GameDay Squad Football scores by position, so the same stat can be worth a different number of points depending on where your player lines up. A goal scored by a goalkeeper is worth more than a goal scored by a forward, and a clean sheet is worth nothing at all to a midfielder. Your round score is built from two things: the raw statistics your players record in their real matches, and the Player Score Multiplier attached to each of your cards. ### In game Statistics (Standard Fantasy Sports)

New for 2026/27, a Clean Sheet is awarded to any eligible player who plays **60 or more minutes**, down from the full 90 last season. The Goal Bonus is also new and stacks on top of the points for each individual goal. ### Card Multiplier (Unique to GameDay Squad) This is where GameDay Squad separates itself from every other fantasy platform. Once a player's raw score is calculated from the table above, it is multiplied by the Player Score Multiplier on the card you own. | Card Type | Player Score Multiplier | | --------------------- | :---------------------: | | Bronze | 1.0 | | Silver | 1.1 | | Gold | 1.2 | | Platinum | 1.3 | | Diamond | 1.4 | | Old Season Legend | 1.45 | | Current Season Legend | 1.5 | | All Star | 1.35 | | Prize Card | 1.4 | Two coaches can own the same player and score completely different totals. The rarer your card, the more every single stat that player records is worth to you. ### Determining your Round Score Your round score is the combined total of all 15 of your scoring players, 11 on the Field and 4 on the Bench, after their multipliers have been applied. Bench players score exactly the same as Field players, and Football does not drop a lowest score, so every one of your 15 counts. **Important things to know** Reserve players **do NOT** score. Only your 15 scoring players, plus any emergency who is correctly triggered, will contribute to your round total. Inactive players score **ZERO** points regardless of what they do in a real match. A player who has recently transferred to a new club will score **ZERO** points until the platform has been updated to reflect the transfer. If a postponed fixture means a team plays twice in the same round, only the **higher** of that player's two individual scores will count.
