Use a Free Hit to assemble a 100m squad prioritizing fixtures, reliable defenders, and form attackers for gameweek three. Previous Free Hit scored 48 after captain Erling Haaland blanked and Cole Palmer did not play. Choosing Joao Pedro over Jean-Philippe Mateta would have yielded higher returns. Robert Sanchez (5m) is a strong goalkeeper pick with Chelsea hosting Fulham, who failed to score in six of seven recent Stamford Bridge visits. Marc Cucurella (6.1m) offers attacking returns and clean-sheet potential. Nikola Milenkovic (5.5m) provides dependable defensive points, returning 145 points in 2024-25.
Is it time to move on from Cole Palmer? How do you replace Bukayo Saka? And the age-old question... Erling Haaland or Mohamed Salah? There's plenty to ponder for Fantasy Premier League players before gameweek three, but don't fear - our Free Hit team is a fountain of inspiration. It's my final week filling in for regular BBC Sport FPL expert Thomas Woods and, after crunching the numbers, I'm confident this side will help me sign off on a high.
It was so good on paper but a blank from captain Erling Haaland - and Cole Palmer not even playing - gave the Free Hit team 48 points. Last week I mentioned it was a 50-50 call between Jean-Philippe Mateta and Joao Pedro. I chose Mateta, who came back with two points. Pedro, who scored one and assisted two, would've got 15. Never change Fantasy Premier League, never change.
