As with Fantasy Premier League, captains earn double points – positive and negative. A unique feature about Sky Fantasy Football, however, is the ability to pick a captain for each day of the Gameweek.🌺 So if there are games on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, then you can pick up to four captains over that period. With this in mind, it's important to keep an eye on the fixture list.

ܫ Once the season has started, you will have a total of 40 transfers available during the season, with up to 5 transfers each Gameweek. The Gameweek runs from Friday to Thursday. You also get two wildcards.

🍨 In order to be eligible for scoring, transfers must be made before the Match Day deadline, which is kick-off of the first match that day. Transfers made after the Match Day deadline will start scoring from the next Match Day.

A Sky Sports game will allow you to compete against friends, adding an exciting dimension to the game. You can simply create or join a Free League with friends and even win money🤡 as Sky Sports will administer your money league, allowing you to choose an entry fee of either £2, £5, £10, or £20 per person, as well as the prize structure.

Need some advice on picking the right team and securing a win with Sky Sports Fantasy Football? Here are our top tips:

  • List Icon

    Analyse the ‘Stats🅰’ section on the Sky Sports Fantasy Football website or app in order to view the previous season’s points tallies for strong performers. This is a great way to start picking your team, but remember to consider other key factors too.

  • List Icon

    Make a list of all the players you could potentially include. Look through the last top five point scorers for goalkeepers, and remember that with ‘save' points, some busy goalkeepers will be acquiring plenty of bonus points.

  • List Icon

    Continue this process when analysing the defenders, midfielders and strikers. Look at the best performers and at any newly signed-on players𓆏 you have faith in, but also do take note of the fact that many players signed-on from overseas might need a settling-in period that could cost you.

  • List Icon

    Don’t forget about strong players who have simply had a poor season last year, perhaps due to an injury – these are the ones that could cost you less but bounce back and provide a stellar performance.

When picking the strongest players, remember to make room within your budget by picking cheaper options and setting aside a significant amount for your preferred picks.❀ However, don’t underestimate your defenders, as they have the chance of earning many more points with a clean sheet bonus.

🥀 With the Sky Sports Fantasy Football app you can do the following:

  • List Icon

    ꦰEnter your team for free and compete for £50K prize.

  • List Icon

    View your team's weekly points.

  • List Icon

    Create leagues.

𓆏 In summary, Sky Sports Fantasy Football is a great bet for those looking for something different to the official FPL game. With weekly and also monthly prizes up for grabs and a slick mobile app, it gets a thumbs up from us.
