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.

      Me, with Brewster lurking behind him

      1. Camino Aleatorio

        Brewdog is going to score today ... Brace

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

      Yup! DCL will be like 2 points I reckon

  2. DannyDrinkVodka

    My green arrow now dependent on Sheffield United scoring tonight and Fulham scoring against Burnley!

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

      You may wish to pour yourself a strong one in that case?

      Mind you, Billy Sharpe is playing!

      1. DannyDrinkVodka
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I am hoping that Lord Lundstram can save me tonight

    People have the same mentality towards FPL transfers as they do towards toilet rolls during the early days of the pandemic. If everyone just chilled out for a couple of days we could all buy Ings for 8.4 and avoid a price drop on Antonio as well. But oh no, loads of people are going to lose their minds and think I must get Ings before the price rise. That leads other people to panic and do the same.

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

      It's called "The Prisoner's Dilemma"

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Nice analogy, glad I don't need ings to wipe my bum though.

    3. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I got Ings for Antonio last GW 🙂

        3 years, 1 month ago

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

          3 years, 1 month ago

      • 10 Years

    4. Now I'm Panicking

      1. Eh, just one more thing ...
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Ouch ... at least you didn’t have the shame of actually starting the jeb-end like I did ....

    5. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

  6. Rash

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years

    4. HonestBlatter
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

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

      3. Rash
        • 6 Years

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

        • Eh, just one more thing ...
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          12 points from Barnes as first sub ... finally a little bench luck .... especially after Sunday’s disastrous 2 points from three players ...

        • circusmonkey
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Bamford 2 pointer in.

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

        Coufal 1st sub. Could be worse.

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

          Same for me. Time for a goal Vladimir my son!

        2. The Ejiptian King
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Until his red.

      6. SHOOTER MCGINN
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Oh hello Harvey Barnes you cheeky little substitute

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

          Same here - been hoping for Antonio to miss the game all weekend

        2. Eh, just one more thing ...
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Same here ... much happiness.

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

          Oooooooooooh Harvey Barnes

      7. pundit of punts
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        When do we expect the DGW fixtures to be announced?

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

          Somewhere this week according to the 'experts' ...

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

          Fa Cup dates just announced

          Surely soon?

        3. kennethrhcp
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          was hoping before I made transfers but I've only .2 wiggle room & may need to make them tonight

        4. pundit of punts
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Cheers all

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

        Why do I get the feeling Leeds will disapoint us all in gw25.

        1. Sun Jihai
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          They'll blank in both DGW fixtures and then when people take them out for DGW players in GW26 they'll beat Villa 5-0. It's the FPL way.

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

          Cause they are Leeds mate!

          Raphina is prolly the best bet.
          Dallas is next best, then
          Bamford

          They are a good gamble, low cost and decent upside

          Bamford smells like a Hatty soon

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

          Imagine the opposite. Bamford with 3 goals, Raphinha two assists and a goal, Dallas with an assist and a clean sheet.

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

            Could happen - just like I could meet Megan Fox at a cafe. Then she falls in love with me and starts stalking me. She then makes me choose between her and FPL. I say ok to dumping FPL, but keep playing on the sly.

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

              I knew I'd lose her eventually.

        4. Eh, just one more thing ...
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I’m taking the punt on Raphinha and Ings in to tart up Dallas Bamford ... swan song before GW26 ...

      9. DycheDycheBaby
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        That's just wonderful. Alioski in for -1 assuming Taylor and Mee do not play either. LOL

        1. circusmonkey
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Bamford 2 pointer in.

        2. circusmonkey
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          What I meant to say was Mee has already played this gw, so his percussion is irrelevant.

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

            That is true haha. Thank you for pointing that out mate! Still I gotta hope Taylor plays or I will get Alioski in for Antonio.

      10. Third Eye Vision
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I’ve held off on playing my wildcard, but thinking of playing it this week then TC in 26. I’ve still got my FH.

        Any reason not to play it? I will make 9 or 10 changes and it looks like a great team going forward anyway.

        In short, might I get caught out by announcements i.e. chances that the games won’t be in 26?

        1. Freshy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Saved my FH last year till GW 38 and it worked very well. Turns it into a WC

      11. Camino Aleatorio
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Man I have to deal with Feces on my FPL team

        Antonio being flushed!

        1. Eh, just one more thing ...
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Just hope he doesn’t turn out to be a floater if you pick up any injuries and he becomes less of an issue ... he’s out on my wildcard GW26

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

        -1 Dallas incoming thanks to Moyes trying to be Jose.
        Make me feel better please, Soucek.

