Win £10,000 for free with Fantasy5 by picking the best players for Gameweek 13


Sponsored by Fantasy5


Even if you’re left cursing a disastrous score in Fantasy Premier League (FPL) this weekend, winning a cool £10,000 would be a nice tonic come Sunday evening.

You have a chance to achieve precisely this if you can make five correct picks in the free-to-play Fantasy5 game, and there are also various other prizes (including an iPad this week) on offer beyond the whopping jackpot.

£100 prize every month in Scout's Fantasy5 mini-league

You can even set up a mini-league and compete with colleagues, friends and family – something we’ve done this week.

Fantasy Football Scout recently unveiled a nine-week battle that pits ten staff members and Pro Pundit experts against each other. To determine who truly has the best eye for a Fantasy player, the FFS Challenge mini-league will take place between Gameweeks 12 and 20.

A small prize is up for grabs but, more importantly, so are bragging rights. Below the ‘how to’, you can see which players the Scout crew have selected for Gameweek 13.

HOW DOES FANTASY 5 WORK?

Fantasy5 is free to play and it follows the exact same scoring system as FPL, just without the bonus points.

It’s as simple as this: pick a player from each of the five Gameweek 13 matches below and, if they all exceed their individual ‘points targets’ (a par score set by Fantasy5), you’ll be in the money:

  • Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa
  • Liverpool vs Southampton
  • Brighton and Hove Albion vs Leeds United
  • Burnley vs Tottenham Hotspur
  • Chelsea vs Manchester United

Anyone who manages to pick five successful outperformers will be in the money, with a £10,000 prize up for grabs!

Even if you don’t succeed in getting all five right, Fantasy5’s leaderboard allows you to win prizes beyond the £10k jackpot – as seen in the image above.

Competition is limited to one entry per person per round. Full terms and conditions are here.

The deadline for this week’s entries is at 15:00 GMT on Saturday November 27.

SCOUT’S PICKS FOR GAMEWEEK 13 OF FANTASY5

The FFS Challenge got underway in earnest last week – and the current mini-league table is below.

It’s fair to say there’s been a strong showing from the FFS core team early doors. FFS Deputy Editor Tom Freeman is ruling the roost after a hat-trick of smart selections (and was very close to four), just one ahead of Editor Neale, FPL Family (and marketing manager) Sam and all-rounder COO Geoff who all picked two correctly.

El Statto did the best of the ‘guest’ managers, notching one correct selection, whilst Ted Talks, Nymfria, El Fozzie, Az and myself (Marc), fared slightly less well in the opener!

It is of course a marathon not a sprint, so there’s plenty of time to claw back with this week’s selections – and there’s quite a lot of differential picks on offer (as we can see below!)

Az

elFozzie

FPL_ElStatto

FPL Marc

FPL Nymfria

Geoff

Neale

Sam (FPL Family)

Ted Talks FPL

Tom

The most-selected players for each match are:

  • Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa: Benteke (3), Gallagher (2), Mings (2)
  • Liverpool vs Southampton: Mane (5), Adams (3), Alexander-Arnold (2)
  • Brighton and Hove Albion vs Leeds United: Lamptey (6), Raphinha (3)
  • Burnley vs Tottenham Hotspur: Kane (4), Reguilon (3), Son (2)
  • Chelsea vs Manchester United: James (5), Rudiger (2), Ronaldo (2)

Brighton’s flying wing-back Tariq Lamptey is the week’s most-chosen player, having impressed during his two starts since returning from injury. In both matches, his average position was extremely high up the pitch – higher than all teammates against Newcastle United. Last time out, he had a close-range shot at Villa Park and six competitors believe he can deliver against Leeds.

Sadio Mane is backed by five to fare well against former club Southampton, as three believe Che Adams can prevent a Liverpool clean sheet. The outstanding form of Reece James has understandably gained him five picks, with strong odds of producing at both ends against Man United. Burnley vs Spurs has more of a split, with all ten backing Antonio Conte’s side but some going for Sergio Reguilon rather than attacking pair Harry Kane and Son Heung-min.

The match with most variation is Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa, where six players were selected amongst the ten. Christian Benteke is the one to receive three nominations, having only been beaten by Mohamed Salah for shots during the past five Gameweeks.

    Can't decide between Alonso or Reece to replace Chilwell. Reece the standout pick, Alonso seems more nailed. What's your reasoning?

    1. Firmino
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Both, James first

      1. sirmorbach
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Appreciate it!

    2. Cynical
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I went Alonso because I see him playing more over the next few games

      1. sirmorbach
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers!

