EARN REAL-WORLD FANTASY POINTS
Your starting XI earns fantasy points based on how the corresponding players perform in real-world football matches. Points are awarded for appearances, goals, assists and clean sheets, while yellow and red cards can reduce a player's score. Only players selected in your starting XI score points for your team.
HOW POINTS ARE SCORED
Only players selected in your starting XI earn points towards your total. There are currently no substitutions, meaning players outside the starting XI earn zero points for the Gameweek.

CAPTAIN, VICE-CAPTAIN & GAMEWEEK RULES
CAPTAIN
Select a Captain from your starting XI before each Gameweek. The Captain earns double Gameweek points.
VICE-CAPTAIN
Select a Vice-Captain from your starting XI. If the Captain does not play at all, the double-points bonus automatically transfers to the Vice-Captain.
GAMEWEEK
Squad locks 2 hours before kick-off. No substitutions allowed. Points calculated after the final match.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I start building my collection?
Every new player receives 11 free player cards when they begin — 8 Common cards and 3 Rare cards. These give you enough players to build your first starting XI. You can then expand your collection as you progress through the game.
Do players outside my starting XI earn fantasy points?
No. Only the 11 players selected in your starting XI earn fantasy points for that Gameweek. There are currently no substitutions.
When does my starting XI lock?
Your squad locks 2 hours before the first match of the Gameweek kicks off. After this point, your starting XI, Captain and Vice-Captain cannot be changed for that Gameweek.
What happens if my Captain doesn't play?
If your Captain does not play at all during the Gameweek, the double-points bonus automatically transfers to your Vice-Captain.
What happens when I collect a duplicate player card?
If you collect a player card you already own, it is added to that card's duplicate count rather than becoming another usable copy. Duplicates can be combined with coins to upgrade the card.
Do upgraded cards earn more fantasy points?
Yes. Each upgrade level adds +1 bonus point to that card's Gameweek score. This bonus is added on top of the player's normal fantasy points from their real-world performance.
