Season Long contest on Premier League – how it works

Choose your team

From your 15-player squad, each game week you can choose the best 11 players for your game week team.
Select your favourite formation and which players will score you the most points. Your remaining 4 players will make up your substitute bench.

All points by your starting 11 players will be added to your game week score. If one or more of your starting 11 players doesn’t play. They will be automatically substituted with a like for like player on your substitute bench. (Defenders for Defenders, Midfielders for Midfielders…)

If You forget to enter a new team for the upcoming game week by its starting time the platform will automatically insert the one from the previous game week to fill the void, but if this team is not available or it differs in its players’ roster from your current 15-player squad then the latter will be used instead.

Select your Captain

Pick a Captain from your game week team to earn extra points. (2X Goalkeepers & Defenders, 1.5X Midfielders & Forwards).
If your Captain doesn’t play you will not earn any additional points in that game week.

Substitutions
Your bench is the safety net in case of injuries or unforeseen events that might affect your starting 11. If a player has not played in the game week, they will be substituted for another player of the same position on your bench, as long as the subbed player earnt game week points.

All changes to your team must be made 5 minutes before the game week starts

Postponed Games

If a match is postponed and it will no longer be played in the original schedule date, any players who are affected will not score points that week.

The original game week will remain open until the postponed match is completed later in the season. The final game week score will then update and be reflected in your league total.

Please note future games weeks will continue to roll on and open then close, before the game week with the postponed match is complete.

If a GW is about to start and you have not picked your team’s formation.

  •  Sportito will use your previous GW’s formation if no transfers have been made.
  • 4-4-2 by default if transfers have been made.

Picking the best formation for each GW can help you maximise points.
