Some players become far more interesting assets if they\u2019re regularly able to perform well according to the Bonus Points System, as they\u2019re more likely to earn the Bonus Points that are available.

Luckily, we\u2019ve got the full list here. FPL Bonus Points System explained Here\u2019s the full table of how players can earn bonus points, according to the official Fantasy Premier League website: At the end of the match, each player\u2019s points are added up and the highest-scoring player earns 3 points, second gets 2 points, and third gets 1 point. In some cases, players on equal points can both earn points, e.g. two players can earn 1 point each if they\u2019re level according to the BPS Last season, the likes of Kieran Trippier (6.5, DEF), Martin \u00d8degaard (8.5, MID), Harry Kane (12.5, FWD), and Erling Haaland (14.0, FWD) led the way in bonus points, consistently being the difference makers for their teams, making them even more valuable fantasy assets and captains each Gameweek.
