Frequently asked questions
- What is FPL fixture difficulty (FDR)?
- Fixture Difficulty Rating (FDR) is a 1–5 score the official Fantasy Premier League game assigns to each upcoming match, where 1 is the easiest opponent and 5 is the hardest. It helps managers spot which teams have a favourable run of games for transfers and captaincy.
- How is the difficulty rating calculated?
- The ratings shown here come directly from the official FPL fixtures feed, which factors in each team’s recent form and strength. We display the home (H) or away (A) opponent and colour-code the difficulty so you can read a run of fixtures at a glance.
- How should I use the fixture ticker?
- Target players from teams with a green run of fixtures over the next few gameweeks, and consider moving players out of teams facing several red (4–5) matches. Double gameweeks show two fixtures in one column; blank gameweeks show a dash.
- How often is the ticker updated?
- The data refreshes hourly from the official FPL API, so opponent assignments and difficulty ratings stay current through fixture reschedules and gameweek rollovers.
