FFS Cup

The latest FFS Cup fixtures and results

The fourth round of our FFS Cup took place in Gameweek 32+, with 64 Fantasy managers whittled down to 32 after its conclusion.

The fifth round is scheduled to play out in Gameweek 33+, the deadline for which is at 11.30am BST on Saturday.

ALL RESULTS FROM THE FOURTH ROUND CAN BE VIEWED HERE
THE FULL DRAW FOR THE FIFTH ROUND IS AVAILABLE TO VIEW HERE

Former winner Wild Rover saw off Hafizi39 in the round of 64 and will now take on Cailean_2 this weekend.

billybly was our highest-ranked FPL boss left in the competition but exited in the fourth round and dropped out of the top 1k in the process.

Manisaspor, who sits at 1,591st in the world, now takes on that mantle, with Dial Square just 35 places behind.

Johnnex023 was the only one FPL manager in round four who posted a triple-figure score in Gameweek 32+, racking up exactly 100 points.

Every single one of our remaining 32 managers is ranked inside the top 300,000.

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?

The FFS Cup competition will be played out according to the following proposed Gameweek schedule:

Fantasy Football Scout Cup Round Dates
Qualifying – Gameweek 28

Round 1 – Gameweek 29
Round 2 – Gameweek 30+
Round 3 – Gameweek 31+
Round 4 – Gameweek 32+
Round 5 – Gameweek 33+
Round 6 – Gameweek 34+
Quarter-Final – Gameweek 35+
Semi-Finals – Gameweek 36+
Final and third-place play-off – Gameweek 37+

WHEN ARE THE FIXTURES RELEASED?

Where possible, the fixture list for each round will be published before each Gameweek deadline.

    So if I follow the accepted thinking would i do:

    -4 for Mahrez in for KdB?

    Traore is my first sub and DCL second.

    I've put Foden on ahead of them both and playing 4.4.2 with strong defence all playing at home.

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Wouldn't do that for a hit. KDB rested one game isn't a biggie. You'll want him back

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Indeed, looking again Traore is a better pick at home to Arsenal and having the option of KdB to Foden or DCL sub?

  2. Runaway
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    A) Son + Guendouzi > Martial + Foden (bench DCL)
    B) Son + Guendouzi + DCL > Martial + Mahrez + Nketiah for -4 (bench Nketiah)
    C) Son + Guendouzi + DCL > Pulisic + Mahrez + Greenwood for -4 (don’t know who to bench)

    Front 8 atm :
    Salah KDB Son Bruno Guendouzi
    Rashford Jimi DCL

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Just Son > Mahrez.

  3. lifes a pitch
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Play Ings or Doherty ???

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Doherty IMO, most will say Ings

    2. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Doherty

    3. Disco Volante
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Doherty is about as likely to score as Ings this week imo.

    4. CostaCoffee
      • 10 Years

      Docs

    5. TomSaints
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Ings is a risk of benching and tough fixture. Arsenal have been pretty awful, expecting a Doherty attacking return

  4. ‘Tis the Season
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Percentage Greenwood starts please

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      60% for me

      1. ‘Tis the Season
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Thanks hoping it was higher

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Team selection has James back in place with Ole saying he needs to look after the youngsters.

          He could well start with his form tho for 60 mins.

    2. Puncheon Guly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      90. Decent rest, great performance, Mata, Lingard, James offering little competition, plus if Fernandes does have a knock it'll make it more likely.

      1. ‘Tis the Season
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Thanks mate. All to do with do I bring in Mané with Salah and ditch martial (have Bruno)

  5. FlyingCanary
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    On an WC, last piece of the jigsaw need a combination of 2 from these! any help welcome-
    1. Willian
    2. Antonio
    A.ings
    B.mahrez

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      2B.

      I quite like Antonio as a differential. Good fixtures and West Ham are very incentivized to do well.

    2. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      2B

      Antonio has been posting some very good stats.

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      2B certainly could be the answer!

    4. FlyingCanary
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Thanks for the replies, really appreciate it! 2B it is!

    Any news about Bruno..?

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      it was fake

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Yep, local Manchester papers have trashed it too.

        The Mirror is now printing stories picked up from paradoy sources.

  8. Bruno Commando
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Play 2:

    A) Saiss - ARS (H)
    B) Jimenez - ARS (H)
    C) Cantwell - BHA (H)
    D) Egan - BUR (A)

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years

      B and D

  9. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Who to cap? Bruno, Rashford, Mane?

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      rash

    2. Big Ronnie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Same choices, currently on Bruno but swaying towards Mane

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Form says Bruno but Rash is due some goals.

      He is positioned further wide supporting Martial and Bruno is more central too.

    Captain pick seems as difficult this week as last week, but somehow the candidates look a bit sharper with home games 🙂

    A) Salah
    B) Bruno
    C) Martial
    D) Rashford

    1. Jonesfromthere

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I don't think it's hard ultimately.

