Caveat : The Captaincy picks are in the below format -
Man. City return to league action having missed gameweek 27 as a result of their Carabao Cup commitments, and the Argentinian has the perfect opportunity to add to his total of seven goals in the last six gameweeks as they host a leaky West Ham defence. Over the aforementioned period, Agüero (nine) trails only Rashford (10) for shots on target (SoT), and only Barnes (15), Jiménez (16) and Rondón attempted more shots inside the box (SiB) than his 15. The Argentinian also tops the table for ‘big chances’ with eight. The champions have scored 18 goals in their last six league games, topping the table for SiB (66) and SoT (41). West Ham have conceded eight goals in their last four away matches, and no team has allowed opponents more shots than their 72. They are also third bottom for SiB conceded, with only Huddersfield (52) and Fulham (54) faring worse. Our Fix Algorithm backs the Argentinian to breach the Hammers defence, with a point score of 8.0.
Liverpool failed to score for only the third time this season as they drew 0-0 at Old Trafford in gameweek 27, and will be looking to get back to winning ways as they face the Hornets at Anfield. As the Custom Stats table shows, over the last six gameweeks, Mané has attempted 13 SiB, only Pogba (16) has attempted more amongst midfielders. He has also created six chances and scored four goals, and no midfielder has scored more over this period. Over their last six home matches, the Reds have scored 20 goals, more than any other team, and they also top the table for SiB with 74. In contrast, their opponents Watford have conceded 89 shots at goal in their last six matches the fourth-worst in the league, and have only kept two clean sheets in that period, conceding seven. Our Fix Algorithm backs Mané to get attacking returns with a projected point score of 5.3.
Rondón bagged his seventh goal of the season and features once again as our “Out there” pick this week, as he faces Burnley at St. James' Park. As the Custom Stats table shows, over the last six gameweeks only Rashford has attempted more shots than his 19, and his 18 SiB is highest amongst forwards over that period. He has also created nine chances, only Deeney (10) and King (11) have created more amongst forwards. Newcastle have scored nine goals in their last six games, and attempted 78 shots, of which 27 were SoT, seventh-highest in both metrics. They also hit the woodwork three times and only Fulham rattled the post with on more occasions (five). Their opponents Burnley have picked up some momentum but still have only one clean sheet in their last six games. They have allowed opponents 92 shots and only Fulham (93) have been more obliging. They are also fourth-bottom for SoT conceded (30). Our Fix Algorithm backs the Venezuelan to get attacking returns with a point score of 4.5.
