Managers in Fantasy Premier League have an additional reason to do well this Gameweek as the FPL Cup starts in Gameweek 15.
Any managers who got 51 points or fewer in Gameweek 14 will be playing in the first round. Anyone who got at least 53 points in Gameweek 14 has received a bye to the second round, in Gameweek 16.
Some of the managers who got 52 points will play in the first round, while others have got a bye.
How the cup works
Each qualifying team who are involved in the first round will be randomly drawn against another.
The winner - the team with the highest Gameweek score minus any transfer points - will progress to the second round and another random draw. The losers are out!
This process continues until the final round in Gameweek 38, when the two remaining teams contest the FPL Cup final.
If a cup match is drawn, then the following tie-breaks will be applied until a winner is found:
1) Most goals scored in the Gameweek
2) Fewest goals conceded in the Gameweek
3) Virtual coin toss
