Caveat : The Captaincy picks are in the below format -

• Number one pick predicted as per the Fix Algorithm
• Differential pick (Under 25% ownership)
• Out there pick (Under 15% ownership)

Harry Kane (CAR)

With three goals in his last two games, Harry Kane is the highest projected scorer this week as per the Fix Algorithm, with a whopping point score of 9.5. It is easy to see why with Kane once again posting the numbers that have seen him become a mainstay of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) squads over the past few years. Over the last four gameweeks, only Agüero (18) has taken more shots in the box (SiB) than Kane’s 12, and no forward has landed more shots on target (SoT) than Kane’s eight. Kane’s form has also helped Spurs recover from two consecutive losses in gameweek four and five, with wins against Brighton and Huddersfield. In fact, over the last two weeks only Man. City (18) and Wolves (14) have notched more SoT than Spurs’ 13. Their opponents Cardiff are struggling to adapt to life in the Premier League losing their last four games. With a goal difference of minus 12 the Bluebirds are actually struggling at both ends of the pitch. Only Fulham, Burnley and West Ham have allowed their opponents more SoT than Cardiff and they are joint-first for goals conceded alongside Huddersfield and Fulham. With many FPL managers still holding heavy hitters such as Salah, Hazard and Agüero over the Englishman, this fixture represents an ideal opportunity for owners to take advantage and surge up the rankings.

Jamie Vardy

Vardy returned to the Leicester side in gameweek five after serving out his suspension for his red card vs. Wolves in gameweek two and has been posting impressive numbers since. Over the last three weeks the pacy forward has taken 12 shots which is behind Mitrovic (13) and Agüero (18). Six of these were SoT which is second only to Kane (8). He has two goals and an assist since his return and probably would have had three goals had he not been substituted prior to Leicester's penalty in gameweek five. His importance to the Leicester attack cannot be overstated, since his return Leicester rank second for SoT (20), and only Man. City have managed more (27). His opponent Everton kept their first clean sheet of the season in gameweek seven but conceded 11 goals in the prior six gameweeks. However, their defensive stats on paper appear to be decent, with only 28 SoT conceded fewer than ‘top six’ sides such as Man. United (30) and Tottenham (32), but, with Silva’s sides often adopting a a high defensive line Vardy should find plenty of space to exploit behind the centre-backs. Our Fix Algorithm predicts a point score of 6.5 for the English striker.

Alexandre Lacazette (ful)

Arsenal travel to Fulham on the back of five wins in their last five games, helped largely by the irresistible form of their French striker, Lacazette. With two goals and three assists in his last four matches he has established himself as the spearhead of the Arsenal attack over his pricier team-mate, Aubameyang. During that period, the Frenchman has taken 13 shots which only Agüero, Mitrovic and Jiménez have toppled. The Gunners are also displaying strong attacking form with 39 SoT so far, the fourth  highest in the league, behind Man. City, Liverpool and Chelsea. The Frenchman will be relishing the opportunity to go up against the porous Fulham defence given that no side have allowed the opposition more SoT than Fulham's 49. The Cottagers have also conceded the most 'big chances' with 24, well ahead of second-placed West Ham's 18. At only 7.2% ownership Lacazette represents an explosive differential, and our Fix Algorithm predicts a point score of 4.4 for the Frenchman.
