Def: Chilwell 🔵

Expected Points: 5.1

Next Fixture: Wolves (A)

Came off early mid-week and expected to start. Chelsea could have a new (or rather, returning) manager bounce. 60% chance of not blanking!

Mid: Rashford 😈

Expected Points: 7.2

Next Fixture: Everton (H)

Expected to play down the middle again against a struggling Everton side. Man Utd’s main threat with a 49% chance of scoring.

Fwd: Haaland 🤖🔹(who else)

Expected Points: 7.8

Next Fixture: Southampton (A)

Highest expected points of any player and the lowest chance of blanking according to the odds. 73% chance of not blanking and a 67% chance of scoring. The fear of not owning Haaland against the bottom team in the league is enough to warrant the transfer.

1. Grealish🔹

Ownership: 3.8%

Expected Points: 5.9

Next Fixture: Southampton (A)

Finally in great form and has started the last 10 Premier League games for City (seems to have beat the Pep Roulette). Huge bargain less than 7m, almost half the price of KDB.

2. Stones 🪨 🔹

Ownership: 1.9%

Expected Points: 5.6

Next Fixture: Southampton (A)

Our favourite game this week: Pep Roulette. Stones seems to be playing in a CDM role and will also be a goal threat against Southampton who struggle defending set-pieces. Less than 2% owned!

3. Isak ⚫️⚪️

Ownership: 6.1%

Expected Points: 5.5

Next Fixture: Brentford (A)

Expected to start this weekend despite being benched midweek (he did score as a sub though!) Newcastle seem unstoppable at the moment.

4. Barnes 🦊

Ownership: 2.4%

Expected Points: 5.1

Next Fixture: Bournemouth (H)

In great form with very a favourable fixture. Bournemouth rank worst for shots in the box conceded and worst for goals conceded all season.

5. L. Martínez 😈

Ownership: 7%

Expected Points: 4.6

Next Fixture: Everton (H)

With uncertainty over Shaw’s fitness and rotation between Dalot and Wan-Bissaka, Martínez could be a great route to United’s defence. United have not conceded in their last 3 home games and Everton are bottom for goals scored.

Playing it Safe: Haaland 🤖🔹

If you are leading your mini-leagues or want to play it safe, Haaland is the obvious pick. His expected ownership will likely be over 100% so not captaining him (or worse, not owning him) could be dangerous.

Chasing Rank: Watkins 🟣

However, if you are chasing rank and looking for a “high-risk, high-reward” pick, Watkins is the ideal choice. Incredible underlying stats and playing Nottingham Forest at home.
