Projections Rank of our FPL Gameweek 28 Captain Picks

Projections Rank of our FPL Gameweek 28 Captain Picks

In the Fourth Phase of the article, We have used the Anytime Returns and Projected Points Tools available at Fantasy Football Hub.

Once again the projections are in favor of the Chelsea boys due to their easy double gameweek fixtures. Raphinha is ahead of Countinho in the projections which is quite interesting!

Conclusion – Final Rank from our FPL Gameweek 28 Captaincy metric analysis

It’s a three-way tie at the top of our metrics with Coutinho, Rudiger, and Mount all topping it, something that has never happened before. Interestingly Salah comes behind the double gameweek gang!

Author’s note:

We would prefer Rudiger as the best option amongst the trio simply based on the fact that Rudiger is rotation free, has two good games. Mount whereas is slightly a rotation risk with Chelsea having all attackers available. Coutinho meanwhile doesn’t have great individual numbers and owning him should be enough in our opinion.

Unfortunately, we cannot run all the options on the poll into our metrics. But we are hopeful of a solution in the near future, stay tuned!
