Where FPL teams concede the most chances from – Part 2

We have used the latest international break to identify trends in the opening 12 Gameweeks of the 2018/19 season.

This aim of this study, which we began last week, has been to assess where each FPL team is most susceptible when it comes to conceding goals.

Using data available in the Members Area, we have looked at chances conceded from set pieces, through the middle and down the left or right flank.

With the relevant areas pinpointed for the first 10 teams, this second part then compares the other 10 sides’ vulnerabilities with their upcoming schedule to find out which players stand to benefit.

Across the articles in this series the hope is the build a picture of which FPL assets have the most favourable match-ups with specific team weakness over the next six Gameweeks.

    Well, with Ings now ruled out, I'm left with this choice:
    Who do I play?

    A) Arnie
    B) Bennett
    C) TAA

      Same question mate, I'm sure to start TAA this weekend though.

        Would be happy to play all three. Almost makes it tempting to use bench boost but obviously DGW's are better for that.

        Leaning towards Bennett because of the likelihood of clean sheet but tough to bench a striker and a Liverpool defender.

    A) Arnie (have laporte)
    Or

    Annoying thing now is a lot less people will bench Arnie

    1. St. Joseph
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Why?

  6. TaiwanHC

    Start Arnie or Maddison?

    Anyone getting rid of AWB? As nice as its been to have a 4.0 starter, there are now better value options cooing up all over the place in defence.

    With Alonso, Robbo, Laporte, Trippier looking good in the premium slots, and Doherty, Digne, TAA, Balbuena, Dunk, Duffy etc looking set for big things for not much more €€ than AWB, can we really afford to give a precious defence slot to him over Christmas?

    I'm (reluctantly) preparing to say goodbye I think.

      Sold for balbuena after gw10, no regrets

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 5 months ago

        I think that move makes sense, unless AWB goes on a scoring spree... Balbuena is kind of expected to perform very well over the next 5-10 GW's

      Don't forget vinaigrette
