Win a share of €250,000 in FanTeam’s new Champions League Fantasy game


Sponsored by FanTeam


The UEFA Champions League returns after its winter break and with it comes yet another chance of winning a life-changing sum of money, thanks to FanTeam.

Fantasy managers can put their European football knowledge to the test in the €250K Champions League Knockout Rounds game, which comes with a first prize of €25,000.

This is a completely new tournament that does not require involvement in the previous group stage game – so sign up now and get your teams in before the deadline on Tuesday.

As the name of the game suggests, there is a total of €250,000 (or £225,000, in English money) in the kitty, with the top 2,513 managers walking away with cash prizes.

With a maximum of 15,000 entries permitted and, at the time of writing, only around 900 teams currently entered, the odds are very favourable for those who know their Liverpools from their Leipzigs.

Entries cost just €25 (or £22.50), a sum that many of us will have readily forked out in our Fantasy Premier League mini-leagues in the past.

Up to 50 teams per user are allowed, too.

Even better: the scoring system is very similar to FPL, so skills are easily transferred from one game to the other.

HOW TO PLAY: A BRIEF GUIDE

Slightly different from the group stage game, FanTeam managers are given a budget of €90m to build a team of 11 players that includes at least one goalkeeper, three defenders, two midfielders and one forward.

There is no bench or manual substitutes; instead, there is a ‘Safety Net’ feature. If a player in your Fantasy team isn’t in the starting XI for their side, they will automatically be substituted for the next priced player from the same position and club.

Captains score double points, as usual, while there are no price changes to worry about!

SCORING SYSTEM

Seasoned FPL managers, or those playing FanTeam’s €1m season-long Premier League game, should have no problem in adjusting to the €250K Champions League Knockout Rounds game.

The familiar scoring system is shown above, with the minor differences outlined below.

KEY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FANTEAM AND FPL
  • There is no Bonus Points System, which is replaced by plus/minus points if a team is winning/losing during the period a player is on the pitch.
  • Goalkeepers get 0.5 points for every save made, unlike the one point awarded in FPL for increments of three stops.
  • Committing a foul that leads to a free-kick goal or converted penalty is penalised by minus two points.
  • Midfielders and forwards get an extra point for completing the full match.

    Might have been asked already but does anyone know when it will be confirmed if GW26 is a double and for which teams?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Nothing is confirmed yet.

    2. Nanoelektronicar
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I just hope it won't be something like Friday evening, too late for good plan, but not too late to say you didn't have all the info.

    3. Rupert The Horse

      Next week I hope.

    Would you captain Raphina over Bam if you had both?

    1. jomikijiq
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      no

    2. Fudgy
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Bamford edges him on xg in the last 6 games

    3. Nanoelektronicar
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Bamford has assist potential too, and penalties, that wins for me.

      1. The Mantis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah fair enough, plus most are probably going to Captain Bam so if I go the other way and it doesn't pay off I could fall well behind in ML's

    4. popey

      only if massively chasing, be a lovely punt for rank if it came off though

    Non-Mee owners moaning that Mee is out being bad for them while Mee owners quietly take it on the chin. Respect to Mee owners.

    1. Nanoelektronicar

      Mee owners reconciled with their fate, us Lowton Pope doublers still have to go through agony of will it be won't be clean sheet.

    2. Hazz

      • 6 Years

      They know what they're doing. In reality it's bad for all involved, but at the end of the day 1 > 0.

    3. jomikijiq

      Non-Mee Burnley single def owners moaning make 0 sense with BUR def EO over 100 with Mee

      I have Lowton but not laughing at Mee owners because I know some of them will have a last laugh when both Stones and Cancelo in my team will get benched while Dias in their team starts 🙂

      Mee should be back next game right?

    Just looking at GW 25

    a) play Soucek (liv) or Watkins (LEI)
    b) Raphinha (wol, SOU) & -4points

  6. WVA

    RP anything wrong with this WC team? A better defender than Lowton for a similar price?

