FPL Captain Tips Gameweek 23 – CAPTAIN’S TABLE
Here we assemble the finest stats we can think of to get the best picture of who should wear the armband for your team.
It is a mix of current FPL form, historical goal scoring and assist form v opponents, relative FPL performance per their cost and the difficulty of their upcoming game designed by our in house difficulty ratings system.
Each category is given a weighting, and points assigned relative to that high point. Each category score is totaled for he final score.
The final score is out of 100, with that high mark being a rare occurrence of aligning suns, moons and planets of FPL.
THE VERDICT
Bruno Fernandes tops this week’s Captain’s table, and why not after he was a big part of the 9-0 thrashing of Southampton during the week. He has a great scoring record against Everton already and the Toffees haven’t won at Old Trafford since 2013 (L4 D2). Everton are decent away – 3rd best for the season and undefeated in their last six road trips (5W 1D)
Patrick Bamford is a new inclusion towards the top of the Captain’s table and he has been in form in recent weeks but can he do it consistently is the issue. He has missed the most big chances this season. Leeds play Crystal Palace at home, and they lost 4-1 earlier in the season, and because it is Leeds there’s probably going to be a few goals. Only West Brom matches have seen more goals in the last six games.
James Maddison & Harvey Barnes both feature for Leicester, and few could argue about Maddiosn after a solid midweek, but the question is how attacking they will be against a side like Wolves. There have been quite a few 0-0 between these sides since Wolves were promoted.
Michail Anotnio has been super since his return from injury, and seemed to hit it off nicely with Lingard during the week. They play Fulham who aren’t too bad defensively, but don’t know how to win. Perhaps a rampaging Antonio will open them up this weekend.The big man has a good scoring/assist record against Fulham too.
Ilkay Gundogan & Phil Foden also feature in the top seven, the danger for Foden especially is whether he will play at all. For both the big question is the opposition and the fact that it is another of those big games. Games which are usually tense, tactical and boring affairs for FPL players. Despite Liverpool’s recent woes, you can still imagine a tight game here.
Our Selection – Michail Antonio the obvious answer would be Bruno Fernandes but why not do something different. Especially if your FPL team is a little off the pace.
