Fixture Difficulty of the candidate team in FPL GW35
In the Third Phase of the article, We use Drafthound’s odds for a Team scoring at least One goal in the Gameweek and the Odds of Scoring more than 2.5 goals in the Gameweek as a whole. You can check out the same as well for free on Drafthound along with fixture analysis, predicted analysis, and more.
KDB and Man City are once again dominating the odds tables with a game against Leeds means they have 93% odds of scoring a goal and 50% odds of scoring 2.5+ goals which is quite a big odds for a team playing only once. Liverpool are close behind with an 89% odds of scoring a goal and a 38% chance of 2.5+ goals. Spurs and Man United are close with Spurs finishing third and Man United finishing last.

Conclusion – Final Rank from our FPL Gameweek 35 Captaincy metric analysis
In the Fifth and Final Phase of the article, I have aggregated the Ranks derived above to pull out the Cumulative Rank Factor (CRF). The Candidate having the lowest Cumulative Rank Factor is the most ideal Captaincy Option according to this metric.
Although KDB came last for the player’s attack rank he eventually finished first for all the other ranks to end up with a CRF of 8. Kane is second with a CRF of 11, whereas Son and Salah are third with a CRF of 12. Ronaldo finishes last in spite of good individual numbers due to the poor form of Man United.