    3. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Reece first, if you can afford. Set pieces vs Man U, and then EO reasons (I know, I know)

      Then Alonso top priority from the Watford game, where he's the more guaranteed starter and will have fun in the box as the inside forward

      1. sirmorbach
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Sounds very reasonable.

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Very kind, that

          Thanks 🙂

  2. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    A) Alonso FT
    B) Jota for a hit

    1. Cynical
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A

    2. Il Capitano
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A

  3. Miami Monkey
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Sanchez Foster
    TAA Rudiger Chilwell* White Livramento
    Salah Foden* Zaha Benrahma Brownhill
    Vardy Jimenez Antonio

    2 FT, 0.4 itb, WC available. Keep putting off the WC and not really sure when I might play it. Just not really sure what direction to take. Feel like I'm falling behind by not having some template picks like James and Cancelo. But my rank is around 50k so not doing bad overall. I'd like Son, Jota, and a City def, but not sure how to make that happen. Would require a hit and I've taken like 16 points of hits this season because it never seems bad enough to WC. And now Chilwell and Foden are injured.

    A) WC
    B) Something else? And what?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Foden -> ESR
      Chilwell -> Cancelo

    2. Fish up a tree
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Get Jota & Cancelo this week for the injuries & go from there

  4. abaalan
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Ramsdale, foster
    TAA, Cancelo, Rudiger, Livra, Lowton
    Jota, Salah, Son, Raphinha, D. Luiz
    Wilson, Antonio, Jimenez
    1 FT, 0.3 itb

    Any suggestions? Thinking of Antonio out....but no great replacements

  5. SuperDan
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Pick one:
    A) Antonio & Mbeumo > King & Jota (-4)
    B) Mbeumo & ESR > Jota & McArthur (-4)
    C) Foden > Jota
    D) Save

  6. Amartey Partey
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Coufal is back for West Ham.

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      He's been playing in the cup games for a while now.

    2. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      yeah, for the Europa League! can't see him taking Johnson's spot in the PL though

  7. Timon
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Guaita
    Cancelo Alexander-Arnold James
    Havertz Son Salah Mbeumo Jota
    Hwang Toney
    Steer A.Armstrong Livramento Johnson

    2 FTs, 2.3 ITB.

    a. My plan was to stick with Son. But that 2nd half against Leeds kind of pushing me to get Kane.
    b. Also need to ship out Havertz

    If Kane should be a priority, even if for a hit, I can do, Armstrong, Havertz & Son to Kane, Bilva & Maddison/Barnes/Gallagher

    Any thoughts? Absolutely lost.

    1. KUNingas
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I would keep Son still

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      There wasn't enough difference between Kane and Son imho. And it was only one halftime what you are talking. With a little better luck either could have scored. Son has been better for longer time this season. If I were you, I would only sell Havertz now and roll the other. Or perhaps Mbeumo to ESR. You could also prepare for getting new premium fwd next week.

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Well... According to stats Son didn't do much, that I admit. But Reguillon was at the right place at the right time, and so is Son much more often. Son to Kane sound so sideways that I don't like it. Son still gets that extra point for cs and goal. So not worth a hit imo.

  8. swanseag55
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    I went Arsenal

  9. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    NŠ Mura with the lead.

  10. Random Name
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Rangnick.

    That's it that's the punchline

  11. BOATIES FC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    One free transfer, own Chilwell and no other Chelsea. Cant afford James but can afford Alonso.

    Chilwell to Alonso is a no brainer right? anything else overthinking it I reckon.

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah. Set and forget for the season

      Then work James in soon enough too

      1. It’s A Joke
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Chilwell is out for the season?

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          ACL. They'll reassess in January

          But history of RTP for ACL injuries elsewhere will suggest it's the season. Rushing him back would be risky

          1. It’s A Joke
            • 13 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            I’ve already taken a hit to get some dross out. You reckon another -4 for Alonso is worth it? Don’t wanna lose dough via rise n falls. Have Henry coming on if he doesn’t play so may hold tight.

            1. Ze_Austin
              • 5 Years
              2 years, 4 months ago

              Let Henry play, imo. Everton is in shambles, and the dude has just scored twice in a row

              You can easily do that Alonso move for free next GW instead

              Every hit has to improve the squad, not just get the next big thing

              Henry is perfectly fine for GW13, just like the Hwang I'm "forced" to play by benching Chilwell

  12. Ze_Austin
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Raph could have hauled against this injured Spurs squad

    Lucky non-owner here

  13. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Tierney likely to start v Newcastle?

