Here’s our fantasy premier league gameweek 29 article where we continue our experiment with the FFGeek alternate teams. One is a bookies odds based team and the other a shots on target based team. It was a fantastic week for the bookies team.
FANTASY PREMIER LEAGUE GAMEWEEK 29 – THE ALTERNATE FFGEEK TEAMS
THE BOOKIES TEAM
This is a team based on the anytime goal scoring odds of the bookies. It replaces the attacking player with the worst anytime goalscoring odds for the player with the best anytime goalscoring odds for the next game. No other factors are taken into account. It does work within a basic team structure though. Two transfers every 2 weeks except for injuries. Captain is player with the best goal scoring odds
GW28 score 77 (no hits) (average 19) Current overall rank 41k team value £100m
An improvement of rank in 83k
Here’s the team for this week.
I’ve got 2 transfers to use. The anytime goal scoring odds for the attacking players are all in the £2.00 range. None are in the £3.00 range so no transfers needed there. The closest was Son for Antonio. Antonio is £2.75 and Son is £2.10.
The defence was another story with only 1 player in the £2.00 range. So I’ve removed the worst clean sheet odds of McAuley at £5.00 for Valencia. His clean sheet odds are £2.10 and he’s also got good attacking potential.
THE SHOTS ON TARGET TEAM
This is a team based on the Shots on Target underlying stat. This is widely thought to be the most accurate predictor of goals. The team transfer policy is to replace the attacking player with the worst Shots on Target stats for the player with the best Shots on Target stats. There’s no other factors taken into account. More than 1 player from an attacking team is allowed. The stat stands alone and not related to opposition like the bookies odds team. Shots on target are assessed on a per minute basis rather than an aggregate basis. The captain choice is the highest ranked pollster
GW28 score 46 ( average 19) Overall rank 447k team value £99.6m
An improvement in rank of 134k. Disappointing score though and my rank remains poor
Here’s the team for this week. Eriksen to replace Stanislas
1 transfer as the injury crisis is quite desperate. Lukaku as the poll leader is captain