    GW25

      Southampton DGW26 is unlikely (I made same mistake with my draft!). I'm looking at Shaw, Lowton/Konsa, Struijk.

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Damn!

        1. Catastrophe
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Back to the drawing board 😀

          For me it meant DCL in for DGW26, which at least frees up some cash.

  7. Catastrophe
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Help greatly appreciated chaps and apologies for the long post! How do the below WC25 and BB26 Teams look?

    25:
    Areola (Martinez)
    Struijk*, Shaw, Dias (Stones, Konsa)
    Raphinha*, Salah, Fernandes, Gundogan (Son)
    Ings*, Bamford*, Kane

    26 (Ings & Raphinha -> DCL & Barnes (-4)
    Martinez*, Areola
    Stones*, Dias*, Konsa*, Shaw*, Struijk
    Salah*, Gundogan*, Fernandes*, Son*, Barnes*
    Kane*, DCL*, Bamford

    Assumes no Southampton DGW in 26. Some cheaper options like Struijk/Konsa over Dallas/Targett that allows me to keep hold of Salah into GW27 (FUL). Carries 2 Leeds into BGW29 too.

    Cheers.

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      BB with Areola Bamford Konsa Struijk... Why not Johnstone over Areola and then maybe Aina over Konsa to avoid double up?

      1. Catastrophe
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers. Pretty cheap BB but retains players for BGW29 and allows me to keep hold of Salah (more balanced drafts needed downgrade to Rashford or Grealish). Could consider that, cheers.

          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Same... if anything I'm more excited by this as I reckon he'll be getting into the box more and Sheff Utd concede lots from set pieces.

      5. jomikijiq
        • 8 Years

        who do people have subbing in if he's out?

            • 9 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Ouch. I left him second on the bench fortunately, really really scared of some odd Coufal benching now.

            • 9 Years

            That's exciting actually. I wish I had him instead of Coufal.

        6. Camzy

          This creates a real dilema for me, as a WHU fan and an Antonio owner, I want us to win but need SHU to score as my ML rival has Coufal !!!!.........

        • Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Soucek hattrick is the obvious consequence of this development

          1. Nanoelektronicar
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            With tripe Coufal cross assists I hope. Ok, I'll give one to Cresswell owners.

            1. Pompel

              I can confirm this. Sold Soucek and benching Coufal

        Bit of advice would be great here please:

        Pope
        DALLAS Cancelo Shaw
        Bruno Grealish Gundo Salah Barnes
        INGS BAMFORD

        Martinez, Antonio, Rudiger, Stones

        2FT - 1.8m itb

        I wanted to BB in GW26 and want Kane in, but does anyone know what to do with the transfer this week?

        Should I do Antonio to DCL? Saints are not going to have a double are they? I could then do Kane for Ings, and Bamford to someone for the double?

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Antonio out does make sense.
          Poor old Micky needs to be retired and put out to stud.

          1. StayoutheSpiceZone
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Do u reckon DCL for the double or Watkins?

            1. Fulchester's New Centr…
              • 6 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Looking longer term, Watkins

      11. Ohh1454
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Looking at this WC card. Thoughts ? Will do raphina to Barnes for gw26.
        Ederson Areola
        Cancelo Shaw Pereria Targett Konsa
        Raphina Madisson Bruno Son Gundogan
        Bamford Watkins Kane

        1. popey
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          personally would prefer Emi/Stones to Eder/Konsa

          otherwise looks really good

      12. Gudjohnsen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        So is Bamford the obvious captain choice next gw or are there better options with 1 game?

        1. Nanoelektronicar
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Kane, Bruno, Gundogan is what comes to my mind, but Bamford and Ings win for me.

