PREMIER LEAGUE TEAM + PLAYER DATA

Friday Black
Friday Black

There are hundreds of player and team statistics and heatmaps available, which can help guide your Fantasy transfer decisions.

“Don’t go chasing last week’s points”, the old mantra goes. By looking at underlying data, you can see which players are likely to repeat big Fantasy hauls in the following games.

Perhaps the world’s best FPL boss, Fabio Borges, swears by ‘xG’ – and you’ll find lots of expected goals data in our Premium Members Area, too.

PLAYER PROFILES

Friday Black

Every FPL asset has their own Player Profile, too, where you can look at heatmaps, average position graphics, xG shot maps and all manner of data.

This includes a Gameweek-by-Gameweek breakdown of their numbers:

STATSBOMB DATA

As of this season, we’re also offering our Members access to StatsBomb data.

For the uninitiated, the StatsBomb xG model uses additional context including the position of the goalkeeper, defenders, pressure and shot height to accurately measure the quality of chances, informing Fantasy managers with the very best data.

You can read more about the wealth of StatsBomb figures available for subscribers in this article.

RATE MY TEAM AND PROJECTIONS

Our Projections and Rate My Team (RMT) algorithms predict how many points your FPL players and team will score each Gameweek.

These features were explained by RMT’s Professor – aka Chris Atkinson – in a Hot Topic.

ADVICE FROM LEADING FPL MANAGERS

You’ll get exclusive content from some of the best Fantasy managers in the business, including Five-time top 1k finisher Tom Freeman, three-time top 200 finisher Lateriser, three-time top 500 finisher FPL General, eight-time top 10k finisher Zophar, one of the world’s best all-round Fantasy managers Obay Eid and more.

LIVE HALL OF FAME

Non-members can view our Career Hall of Fame, which is updated only after the end of each season, but subscribers get access to the more regularly updated Live Hall of Fame to see where they rank compared to some FPL greats.

You can also click on each manager listed to access their latest FPL team.

SEASON TICKER

Another benefit is our Season Ticker.

Premium Members can sort by fixture difficulty and find out which teams’ matches rotate well.

Disagree with the Fantasy Football Scout difficulty ratings? Add your own to customise your experience!

A Football League ticker is also available, for those playing Fantasy EFL.

HEAD-TO-HEAD COMPARISONS

Compare both teams and players head to head, with over 100 key statistics to study side by side.

MATCH ANALYSIS

Analysis of every Premier League fixture (going back to 2011/12!) in our Match Centre, together with charts that plot average positions and our collection of heatmaps for touches, shots and chances created, among other statistics.

CUSTOM STATS TABLES

Premium Members can also create custom tables based on the data available and share them with other subscribers.

Perhaps the most famous of these is Joe’s Goals Imminent table, which looks to predict which underperforming assets will find the net next.

LIVE GAMEWEEK DASHBOARD

Black Friday deal: Get a seven-day free Premium Membership trial! 7

If you haven’t seen it already, the beta version of our new Premium Members Area gives you a customised dashboard detailing your latest points and where you rank in the world.

Users can find it via this link. You only have to type in your FPL ID number (so no password/email) to see the visuals.

TESTIMONIES

2018/19 Fantasy Premier League champion Adam Levy was a paid-up Premium Member of our site and he discussed what tools of ours he finds most useful in an interview after his triumph.

In previous seasons we’ve helped FPL winners Tom Fenley and Simon March, while in 2015/16 we were thrilled to see Ed Masters – the winner of that year’s Members’ League – finish third in the overall rankings.

In 2017/18, Paul Gee went one better. He won our Members’ League and finished second, losing out to champion Yusuf Sheikh by just eight points.


HOW TO END THE FREE TRIAL

If you don’t want to commit to a Premium Membership after this free trial, make sure you cancel before the seven-day trial period is over.

      Palmer, Johnson, Salah, Mbeumo
      Wood, Havertz, Cunha
      Subs: Fabianski, ESR, Mykolenko, Greaves 1FT £4.0 ITB

      Biggest priority target this week?
      A) Saka
      B) J.Pedro
      C) Isak
      D) Jackson

        I took a 4pt hit to get saka and Pedro b4 I was priced out

        1. Deulofail
          • 8 Years
          1 month, 22 hours ago

          What about Hazza44's team though?

