FPL tips this weekend - Gameweek 31 (GW31)
Everton players are high-risk high-reward FPL picks for this weekend
This Premier League weekend might be a rare case where Everton are actually the favorites when they take on Chelsea. Liam Rosenior's side are in disastrous form right now, while Everton have been doing decently recently. The game also takes place at Everton's home, and picking their players in FPL this Gameweek might be a gamble worth taking.
This might be the best week to use free-hit due to the absence of Arsenal and Manchester City players
Arsenal players are one of the most popular in Fantasy Premier League, especially their defenders. When it comes to Manchester City, no other striker is more popular than Erling Haaland in the game. With players of both these teams absent this weekend due to the Carabao Cup final, this might be one of the best Gameweeks to utilise your bonus chips such as free-hit, wild-card , or even bench boost.
Bruno Fernandes might be the undisputed FPL captain for this week
As mentioned above, there will be no Arsenal and City players available for the weekend. This also has a direct effect in regards to choosing the most attractive FPL captain for the week. We feel Bruno Fernandes is the best pick by a mile compared to everyone else. His outstanding form, decent fixture, and lack of other attractive options make him our top pick.
There is a chance that defenders might underperform this Gameweek
If you look at the fixtures for Gameweek 31, a lot of them are quite difficult games which might involve goals from both clubs. This would mean less points for defenders than usual, unless they provide some attacking returns. Thus, our suggestion would be to go for a back 3 formation this week in your FPL and focus more on midfield/attack.
Manchester United players look like the best option
If you're looking for a double or triple-up Manchester United will face Bournemouth this weekend, and their players will also be fully fit due to them not being in Europe. Thus, the United players are looking like really attractive picks for this weekend due a combination of favourable circumstances and their great form at the moment. A Man Utd double or triple-up might be a risk worth taking.
In conclusion, Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 31 offers plenty of opportunities for managers to maximize points and climb up the overall rankings. With key fixtures on the horizon, smart transfer moves, effective captaincy picks, and well-balanced lineup decisions can have a major impact on your performance this week. Our FPL Gameweek 31 tips are designed to help you make informed choices ahead of the deadline. Make sure to assess your squad thoroughly and keep up with the latest updates as you gear up for another highly competitive Gameweek.
