HOW DO THE CUP MATCHES WORK?
The FFS Cup is very similar to the Fantasy Premier League’s own cup competition.
Entrants qualifying for the first round were randomly drawn against each other and the winner of the tie is the one who has the highest score of that Gameweek, minus points spent on transfers (as in the original game and in head-to-head scores).
In the event of a tie, the manager highest in the overall FPL rankings after the tie will progress.