      2. Deulofail

        A. Wait to assess forwards because you can.

      Is a threemium midfield of Saka, Palmer and Salah still the way to go or should Haaland owners still keep him, because this is my dilemma

      GW13 Haaland & Semenyo > Cunha & Saka
      GW14 Mbeumo > Palmer

      All FTs and gives me a Salah, Palmer, Saka midfield trio

      Any ideas would be appreciated

      1. Gooner Kebab

      2. Deulofail
        • 8 Years
        1 month, 21 hours ago

        Your plan looks good to me. A nice way of dealing with Mbeumo's fixture swing in the wrong direction.

        Still, there's nothing wrong about sticking with Haaland and trying to find an alternatively route to points, while others are spending FTs to lock out 3 midfield slots.Maybe Odegaard and Gordon score as well as Palmer, or you can be more flexible to bring in Fernandes if he hits form when fixtures improve, etc, etc.

      3. G Banger
        • 6 Years
        1 month, 21 hours ago

        Not doing similar moves last week cost me 23 points, he's gone from my team by Friday.

    4. Stimps
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 21 hours ago

      Worth a -8?

      TAA, Semenyo, Raul -> Saka, Pedro, Timber

      1. rvp786
        • 13 Years
        1 month, 21 hours ago

        pedro/saka alone could pay off that hit comfortbly

    5. Dilzy
      • 15 Years
      1 month, 21 hours ago

      How would you rescue this team?:

      A) Haaland & Rogers/Semenyo -> Cunha & Salah (-4)
      B) The same transfers + Jimenez to Isak (-8)
      C) Just Jimenez -> Isak for free

      Fabianski
      Hall Ait Nouri Gabriel
      Palmer Mbeumo Fernandes Rogers
      Haaland Jimenez Welbeck

      (Areola Lewis Semenyo Greaves)
      1FT, 4.1 ITB

      1. Alnair

        If there's ever a time to "safely" sell Haaland it's when his away at Liverpool so A.

            Is this as "safe" as a City goal v Spurs' makeshift defence? 😉

            1. Alnair
              • 8 Years
              1 month, 20 hours ago

              Haaland being sure to score vs Spurs was always bullsh*t tbh.

                were you saying this last week?

                  • 8 Years
                  1 month, 19 hours ago

                  I've been thinking this ever since I sold him on WC weeks ago.

                  Barring a catastrophe, I'm not getting Haaland back until GW28 at the earliest.

        3. Hotdogs for Tea
          • 9 Years

          Haaland & Semenyo to Salah & Saka

      2. HelmutCool

        1 month, 21 hours ago

        Re-posting as west ham has gone under the radar for me:

        Any hammers fans lurking about?
        Havent seen enough of them playing lately: Am I being crazy of contemplating Bowen in after the Arsenal fixture? Kudus is back by then right?
        Good looking fixture-run. Paqueta still takes penalties when he is on?

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Don't bother.

          They are well out of sorts...

          Unless tonight indicates a turnaround for them.

          1. HelmutCool
            • 2 Years

            Certainly tuning into watch it.
            Luckily in Finland we get whole coverage for about 38€/month.
            (And splitting cost with m8 who watches mostly nhl)
            I heard it gets expensive in UK and atleast saturday-games not all available?

              • 3 Years
              1 month, 21 hours ago

              Damn never would have thought it'd be so cheap there. Nearly double that in Norway

              1. HelmutCool
                • 2 Years
                1 month, 21 hours ago

                Viaplay is screwing you over. Ok that price is 12months mandatory with 2 free months. Think its 45,90/month normally.

            2. x.jim.x
              • 10 Years
              1 month, 20 hours ago

              Obviously you can shop around and get better deals, but it's more or less:

              Sky Sports - £25pm (on top of basic £20pm Sky package)
              TNT Sports - £30pm (includes European fixtures, i.e. CL and Europa)
              Amazon Prime - £8.99pm (2 or 3 gameweeks only, around Xmas)

              So you're looking north of £80pm to watch most (not all) of the games. It's daylight robbery and I wonder if we're going to see a shake-up when the current broadcasting rights expire.

