In this blog, the three best Captaincy options for Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Gameweek 36 are discussed. Picks are in the below format:
Salah has found the back of the net just twice over the last six Gameweeks. But the Egyptian international is top for shots in the box (SiB) (22) amongst midfielders over that period, while only Palmer (nine) has been afforded more 'big chances' (BC) than his six. Liverpool have scored 43 goals in home matches this season (third) and are ranked top for 'Expected Goals' (xG) (49.19). Their opponents Spurs have conceded 28 goals (sixth) in 16 away matches and have kept four clean sheets. The North London side are ranked third for shots conceded (220) and fifth for xGC (27.69) in away matches. Our Predicted Points & Stats tool currently projects a point score of 7.3 for Salah.
Haaland has scored 11 goals in 14 home appearances this season, with only Isak (14) faring better. Meanwhile, only Darwin (61) has taken more shots than his 59, while only Isak (24) has been afforded more BC than his 19. As the below image from our Opta Player Heatmaps feature shows, he has averaged 6.6 FPL points per home game this season. Man. City have scored 43 goals in home matches this season with only Villa (45) and Newcastle (48) more prolific on home turf. The Manchester side are ranked second for shots (319) and sixth for xG (35.41). Their visitors Wolves have conceded 28 goals in away games and have kept just two clean sheets. The Midlands side are ranked seventh for shots conceded (239) and eighth for xGC (30.03). Our Predicted Points & Stats tool currently projects a point score of 6.9 for Haaland.
Havertz has been one of the league's form players with four goals, three assists and 53 FPL points over the last six Gameweeks, only B. Fernandes (56) and Palmer (68) have managed more. As the Opta Stats Sandbox image below shows, his 12 shots on target (SoT) is only bettered by Palmer (16) and he is ranked fifth for xG (3.03). Arsenal have scored 43 goals in home matches this season (third) and are ranked fourth for shots (309). Their visitors Bournemouth have conceded 34 goals in away matches and have kept four clean sheets. The Cherries are ranked 15th for shots conceded (278) and 11th for xGC (31.41). Our Predicted Points & Stats tool currently projects a point score of 5.5 for Havertz.
