Score Points
Your players earn points based on their real-world performances. Points are awarded for goals, assists, clean sheets, and more. Check our Point Systems page for details.
Key Strategies
Budget Management
Balance your spending between premium players and value picks. Don’t spend all your budget on star forwards while neglecting defense.
Fixture Analysis
Consider upcoming fixtures when selecting players. Teams with favorable matchups are more likely to score goals and keep clean sheets.
Form Over Reputation
A player’s current form often matters more than their reputation. Don’t hesitate to pick an in-form lesser-known player over an out-of-form star.
Transfer Timing
Be strategic with your transfers. Consider price changes, injuries, and fixture congestion when planning player transfers.
Game Modes
Season-Long Leagues
Compete over the entire football season, managing your team through all match days. Test your long-term strategy and adaptability.
Daily & Weekly Contests
Short-term competitions focused on specific match days or weekends. These contests reset after each period, allowing for fresh team selection.
Head-to-Head Leagues
Face off against a different opponent each match day. Your team’s performance is directly compared to your opponent’s to determine a winner.
Draft Mode
A unique format where each player in your league drafts a team, with each real-world player only available to one team. This creates diverse teams and different strategies.
Advanced Tips
- Pay attention to which players take penalties, free kicks, and corners – these set-piece specialists often earn more points.
- Monitor player injuries and suspensions closely, especially before transfer deadlines.
- Consider player rotation risk during busy fixture periods – some coaches regularly rotate their squads.
- Use the bench boost, triple captain, and free hit chips strategically during double game weeks or favorable fixtures.
- Stay informed about team news and tactical changes that might affect player performance or playing time.
- Don’t chase last week’s points – focus on consistent performers rather than one-week wonders.
