Lies, damned lies, and statistics.

Fantasy Football Scout Members can now access a new feature in our Members Area – The Eye Test.

Fantasy Football Scout Members Area – Navigation Bar

It includes highlights of every Premier League match in the last two seasons. How well do the stats tell the story of the match? Review the highlights and decide for yourself.

Fantasy Football Scout users can access a limited version of The Eye Test below, featuring all of Liverpool’s matches both this season and in their title-winning campaign.

You can use the highlights to review previous encounters or to identify players getting into good attacking positions but not receiving the ball – players that will be invisible to the statistics.

Snap Shot

In addition to linking to the match highlights, the table makes it easy to visualise periods of form by using basic colour coding. You can sort by Gameweek, Opponent, Venue (H/A), Goals Scored (+) and Goals Conceded (-) to gain further insights.

Clicking on the opponent’s name will take you to the match in our Members Area.

And Team notes have been archived from Gameweek 11 of 2025/26 onwards, allowing you to view a screenshot of each team’s “latest news” ahead of the match by clicking on the club badge.

Screen time

Extended highlights are included where available.

The highlights are linked directly to the clubs’ YouTube channels rather than the broadcasters in order to avoid any geo-restrictions. Those based outside the UK won’t be able to view any Sky Sports videos, for instance.

There will be a degree of subjectivity in the highlights as the video editors cutting them together will naturally favour their own club. For balance, two sets of extended highlights – one for each team – have been added when possible. To view the second set of highlights, click on the opponent’s three-letter team name in the menu and find the fixture.

Navigation

To navigate through the video frame-by-frame, first, pause the video, then tap the full stop key (.) to move one frame forward or the comma key (,) to move one frame backwards.

Running order

If extended highlights are unavailable (there’s less likely to be extended highlights of a defeat), then the opponent’s extended highlights will be used. Longer highlights are favoured over shorter highlights. If neither club has uploaded extended highlights, then the shorter match edits are defaulted to.

Extended highlights are often uploaded a few days after the match. The Eye Test will update once they are available. If you spot any errors or find new extended highlights, please contact myself, TopMarx, or Rainy via the comments. Alternatively, send an email to support.

My thanks to Rainy for his help in compiling the video links.

    Van den berg Or Van Hecke?

      Van Hecke

      1. Khalico

        Good to double up with Verbruggen as I have him as GK? Or spread the risk to VDB?

        1. Prinzhorn
          • 5 Years
          1 month, 25 days ago

          Then I’d spread

    2. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years

      They actually rotate well with each other. That’s the route I went down.

      #ad or genuine opinion?

  3. Prinzhorn
    • 5 Years
    1 month, 25 days ago

    Is it crazy to swap Thiago now for Ekitike?

    1. Khalico
      • 10 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      I’d give Thiago the Wolves game before deciding to move him on

      1. Prinzhorn
        • 5 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        Seems the sensible thing to do but I like the TOT fixture for Ekitike

        1. Khalico
          • 10 Years
          1 month, 25 days ago

          I’d probably do it as a longer term pick anyways, I see Ekitike getting points over the next few he looks sharp

    2. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Wolves the worst home team in the league by far for goals conceded. But if you get priced out, maybe.

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      I did but was set to be priced out of the move. Thiago could outscore Ekitike this GW but longer term am happier with the Liverpool man

    4. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      I'd wait a week.

      That said, I'm doing Woltemade > Ekitike this week most likely so if you're feeling trigger happpy I don't fault that either.

      1. Prinzhorn
        • 5 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        I’m probably too chickenshit to do it but Anderson and Thiago to Wilson and Ekitike feels really good.

        1. Feanor
          • 16 Years
          1 month, 25 days ago

          I have Thiago and Ekiteke, but I would make that move. Wilson way higher ceiling than Anderson

  4. Khalico
    • 10 Years
    1 month, 25 days ago

    Who’s third striker? I assume it’s Guiu. And yeah Ekitike vs Spurs looks like a prime game for him

    1. Khalico
      • 10 Years

      Reply fail for above

  6. KUNingas

    How to shave out 0.1 from this team? Perhaps Alderete to Esteve or something else?

    Raya, Dubravka
    Timber, VVD, Richards, Andersen, Alderete
    Saka, Bruno, Foden, Semenyo, Anderson
    Haaland, Thiago, Guiu

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Clyne?

