The Pre-Season page is now live on Fantasy Football Scout.
This can be found by clicking on ‘Pre-Season’ in the top menu of the website.
From now until the start of 2019/20, you can head there for everything you need to know for the new FPL season.
What you will find right now is a list of pre-season fixtures for each top-flight team, editorial content written about them since the end of 2018/19, and the latest transfer news.
All of this is broken up into sections for each club, which also feature handy links through to their data profiles in the Members Area.
2019/20 Fixture Release Day took place on Thursday June 13 so the pre-season page already has our full analysis of the schedules.
This includes our initial reaction, an assessment of who has the best and worst fixtures in the early Gameweeks as well as a guide to FPL Fixture Rotation.
As the pre-season campaign winds on we will keep updating the page, making it an essential piece of regular reading as we edge closer to Gameweek 1.
The result of each friendly match, as well as competitive in the case of Liverpool, Manchester City and Wolves, will be added through the summer.
This update will include goal-scorers, assisters and links through to the Scout Notes articles written on the game – all collected in one place.
Any noteworthy developments in these matches, including positional deployments, injuries, potential out-of-position assets or ones that could provide exceptional value will also be gathered on the pre-season page.
This is one of the many reasons why it is so important to check in on this page regularly.
For example, within a few days of Crystal Palace’s pre-season campaign beginning last season, Fantasy Football Scout users were already aware of Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s potential as a viable £4.0m asset.
That was because we noticed how often he was starting their fixtures and informed our users on the pre-season page accordingly.
Furthermore, the form of Marko Arnautovic during West Ham’s 2018 pre-season programme, in which he registered five goals and one assist, was included on the page last year, leading to him providing great value in the early parts of 2018/19.
As the pre-season campaign continues to build up data, we will also be tracking pre-season minutes.
That means by the end of the summer schedule, Fantasy Football Scout users will have a complete list of how many minutes each FPL asset played during July and August.
This information will help inform our Gameweek 1 team selections and give us an idea of who the most nailed-on options are.
Each piece of additional content we produce in editorial will also be added to the pre-season page.
For example, we will have Members analysis on each of the 17 teams who retained their Premier League status in 2018/19, assessing where their best options could be in the upcoming campaign.
Also, once the FPL prices have been revealed we will begin analysing each position by cost bracket.
One of the most popular aspects of the summer months are transfers, and we have that angle covered too.
Each relevant purchase or sale made by Premier League clubs will be listed on the pre-season page and we will also cover the impact on FPL.
Every transfer that could affect the Fantasy landscape will warrant a Scout Report or Moving Target article and these will also be collected on the pre-season page.
All of this information should help best prepare to pick your final squad for the start of 2019/20 – so make sure you use it as much as possible.