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Probably Tavares keeps him out again. He was poor against Liverpool but overall Arsenal were poor on the day.

    2. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I think he’ll start.

  14. KUNingas
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    2FTs and 2.7 ITB

    A) Mbeumo -> Jota
    B) Dias + Brownhill -> Alonso + Jota

    Problem with B is maybe too good bench and Mbeumo has akward price point as after those moves I would have 0.0 ITB. Thoughts?

    Ramsdale
    TAA, Cancelo, Dias, James
    Salah, Son, Raphinha, Mbeumo
    Toney, Hwang

    Foster, Antonio, Livramento, Brownhill

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      A this week imo. Dias has better fixture, so selling him now sounds like a very bad timing.

  15. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Any news on Sarr.

  16. GreennRed
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Sessegnon
    gone.

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      2 yellows in 32 minutes

      That's Reguilón nailed, then

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Not certain about that. If Sessegnon can't play next match, but can play in PL and Reg has fitness issues there is a problem.

  17. Qaiss
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    What do we do Ronaldo fellow owners... what do we do...

    1. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Fellow Ronaldo owners*!

    2. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Ragnarok is coming

      I'm buying him soon

      Hold, definitely

      1. Qaiss
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Everyone will buy him in 16/17. Question is whether Kane will outscore him over the next 3. I wouldn’t bet on it at this rate.

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          With the way Spurs are playing under Conte, I wouldn't bother with Kane

          The real argument is if Benteke will outscore Ronaldo in the next 2, then switch back in GW15

          I know it sounds weird, but those stats. My word.

          1. Qaiss
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            It would be Kane or just keeping him tbh. I thought Kane could be a differential captain choice for Brentford/Norwich but yeah, I really don’t know if Spurs can be trusted atm.

            Kane is playing the same way Sanchez did for us 4 years ago when he wanted out.

      2. Colonel Shoe 肝池
        • 12 Years

        how does ronaldo fit in a gegenpressing style.......hes never pressed in his life

    3. Rog.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Yeah I still have him, it’s annoying but a hold

  18. Jebiga
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Would you bench rudiger over smith row?

    1. Del Griffith
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No chance, must be some other player you can bench

      1. Jebiga
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Raphinha, Antonio

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Bench Antonio out of those 4.

          1. Baps hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            2 years, 4 months ago

            This^

    2. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      No. Playing both this GW but Rudiger has to start for me.

      1. Jebiga
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Who are you benching?
        Cancelo maybe because of gametime from cl?

        1. GreennRed
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 4 months ago

          Foster, Duffy, Brownhill, Omobamidele. Gonna sell Omo though, prob for Johnson.

    3. Rog.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      I’d play Smith-Rowe easily, we are looking at the same fixtures right?

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        I wonder. ESR vs Newcastle must be first player to field after Salah and perhaps Jota, but uncertain about the latter.

  19. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    A,B or C then?

    A) Tierney
    B) Livramento
    C) Alonso -4?

      A

  20. Strchld

    Who is more important bernardo silva or jota?

    1. OptimusBlack
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      B.Silva played 90 Minutes with Pep Roulette I think jota is better

    2. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Jota, more goal threat. Needs a lot of chances mind.

    3. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Jota

    4. antis0cial

      Oh wow

      He can actually score with his head too

  25. DAZZ

    Is it safe to do Chilwell > James, catch the rise tonight?

    1. OptimusBlack
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yes

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Why do that?

    3. acidicleo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Yes..No updates needed on RJ from pressers I guess..

  26. sirmorbach
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Isn't there a chance of Reece resting against United, making it safer to bring in Alonso first?

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      There’s like 4-5 days between Europe and MU. Only a couple after that for Watford.

      I’d bet a lot of money on James starting against MU.

      1. sirmorbach
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks!

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Safer would be getting the James points if he starts.

      1. sirmorbach
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 4 months ago

        Sound advice — though the prospect of points for Alonso surely looks tasty as well..

    3. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Alons more likely to start vs Watford imo. Therefore he is bigger priority for next two imo.

  27. antis0cial
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Havertz + Chilwell to Jota + Alonso for free good moves? Gives the below team

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo James Alonso
    Salah Foden Jota Raph
    Jimenez Toney

    Foster Antonio Livramento Benrahma

    1. acidicleo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Good

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 4 months ago

      Template transfers

  28. acidicleo
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 4 months ago

    Guys any of these transfers worth a hit?
    Antonio is first on bench!!
