Best FPL captain this week - (Gameweek 30)

Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United, £10.1m)

Bruno Fernandes is having one of those legendary individual seasons for a central midfielder in the Premier League right now. Manchester United's Portuguese captain has been directly involved in 21 goals this season in 26 games. United will face a struggling Aston villa side as well this week, which makes Bruno a really attractive Fantasy Premier League captain pick for this week.


Erling Haaland (Manchester City, £14.6m)

Manchester City will face West Ham this weekend, who are currently in a relegation battle, and hence we have gone with Erling Haaland as one of the best FPL captains for this week. The Hammers defense has been really poor this season, and that means Haaland would probably have lots of chances to score in this game. He's undoubtedly a really attractive pick for Gameweek 30.


Hugo Ekiteke (Liverpool, £9.1m)

Tottenham Hotspur are currently the worst team in the Premier League. Their defense is especially shockingly poor, which was evident after their 5-2 loss after Atlético Madrid in the Champions League this week. This makes Hugo Ekiteke one of the best FPL captain picks for this week, as his outstanding runs and clever finishing could see him score a goal or 2 in this game.


Thiago (Brentford, £7.2m)

Thiago is just 4 goals behind Erling Haaland as it stands, and Brentford will be facing Wolves this weekend as well at home. Thus, it is the perfect fixture for the Brazilian striker to reduce the gap between him and Haaland, as Wolves have been disastrous this season. Although they've improved a lot recently, Thiago and his teammates should have an easy win here. Don't be surprised if he ends the game with a brace or hat-trick.


Antoine Semenyo (Manchester City, £8.3m)

If you don't want to go with Erling Haaland as your FPL captain this week but still want to captain a City player due to the attractive fixture, then Antoine Semenyo is the perfect Fantasy Premier League captain for you this week. The former Bournemouth winger has been brilliant since joining Pep Guardiola's side, and his devastating combination of pace and trickery is sure to cause huge issues for the West Ham defense.


Choosing the right FPL captain for Gameweek 30 can make a huge difference to your overall points tally. With several strong options available, selecting a player with great form and a favourable fixture is key to maximising returns. The captain picks listed above stand out due to their high potential for delivering big Fantasy Premier League points this week. Consider your team strategy carefully and choose wisely, as the right Gameweek 30 captain could give you a major advantage when it comes to your overall ranking after the Gameweek is over.
