GW33+ turned to be disastrous for managers who did not captain one of Man United attacking assets with other popular options including the likes of KDB, Mahrez, Salah all providing minimal or zero returns. But with just 18 hours left between the end of GW33+ and FPL GW34+ Deadline, it is important for managers to get their captain choices right. FPL GW 34+ offers some exciting fixtures and we will expect some of our star players to deliver. Check out the blog to know our 5 best Captain picks for FPL GW34+ who we predict are in for a big haul this week.
ALLABOUTFPL FPL GW 34+ Captain Poll:
Here’s our FPL GW 34+ Captain Picks
1. Kevin De Bruyne vs NEW(H), Price: 10.8 Mil, TSB:52.2%
Kevin De Bruyne has been one of the best FPL assets this season having consistently returned points throughout the season. The Belgian midfield maestro has registered 11 goals and 20 assists resulting in 215 points in FPL so far this season.
KDB is up against a Newcastle side who are unbeaten since the season restart. Having been benched by pep in the 1-0 loss to Southampton, KDB will be the first name on the man city team sheet and we expect Kevin to go be amongst the points.
KDB in numbers:
- 29 points in the three home games since the restart, averaging more than 9 PPG.
- Registered a goal and three bonus points in the reverse fixture in GW14.
- Since the season restart, KDB has registered 38 points through 3 goals and two assists.
- 15 shots on goal and 11 key passes in PL since the season restart.
Sterling could be a very good differential captain too against Newcastle in FPL GW 34+

2. Anthony Martial vs Aston Villa (A) Price: 8.3 Mil, TSB:18.8%
Manchester United have been in red hot form since the season restart and are currently the only team unbeaten since the restart. Martial has played a key role this season with the French attacker registering 20 attacking returns(15G+5A) already and is currently the fourth-highest scoring midfielder in FPL this season having registered 162 points so far. Martial is up against a relegation-threatened Villa side who had conceded the most goals in PL this season(62). We fully expect martial to be the chief destructor for Man Utd come Thursday night.
Martial in Numbers:
- Martial has registered 9 shots on goal and scored four goals since the season restart with a healthy xG of 0.60 per ninety since the restart.
- 40 points in the last 4 games registering 10 PPG.
- Man Utd have created the second most number of big chances in PL since the restart, only man city have registered more big chances since the restart.
Of course, Bruno Fernandes is an obvious captain choice for FPL GW 34+ we don’t have to tell you this!

3. Harry Kane vs Bournemouth (A) Price:10.9 Mil, TSB: 12.5%
Kane is up against a poor Bournemouth side who are yet to register a win since the restart and have conceded a whopping 12 goals in four games since the restart. Although Spurs have not been playing eye-catching football under Mourinho, the Bournemouth game in FPL GW34+ is too hard to ignore. We all know how deadly the spurs talisman can be on his day and his form is improving every GW since the restart.
Kane in Numbers:
- Kane has received the most number of big chances in PL since the restart.
- Kane has registered the highest Nonpenalty xG since the restart(2.48) and has scored two goals.
- Spurs are up against Bournemouth side who have conceded 59 goals this season, third-worst defense in PL.

4. Phil Foden vs Newcastle (H) Price: 5.4 Mil, TSB: 4.7%
Foden has been phenomenal for Man city and is quickly turning out to be a must own FPL asset this season. Pep Guardiola has been careful in managing the minutes of the city attack this meant that Foden missed out against Southampton having scored a goal and recording an assist against PL champions in GW32+. This means Foden is most likely to start against Newcastle in FPL GW 34+ and he is surely a very good captain option.
Phil Foden in numbers
- Foden has registered four goals and an assist in four appearances since the season restart registering a goal or assist every 45 mins
- Foden has returned double-digit hauls in every game he has started since the season restart, 16 points vs Burnley, 12 vs Liverpool.
- 4 key passes in the four games since the restart, an indicator that assists will also increase in the come GW’s

5. Christian Pulisic vs Crystal Palace, Price: 7.2 M, TSB: 9.2%
Chelsea’s Captain America has been great after the restart and has found back his form and has established himself a starter in the right-wing. Pulisic has been involved in 5 goals(2G+3A) since the restart. With an impressive xG/90 min of 0.5, he looks lethal and will look to exploit the defense Crystal Palace defense
Pulisic in numbers:
- Crystal Palace have conceded eight goals in the last three games and you can expect Pulisic to be surely amongst the goals against the Eagles who have got nothing to play for now
- Pulisic scored in the reverse fixture in GW12 registering 8 points