      Salah is at home against one of the worst teams in the league. After they got beat badly by City. Meanwhile, United assets you have no idea who will be in the points although they look very likely to haul vs Bournemouth.

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Agree and on Salah atm. But Villa has improved defensive

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Looks like the right order... Until a defender hauls!

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

    1. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Probably will be, but only for Norwich v Brighton

  14. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen

    Play
    1 Lascelles or

    Pope (Hendo)
    TAA Lascelles Saiss AWB (Taylor)

      2 A

    3. Muller Reus Corner

      1 and A

  15. B Sharp

    Fabianski

    Shaw - Gomez - Mendy - Ritchie --- Boly

    Willian -- Foden -- Sterling

    WC. G2G?

    Pope
    TAA, AWB, Doherty
    Sterling, Salah (C), Pulisic, Mahrez, Bruno
    Greenwood, Jimi

    Martin, Taylor, Kiko, Nkeitah

    1. ‘Tis the Season
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      How sure are you Greenwood starts mate?

      1. Athletic Dildao
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        His place to lose imo. At least for the rest of the season

      2. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        He could play the first 60 or the last 30 where pace and sharpness can explode for points too.

  17. Plagued by indecision
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Play Nketiah or Saiss? Doherty also on the pitch

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Saiss

    2. Athletic Dildao
      • 7 Years

      Saiss

      nketiah

    5. Goooo Rickie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Spread your risk, go with Eddie. I think he will start this one and Doherty offers attacking threat too.

  18. _Gunner
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Best 4.5 or cheaper defenders for this GW?

    1. Srv210
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Burnley,Newcastle defender

    2. Wally banter
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Garcia if you have a bench

  19. el polako
    • 6 Years

  21. tbs91
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    DCL & Jota > Greenwood & 8.5m
    3rd forward is Jimenez.
    Thoughts on Gayle, Giroud, or Maupay?

    Or do I keep DCL for one more week and upgrade non playing keeper to someone like Ryan/Martinez for a guaranteed start?
    Playing BB this week and have 2FT

    1. Srv210
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Maupay maybe

      1. tbs91
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah I do like his chances of a goal against Norwich who have conceded 8 in the last 3
        Cheers

  22. Srv210

    This will be my FH team

    Ryan
    TAA,VVD,AWB ,____
    Salah, Sterling,Mahrez,Bruno,Pulisic
    Rashford

    Fodder, Connoly,Nketiah,fodder

    For Last spot

    A) Laporte
    B) Doherty

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years

      A

    2. bombayblues
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Doherty for his attacking returns?

      1. Srv210
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Probably, wolves at home some chances of a cleanie too

    3. tbs91
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      For security of start, I'd have to go with Doherty.
      City more likely for a clean sheet, but Laporte is arguably due a rest

  23. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Gtg?

    Ederson
    Aurier Trent Doh
    Son Bruno KDB Mahrez Puli
    Jimenez Rash
    (Martin, Gwood, Lascelles, Kiko)

    1. Srv210

      Gtg

    2. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Might regret benching greenwood, would play lascelles over aurier

  24. Netters2018
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Play Lascelles or Connolly (not sure he will start as started last 2)

    1. Srv210
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Lascelles is injured ,won't play maybe

    2. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      lasc

  25. bombayblues
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Have the following team

    Pope (McC)
    TAA. Doherty. Saiss. Taylor (Baldock)
    KDB. Salah. Bruno (Cantwell. Hayden)
    Rashford. DCL. Jimi

    1 FT 2.0 ITB
    1. DCL + Cantwell = Nketiah + Martial ( for a -4)? Play 4-4-2

    Does it make sense to take a hit? Trailing in my ML by 8 points

  26. Pomp and Circumstance
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    who do you think gets more playing time between now and end of season--Mahrez or Foden? and which of the 2 is better on WC this week and BB next?

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Mahrez but Foden should play most games too

  27. Tomas Brolin ate all Depays
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Thoughts on KDB to Mahrez to fund Martial and Pulsic ?

  28. Jason M
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Ok I'm locked in (I think?)

    Pope
    AWB, TAA, Saiss
    Mahrez (c), Mané, Salah, Bruno, Cantwell,
    Jimi, Greenwood

    McCarthy, Ings, Lascelles, Egan

    Any glaring issues.

    Plan to get KDB back in next GW for one of Mahrez, Salah or Mané

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Cantwell for Ings.

      1. Jason M
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        This is the 50/50 decision. Ings has form but Southampton are generally very poor at home. If I have Cantwell at all, it's home games against Brighton I should be playing him surely. That my thought process anyway

  29. Angin out the Begović
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Best GW to use FH guys ?

    1. Jonesfromthere
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      38

  30. Ruffio
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    On this.

    De gea. (Martin)

    Trent. Saiss. C Taylor. (Lunds. Justin. )

    Bruno. Martial. KdB. Son. (Cantwel)

    Jimi. Jesus. Dcl

    0.5 itb 2 ft’s

    What would you do?
    Possibly want rid of dcl and maybe son to pulisic?
