How Good Are the FPL Fixtures?

Fantasy Premier League fixture difficulty rating for three gameweeks.

As shown in the Fixture Planner tool above, Forest have the second-best attacking fixtures in the first three Gameweeks, behind only Newcastle. They have two home games against Bournemouth and Wolves, with an away fixture against newly promoted Southampton in between.

Morgan Gibbs-White: Forest's FPL Maestro

Morgan Gibbs-White emerges as Nottingham Forest's standout FPL asset for the 2024/25 season. The talented midfielder showcased his prowess in the 2023/24 campaign, accumulating an impressive 142 points. His attacking contributions were significant, with 5 goals and 12 assists to his name.

What sets Gibbs-White apart is his set-piece responsibilities. He's first in line for penalties, corners and indirect free-kicks. This additional avenue for points makes him an even more attractive proposition for FPL managers.

Priced at £6.5m, Gibbs-White offers excellent value given his potential for consistent returns. His projected points for the opening Gameweeks (4.2, 3.5, 4.0) indicate he could make an immediate impact.

According to the Predicted Points & Stats tool shown above, he is the top midfielder priced at £6.5m or below for the first three Gameweeks. His teammate, Hudson-Odoi, ranks fourth, but we'll discuss him in more detail later.

Chris Wood: The Differential Dynamo

For managers seeking a differential pick, Chris Wood presents an intriguing option. The New Zealand international had a remarkable 2023/24 season, finding the net 14 times and amassing 131 FPL points. Despite this impressive haul, Wood's ownership remains surprisingly low at just 4.8%, making him a potentially explosive differential.

The image above from the Fix Comparison Matrix tool shows that Wood outperformed both Muniz (£6.0m) and João Pedro (£6.0m) in attacking stats per game for the 2023/24 season.

Priced at £6.0m, Wood allows managers to allocate funds elsewhere while still having a proven goalscorer in their squad. His projected points for the opening fixtures (4.0, 3.8, 3.6) suggest he could be a consistent performer, offering excellent value in the forward position.

Callum Hudson-Odoi: Budget Brilliance

Callum Hudson-Odoi emerges as Forest's best budget option for the 2024/25 season. The former Chelsea winger found his form in the previous campaign, notching 8 goals and 2 assists for a total of 109 FPL points.

At £5.5m, Hudson-Odoi offers excellent value and could be a perfect enabler in midfield. The image above, from the Opta Heatmaps tool, compares his 2023/24 stats per 90 minutes to those of Gibbs-White. With a £1.0m saving, managers would be well justified in choosing the more affordable option.

His projected points for the initial gameweeks (3.5, 3.5, 3.8) indicate he could provide consistent returns at a budget-friendly price point, allowing managers to invest heavily in premium assets elsewhere.

Conclusion: Forest's FPL Treasures

Nottingham Forest offers a range of FPL options to suit various strategies for the 2024/25 season. Whether you're looking for consistent returns with Gibbs-White, a differential edge with Wood, or budget-friendly value with Hudson-Odoi, the Tricky Trees have got you covered.
