I asked 5 professional scouts and 5 performance analysts to predict the highest FPL scorer in GW31. Scouts: Wilson ×3, Andersen, Bassey Analysts: Bassey ×3, Wilson, Murphy CB attacking returns are obviously low-probability by default, but the opponent weakness, specifically Burnley's recent decline in defending set pieces makes Fulham CBs and Harry Wilson stand out as the best options. Burnley defenders often fail to engage physically strong opponents in dead-ball situations. While aerial duels can be a weakness for Bassey, his physicality allows him to thrive against teams that don't aggressively contest second balls or initial headers. In the last match against Burnley, he won the most duels and still found himself in completely unmarked situations, one of which he scored from. Fulham have also leaned heavily into asymmetric set-piece routines recently, overloading one zone so the weak-side CB gets separation. That's where Bassey often ends up as the free man. Andersen is also very aggressive attacking these situations, although based on recent routines his ceiling might be slightly lower, the matchup still suits him. Burnley rank as the worst team in the league for conceding threat from CBs, so It's not just set pieces either. Burnley are also failing to engage CBs in build-up. Their press is passive, forwards don't screen properly, and midfielders don't step out to confront advancing CBs, which means time, space, and freedom to carry or pick passes. This is pretty much the ideal matchup for the profiles of Bassey and Andersen. Harry Wilson benefits indirectly from all of this. If CBs can carry forward easily, Burnley's shape gets distorted, the midfield gets dragged, and space opens in the half-spaces. More advanced CB touches means more final-third entries and more chances for cutbacks, second balls, and edge-of-the-box shots. It's just a very good opponent for him, especially in terms of receiving early against a disorganised block. Set pieces are a nice bonus on top.

Those of us who have known the truth about Bruno Fernandes have said 'there's him & then there's everyone else'? Here is the proof of that quote. In a league where goals are so hard to come by, he is a living, breathing hub of creation. This is absurd.

2nd half became harder to navigate since Newcastle basically sat deep in their 4-5-1 shape. Chelsea used the 2-2-6 shape but couldn't break them down. Created only low xG shots and didn't look like scoring. Delap's shot in the 74th minute was the closest. stats from @xgstat . Follow them and go to their site for more in-depth stats.

@aSamuelTV @FPLGOAT7 Hey - the beauty of the platform is that you can do this whenever you like at your own discretion! 1. Use your FPL app to shortlist the players you want to search. 2. Head to the players table to filter, select and compare the players by xGI. DM us if you need help doing this🙂

@xgstat @FPLGOAT7 Can you do xgi for popular FPL picks for each GameWeek and past 4-5 games?

This is why looking at expected points over a long run can help make better choices and calls. Wolves 2 - 0 Villa

Villa win 60% of their away matches, but their away form based on xPts alone would put them in 15th, with 3 expected losses in the last 5. That said, Wolves concede disproportionate xG through their left side, exactly where Villa focus their attacks. Pre-match report below 👇

@peter_kamaras74 Exactly

@xgstat Ødegaard is better when Arsenal struggle in build-up phase. Meny times he goes deep to ask of the ball. Eze can bring more shots in the final third.

Eze vs Ødegaard is two different profiles: Finisher vs Creator. Eze: - 0.32 xG/90 - 2.56 shots/90 - 3.0 touches in box Ødegaard: - 0.24 xA/90 - 0.99 key passes/90 - 7.7 progressive passes Eze wins games. Ødegaard runs games.

Last 5 Gameweeks. 🔥 Best attacks (xG created): - Chelsea: 11.3xG - Man City: 10.5xG - Crystal Palace: 9.7xG 🧱 Best defences (xGA conceded): - Arsenal: 3.7xG - Man City: 4.6xG - Man United: 5.1xG

Okay, the support this year has been absolutely mental. I genuinely didn't realise how much this stuff was reaching people. Really appreciate it🙏

And Tottenhams recent xForm!

If results matched performances, this would be the Premier League table as of GW27. This is based on expected points (xPts) - what teams should have earned from chance quality. - Arsenal would be level - Leeds would be 6th ↑ - Villa would be 9th ↓

Last 3 Gameweeks. Most attacking threat (xGI). 🥇 Cole Palmer - 3.51 🥈 Igor Thiago - 2.89 🥉 Bruno Guimarães - 2.22
