a deposit and take place in a Fantasy Football Scout contest that gives you the chance to humiliate both Jonty and myself for the chance to win £50 in cash.

This “Beat the Scout” contest is free to enter.

Just register, deposit some funds in your account for next season and pick your line-up.

Everyone who surpasses the score produced by the team that Jonty and I are putting together will be entered into a draw to win £50 in cash – that’s cash, not credit.

Those already registered can also take part but, if you are new to the game, be sure to soak up the Weekly Shop and FanDuel Focus articles published earlier in the week.

They should help you with the nucleus of your line-up, plus you can tweak once the teamsheets come out, right up until the 3pm kick-offs.

Our current line-up is below – although be warned – the discussion is ongoing and Kane is coming in.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

  1. FPL ElasticO

    Who to transfer out for Coutinho??

    A. Alli
    B. Eriksen

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Probably A as he seems like he's already on his holidays a bit

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Alli

  2. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Think I have decided Alli to Coutinho with free tranfer. Logic being I have Spurs cover with Kane, Yoshida a good back up as first sub and I detect on here bit of a swing towards keeping Hazard?

    A Yes
    B No transfer Hazard to Coutinho

    Caballero
    BDavies Monreal Alonso
    Sanchez Hazard Coutinho King Sane
    Kane Jesus

    Pickford Yoshida Gabbiadini Mustafi

    1. WUSS
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      A. doing the same

  3. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Any chance Kane is rested today? They won't want to risk him getting injured which will significantly push down the transfer fee in the summer?

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Literally zero chance

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Behave

    3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Poch already said he wants him to secure the golden boot by scoring v hull

    4. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Why play him last week?

    5. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      erm...

    6. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Haha, good one 🙂

    7. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      There is a higher chance I go home with Victoria Secret model tonight than Kane not starting.

  4. mr messi
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    I'm 21 points ahead of 2 rivals, one has Alli and one has Hazard. I have both and Eriksen. I should keep Alli and Hazard and lose Eriksen for Coutinho, right?

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Yes

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      If you want to beat them.

      1. mr messi
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks, think that's the sensible move.

  5. Evasivo
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Play Monreal or Albrighton?

    1. nonprophet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I'm captaining Alonso. Mini league's won, and happy with 55k

    2. Conveyancing Reptilian Over…
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I have the same problem, I got A0A, but not sure if I should use it...

    3. willgriggsonfire
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Alb

    4. PEP G
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Monreal, for me

    5. nonprophet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Sorry meant monreal

  6. Zizou
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Hazard Sanchez Eriksen king sane
    Kane Gabbi Jesus

    Is hazard > coutinho the most sensible move.
    I'm chasing 24 pts.

    anything worth 4pt hit or just bench king or Gabbi and which one

    1. Zizou
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      No Chelsea cover if I lose hazard

    2. Shakshuka
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Got pretty much identical team and not sure myself.. Have you considered Gabbbi - > Origi? Feel uneasy about losing Haz

    3. JRM
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I've taken out Hazard for Coutinho. Conte said he'll put out a strong team, but William and Pedro are both excellent choices. Maybe Hazard will start, but he might come off. I just feel like Coutinho is a safer option with similar potential for goals/assists. Tough one though.

  7. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Feeling a bit silly now for doing hazard to coutinho. Bet hazard scores a brace

  8. Lew
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Rate their chances (%) of starting today:

    Gibbs
    Holding
    Pedro

    1. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      25%
      75%
      75%

  9. Godot - Fashanu Zealand
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    G2G? I still have one FT, though Hazard -> Fabregas could backfire badly.

    Cabellero (Cech)
    Alonso Monreal Yoshida (Stephens) (Holgate)
    Sanchez Hazard Eriksen Coutinho King
    Kane (C) Jesus (Anichebe)

  10. justmatt
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Last and very boring transfer of the season... Gabbi to who? I'm leaning towards Vokes atm.

    A - Llorente
    B - Vokes

    1. Klip Klopp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Where has sll this sudden love for Vokes come from?

      1. Hybrid.power
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Sheep

    2. Zizou
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Thinking same myself but might just bench and play king

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        bench and play King mate

  12. TheBear
    • 16 Years

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years

      Yep G2G

    2. PEP G
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Solid team. good luck buddy

  13. Mike82
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    134 points clear but 2nd has TC to play, we both have Kane, Sanchez, KDB, Jesus, who will he captain and who should I? Thinking Kane.

