fantasy premier league tips midfielders GW38 – player rankings
This is the 2nd article in our player rankings series. See the defender and GK player rankings
Methodology
I’ve generally started with a selection of midfielders who I think will start in GW38.
I’ve then looked at their expected goals and assists data in 18/19 so far as well as how it relates to their historical numbers. After that I’ve then adjusted it for their ability to over/underperform, their bonus potential, their fixtures over the next 6 and any specific 18/19 factors and numbers.
There is no adjustment for upcoming fixture strength with only 1 game left.
Stats definitions
PP90 mins adjusted: I’ve taken their Points per 90 and adjusted them for average minutes played in the last 10 games.

ATGS odds – 1 bookies anytime goalscoring odds for the player. It assumes they start and doesn’t include assist potential.

Players who are injury monitors
Aside from the usual last day rotation risk the following players are injury monitors
Salah
From what I’ve read today it seems likely he will be fit for Sunday. The Klopp press conference seemed quite positive
Richarlison and Anderson
Both are injury monitors. There is a West Ham and Everton press conference later today