      1. KUNingas
        • 9 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        Perhaps, would anyhow rarely even need to play

    2. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Thiago >DCL another option. I’ve always loved DCL!

      1. KUNingas
        • 9 Years

        I have always hated him 🙂

        What nonsense is this? You need to go and lie down in a dark room, TKT. Thou hast partaken of the mushrooms of a magical nature.

    How does this differ to sky sports premier league highlights on YouTube or MOTD highlights on the BBC football website? Can I get a summary please?

    1. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Its much, much easier to navigate the highlights than looking for them yourself. Thats the main thing which is quite big.

      I imagine you can make an AI agent that does the same thing quite easily though if you know how to do that sort of thing, especially as all the highlights are on the official club youtubes.

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        Does it show you who is at the tip of the attack in games and which defenders are constantly getting forwards?

        Could be a cool members benefit if it does, although I don't know why Scout doesn't reduce FPL General's fee by 25% and just buy FPL review and offer that as a members benefit.

        1. Brosstan
          • 11 Years
          1 month, 25 days ago

          You already have that as heatmaps...

          1. FPL Virgin
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            1 month, 25 days ago

            Heatmaps take an ice age to load in the individual match data.

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      These go to eleven…

      1. FPL Virgin

        Rest in peace, Mr. Reiner 😥

          Such sad news, what a film. Really puts perspective on things.

      Both of those are UK only for a start. This provides highlights and goals for all matches, for every team this season, divided by GW all in one place. All links won't have geo blockers. Also links to our OPTA data.

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        Is the data layered over the videos?

      Hey Virg,

      In terms of the highlights, it's just convenience really.

      I hope that with time, as we build the team news archive, it will be a useful tool for looking back to previous matches with the context of team news.

      And I also hope that it's useful having an easy way to visualise form.

    I’ve wasted my AFCON transfers 2 on Muñoz.

    Also Bruno G was a poor transfer for Semenyo

    Also bought in Timber, Bruno

    Wilson this week

    I should have waited if I had the 5 again I’d have got Etitke, and not Bruno G and Timber

    Do I play Bruno G or Chalobah this week???

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Play Chalobah

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years

      I'd do C. And bench one of the defenders. No much bench cover otherwise.

          As in Darwin is just up the road from Alice Springs.

  12. Athletic Nasherbo
    • 9 Years

    Would you bench boost this?

    Kelleher, Raul, Van Hecke, Andersen

    1. Herger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      It’s better than not bench boosting it

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years

      Not desperately but just get it played

  13. bso
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Start Bruno G vs CHE or Bowen vs MC?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Bowen

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years

      Bowen

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      BrunoG much better at home tho.

  15. DagheMunegu
    • 5 Years
    1 month, 25 days ago

    Bench one please

    A VVD (tot)
    B Andersen (NOT)
    C Van Hecke (SUN)

    1. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Play C. I've the same dilemma. Initially was benching A. Less certain now

  16. Bucket Man
    • 7 Years
    1 month, 25 days ago

    First Question. Would you roll this?, and bench VVD or Andersen. 2FT 0.2ITB

    Sanchez
    Timber, Senesi, Andersen
    Saka, Rice, Foden, Semenyo
    Haaland, Bowen, Thiago
    Dubravka, VVD, Rodon, King

    2nd for a friend. 5FT 0.8ITB what would you do here? Timber to Calafiori or something?

    Kelleher
    Timber, Chalobah, O'reilly
    Saka, Foden, Bruno, Semenyo, Wilson
    Haaland, Thiago
    Dubravka, Andersen, Esteve, Guiu

  17. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    1 month, 25 days ago

    Bench correct? Anything players worth swapping around or transferring? 0.2 ITB 2FT.

    Henderson
    Guehi - Timber - O'reilly
    Rogers - Rice - Foden - Bruno
    (H)aaland - Ekitike - Thiago

    Cucu, Dewsbury-Hall, Tark, Dub

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      No way I'd bench Cucurella I think over Guehi. But otherwise it looks pretty good.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        Hmm. Didn't really cross my mind to play Cucu vs Newcastle. He hasn't been getting any attacking returns, has been ok for CS though. I do worry about benching though and him scoring.

        Was thinking about benching Rice tbh.

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Looks great. Don't mind Guehi over Cucu. Both may concede. Don't think (may be wrong) Cucu has been attacking this season.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        ty

      2. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        Cucu is definitely attacking. He takes up very attacking positions and is often in the opponent box. The problem with him and other full backs is that their lack of consistent DC means that they arent worth the price any longer.

