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. WE GO FOR IT
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    A few quick questions to sort my team:

    1. Pick one
    A. Eriksen
    B. Sane (To block my rival)

    2. Safest Chelsea defender to get in?

    3. Who to captain?
    S. Sanchez (rival will mostly captain him)
    K. Kane

    PS: I'm 23 points ahead in my ML

      2. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…

    • Kurtinho
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I really think Lallana will be the one to have this week. Wish I had the guts to go for him, but had to block my rival with Coutinho.

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

        thoughts on studge?

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

          Get him if you can afford!

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

            torn between studge and coutinho rival has neither

        This!

    • AA33
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Bench one :

        Coutinho Eriksen Pedro Sane King
        Kane Costa Jesus

        1. 1966 was a great year for E…
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          King

        2. Stats Don\'t Lie
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I see I'm not the only one with a benching headache, would have to say sane I think

        3. Kurtinho
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Has to be King, unfortunately. Maybe Eriksen if you can't bring yourself to bench King.

      • Shifty
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Play Albrighton (AOA) or Stephens lads?

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

          Alb imo. Has been very decent last 3-4 games.

        2. Your Mum's Athletic
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          AOA

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

            Cheers YMA, good luck for tonight!

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

          Stephens

      • halfwhere
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Why no love for Lallana? Very cheap cover indeed?

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

          6.7 is a steal

        2. MrZ
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Not playing up front?

      • zacdawesome
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Ake or Clyne?

      • Bullet Eder
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Cab

        Davies, Yoshida, Stephens, Alonso

        King, Hazard, Eriksen, Sanchez

        Kane (C) Jesus

        Leading mini leagues by a small margin and I've got one free transfer. Genuinely don't see where I can use it to improve the above team.

        Gabbiadini is my third striker, benching him in favour of 4-4-2.

        Any suggestions?

      • The Wizard of Ozil
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Nothing left to play for so some last day fun

        Hazard & Gabbi out Pedro & Sturridge(c)

        Good luck all

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

          Nice moves. Can see Sturridge scoring a brace.

          1. The Wizard of Ozil
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Fingers crossed sitting at 6k so this will either get me into the top 5k or back out of the top 10k

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

              Nice rank. Go for it!

      • Rabbinton
        • 12 Years

        Is KDB expected to start?

        1. George Sillett
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Eh ? Why wouldn't he ?

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

            Because.... Pep

      • Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        It's fun chasing a ML rival..Not so much when you're on top with a +160 advantage

        1. ★Kuntheman★
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

        Valencia to ?

        1. Your Mum's Athletic
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Keep and depends on your defender, I like Matip this week, he's due 😉

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

          valencia has to go unless you have adequate backup

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

          Velencia will not play 100%

      • Z3US
        • 8 Years

        Cabby or Forster in goal.... Thanks!

        I've got Koscielny and Bailly both flagged as doubts, which one should I start? My other benched defender is Adam Smith.

        1. Your Mum's Athletic
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Start Kos, he'll start or won't be risked surely?!
