Best FPL captain this week - GW21 (Gameweek 21)
Erling Haaland (Manchester City, £15.1m)
Brighton are a club who play an exciting attacking style of football. The only drawback with that thought is that they end up conceding a lot of goals. This is the reason why we have picked Erling Haaland as one of the best FPL captains for this week, as it looks to be the perfect game for him to end his goal drought and have his name back among the goalscorers list. Additionally, the game is also at home, which makes him an even more attractive pick.
Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa, £8.7m)
Ollie Watkins has made a spectacular comeback after a frustrating start to his Premier League season. He is in excellent form at the moment, and has even scored against top clubs such as Chelsea and Arsenal recently. Unai Emery's side will be facing Oliver Glasner's Crystal Palace next, who have been struggling a lot recently. Thus, this looks to be a perfect game for Watkins to score huge FPL points in Gameweek 21.
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal, £10.2m)
Arne Slot's Liverpool side have been absolutely underwhelming from a performance perspective for the past month or 2. Thus, the fact the Reds have been unbeaten for a long time doesn't mean much, and we also expect their streak to end against an Arsenal side that has been simply Phenomenal. Liverpool's defense is shockingly poor right now, and Bukayo Saka could cause nightmares to them with his pace, trickery, and excellent crossing. He is undoubtedly one of the best FPL captains for this week.
Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle, £7.1m)
Bruno Guimarães might sound like a strange name to include in our best FPL captains for this week list, but a look at his stats will make you think otherwise. The Brazilian has been directly involved in 8 Premier League goals despite playing in central midfield, and Newcastle will be facing Leeds at home next. Leeds are a side that always concede a lot of goals, and this makes Guimarães a really attractive captaincy pick.
Jack Grealish (Everton, £6.5m)
Jack Grealish is our best differential FPL captain pick for this week. It is a very rare instance in football where a player delivers a star performance despite being on the losing side, and that's what Grealish did against Brentford. He was directly involved in both the goals scored by Everton in their 2-4 loss against Brentford. Everton face Wolves at home next, who are last in the league table. If there's ever a game you'd want to captain Grealish in your FPL, it has to be this.
Those were our pick of Best FPL captains for this week (GW21) in the Premier League. The captaincy is one of the most important factors that'll play a huge role in your final Fantasy Premier League rankings, so choose wisely. That's it from us for now, we will be seeing you soon with our next picks of Best FPL captains for Gameweek 22. See you soon!
