Tournament’s background
Premier League footballers will be putting their EA SPORTS FIFA 20 skills to the test for a second round of the ePremier League Invitational tournament. This will consist of multiple clashes and intense matches as they represent their clubs in a knockout tournament.
The players are all competing for the honour of being the second ePL Invitational champion, after Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Diogo Jota triumphed in last month’s inaugural competition versus Liverpool’s Trent Alexander Arnold. The series ended with a biting Golden Goal which favoured Diogo Jota, resulting in a 2-1 win for him.
Prize pool
The prize pool fund for the ePremiere League Invitational is being donated to the #PlayersTogether initiative, which is created by Premier League players as a collective way of generating funds for the National Health Service and sending them where they are needed most.
How to qualify for the main event
For this particular event, since participants have to be Premier League footballers, 1 player from every club in the Premier League is chosen to represent them in the ePremiere League. There are a total of 20 clubs, which means that there are 20 total players for the event, and each week they are swapped.
Tournament format
The second edition of the ePremier League Invitational will follow the same rules and format of the previous tournament, with the winners of the four first-round ties joining the other 12 clubs in the last 16.