        2. jomikijiq
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Bamford is clearly the best imo

          Raphinha & Ings are also better than any SGW player

      13. Champions League Varane
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Thoughts on BB26 WC team?
        Will do Raphina and Bamford to Watkins and Barnes in 26

        Martinez Areola
        Shaw Cancelo Stones Burn El Mohamedy
        Son Salah Bruno Barnes Gundogan
        Maja Kane Watkins

        1. Rhodes your boat
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Is Elmo likely to get game time?

          1. Champions League Varane
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            If Cash is out he’s the only option on the provision he is he will be in my team, also has assist potential

            1. popey
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 5 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Elmo only if confirmation Cash is out or a while, you are right with no Guilbert there is ne real alternative. Last year Konsa played RB a little but cant see us breaking up the CB pairing on current form

            2. Rhodes your boat
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Thanks for the info missed the cash news

      14. Kodap
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        If you own both Ings and Bamford... who do you captain?

        1. La Roja
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Ings

          1. Champions League Varane
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Why? Chelsea is 2 points imo

            1. La Roja
              • 12 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Because everyone has different opinion

              • 14 Years

              Why not?

        2. Flair

          Patrick Ings

        3. Sean

          Bamford

        Casual Lowton non owners clearly didn't check his elite 1 in 8 record for Sheff Utd from 2007-12. Was always coming

        1. Steve The Spud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          He was the obvious choice after all his marauding runs of late

          1. Mr. O'Connell
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Lol

          2. Nanoelektronicar
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            I just picked him because he's cheap. Not going to lie. And because I stole that idea from others.

        2. popey
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          and don't forget his wonder goal for Villa v Stoke

          tbf I, like many just got him because he was cheap and didn't want funds tied up in a player that i will only start for 2 GWs. His stats were comparable in last 6 to the CB's too on comparison tool in members area

      16. La Roja
        • 12 Years

        Has Dyche said anything about Pieters?

        1. Sean
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I think I saw the words "Touch and go" quoted

              You gloated Martinez on BB too much Fudgeman. It comes with a price.

          This would be nice for me got Maddy first on the bench

          Would mean I need a massive Domenico Calvert-Lewin haul to avoid it being another week from hell

        With 2 FTs and a hit I could get this BB squad with 15 DGW players for GW26.

        Should I go for it or is Kane mandatory?

        Where is all this Saints not having a DGW26 coming from?

        They have 2 outstanding fixtures against teams who are still in Europe, surely they are playing spurs or city in 26 as well as Everton?

        Can someone explain this to me, I don't have any saints players but makes little sense from what I can see.

          It's more likely that they have a DGW in 26 than don't.

        Watching the Palace Burnley highlights, Lowton goal really was savage but wow that Palace defending..

        1. Flair
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Can a goal ever be described as savage?

          1. Big Mac 24
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            an own goal can

            it can in Ireland anyway!

          Did you see PVA? Should get a year salary cut just for that...

            Trying to figure out if he goes down to get a foul or is he just that weak/clumsy?

          PVA would have let a toddler beat him and score.

        To all fellow Antonio owners who will be getting Dallas off the bench. Let's keep the hope for 26 more minutes and see if he is really out or maybe just benched and will feature

            I haven't seen anything. Your post doesn't have a source

                He hasn't confirmed anything in his post

        If Antonio is indeed out, I could do with Dias making an appearance in the next City game so I don't get Dier off the bench and it would be Coufal in for Antonio instead.

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          • 6 Years

          Hardly impossible.

        Benched Son for Antonio. Thought it was a smart call. Antonio not featuring would mean a Son 2 pointer for me! Extremely disappointing!

          least its nots Dallas coming off your bench like I have

          1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            That's bad. I hope he features, for your sake!

          You don't get to OR1 without taking risks etc etc

        For those who watched Cavani vs West Brom.

        Is he worth hang onto next game or switch to Ings?

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Switch to Ings, thought he was awful yesterday after I brought him in for 1 week punt

        2. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I did the Cavani punt. Really surprised it didn't work out tbh.

          I'm likely to hold. Great fixture again.
