Best FPL Strikers GW37 Premier League 2025-26

Looking for the best strikers to strengthen your Fantasy Premier League squad this week (Gameweek 37)? We’ve got you covered with a breakdown of the top forward options for this crucial stage of the season. As the campaign nears its conclusion, selecting the right attackers becomes even more important, especially with every point carrying added value. This guide focuses on strikers with strong recent form, promising fixtures, and the attacking qualities needed to deliver big returns in Gameweek 37.


From premium goal scorers capable of explosive hauls to budget-friendly forwards offering excellent value, this week’s shortlist includes options suited to a variety of squad structures and strategies. Each player highlighted has the potential to make a decisive impact through goals, assists, and bonus-point contributions.


Take a look at our top striker picks for Gameweek 37 below and identify the forward who could fire your FPL team toward a strong finish this week.

Best FPL Strikers in Gameweek 37 (GW37)

Viktor Gyökeres (Arsenal, £9.0m)

Viktor Gyökeres was one of the goalscorers when Arsenal faced Burnley previously in November, that too at a time when the Swedish striker was struggling at the club. Fast forward to the present, he's in great form right now, and is undoubtedly one of best FPL strikers to pick this week. The game being at the Emirates is also another boost for Gyökeres.


Erling Haaland (Bournemouth, £14.7m)

Bournemouth away will be a tough fixture for Manchester City, especially with the Cherries being on an impressive undefeated streak. However, Erling Haaland is a player who can score against any opposition on his day, and a tough fixture shouldn't rule him out from your FPL team. There's a reason he's the League's leading goalscorer.


Thiago (Brentford, £7.3m)

Thiago has only scored once in his last 4 Premier League games. However, we cannot deny the fact that he's scored 22 goals this season in a Brentford side, which is simply remarkable. The Bees will also face Oliver Glasner's Crystal Palace at home in Gameweek 37, who have been terrible in the league. Thus, Thiago might be a gamble worth taking.


Beto (Everton, £5.0m)

Beto has been in sensational form for Everton recently, and is our undisputed pick as best budget forward in FPL for this week. He's scored 5 goals in his last 5 Premier League appearances, which is simply remarkable. Sunderland at home is a decent fixture, and Beto in his current form is an excellent player to have either in your starting eleven or even as a bench boost if the chip is available.


Danny Welbeck (Brighton, £6.4m)

Leeds are now mathematically safe in the Premier League, which is a boost for Brighton as they'll need to win against them this weekend for their European hopes. Welbeck has been one of their best players this season, having scored 13 Premier goals at the age of 35. Considering how vulnerable the Leeds defense is, having Welbeck in your FPL team might be a risk worth taking.


Conclusion

To wrap things up, choosing the right striker in Gameweek 37 could play a major role in shaping your Fantasy Premier League success during the final stretch of the season. With several forwards carrying momentum and entering favorable matchups, the options featured above offer significant potential for attacking returns and valuable points.


That said, it remains important to consider your overall squad structure, available budget, and long-term planning before making transfers. Balancing reliable premium assets with effective value picks can often provide the flexibility needed to maximize points across the closing weeks.


Ultimately, backing a striker with strong form, secure minutes, and promising fixtures could be the difference-maker in Gameweek 37. Make the right decision, and this could be the week that gives your rank a major boost before the season concludes.
