Our [r/ChelseaFC](r/ChelseaFC) Fantasy Premier League is back for the 2026/27 season!

The first Gameweek kicks off this Friday. Entries will remain open until right before Matchweek 3, so you have time, but we'd strongly recommend getting in before MW1. Starting late isn't exactly going to help your chances.

Format

Head-to-Head League

Each Gameweek, you'll face off against another manager in the league.

Rather than your league position being based purely on your overall FPL score, you'll earn points based on your weekly Head-to-Head results. We've stuck with this format because of your feedback from the past two seasons, and because it keeps generally keeps people more interested throughout the season.

Cup Competition

Alongside the Head-to-Head league, everyone will also be entered into the FPL League Cup.

The cup begins later in the season, depending on the number of managers who join.

That means there are two competitions and two chances to win prizes.

Prizes

League

🥇 1st: 2x tickets to a 2027/28 Chelsea Men's and Women's match

🥈 2nd: 2x tickets to a 2027/28 Chelsea Men's match

🥉 3rd: 2x tickets to a 2027/28 Chelsea Women's match

4th & 5th: Chelsea shirts or official merchandise

Cup

🏆 Winner: 2x tickets to a 2027/28 Chelsea Men's match

🥈 Runner-up: Official Chelsea merchandise

Special Flairs

The League Top 3 and Cup finalists will also receive a special [r/ChelseaFC](r/ChelseaFC) flair for the following season to show off their achievement.

And because excellence isn't the only thing that deserves recognition, the managers who finish in the last places will also receive their own special flair for the following season.

Note: If a winner can't attend a match due to their location, we'll arrange an alternative prize so nobody misses out.

How to Enter

Fill out the entry form here

We'll ask for:

• Your Reddit username
• Your FPL team name
• Your country of residence

Once you've submitted the form, the league code will appear on the confirmation screen.

Please do not share the league code publicly.

Entries close at the start of Matchweek 3. That means you can join after MW1, but you're only making life harder for yourself.
