Selecting a captain for the penultimate week of doubleheaders of the season could be a challenge as the pool of fully operational options has shrunk in recent days.
Mohamed Salah has troubled the FPL owners with two quiet performances of late, while Erling Haaland was completely absent from Manchester City’s impressive win over Brighton on Thursday night. So who should we consider for the armband?
With the help of Fantasy Football Hub’s powerful AI Points Predictions tool, here are the best captain picks for FPL Gameweek 35.
Son Heung-min
Son Heung-min leads the race for FPL Gameweek 35 captaincy and his great potential remains as he plays out of position as Tottenham’s central striker. Spurs go into this double rested, unlike their opponents who had a lot to do during the week.
Son has scored one goal and one assist in four appearances since the international break, which is somewhat inconsistent compared to his high standards with 24 goal involvements in 28 starts this season. He scored a brace in the second leg against Arsenal in Gameweek 6.
Cole Palmer
Chelsea talisman Cole Palmer showed he is only human when he missed the defeat to Arsenal in midweek due to illness. That means his prediction falls behind Son due to question marks in his minutes, with Mauricio Pochettino’s press conference being significant.
That being said, Palmer is still a formidable force in the game and remains on track to become the best performing fantasy player of the season, even if he doesn’t become a Chelsea regular until Gameweek 7. He has scored in double figures four times in his last five appearances.
Mohamed Salah
Liverpool have been in a disastrous period since the international break, dropping eight points in their last four league games, denting their ambitions of a second Premier League title in Jurgen Klopp’s final season. Nevertheless, the AI predictions stick to Mohamed Salah’s potential points tally this game week.
Salah has only scored two goals since the international break but his numbers remain sensational. During that time, he leads the league in shots made with 30 and is second in big chances with seven. In the second leg against West Ham he scored ten points.
