Captain Palmer or Joao Pedro? FPL team of the week
"The best FPL captain this week comes from Chelsea as they face a Burnley side that has conceded a league-high 32 goals away from home. That is nearly three goals per game - so who do you choose out of Cole Palmer and Joao Pedro? The pair have scored 43 and 48 FPL points in the past five gameweeks respectively, the two form players in that period."
"It means no place for Erling Haaland this week - the re-emergence of expensive midfielders such as Palmer means tough choices. Let's hope that doesn't backfire although the Norwegian might be an injury doubt this week. The team of the week is selected based on current FPL prices to fit within a 100m budget, as if you were playing a Free Hit."
Cole Palmer is selected as captain because Chelsea face Burnley, who have conceded 32 away goals, nearly three per game, and Palmer offers penalty potential. Cole Palmer and Joao Pedro have produced 43 and 48 FPL points respectively across the last five gameweeks, marking them as the current form players. Erling Haaland is omitted from the starting pick amid the rise of expensive midfielders and possible injury concerns. The team of the week is assembled within a 100m budget as if using a Free Hit. Arsenal's defensive double-up failed, while Emiliano Martinez and Daniel Munoz are chosen based on fixtures and recent defensive records.