        1. Mother Farke
          • 1 Year

          There's a Colwill for Cardiff, mate. Merry Christmas!

  19. theodosios
    • 8 Years
    1 month, 25 days ago

    Four red arrows in a row, OR dropped from 163k to 886k. What to do with this team? 3FT 1.9m ITB

    Petrovic Dubravka
    Timber O'Riley Andersen Kayode Rodon
    Foden Mbeumo Semenyo Minteh Eze
    Haaland Thiago Mateta

    Andersen and Kayode are last GW acqusitions.

    1. Mother Farke
      • 1 Year
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Sell Boomo cause of AFCON, Mateta cause of form and Eze cause of rotation risk. Expensive passengers, mate.

      1. Lanley Staurel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        Yep - Mateta and Eze havent had good stats for weeks. Youve gone into each GW with players unlikely to score well.

    2. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      I’ve gone from 170k to 498k in the same period. FH and five trades has ruined mine game. Mateta and Eze would be leaving this team if I owned it.

    3. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      I would look at moving on Mateta and Mbeumo. Rogers and Ekitike in? Not sure if you can afford it. If you can't then I would do 3 transfers and Eze or Minteh out also.

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 6 Years
        1 month, 25 days ago

        If I still had Mateta I'd probably hold him for the Leeds game and then sell.

    4. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      This team has a lot of dross tbh.. Eze and Mateta the worst ones. And Petrovic has to be one of the worst GK picks possible

  20. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    1 month, 25 days ago

    Which option looks best

    A - Andersen > O'Reilly and bench Chalobah (new)
    B - Roll and play Chalobah

    1. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      A

    2. Miguel Sanchez

    Cherki to Palmer?

    Already have Foden and Haaland

    1. The Knights Template
      • 12 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Yes.

    2. Amartey Partey

      No

    3. Yes Ndidi

      Not this week.

  22. Ohh1454
    • 8 Years

    Thoughts on Cherki in ? Or to much rotation this time of year ?

    1. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      Great option for West Ham away, but a huge risk long term.

    2. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      1 month, 25 days ago

      *home

  23. Hazardous1983
    • 15 Years

    Anderson to semenyo and

    Vvd to any 5.0m or less defende4

    Is this worth it

  24. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    1 month, 25 days ago

    Why in the world do Crystal Palace have to play a UEFA Conference League game on Thursday, yet there are no Champions League games this week?

  25. Amartey Partey
    • 6 Years
    1 month, 25 days ago

    Anyone else have to choose between these two?

    A. Guehi (lee)
    B. Chalobah (new)

    1. Miguel Sanchez

      Am starting both

  26. BusbySwede

    Best replacements for Munoz & Burn?
    Have 2FT, 0.6 itb

    My other remaining defenders are Timber, O'Reilly, Esteve

    Chalobah, VvD, Van Hecke, other options?

    Looks like I'll be free hitting GW19. Gonna be on a plane when the Jan 1 fixtures are played.

    Triple Liverpool and triple United, what could go wrong?

    1. AC/DC AFC

        So long as Ekiteke captain pays off, that's alright

      Not sold on either Wilson or Rogers going forward, but would go for Ekitike

        Pretty happy to set and forget Rogers

        Yeah been a bit unsure on Wilson myself. You considering anyone else around that price range sub 7m ? Been thinking about a punt on Cherki or Sboz

    Not all the way happy with my team. Getting Raúl might have been a bad move. Would also love to own Ekitike going forward, but can't see a good way to fit him in my team right now. KDH injury might also be a problem. Got a light bench. Taking any advice and thoughts.

    Sanchez
    O'Reilly l Timber l Hincapie
    Foden l Semenyo l Saka l Bruno.F
    Haaland l Thiago l Raúl
    Dubravka, KDH, Rodon, Mukiele
    0.5m ITB, 3FTs, 2.5k OR

    I want to play agressiv, but at the same time don't do anything stupid.
    Sanchez > Verbruggen good this GW? Semenyo to Cunha in GW 18 or 19 might look good.

      I wouldn't waste a transfer on a GK.

      Personally I would do Saka/Semenyo and Raul to Ekiteke and the best mid you can afford after this week

        I dont see it as a waste. I'm freeing up more money to get in players like Ekitike and Cunha. Will still have 3 transfers next week
