Important note before going further
The first schedule ranks players by their NON penalty underlying stats and expected assists converted to FPL points in GW1-9 to date. Those who have taken penalties or are expected to be the penalty taker have an * next to their name
Then there’s there fixture ease ranking their average minutes in the first 9 gameweeks plus their value for money factor and their anytime goalscoring odds
The 2nd schedule shows their xG90 and xA90
I’ve already posted the defender rankings and best attacking defenders rankings to GW8 and midfield player rankings
Player values are as of Thursday 26 November
The schedule ranked by forwards NON penalty underlying stats over GW1-9
350 mins needed to qualify for the schedule
A few players worth commenting on
Players not in the schedule
Ings (18th) is injured. Antonio (12th) is an injury doubt.
Batshuayi (20th), Ashley Barnes (23rd) and Robinson (27th) are all gametime risks,
Ayew (26th) just didn’t make the cut
Aguero and Jesus didn’t make the minutes threshold and with Aguero coming back to fitness it’s hard to give either as an option.
Harry Kane
Do fixtures matter for Spurs or with their counter attacking style are they best suited to teams that don’t park the bus. Kanes stats are exceptional. The fixtures in theory not good.
Calvert Lewin and Richarlison
Leeds and Burnley next before the fixtures stiffen.
Bamford
Stats are incredible. Fixtures are a bit mixed. However Leeds are an attacking monster 4th in shots per game and 6th in Non penalty xG.
Callum Wilson
Great stats and good fixtures plus he has pens. It’s just how good can he be in a team 17th in non penalty xG and last in shots per game
Watkins
Unproven from the Championship but in a side with strong attacking stats, good fixtures and he has pens.
Vardy
Great entry point home to Fulham. The underlying stats don’t look anything flash but they are very similar to last year and you can rely on him overperforming. He just hasn’t yet. He has pens and good next 4 fixtures.
Abraham and Werner
Werner has the minutes and pens. Abraham has the CF position and the better underlying stats before minutes ajustment. However the last 2 games have seen Abraham play 90 minutes. Both started midweek with Abraham playing 69 minutes and Werner 90.
A fixture ease schedule for attacking players
Here’s a graphic where the teams are ranked by the ease of the defences they face over the next 6 gameweeks
