FPL -Challenge rules

In ‘Beat the Icon’, managers select a six-a-side team that has no budgetary disabilities, but cannot record more than three players per club.

Since the last deadline for game week is not related to the standard one of FPL, unlimited changes can be made before and during the luminaires, although a player is locked up as soon as the match of their club starts.

‘Classic Rivalry’

In this challenge, changes can be made until 16:30 BST on Sunday, September 14, because Rio has decided to base around the Manchester Derby of that afternoon.

Double points come for Man United and Man City players.

Here are a few attractive names of both Manchester parties.

Erling Haaland (£ 14.1 million)

Starting with the most obvious, an elite Norwegian attacker who usually starts on fire every season.

His previous three -male -city campaigns were full of goals between Game Weeks 1 and 6 and gathered a stunning 28 of them in 18 games.

In fact, his earlier Gameweek 4 trips have brought two hat tricks and a brace.

Already on three goals of three, Haaland is the current competition leader for attempts (14), great opportunities (six) and shots on goal (five), while they are far ahead of the expected target involvement (XGI, 4.16).

Bruno Fernandes (£ 9.0 million)

After Haaland, the highest XGI is one of the opponent Fernandes on Sunday (2.49).

The best of last season for creating opportunities (91) is already a lead for this time (12), all while he makes eight shots.

But what makes the Portuguese playmaker even more attractive for FPL managers is his tendency to collect the brand new defensive contribution points of the game, and does this two of three times.

At the point that his owners and captainers in Gameweek 3 disappoint, the successful stop-time penalty from Fernandes Ruben Amorim’s side brought a much needed victory over Burnley.

He also has a good recent record towards Man City: three goals and three assists during their last eight meetings, in all competitions.

Bryan Mbeumo (£ 8.1 million)

A very popular FPL asset when in Brentford, Mbeumo, was second place in 2024/25 when it came to points (236) and attacking returns (29).

Although his attraction has faded somewhat since he moved to Old Trafford, knowing that he will not take punishments, the Cameroon International is already outside the goal with a goal against Burnley.

With the help of the statistics of our members in the area, no teammate defeats the shots of 26-year-old (seven) or touches (19) in the box, where the last third is in the entire competition, just like his nine chances created.

Only Haaland and colleague New Signing Matheus Cunha (£ 8.1 million) hit his four shots on goal, so with Cunha doubt after hurting his hamstring, Mbeumo feels like the second best Red Devil for this FPL challenge.

Omar Marmoush (£ 8.4 million)

Back to Pep Guardiola’s Lot, Marmoush started two of the three times and only exceeded 60 minutes once. Yet it has been enough time to set up two big opportunities and to help Brighton in Gamweek 3.

It is a nice change from the introductory half season of the Egyptian. After arriving from Frankfurt in January, the wide Vooruit took an impressive seven league goals and one assist, although they were all in home games.

Rayan Ait-Nouri (£ 6.0 million)

View Flying Full-Back Ait-Nouri for a third man City Pick.

Last season he achieved more attacking returns (11) than all other FPL defenders and earned a summer movement of 16th wolves placed for a defense that is fresh to keep 13 clean sheets and to admit the least shots (355).

So far combine are two full matches for an XGI of 0.52.

Matthijs de Ligt (£ 5.0m)

Finally, managers are not allowed to worry about the generally poor beauty record of Man United of recent years.

The April derby ended 0-0 and the Center-Back De Ligt has protected a few defensive contribution points in two of the matches of this campaign.

Defenders receive this when they terminate a match with 10 or more approvals, blocks, interceptions and tackles. Midfielders and attackers must reach 12, but also included with recovery.

Names from elsewhere

Of course, one or more of your six FPL challenge places can still go non-manchester players, although their points are not doubled.

What is immediately noticeable is Liverpool opposite Burnley and Crystal Palace in Sunderland.

With an unlimited budget it is difficult to prevent Mohamed is wrong (£ 14.5 million) in such a fixture, despite a quieter than usual start. None of his attacking return arrived until deep in the stopping time.

Maybe the Turf Moor trip allows it Florian Wirtz (£ 8.4 million) to get rid of the goal, or Hugo Ekitike (£ 8.7 million) to keep scoring.

As for Palace, they are apparently hindered by a late Rear seat (£ 7.5 million) Sales and Hermila Hare‘s (£ 6.5 million) injury, but in form Jean-Philippe Mateta (£ 7.5 million) Seted on Aston Villa, after strikes in the Conference League and Community Shield.

In defense they offer attacking wing-back Daniel Munoz (£ 5.5 million), more Maxence Lacroix (£ 5.0 million) – One of only four in its position to have reached at least 10 defensive contributions in all three competitions. Lacroix is ​​fresh to win 11 points in Villa Park and brings a strong target threat.
