And it’s live! FanTeam’s £1m season-long Premier League Fantasy game – think a paid-entry FPL with huge cash prizes – has relaunched for the new season.

That’s right: there is a guaranteed prize pool of one million pounds in this Fantasy tournament, with £200,000 going to the winner.

There is no catch here, only a €20 entry fee – a payment you’ll make up just by finishing in the top 5,000.

There is also a £25,000 prize pool for the 10 users who achieve the highest Gameweek scores, with £10,000 set aside for exclusive freerolls.

Given that a maximum of 60,000 entries are permitted (that’s less than 1% of the competition you’ll face in Fantasy Premier League each year), the odds are favourable for those who know their stuff.

The first early-bird offer has already gone but teams 501-1,000 who sign up get a FREE £9/€10 ticket to FanTeam’s Euro 2020 final Fantasy contest, which has a guaranteed prize pool of €50,000.

INITIAL PRICE LIST REACTION

The cheaper availability of Sadio Mane (£10.0m) and Roberto Firmino (£7.5m) really stands out, for those Fantasy managers looking for a cut-price alternative to Mohamed Salah (£12.5m).

The Egyptian comes in as the game’s most expensive player, half a million pricier than both Bruno Fernandes (£12.0m) and Harry Kane (£12.0m).

A number of the other premium picks are available at more appealing prices than they are in FPL, with Raheem Sterling (£10.0m) and Jamie Vardy (£9.5m) among those marked down.

The likes of Lucas Digne (£5.5m), Wesley Fofana (£4.5m) and Robert Sanchez (£4.5m) are all priced up in the same generous brackets they are in FPL.

We’ll be back over the coming weeks with a series of articles on FanTeam’s million-pound cash game, delving deeper into the player prices in each position.

WHAT ARE THE SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES TO FPL?

Here’s the great news: anyone with any sort of Fantasy Premier League experience should be able to pick up FanTeam’s game without issue.

The rules, scoring and prices are very similar; click the above image for a full breakdown.

It’s essentially FPL but with huge cash prizes. Given that paid entry mini-leagues are now strongly discouraged by the Premier League, the FanTeam game offers Fantasy managers a legitimate opportunity to make money from their management expertise.

As in FPL, managers build a squad of 15 players that includes two goalkeepers, five defenders, five midfielders and three forwards.

A maximum of three players from a single Premier League team can be selected, with the budget for the initial squad set at 100.0m.

A starting XI is then selected for each Gameweek from that squad of 15.

One free transfer is allowed each Gameweek, with each additional transfer costing minus four points. Managers can roll a Gameweek transfer forward but can never have more than two free transfers in their locker.

FanTeam managers have two Wildcards to use, one for each half of the season. Unlimited free transfers can be used when the Wildcard is deployed and also ahead of Gameweek 1.

A captain (and vice-captain) has to be nominated every week; that player will score double points if they are handed the armband.

All sound very familiar? That’s because the two games are largely the same – although there are a handful of differences to watch out for.

KEY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FANTEAM AND FPL
  • Player prices can rise and fall based on form and in-game transfer movement but, unlike in FPL, a player’s ‘sell price’ is the same as their ‘buy price’.
  • Other than the two aforementioned Wildcards, there aren’t any chips in FanTeam.
  • More than one team is allowed per person, with each entry costing £20.

HOW DO PLAYERS SCORE POINTS?

Seasoned FPL managers should have no problem in adjusting to FanTeam and running a squad with its familiar scoring system, which is shown above.

KEY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FANTEAM AND FPL
  • There is no Bonus Points System, which is replaced by plus/minus points (+0.3/-0.3) 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.
  • Shots on target that don’t end up as goals are rewarded (+0.4 for midfielders and forwards, +0.6 for defenders)