              1. Mainoo Magic
                • 10 Years
                1 month, 20 hours ago

                Yeah madness to think its that much per month and you can't even watch all the games for that! Especially when abroad you can get every game pretty much for a lot less.

              2. Funkyav
                • 15 Years
                1 month, 19 hours ago

                for anyone paying for a sky subscription on top of the sports, id advise you cancel your sky contract and get now tv for the sky sports games, saves a little bit at least.

                however rather than a shake up i expect another broadcaster to come into the game soon enough which will mean even more to pay out, we are royally ripped off over and over again in the UK to watch football.

                And the most annoying part of it is that if the Premier League set up their own streaming service they could launch this globally and the cost would come down for us signifigantly and profits up for them but they wont do that as they clearly love the deals which are awful for the consumer.

                dont even get me started on the fact we can only watch a fraction of the games despite them all being shown for free or next to nothing around the world.

                1. x.jim.x
                  • 10 Years
                  1 month, 19 hours ago

                  I think people underestimate how much effort and cost the Prem would need to eat to set up their own streaming service - there's not much incentive for them when the likes of Sky and TNT hand them a fortune for the broadcasting rights with no overheads whatsoever.

                  The latest deal is worth £6.7 BILLION for 4 years. To put that into perspective, at £10 per month they would need 14m subscribers to recoup that, before accounting for any of the running costs. A quick Google search shows there are only about 6m Sky Sports subscribers (and falling) at present, so there's only a limited amount of people willing to pay.

                  Bear in mind they're competing with the Firestick market, who get all the games (and more) for about £50 PER YEAR.

                      Nailed it. I've got a certain device with a certain app and I've not looked back since.

                  1 month, 18 hours ago

                  Simple economics of the 'free' market: The longer people keep paying these absurd ££ the more they are going to continue to fleece you. Same with concert tickets, perfume, watches etc.

            • 8 Years
            1 month, 20 hours ago

            I paid 15 euros a month for all internationals, Premier League, Europa League, Champions League, French and Spanish leagues and occasionally some random league until I moved country recently. Now it’s the same but 32 euros and I get the Saudi League (instead of random one).

        2. The Snowman
          • 14 Years
          1 month, 21 hours ago

          Hoping that City fixtures and Foden's return to being a decent asset combine soon.

        3. Leon B

          What’s everyone’s thoughts with Odegaard? Could he rival Saka for points now he’s back in the team?

          1. HelmutCool
            • 2 Years
            1 month, 21 hours ago

            Like him but corners and penalties sway it for saka. And getting both block second defense-spot.

          2. The Snowman
            • 14 Years
            1 month, 21 hours ago

            I think Havertz is the second best Arsenal attacker.

          3. Tonyawesome69
            • 6 Years
            1 month, 21 hours ago

            Good option but a tier below Saka.

            Ode v Havertz is an interesting discussion. I think both can score similar points. Good cheap forwards could allow folks to go Ode over Havertz

          4. Dutchy FPL
            • 1 Year
            1 month, 21 hours ago

            Don't think he can rival Saka for point tbh

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            1 month, 21 hours ago

            I like Odegaard, might by my Mbeumo replacement!!

          6. GreennRed
            • 13 Years
            1 month, 21 hours ago

            Don't think he can rival Saka but such a classy footballer. I don't think FPL points fully reflect his contributions in games.

          7. x.jim.x
            • 10 Years

            • 10 Years
            1 month, 18 hours ago

            I think you have to look at Odegaard independently more wholly rather than just comparing him to Saka. For his price and with those upcoming fixtures, I think there is short-term value there.

            1. The Snowman
              • 14 Years
              1 month, 18 hours ago

              I'm just assuming Foden remembers who he is soon and he becomes the 4th best midfield choice.

        4. Eightball

          Raya (Fabianski)
          Gabriel RAN Davis (Lewis Graves)
          Son Salah Mbuemo Palmer (Semenyo)
          Wissa Cunha Isak

          1 FT 0 ITB

          I really want to get Saka in this team but would require a -4.

