One-stop Kop: Supercoach EPL, everything you need to know week two


<p>To kick-off the One-Stop Kop article for the Supercoach EPL season, we’ll start with a reminder for those new to Supercoach in general.</p>



<p>Supercoach EPL, isn’t the same as Fantasy Premier League…</p>



<p>Obviously, but the game dynamics are very different.</p>



<p>Aside from the scoring system, it’s the price swings which really differ from game-to-game.</p>



<p>Price swings in FPL are based on ownership numbers and can change at any time during the week and tend to be more minor, Supercoach is based purely on performance and will result in more significant price changes.</p>

<p>It’s a long season, building squad value is integral to your long-term success.</p>



<p>Generate cash in your team to allow yourself to maximise gun players in your team down the track.</p>



<p>For example. Mo Salah is the most expensive player in the game at a whopping $15.55m, that’s almost $3m more than the next highest priced player.</p>



<p>It’s warranted, he’s the Egyptian King for a reason.</p>



<p>But there’s also a reason he’s owned by just 30% of all Supercoaches.</p>



<p>He’s priced at top dollar and those avoiding are hoping he drops in value, allowing them to pick him up at a discount later on while generating squad value with value prospects elsewhere.</p>



<p>The prospect of a player rising or falling in value should dictate your trades early in the season, arguably more so than straight points potential each week.</p>



<p>If you sacrifice a few points early on for the generation of cash, it’ll result in a squad stacked with the best Supercoach EPL has to offer later on.</p>



<p>Here’s the key pointers to consider as we head into Supercoach EPL week two.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>WEEK TWO KICK-OFF</strong></h2>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>BREAKEVENS</strong></h2>



<p>Breakevens are the score required for the player to either make money or lose money.</p>



<p>They are calculated off a player’s average from their past three games.</p>



<p>It’s important to note, as players have currently only played one game these numbers will be slightly skewed until their second game is played this weekend.</p>



<p>Therefore, their prices won’t change until after round three is completed.</p>
