Once you have set up your account and chosen a team name you are ready to start playing.
FPL is a game that casts you in the role of a Fantasy manager of Premier League players.
You must pick a squad of 15 players from the 2021/22 Premier League, who score points for your team based on their performances for their clubs in PL matches.
Prices are given to players based on the number of FPL points they are projected to deliver and you are limited to a budget of £100.0m for your 15-man squad.
Points are awarded to players for goals, assists, saves and clean sheets.
Players can also earn additional bonus points in Fantasy as a reward for a good performance in a match (see the Bonus Points System for more).
Your team's points for the match round or "Gameweek" will be scored by your starting XI. But if a starting player does not feature for their club in that round of matches, the points scored by the first player on your bench will automatically be counted instead.
The same process occurs if two or three starting players fail to appear.
You can also earn extra points by selecting a captain from your starting line-up. The captain's points are doubled in that Gameweek.