          A) Son + Wissa ----> Saka + Joao Pedro (-4)
          B) Lewis -----> Colwill/Van Hecke
          C) Roll

          B or C seems like the sensible moves really but I reckon I will get priced out of A by next week as I only have a 0.1m buffer for those moves.

          1. HelmutCool
            • 2 Years
            1 month, 21 hours ago

            J.pedro certainly goes up, maybe even twice. Saka possible as well.
            Would concider pulling the switch.

              He already went up on Saturday.
              Same for Cunha.

              Fomo, would you get João Pedro for either on the others?

              If not, what would you improve across the squad with 1ft?

            Just roll the transfer. Nothing wrong with that team unless there are some injuries in the week

            Mbeumo to Mitoma maybe?

            Gvardiol to Gabriel is the obvious move.

            It was worth the original price not the inflated one since ownership changed.

            Most people binned it off in protest at the gambling sites rammed down our throats at every option, i’ve not missed it & defo not paying current rates

            I see expanding to include EFL is not going to plan.

              Considering the amount of time you spend here, every day, it's a bit funny to suggest it's not worth about 10.5p per day!

                I'm a first time subscriber this year. Can't complain about the price really its less than a coffee a month. Articles are good. Data I think there's too much of it, a bit info overload potentially, not sure they needed the statbomb stuff.

              Yes, I certainly stopped when it became a donation to a cash-making enterprise on here rather than a contribution to keep a fun community site controlled by passionate hobbyists running. I don't feel I am missing out on much by not being a member.

            I didn't mind when it was £10 then £15 for the year. I only bought it for the articles, the members tools looked class but couldn't never be bothered to actually use them! I prefer being an eye test and fixtures manager too much.

          Too many Cap options this week?

          Salah vs City at H

          Pedro vs Sou at H

          Cunha vs Bou at H

          Palmer/Jackson vs at H

          Saka vs WHam Away

          1. Bobby Digital
            • 7 Years

            I think it's good for the game. Going Palmer atm. myself.

              So much better for the game than boring autocap Haaland every week

            2. g40steve
              • 6 Years
              1 month, 19 hours ago

              Pedro, Cunha or Palmer/Jackson here

          2. David Parkinson
            • 2 Years
            1 month, 19 hours ago

            Let's add Mbeumo v LEI to that lot.

            1. g40steve
              • 6 Years
              1 month, 19 hours ago

              He’s out wide had 3-5 touches last game so he went for Saka

              1. Jimmy B
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 10 Years
                1 month, 19 hours ago

                Game state (red card) probably didn't see Mbeumo to best effect at the weekend? Leicester could be a different kettle of fish entirely although you could get new manager bounce. Chelsea could do some real damage against Villa's dodgy high line but then Palmer wasn't that involved at the weekend either.

        13. Si_Sinor
          • 3 Years
          1 month, 19 hours ago

          For GW13 I have Isak PAL (a), Solanke FUL (h) and Cunha BOU (h) would you transfer any of these out for J. Pedro? Or do you see it as a waste of 1 FT.

          1. David Parkinson
            • 2 Years
            1 month, 19 hours ago

            Arguably Solanke can make way.

        14. FDMS All Starz
          • 9 Years
          1 month, 19 hours ago

          Do we expect Igor Thiago to start next game or come from the bench again? How did he look last game?

          1. Bobby Digital
            • 7 Years
            1 month, 19 hours ago

            Expect Wissa to start at the weekend

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          1 month, 18 hours ago

          Have a frontline of Haaland, Solanke and Strand Larson (couldn't afford Cunha since my midfield includes Salah) and 1 FT

          A) Haaland to Jackson
          B) Haaland to Cunha
          C) Haaland to Joao Pedro
          D) Strand Larson to Joao Pedro

            i did haaland larsen to cunha pedro and will spend the money on getting palmer/saka

          Afternoon everyone.

          I’m on a wildcard this week so I’m wondering what’s the consensus on how to tackle the next phase of games in FPL.