        1. No_Mo_Salah?
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Haha me too... hoping for something from Coufal.

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

        Maddison or Barnes?

        1. A. PRISE
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          'Arvey

        2. BeWater
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Maddison.

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

          Maddison for me

        4. HonestBlatter
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Maddison in all set pieces

        5. Eh, just one more thing ...
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Barnes for me ... I think his punching power and the money saved give him the edge ... I’m keeping him on my GW26 wildcard .... I think ...

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

          Maddison edges it imo

        7. FPL Daniel
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Maddison for me. He is on a streak and he is a streaky player.

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

        What a crazy DGW this turned out to be...

        Antonio 0/1 games
        DCL 1/2 games
        Mee 1/2 games
        Dias 1/2 games
        Gündogan 1/2 games

        I just shouldn't have even bothered.

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

          At least we tried 😉

        2. BeWater
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          DGWs so often never pan out how you want them.

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

          Is Gundogan confirmed out?

        4. OverTinker
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          can't complain for Gundo

        5. estheblessed
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Gundogan not confirmed tho is it:?

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

        Do you think Chilwell starts tonight?

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

          I would bet more 'No' that 'Yes', but I honestly don't know.

        2. ivantys
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Has to be CHO and James

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

            Neither of them play the role Chilwell/Alonso do.

            1. ivantys

              Alonso's crap. Only thing that might get him a start is they are vs crap team.

                He's not a crap wing-back. Either way, CHO/James are not playing the LWB role, so both comments are a bit stupid.

            That makes 0 sense, both are RWB

              Nah CHO is a LW played out of position.

                Chilwell/Alonso play LB/LWB - not LW.

        2-1 with a Soucek brace suits me fine tonight.

        1. HonestBlatter

          Coufal haul for me

          How about both Soucek & Coufal haul, and we call it a day?

          Don't think it affects how he plays too much. Crosses in from deep as usual.

            Just hope Moyes doesn't park bus again... Actually I would take a park bus and CS lol.

              Ofc he's parking the bus... he doesn't know how to.play otherwise... medieval tactics

        Who is on Newcastle penalties tonight do we think? Assuming Ritchie doesn't play. Almiron, Shelvey or ASM all seem candidates

        1. BigBillyBass

          If Joelinton starts it will be him. If not then Shelvey

        Getting Coufal for Antonio - how should I feel

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 14 Years

          excited

          1. OverTinker
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            can't - rival getting Shaw points

            1. FPL Daniel
              • 14 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Well, he has a better squad then. it is a fair play you both get defenders from the bench and it is not Dallas with -1pt

              1. OverTinker
                • 5 Years
                3 years, 1 month ago

                Main rival getting Dallas -1 pointer should Dias miss another game which ofcourse is unlikely.

              Your rival benched Shaw? He should not be a rival

              1. OverTinker
                • 5 Years
                3 years, 1 month ago

                Antonio ahead of Shaw makes sense - most of the people start forwards ahead of defenders. He wildcarded and had lot of DGW players

        Moyes did me not one, but two favors today. Stones comes off my bench and I now know whom I will be dumping for Bam-Bam for the DGW.

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

          You benched a DGW player?

          1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
            • 12 Years

            Indeed. See my reply to our equine friend below.

          This has to be made up.

          1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Nope. Given my rank, I can't afford to do the same thing everyone else does. I banked on Son scoring against City as he often does, plus there was a chance of Dias and Laporte starting together. Though I captained Cancelo just to hedge (kinda regretting that now). And I knew there was always a chance Antonio would get rested.

        Antonio has unfortunately failed his fitness test and is out of the game

        Does this mean he will play the next game against the Spurs?

        What do you think?

        Trying to decide on whether to BB?

        1. OverTinker
          • 5 Years

          why not move him out for Ings?

            Price difference is one reason springs to mind...

        Soucek coming on for Antonio with Coufal on my bench.

        Cue 1-0 to West Ham with a Coufal worldie.

        Soucek's definitely going to score - the guy in the top 10k who decided to bring Aubameyang and Lowton in this GW with two FTs has Antonio with Soucek first bench... https://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/1915892/event/24/

          Same bench situation here, so I hope so!

        What are the best sources these days to find out who are the players coming into form and to watch out for?

        This website's great, but there's a lot more fluff to get through to find the good bits these days - i.e. X scored, X played for the first time - yes, anyone can see that on the FPL website. The season ticker and watchlists are comparably less loved than they used to be.
