FanTeam’s World Cup Fantasy game has now launched!

In less than four weeks, FPL will be on the back burner and we’ll be sitting down to watch England face Iran, France play Australia, and Germany clash with Japan.

FanTeam have beaten the competition to the punch by launching their World Cup game and you can begin selecting your team right now.

Choose a star-studded line-up from the world’s most elite talent. Fancy Harry Kane (£12.0m), Kylian Mbappe (£12.5m) and Lionel Messi (£12.0m) in the same side? No problem!

And we at Fantasy Football Scout are delighted to be partnering with FanTeam to bring you detailed game rules, picks, team reveals, strategy guides and more ahead of the big kick-off.

The contest has a similar scoring system to Fantasy Premier League and will be played over seven Gameweeks, starting on November 20.

ENTER YOUR TEAM NOW
(UNLIMITED TRANSFERS UNTIL THE WORLD CUP STARTS!)

CASH PRIZES

FanTeam's World Cup 2022 Fantasy game has launched 1

There are two different entry routes for FanTeam World Cup entrants.

The main game requires a £5 buy-in and is restricted to one team per user. There’s a minimum prize pool of £50,000, where the winner bags at least £5,000.

For those who like the old-school FanTeam with multiple teams allowed, the £20 buy-in tournament allows up to 25 entries per user. It boasts a minimum guaranteed prize pool of £100,000 and first-place wins at least £10,000.

As both options have a progressive prize pool, the £100,000 and £50,000 will continue to rise with each new entry beyond the minimum guarantee.

HOW TO PLAY

Both money routes have the same format and rules:

  • £90m budget (increasing to £95m later in the World Cup)
  • Pick an 11-man team – so no subs!
  • A minimum of one goalkeeper plus at least three defenders, two midfielders and one forward

As for discovering how to score points, we’ll bring you a more detailed article next week – but regular FanTeam users will already be familiar with the scoring system, which is very similar to FPL.

    Zaha to Saka or roll FT? My decision making process is a bit frayed this week given I made the opposite move before Saka braced at Liverpool, and I’m also coming off the back of a terrible GW score which saw me go from 7k to 29k.

    Pope
    Trippier - Cancelo - Gabriel
    Salah - Zaha - Martinelli - Foden
    Haaland - Mitro - Toney

    Bench: Iversen; Andreas, Doherty, Neco

      I chose to not see articles like these. That hasn't worked.

        Is 'FanTeam' checked in your profile in Hidden Categories?

        1. Mirror Man
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Yes. The whole list is checked, but none of the content is ever hidden. It's not a huge issue, just throwing it out there really.

            1. Skonto Rigga

              Weird, it's working for me. If you've got time and don't mind, can you send over a screenshot of the categories box in your profiles and one of what you're seeing above and I'll get someone to look into it? Plus details of whatever device you're using.

            I just reproduced this - I went to my profile, edited it and ticked all of the boxes and then logged out, logged back in and this article is still showing on my homepage.

            I'll send the email as mentioned below.

        Does Firmino to Numez have any upside to it or is it too sideways?

      4. AzzaroMax99
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Already did Bowen to Almiron. Should I also do:

        A) Wilson to Mitrovic (-4)
        B) Dunk to Dias (-4)
        C) don’t go with -4

        Perisic and Doherty start today, both benched at weekend apperantly!!

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

          Going Doherty over Castagne 2 weeks back feels like season-defining stuff. Hopefully subbed at 60 mins and gets a start at the weekend.

        2. Mirror Man
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Spurs full-backs are about as predictable as Irish weather.

          • The Bandit
            • 15 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            You can’t spell and you made the last bit up.

              "apparently"....

                • 16 Years
                3 years, 1 month ago

                On the contrary I think now there is a higher chance for Doherty to play over the weekend, since he looks like a first choice

          • Samsonite
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            My eyes

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Tottenham XI: Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Doherty, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Perisic; Lucas, Son, Kane

          Subs: Forster, Skipp, Sanchez, Gil, Royal, Sessegnon, Spence, Tanganga, Sarr, Lenglet, Bissouma, White

            Paul O'Keefe's prediction for anyone that thinks he's ITK 😉
            https://mobile.twitter.com/pokeefe1/status/1585296468176297984/photo/1

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

              the fact Paul openly tells everyone it's a prediction is all people need to know. He's pretty good but doesn't have inside knowledge as such I don't think

              1. Hits from the Bong
                • 7 Years
                3 years, 1 month ago

                I believe he does get info sometimes, but at least he makes clear which is which

              2. lilmessipran
                • 13 Years
                3 years, 1 month ago

                Oh he definitely has inside knowledge he just balances it out perfectly depending upon which will have an impact on his followers (for fpl purposes he gets most of them correct)

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

                  Yeah, just read his tweets and it’s clear he put less intel / effort into this than the line-ups that matter

            2. Zimo
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              He did state that he's been out of the loop recently.

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

                Ah ok, fair
                Think Conte basically rolls a dice on whether to start Perisic or not and whether to sub him at HT or 59 minutes!

          2. FPL Daniel
            • 16 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Doherty first choice confirmed then. I might punt on him instead of Dallot

            1. Hits from the Bong
              • 7 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Think he might possibly be first choice, but still far from nailed. It would be nice if he got the easier games and Emerson plays when Conte needs a more defensive setup

        4. The Mighty Whites
          • 10 Years

          1FT, 2.2 ITB, thoughts?