          1). What’s your formation of choice (3 - 4 - 3 vs 3 - 5 - 2).
          2). Outside of this season’s new Holy Trinity (Salah - Saka - Palmer) which other mids are worthy of looking at for our squads? Maddison / Rashford / Garnacho / Gordan?
          3). Is there greater merit this season in playing 5 regular midfielders and having a non-playing 3rd striker or should we go 3 strikers and a cheap 5th mid?
          4). Any believers in Haaland still out there?

          1. rvp786
            • 13 Years
            1 month, 18 hours ago

            go 3-4-3 -- cunha pedro and someone like an isak

            1. John Colby (C)
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              1 month, 18 hours ago

              Yeah forwards have been excellent value this season to be fair.

              1. rvp786
                • 13 Years
                1 month, 18 hours ago

                all in form too -- isak jackson pedro cunha wissa wood

          2. Mother Farke
              1 month, 18 hours ago

              1) Considering the number of forwards in form, definitely 3-4-3
              2) It's not a very big pool of options, and even those you've mentioned have their drawbacks. For example, is Maddison even nailed? This is why my personal plan (as it stands] is to kkeep Mbeumo. At least he's a nailed set piece taker over Christmas.
              3) Refer to 1
              4) Haaland, in my view, needs to at least brace in every game to represent value for money. He's getting the xG, but that quite simply isn't cutting the mustard so to speak.

              1. John Colby (C)
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                1 month, 18 hours ago

                Interesting point about Mbuemo and he’s a 90 minute man too. His fixtures don’t look as bad as some are making out. I feel Maddison is nailed - the problem is that he’s involved in European matches while the likes of Jackson and Palmer aren’t. That’s why I also like Isak. I don’t know what to do with Haaland - as you say his underlying stats means he demands consideration but those misses are huge body blows each week while Salah captainers celebrate - again.

                1. rvp786
                  • 13 Years
                  1 month, 18 hours ago

                  sell haaland -- invest the cash in a cheaper striker whose in form and spend the cash on likes of salah/palmer/saka.

                  for example palmer and cunha combo will get you more points that a haaland/cheap mid and you will still have a few mill to spend elsewhere

                  1. John Colby (C)
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 13 Years
                    1 month, 18 hours ago

                    On paper that’s a wise move but all the leaders in the mini-leagues I’m in have Salah Saka Palmer in their squads. I need major differentials to claw back the leads they have. Haaland is the one big differential I have.

            • Bobby Digital
              • 7 Years
              1 month, 18 hours ago

              1) 343
              2) Mbeumo atm, but looking at KDB/Foden/Bowen/Gordon
              3) I prefer 343 with a fodder in midfield
              4) no

              1. John Colby (C)
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                1 month, 18 hours ago

                Cheers Bobby for those points.
                I just don’t think I can ever trust KDB again in this game. He’s been one of he greatest generational talents ever to grace the PL - but as an asset he’s on the wane. Mbeumo sellers I think will be punished. Man U assets hardly raised their hands in their audition yesterday.

                1. Bobby Digital
                  • 7 Years
                  1 month, 18 hours ago

                  Yeah I'm keeping Mbeumo for now, but I will probably ditch Wissa after this week.

            • Alnair
              • 8 Years
              1 month, 18 hours ago

              1) 3-4-3.
              2) Son's minutes should increase over Xmas and he's nailed to play every game. Jury is still out on Fernandes.
              3) Three strikers.
              4) Doubt it.

              1. John Colby (C)
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                1 month, 18 hours ago

                Would you recommend Son over Maddison then Alnair? Is he the Son of old?

                1. Alnair
                  • 8 Years
                  1 month, 18 hours ago

                  He doesn't need to be the Son of old. Spurs have the "best" attack and Son is the most nailed and talismatic player in the team. He's on pens and has good xA even when he doesn't score.

                  With that being said, he's only an option if you already have Salah, Palmer, and Saka.

            • David Parkinson
              • 2 Years
              1 month, 18 hours ago

              1 Got to be 3-4-3 with the plethora of value forwards atm.
              2 Have a look at Mbeumo & Rogers as a rotating 4th, you maybe surprised.
              3 See 2
              4 Yes, but not until form returns to him and City being good again.
