In the second part of our Double Gameweek 29 blogs, Leeds and Bournemouth assets are put under the microscope.

Ayling tops the Stats Sandbox for xFPL (26.18) despite just 18 FPL points over the last six gameweeks. The left-back has posted great attacking numbers, he is top amongst Leeds players for 'Expected Goals' (xG) (1.08) with only Bamford (10) taking more shots than his eight. Harrison tops the table for FPL points (33), he has scored two goals from eight shots and has also attempted nine assists, the most of any Leeds player. Rodrigo has been building fitness since his injury, he scored off the bench in their last encounter and remains Leeds' top scorer by some distance with 11 goals. Billing has also found the back of the net twice over the last six gameweeks and he has done so from just six shots but is still second in the table for xG (1.24) behind Solanke (1.31). Solanke tops the comparison for shots (16) by some distance but has not scored over the aforementioned period, he has registered two assists and his five shots on target (SoT) indicate that he could find the back of the net soon. Ouattara has caught the eye in recent appearances and is third for xFPL (23.35). His numbers are compared to some of the other options in the Fix Comparison Matrix image below.

Ouattara 's total of six shots is the joint-lowest in the comparison but it is encouraging to note that the 21-year-old has been afforded two 'big-chances' which is joint-top alongside Billing. Harrison looks a great pick with eight shots and nine attempted assists showing his many routes to points. Solanke has the best underlying numbers and arguably the highest ceiling with penalty duties also in his locker. Bamford's minutes could be under threat from Rodrigo and the Spaniard also deserves consideration despite not making the comparison due to lack of recent minutes.

Bournemouth are top of our Fixture Analyser for the next four gameweeks with matchups against Fulham, Brighton, Leicester and West Ham particularly appealing. The Cherries also have a confirmed fixture in Blank gameweek 32 which adds to their appeal. Leeds are ranked fifth, they have favourable games against Forest, Palace and Fulham with the games against Arsenal and Liverpool thrown in. The trip to the Emirates in particular looks like a challenge with the Gunners' current form but the game against Liverpool at Elland Road could still provide points for Leeds' attackers. The Yorkshire side also have a confirmed fixture in Blank Gameweek 32.
On the basis of this analysis, Billing, Ouattara and Solanke all look like good picks from Bournemouth while Harrison and Rodrigo are the players to own from Leeds.
