Contests

There are multiple contest formats to choose from, including cash and free games, every gameweek on PlayON.

One-on-One and Private Multiplayer contests can be created by the user, with the ability to select a custom prize pot and invitations to friends. It’s a great format for bespoke competitions to battle against friends, with plenty of flexibility.

Public Multiplayer contests are available in the lobby in a number of formats. There’s big prize pools to look out for here, including a guaranteed 2500 pounds prize pot for those entering the Gameweek 1 contest on Saturday 11th August. There are smaller multiplayer competitions available and a free entry contest too.

Rules

Managers have a 100 million budget to spend on 11 players in a 4-4-2 formation: 1 goalkeeper, 4 defenders, 4 midfielders and 2 strikers. There are no restrictions on the number of players selected from each team.

Users can make changes to their final lineup until 1 minute before kick off for the first fixture included within the contest. Beyond this point, all teams are locked. There are no captains in the PlayON format.

Points are awarded for goals, assists, appearance and clean sheets. In addition, points can be accrued for attacking input including shots on target and chances created.

Defensive players can be awarded points for tackles, interceptions and clearances. Goalkeepers are awarded generously for saves and penalty saves.

Points are also deducted for goals conceded in the Goalkeeper and Defender positions, plus yellow and red cards across the pitch.

Tips

Natural goal scorers should perform better than playmakers: goals are awarded twice the number of points than assists and shots on targets are awarded with double the number of points than chances created.

This is something to consider when selecting players from the midfield. Deep-lying defensive midfielders can accrue strong point totals from tackles, interceptions and clearances, but tend to fall short of their more attacking counterparts.

Concentrate on clean sheet potential and attacking threat when selecting defenders, full backs have more opportunity to create chances than centre backs. However, centre backs tend to score well for tackles, interceptions and clearances.

With goalkeepers generously awarded for saves, it’s better to chase strong save potential over clean sheets. Those keepers kept busy during the game should accrue a strong points total.
