Upcoming Gameweek

AI preview

GW 8

Haaland is the armband pick again, with both panels backing him for the Aston Villa trip despite the ankle doubt. The sharper question is Brighton's tough start at Liverpool, which makes Groß and Vuskovic a patience buy rather than an immediate move. Mbeumo offers the cleaner forward option while Šeško is out, though Man Utd's form and managerial instability remain the caveat.

Fixtures to watch

  • Aston Villa v Man City Sat 11:30 · medium City's away trip tests Haaland's armband credentials ahead of kickoff.
  • Liverpool v Brighton Sun 14:00 · medium Tough Anfield test before Groß and Vuskovic's fixtures open up.
  • Man Utd v Bournemouth Sun 14:00 · medium Mbeumo's guaranteed minutes meet a shaky Man Utd run.

AI recap

GW 7

Brighton's 5-0 demolition of Crystal Palace was the gameweek's standout, putting Pascal Groß and Maxim De Cuyper in the spotlight after Groß's assist for De Cuyper. Haaland's City had to work harder, edging Ipswich 3-2 at home and keeping his form under scrutiny. Arsenal's 1-0 away win at Nott'm Forest kept Calafiori's attacking role firmly in view.

Results & talking points

  • Brighton v Crystal Palace 5-0 Brighton's emphatic 5-0 win showcased Groß and De Cuyper's attacking output.
  • Man City v Ipswich Town 3-2 City edged out Ipswich 3-2 at home, with Haaland's form again under the spotlight.
  • Nott'm Forest v Arsenal 0-1 Arsenal took a narrow 1-0 away win, keeping Calafiori's attacking role in focus.

Buy Morgan Rogers. Letstalkfpl prefers him to Gibbs-White, Mbeumo and Barclay, citing near-guaranteed minutes, no European distractions and kind fixtures. Planetfpl backs him as a reliable pick and a rebuy, pointing to two straight goal-scoring weeks.

Confidence 62%

Buy Palmer as a Saka replacement, backed by home-heavy Chelsea fixtures and penalty duties. Underlying numbers are only average and he isn't worth the price yet. Captaincy over Haaland is split, with one panel preferring to hold.
