You’ve probably heard about Joe’s much-liked ‘Goals Imminent’ table. You might listen to his and Marc’s Fantasy Football Scout podcast of the same name. Now, Goals Imminent is here in article form!

Heading towards Gameweek 12 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL), these Members Area statistics identify some underachieving players who look ‘due’ for a goal and/or assist.

Naturally, we’ll attempt to assess whether they’re unlucky, suffering a rare blip, or just aren’t particularly good.


LAST WEEK’S SUCCESSES

FPL notes: Saka hauls + Sunderland the real deal 3

While expected goal scorers Bruno Fernandes (£8.9m) and Dango Ouattara (£6.0m) did ok by setting up a goal for others, the main success came during Arsenal’s trip to Sunderland.

Gunners duo Bukayo Saka (£10.1m) and Leandro Trossard (£6.9m) were part of last week’s table, and both netted on Wearside.

Two of the 10 didn’t start: Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.5m) and Tijjani Reijnders (£5.5m).

As for predicted assists, Michael Kayode‘s (£4.5m) long throw caused Brentford’s equaliser, and Jeremy Doku (£6.4m) went one better by sealing Manchester City’s victory.

      This method is flawed and a fraud.

      Flawed? Taking raw data, smoothing and manipulating it and then applying it to unpredictable human behaviour is a fanciful notion. You use these sort of process for predictable, reliable and consistent machines.

      Fraud? Always good to see you patting yourself on the back for the ones you got right, but what about all the ones you didn't? And who scored that wasn't even on your table? The failures in your statistical approach never get mentioned.

        More importantly used for inconsistently performing machines to strive to find why they're not consistent and make them so. Machines that don't underperformed because of apparent fixture difficulties. One could compare 20 PL teams with 20 machines and the players are vital components.

        What do you guys think about Gravenberch, is it a good decision to bring him in this week?
