AVERAGE v Macavelli FC

Why a fixture says AVERAGE

This division has 15 managers — an odd number — so in each Gameweek one manager has no one to play. Fantasy Premier League fills that fixture with AVERAGE, the average score across the whole game.

AVERAGE is a scoring rule, not a competitor: it has no account, no squad and no place in the table. It is why the division counts 15 managers and not 16. Which manager draws it changes from Gameweek to Gameweek.

This fixture counts like any other: 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw. Only the manager’s result is recorded — AVERAGE takes no place in the table.
