Our series of articles on the best Free Hit squad for Blank Gameweek 31 concludes with a look at Fantasy Premier League forwards.

Using data that can be found in the Fantasy Football Scout Members’ Area, we have assessed which options are the most likely to find the back of the net, offer assists, or provide a combination of both.

Members can read on and take in our analysis, but those without membership can still enjoy Tuesday’s article on goalkeepers for free.

    Check out the insane productivity of Wilson & his best FPL buddy Fraser:

    Last 21 games starting together:

    - Kun & Sterling = 42 attacking returns
    - Fraser & Wilson = 36 attacking returns

    Newcastle minus Schär/Lascelles tomorrow *should* be profitable

      Thinking about tripling up, got king and brooks and tempted to do jimenez>Wilson for a hit. Bournemouth home to burnley in gw 33 is also a positive factor

        I don’t think it has really hit home for folks just how good Fraser/Wilson are for FPL - they are generating elite level returns for 12.0 of budget

            At least we know now that Wilson is the key ingredient for Fraser... even if they are 7.5/8.0 next season i’d Still get both as long as they are both fit

    Salah TC makes sense right? Top points scorer in FPL this season against the worst defence in the league in fulham

    Sure he's not in the best of form. But atleast he's getting chances. (most shots inside box for any player in last 4 away matches)

    People say HUD in gw36 is better but i dont think so. 4 days before semi 1st leg. even if salah plays there could be rotation elsewhere resulting in a 1 or 2 nil scoreline.

    Couple of quick questions

    1) worth still getting mane? Any update on his injury rumours?

    2) Which two from these do you think will score the most points in gw31/33:
    A) Robbo
    B) Fraser
    C) Maddison
    D) Lanzini
    E) Vardy
    F) Wilson
    G) Arnie

    Bearing in mind I already have King and getting two forwards mean I have to loose 0.2m on Jimenez.

    I am leaning towards Maddison and Wilson

    Still have all the chips left (including wildcard).
    I have 7 players this week with 1FT.

    Thinking:
    - -4/-8 this week
    - FH32
    - WC33/34

    When would the wildcard be best to use?

    Anyone on 10 players taking a hit?

    Will have a ft in GW33 to get 11 out so only really 1 game profit. Although nice to have extra in case on injury/benching as GW33 is a long way away

      I have 6 players and taking a -12 to get 11.

      Every hit is basically a -2 this week as long as you get in players that are expected to play 60+ mins.