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      It doesn't matter

    2. Mike82
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I'm Vulnerable

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He'll go Kane

    4. Caleb's Kitties
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      134 pts just play your own game

  14. Junior ⚽
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Kane or Sanchez (C)
    Stats say Kane right?

    1. Klip Klopp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah just

    2. Mike82
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I think I'm going Kane but Sanchez has something to play for and form.

    3. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Coin toss

    4. PEP G
      • 9 Years

  15. The EJJ
    • 14 Years

      Yep

    2. WUSS

      8 years, 6 months ago

      Alli

    3. Darklord_bg

      Alli or noone

  16. Klip Klopp

    1. Darklord_bg
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Stephens

  17. barracuda
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Costa and Hazard

    2 BOLD DIFFERENTIALS 😉

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Both over 30% owned...

      1. barracuda
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        In top 20k? Not after this week- no.

  18. Dirty Harry
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Start Hennessey or Pickford?

  19. steve606
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Any help here?
    My current team is
    Cech
    Alonso Stephens Davies
    Sane Pedro Sanchez(TC) King
    Kane Costa Jesus

    Sane to Cout appeals but would be for -4. Do I stick or twist?

    1. 1NVINCIBLES
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Stick. Good luck!

  20. 1NVINCIBLES
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Ticker not loading. Probably doesn't matter since it's the last gameweek but thought worth a mention.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Nah, wasn't worth it.

  21. jdwhalley
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Alli or Ozil --> Coutinho?

    I have Sanzhez and person chasing me has Alli

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Block him.

    2. Rash
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      alli

    3. Rash
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      sorry mis read... what epic said

    4. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He might do Alli to Coutinho then. I would

  22. Tomas Brolin ate all Depays
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Any def worth a -4?

    I've Alonso Stephens Yoshida but have £2m itb so could upgrade Benalouone or Holgate and bench Stephens...

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      No

  23. asif316uk
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Mignolet* (Pickford)
    Matip* Davies Stephens (Ake Holding)
    Hazard* Alexis Coutinho Fabregas* KDB
    Kane Jesus (Crouch*)

    Currently - Mignolet Matip Fabregas Hazard (3-5-2)
    Or
    Cabellero Lovren Eriksen Sturridge. (3-4-3)

    Stick or twist?

    Third option is.. aguero in for Jesus, KDB to King

    On WC thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

  24. Trovsmash
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    This is how my ML ends up, im 3 points up, he has BB

    Me

    Cech
    Cahill Monreal Stephens
    LDB King Pedro Sanchez (C) Coutinho
    Kane Jesus

    Him

    Caballero
    Alonso Yoshi Holding
    KDB Sanchez Zaha King Pedro
    Kane Jesus

    Pickford Kelly Negredo Benalouane

    Im praying holding and Alonso both miss out and cahill stars, and his bench is pants so im hoping he doesnt get much off the BB.

    i wont have any nails left after this one, with $500 on the line

  25. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Is Coutinho the most transferred in GW38 transfer of all time?

    1. Deano
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Lallana to steal their thunder!

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Maybe

      I think aguero v QPR was close

    3. PEP G
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I didnt get him tho.

  26. Deano
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Posted on old thread.

    % ownership and armband on Kun in the top 1K anyone?

  27. Pedaso Pirates
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    How about Lallana and Sturridge for Hazard and Gabbi (-4)?
    Or do what everyone else is doing, Alli or Hazard for Coutinho...

  28. Rash
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    A. son
    B sturridge

    1. PEP G
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      A

  29. Blue Gaffer
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Tadic & Gabbiadini------Coutinho & Barnes -4 (Keep Alli) yes or no?

    1. PEP G
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      yes. you got to get rid of Gabbiadini. Austin is back.

  30. Shifty
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    30 point ahead of main rival...I've got Coutinho already, he's got Vardy.

    Not sure what move he's made but I think he will keep Vardy.

    Do Gabbi > Vardy to block him, or double up with Sturridge for flair?

    1. Trovsmash
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      block with vardy

    2. PEP G
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      how about Llorente?