          Pope, Iversen
          Cancelo, Trippier, Kilman, Webster, N. Williams
          Salah, Foden, Bowen, Martinelli, Andreas
          Haaland, Mitrovic, Solanke

          A: Transfer Solanke out and play Bowen/Andreas
          B: Transfer Bowen to Saka & play Andreas
          C: Transfer Kilman/Webster out and play Bowen/Andreas

          1. The Knights Template
            • 12 Years

            A

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

          OMG! Is Marcos Alonso actually playing CB 😯

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

            Xavi seems to have lost the plot, did it earlier as well..benches Garcia and starts Alonso at CB

        6. Nate(U)dog(ie)
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Firmino starts yet again, don't have much hope that he'll play at the weekend now

          1. The Bandit
            • 15 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Because he starts tonight? So do Salah and Nunez

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

              you have Perisic Doherty Firmino?

              1. The Bandit
                • 15 Years
                3 years, 1 month ago

                None

            2. FPL Daniel
              • 16 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              All 3 will start imo, they have to, options are limited

            3. Nate(U)dog(ie)
              • 5 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Fifth game in a row for him though, if he starts on Saturday it's 6 starts in 17 days. A lot for anyone but especially for a player plagued by injuries last season

          2. Big_Andy_GAWA
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            They haven't exactly got a plethora of options at the moment, though!

            1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
              • 5 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              True but I think he has to get a rest soon

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

            I think Darwin and Salah uptop at the weekend with Firmino on the bench

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

          Raphina refused Chelsea to join his dream club, then now cannt get into first XI before World Cup, probably lost his place at Brazil too

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

            He did a bad move

          2. Warbling Wendy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Dembele was electric against Betis the other day as well. Doesn't bode well for him.

        8. PartyTime
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Dammit. This Napoli’s manager has forqd my arse

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

          How long can Conte keep starting Son and Kane every game? Must be on the red zone.

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

            Was supposed to be reply for Sun Jihai but I guess it can hold it's own as a new comment too.

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

            Not much attacking depth at all elsewhere with Richarlison and Kulu out

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

            Don't think he can afford to bench Kane, Son could have been rested had Richa and Kulu been upto speed

          4. FPL Daniel
            • 16 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            They are both fit lads and in their prime, they should be starting for all the important games imo

          5. Warbling Wendy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            They're professional athletes, so long as their recovery is managed and the training is tailored to reflect the heavy game time he will keep playing them, especially considering they both seem to be personalities that are willing to take on that burden (especially Kane in that regard)

            1. Warbling Wendy
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Footballers actually love it when they are playing loads of games back to back and have reduced training minutes.

          Is this the week to punt on a different Cap?

          Got FT use it or hold?

          Alisson,
          Trippier, Cancelo, Saliba
          Bowen, Foden, Martineli, Salah
          Toney, Hauland

          Raya, Andreas, Justin, Solanke

          1. Old Wulfrunian

            No

          2. PartyTime
            • 4 Years

            Nice solid 3-4-2 formation for the W

              Fixed that 🙂

            Not for me unless we get definite news

          • 14 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          F.A.O. Doherty owners:

          What y'all doing this GW? Benching?

          Cheers.

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

            Probably playing if he comes off early (a Solanke less Bournemouth should be a pretty good CS shout). If he plays 90, maybe selling for White.

          2. FPL Daniel
            • 16 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            I might buy him actually . Him starting tonight is good news

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

            Play him of course, there is no guarantee that Emerson starts over him at the weekend.. non Doherty owner here

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

              Hmmm, doesn't look good for a start for him, IMHO. I currently have Guehi 1st sub. . .

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

            Starting him regardless of what leaks/guesses there are. 4 mins of Doherty is better than 90 mins of Guehi.

        12. Botman and Robben
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Will there be an official FIFA World Cup fantasy game?

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

            Yes, in about a week or so

            1. Botman and Robben
              • 9 Years

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

            Can he do it in the PL?

          2. PartyTime
            • 4 Years

            & I’ve got Martinez in my team. What a UCL trap

        14. PartyTime
          • 4 Years

          Lukakuuuuuuuuuuu

        15. FPL Daniel
          • 16 Years

          Alright lads, poor wildcard gameweek just gone. Think u got 43 all out and lost a hefty lead in MLs due to going Salah (C).

          Raged him out for Saka (stupidly, as he's got Leeds next as I could of just done Bowen - Saka and had him in).

          Got a horrible feeling Salah finally hauls and what with the flag on Haaland... am I insane for considering a FH to get Salah in?

          Chasing non existent points at this rate?

          There used to be this ex-Palace player that went by the initials AWB that was a FPL hot cake a while back. Just remembered him.

          I originally was going to bench him this week, but I'm tempted to throw Zouma in against United - De Gea is tragic when put under pressure at set-pieces and other than Casemiro who has any aerial ability in that United team with Varane out? Surely the Hammers will target corners/free kicks as a route to goal, with Soucek and Zouma the big targets?

            Warbling is accurate 😉

            I've got Zouma penciled in for GW15.

          What has happened with Son this season?

          We can argue what has happened to Salah but he always needed 5 shots to score a goal

          Historically Son was the opposite, he basically scored every shot he had

          What has changed? If he wasnt having shots that's the answer but I still see him taking shots, hitting the bar/post etc

          Surely he has to become an option at some point?

            So what happened to Salah? Divings not getting awards anymore?

            Son was an elite finisher overachieving his xG, is it just coming back closer to 0 now?

            Not really obvious to me what happened to Salah.
