fantasy premier league GW4 fixture ease schedule
FIXTURE EASE SCHEDULE
Just to remind you if you don’t remember it from last season. The team ranked 1 has the best fixtures from an attacking view point over the next 3 weeks. There are an extra columns for the next 6 weeks.
I’ve marked in green the teams that have the best fixtures over the first 3 weeks and 6 weeks and these will be the teams that I will give attacking player suggestions to
Attacking Player suggestions
So I’m going to do attacking player suggestions from the 2 clubs in green who rank in the top 6 for both the next 3 and the next 6 fixtures
Burnley
£5.5m Mid Brady and £6.0m forward Vokes are my choices here.
Brady has a points per match of 3.7 and is the principle set piece taker. Only 1 assist to date but has looked an assist threat throughout the season so far. He is miles above his team mate in key pass stats and if you read our underlying stats part 2 article you’ll see that only Mkhitaryan has better expected assist stats than Brady so far this season. In key passes he’s 5th in midfielders to Mkhitaryan, Fabregas, Silva and Ozil. You can see this in part 1 of our underlying stats article
Vokes with a PPG of 5.3 appears to be the first choice CF now for Burnley. He scored 2 goals in the opening win at Chelsea although the Spurs game and substitution after 56 minutes highlighted the minutes risk that seems to come with Burnley forwards. His underlying stats are good and he’s 5th for shots in the penalty area among forwards. You can also see these in part 1 of our underlying stats article
Next 6 fixtures
Crystal Palace (H)
Liverpool (A)
Huddersfield (H)
Everton (A)
West Ham (H)
Man City (A)
Newcastle
I think we need a settling down with the forward position so I’ve concentrated on £5.0m LAM Atsu and £5.9m RAM Ritchie as the suggestions
Ritchie has a PPG of 2.7 with a single assist in the opening 3 games. He is the lead man for set pieces and is also the likely penalty taker. He leads the mids in shots in the box as provided by whoscored.com but has been disappointing so far in key passes.
Atsu has a PPG of 3.3 and also has a single assist in the opening 3 games. He is slightly behind Ritchie in shots in the box and has the same disappointing key pass rate.
Next 6 fixtures:
Swansea (A)
Stoke (H)
Brighton (A)
Liverpool (H)
Southampton (A)
Crystal Palace (H)
