The vast majority of Free Hit teams in Blank Gameweek 29 are going to include Ollie Watkins (£9.0m) and Ivan Toney (£8.2m) for obvious reasons.
However, for those Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers opting to play a 3-4-3/4-3-3 formation, who is the best third forward?
Here, we take a look at the top options to consider.
GOAL THREAT – LAST SIX MATCHES
| Name | Mins | Goals | Shots per90 | Shots in the box per90 | xG per90 | FPL goal involvement |
| Awoniyi | 326 | 1 | 1.93 | 1.38 | 0.24 | 40% |
| Fofana | 482 | 3 | 2.05 | 1.68 | 0.43 | 60% |
| Morris | 534 | 3 | 2.36 | 2.02 | 0.48 | 33% |
| Muniz | 500 | 5 | 4.86 | 4.32 | 0.51 | 54% |
| Wissa | 381 | 3 | 2.36 | 1.42 | 0.42 | 50% |
| Wood | 495 | 5 | 2.18 | 1.82 | 0.58 | 67% |
Of the forwards listed here, Fulham’s Rodrigo Muniz (£4.5m) has easily had the most shots and efforts in the box in his last six matches.
In fact, the latter total (24) was more than any other player in FPL over that period, including Erling Haaland (£14.4m).

Carlton Morris’ (£5.2m) is the ‘best of the rest’ for shots in the box per 90 minutes, meanwhile.
Now being deployed as Luton Town’s central striker, the penalty-taker has found the net three times in his last six.
Elsewhere, David Datro Fofana (£5.0m) is starting to make his mark at Burnley. When on the pitch, 60% of the Clarets’ goals have involved the on-loan Chelsea man, although that figure is trumped by Nottingham Forest’s Chris Wood (£5.2m, 67%), who formed a key part of Nuno Espirito Santo’s tactical approach pre-injury.
