The number is average fixture difficulty over the gameweeks shown, where lower is better— 1 is the kindest fixture we rate, 5 the hardest. Worth deciding before you pick a player, since that is usually the order the decision happens in.

Differentials

Projected to score well, owned by under 8% — the range where a player still moves your rank rather than just your points.

Final Gameweek 1 Checks

1. Confirm your XI is starting. A transfer is worth nothing if he begins on the bench, and team news moves late. Check the predicted lineups in the hours before the deadline, not the day before.
2. Set your bench order.It matters more than most managers act like it does — an autosub only comes on if the player above him also blanked.
3. Check your captain has a fixture. Obvious, and still the most common way to throw away a gameweek.
4. Decide whether to bank the transfer. A move made to use a free transfer rather than to improve the side usually costs more than it gains.
