BoyleSports has its own Fantasy5 Insider to advise punters on the most in-form players to target each week. But having played the game a few times already, here's my best tips:
BoyleSports Fantasy5 Tips
One of the best things about BoyleSports Fantasy5 is you can pick the players you want; you don't have to worry about any budget constraints.
But bear in mind the top players come with high scores. It might be unrealistic to think five elite players will all score highly (unless you have five Erling Haaland's of course!)
Balance is key to any winning team, right?
Choosing a blend of players (not just the best ones like De Bruyne, Salah and the aforementioned Haaland) might give you a better chance of making sure every player meets their target.
If you’re new to FPL, you're best to do some research before making your picks. Checking player stats including starts, goals and assists is the way to make sure you bag the points you need!
Right, I’m in. How do I get started?
Just follow the steps below to get the ball rolling.
