This is it: after two months of team drafts, RMTs, derailed bandwagons, pre-season red herrings, transfer sagas, injury scares and endless Twitter threads, the 2023/24 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) season gets underway.

We’ve collated all our Gameweek 1-specific content in this article to help you make those big calls before Friday evening.

But make sure to check out our comprehensive pre-season page for a lot, lot more information on the action and news that has taken place over the summer. There are dozens upon dozens of other articles such as Scout Notes on the pre-season friendlies, Scout Reports on the new signings and plenty more besides.

And don’t forget your Fantasy Football Scout subscription before the new campaign. There’s still 30% off on annual subscriptions and the price you pay now will be locked in for the duration of your Membership!

    Don't forget to check your team, and check it twice. When its busy/laggy sometimes changes don't work. Also, sometimes if you make a change, your captain chip moves to another player.
