FPL Review: Who It's For And What It Does

1. Pick FPL Review if you enjoy building your own plan from projections and a transfer solver.
2. Try the free projection model in the planner before you pay anything through Patreon.
3. Ask any tool whether it publishes its accuracy. FPL Review doesn't publish one as a figure.
4. If you want the move chosen for you, compare tools that name a captain and transfers.
5. Your FPL team ID is enough for any tool. Never hand over your FPL password.

FPL Review describes itself as a projections, planner and transfer solver. In plain terms, it gives you expected-points projections for players, a place to plan your transfers ahead, and a solver that helps you work out which moves fit together.

The free part is the projection model inside the planner. Paid access runs through Patreon. We can't tell you what the tiers cost, because that isn't something we have listed here, so check the page itself before you commit.

It suits the manager who likes to get stuck in. If you enjoy comparing projections, mapping out transfers over several weeks and testing different routes with a solver, a planner-first tool gives you the raw material and leaves the decisions to you.

It also suits anyone who wants to start free. Being able to use the projection model in the planner means you can see whether the way it presents things works for you before Patreon comes into it.

If you already know roughly what you want to do each week and just want good numbers to check your thinking, that is the sweet spot.

Two things are worth knowing before you sign up. First, FPL Review has no AI chat about your team, so you can't type a question about your own squad and get an answer back. Second, it doesn't publish its accuracy as a figure. That doesn't mean the projections are poor. It just means you can't check a published score for them.

Neither of these is a flaw if you wanted a planner. They matter if you were hoping for a tool that tells you what to do with your own team before a deadline, in plain words.

As of 25 October 2026, here is how the others look on what they list:

• Fantasy Football Scout: articles, community, podcast and data tools. Assistant Scout is free, and Chief Scout is £3.25 a month, billed annually. AI chat about your team is not listed, and accuracy is not published.
• Fantasy Football Hub: an AI and expert platform with AI transfers, a team rating, a planner and podcasts. The free tier is an AI team rating (email needed). Starter is £2.49 a month, billed yearly (a 50%-off sale price). AI chat is not listed, and accuracy is not published.
• LiveFPL: live rank, price predictor, planner and ticker, all free, with an optional subscription to remove ads. No AI chat, and accuracy is not published.
• Fantasy Football Fix: data tools, AI transfers, ChatFPL and articles. A free account is available, and Premium is £3.48 a month, billed yearly (a limited-time price). ChatFPL is its AI chat about your team, and accuracy is not published.

So FPL Review sits alongside LiveFPL as a planner-style tool without AI chat. Scout suits people who want reading, community and a podcast. Hub and Fix both lean into AI transfers, and Fix adds a chat.

Start with how you like to play. Do you want to build the plan yourself, or would you rather be told the move? Planners reward the first kind of manager. Tools that name a captain and transfers suit the second.

Next, think about how you'd like to ask questions. If you want to type something about your own team and get an answer, check whether a tool offers that. Of the tools above, Fantasy Football Fix lists ChatFPL, and FFIQ has Ask IQ.

Then look at the accuracy. Every tool in the table above either doesn't publish it or doesn't publish it as a figure, so it's worth looking at what each one does show you.

Finally, remember how FPL works. It publishes every manager's picks only after the deadline passes, so between deadlines any tool reads the squad FPL last locked. And none of them needs your password: the team ID is the number in the web address of your Points page on the official FPL site.

FFIQ is for the manager who wants the call made, not just the numbers. Every call combines 34 calculations with an algorithm that keeps updating as the scenario changes. Premium gives you your move before every deadline: captain, transfers, chips and line-up, in the War Room. It also has IQ, an AI you can ask about your own team, projected points for every player six gameweeks ahead, your mini-leagues, and price-rise alerts the night before.

Some of it is free with no account: a projection for every player six gameweeks ahead, predicted line-ups, the weekly captain and transfer calls, and a free team rater, FPL Rate My Team. FFIQ publishes its record too, with picks made before each deadline and scored on FPL's results, misses included.

It isn't the cheapest option. Premium is £5.99 a month (the Founding Season price, 60% off the standard £14.99), or £59.99 a year. The first month is free, a card is needed, and you can cancel any time. FFIQ never asks for your FPL password, and your team ID is enough. If you're a Scout member, you can run FFIQ alongside your membership.

If you're drawn to FPL Review, try the free projection model first and see whether the planner feels like your kind of tool. For a manager who enjoys the work, it's a sensible choice.

If what you really want is a clear move each week and a way to ask about your own squad, a planner alone may leave you with more homework than you'd like. Our comparison page puts the tools side by side.
