In this piece, we break down our final team reveals, highlighting the key players and strategies to help you finish the season on a high.

Notes 

  • Navigating the final round of the season is going to be tricky. Many of the viable DGW and TGW players are on yellow card watch and/or international duty.
  • LAFC play Toronto on Wednesday evening, so for now I’m mainly concentrating on those players for MLS Fantasy Round 31.
  • Denis Bouanga and Son Heung-min are very likely to miss two of LAFC’s three games this week. So, I’ve tripled up on their defensive assets instead, with Hugo Lloris, Sergi Palencia and Ryan Porteous all making my team. It goes without saying that one of those players – likely Palencia or Porteous – will drop out should Bouanga or Son be available for tomorrow evening’s game. However, that seems unlikely at the time of writing.
  • My fallback ‘keeper is Matt Freese, although I don’t expect to call upon him, given Lloris should rack up six points from appearances alone.
  • My remaining defenders are Jordi Alba, Justin Haak and Alex Roldán. Playing Alba is a calculated risk given he’s one yellow card from suspension, but a necessary one given the rest of my bench is in the same position.
  • Thomas Müller and Martín Ojeda are the standout picks in midfield and are among the few locks in my team. 
  • Captaincy will go to one of them in Bouanga/Son’s anticipated absence, with Ojeda currently getting the nod.
  • The rest of my midfield spots are up for grabs. Hany Mukhtar is my preferred SGW fallback, with Sebastian Berhalter and Đorđe Mihailović the favourites for the other two spots by virtue of their points floor (and ceiling). 
  • Upfront, Petar Musa and Luis Suárez are the best of the limited DGW options, with Golden Boot contender Sam Surridge my SGW fallback.

Notes

  • It’s quite the minefield this week with suspensions, international duty and some teams with nothing to play for.
  • The big guns are gone for Miami and LAFC, so I have to look elsewhere for potential doublers.
  • My structure now is five at the back, with two scrubs for the best two out of three bench. But, I can change that up with CLT not playing until next weekend.
  • Watch for line-ups closely and make adjustments.
  • I have gone with heavy Vancouver and Seattle to start. 
  • It’s the final round, good luck until next season!
