The gameweek
Press conferences and injury news roll in on European time, mostly while Australia sleeps. One read from us and you're across it.
Transfers in and out, captain picks and differentials, the low-owned players that separate you from the pack. Verdict first, one reason.
Everything lands before the gameweek deadline, on your timezone. Set your side, then enjoy the football.
Wildcards, Bench Boost and double gameweeks decide FPL seasons. We flag the windows early so you never burn a chip blind.
This week
FPL· GW1-3EPLhigh-confidence235FPL points last season, second only to Haaland among players in this season's game
Hull away first up is rated 2 for difficulty, and Fernandes has a goal and three assists in six career games against gameweek 3 opponents Everton. The armband is Bruno's for the opening month, except for one week. Will be a nice point of difference from the Haaland crowd
GameDay Squad· 2026/27 previewEPLhigh-confidence24.4points a game last season, rescored under 2026/27 rules
Key passes now pay 3, and Fernandes banked 137 extra points from that change alone, the biggest gain of any player. The next best midfield average is Szoboszlai's 16.
GameDay Squad· Round 1EPLstrong play14.1points a game for Semenyo last season, top six among forwards
Seven goals in 17 league games since the January move to City, and Round 1 brings Bournemouth to the Etihad. A reunion game plus a top-six forward average is an easy start.
FPL· GW1-3EPLhigh-confidence8goals for Haaland in five career games against Crystal Palace
Eight in five is a career-long pattern, not a hot streak, and the 239 points last season were the most of anyone in this season's game. Gameweek 2 is the one week Bruno Fernandes gives up the armband.
