Here’s everything we know about the 2020/21 Fantasy Premier League.
When will the new FPL season launch?
Last year the Fantasy Premier League launched on June 27, six weeks prior to the kick-off of the new season.

Hide AdTypically the FPL platform is launched when fixture lists have been released, and according to reports, fixture lists could be released just three weeks before the new season kicks off.
According to The Sun, August 21 has been earmarked as a release date for fixture schedules. If this is the case, it would be reasonable to assume that the FPL platform will be launched between then and September 12.
The fixture schedule will not be released any earlier than August 4 when the Championship play-off final takes place.
How to approach the start of the season
The 2020/21 campaign will be a season like no other due to the delay caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
