Here’s our fantasy premier league captain choice GW26 article where we look at various ways of assessing the best captain pick for the gameweek. As usual we look at the fixtures, the bookies odds, the FPL advice site polls, any of the top 10 FPL managers we can find, our captain metrics table and the FFGeek choice.
FANTASY PREMIER LEAGUE CAPTAIN CHOICE GW26
THE FIXTURES
Here’s the fixtures for GW26:
The bookies see 4 teams as very strong favourites with the following win odds for £1 invested. It’s likely the captain choice will come from one of those teams. Here’s the teams with suggestions:
Chelsea (Swansea h) at £1.25 – Costa, Hazard
Everton (Sunderland h ) at £1.40 – Lukaku
Spurs (Stoke h) at £1.44 – Kane, Eriksen, Alli
THE BOOKIES ODDS
Here we look at one of the bookies anytime goal scoring odds. I’ve tried to only put players in who have some gametime security. It’s the return for £1 invested. Odds are as of Friday night and remember they assume the player starts and don’t count assist potential.
£1.61 – Costa
£1.70 – Lukaku
£1.83 – Kane
£2.15 – Alli
£2.37 – Firmino
£2.50 – Rondon
THE FPL ADVICE SITE POLLS.
Firstly here’s the FFGeek poll:
Here’s the summary of the other main advice polls:
It’s worth noting that site 1 is the site with the most traffic and probably replicates the top 10k FPL managers more than any other site
TOP 10 FPL MANAGERS AND BEST SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS
I have access to only 1 of the top 10 managers and he’s going for Lukaku. That seems to be the general trend among the best social media accounts
USING VARIOUS MEASURES
Lukaku just edges it with 6 spots from Costa with 5. That was followed by Mane 3, Hazard 3 and Kane 2
THE FFGEEK CHOICE
I’m going with Lukaku
Good luck with whoever you choose
