Ahead of Friday’s deadline, we have chosen our best Fantasy Premier League (FPL) players for Gameweek 37.

We considered the Scout Squad submissions from Neale, Tom F, Sam and Marc before coming up with our final Scout Picks.

As ever, there are certain restrictions:

  • An £83.0m budget for our starting XI
  • An overall squad limit of £100.0m
  • No more than three players per team

GAMEWEEK 37 SCOUT PICKS

FPL Gameweek 37 Scout Picks: Arsenal triple-up against Burnley 4

GOALKEEPER

FPL pre-season: Kelleher + Schade injury updates, Henry starts

In Crystal Palace’s last three away matches, the Eagles have failed to score in two of them, with Europe very much the focus for Oliver Glasner’s men.

Brentford, meanwhile, have been in decent defensive form of late, with four clean sheets since the start of March, the joint-second most of any team.

Caoimhin Kelleher (£4.8m) duly gets the nod between the sticks.

DEFENDERS

FPL notes: Saliba injury, Arsenal's defence

Arsenal are on home turf in Gameweek 37, which is good news based on their form at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners have banked clean sheets in six of their last eight home matches across all competitions.

Consequently, Gabriel Magalhaes (£7.3m) will be confident of further defensive returns as relegated Burnley roll up to north London on Monday evening. The Brazilian is the most likely to trouble the opposition at set plays, too.

Michael Keane (£4.5m) is our chosen representative from the Everton defence in Gameweek 37.

The Toffees have kept a clean sheet in two of their last four home matches, but even if the shut-out fails, Keane can compensate with defensive contribution (DefCon) points, possibly even a goal.

With a 47.1% DefCon success rate at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, Keane has also netted three times in 2025/26.

Calvin Bassey (£4.4m) gets into the Scout Picks with a chance of returns at both ends of the pitch.

Wolverhampton Wanderers have scored just once in five Gameweeks. In that time, they’ve conceded six goals from set plays, by far the most of any team, which should interest Bassey.

      welbeck2thiago?

      1. Karan_G14
        • 10 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        I like Welbeck’s next 2 games as a differential.
        Thiago hasn’t score a goal since GW24.

    1. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Need some Wilson quotes from Silva.

      If only Scout had a man in the press conference room, we could guarantee it.

      1. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Press conferences don't take place in the basements, virgin.

    2. Skonto Rigga
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Pep now at 2pm!

  6. DagheMunegu
    • 5 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    A Saka
    B Gyokeres

    Bench one

    1 Gross
    2 DCL
    3 Welbeck

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      B1

  7. Miguel Sanchez
    • 9 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Morning all, bench one:

    A) Joao Pedro (TOT)
    B) Eze (BUR)
    C) Semenyo (bou)
    D) Wilson (wol)

    1. jthmt
      • 3 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      C) if we can assume semenyo will be back to wider position

      but maybe bench eze? as crazy it sounds

    2. Robson-Canoe
      • 10 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      That's tough, probably Wilson for me despite the amazing fixture.

  8. The_FF_King
    • 13 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    2FT

    DCL & Pedro
    to
    Thiago & Gyokeres

    Yay or nay?

  9. simong1
    • 7 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    12 point lead in my ML. My rival has Watkins up front but feel like he will change him to Gyokeres. Worth a hit with A to match his move? A or B?

    A) Welbeck and MGW > Gyokeres and KDH (-4)
    B) MGW to Trossard?

    1. jthmt
      • 3 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      play your own game, in the end you can't predict his moves but at least don't take a hit (-4)

  10. Do I Not Like Orange
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Start Watkins (LIV) or Wilson (wol)?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Wilson - Villa surely rest legs for the final

    2. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Wilson

    3. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Wilson

  11. McSwegan
    • 12 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    To get in Thiago I can ship either

    A) DCL
    B) JP

    I will most likely play three Brighton this GW.

    Save for the risk of a benching GW37 does keeping hold of JP make more sense?

    1. The Philosopher
      • 5 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      JP has a good fixture this week. I'd keep.

      1. McSwegan
        • 12 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Thanks. I will keep persuading myself that Gyok is a minutes risk...

    2. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years

      A

  16. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    I'm chasing big time, thoughts on the points below?

    1. Play Senesi and bench NOR?
    City playing Bou three days after the final, NOR recently played in def instead of mid delivering less points, not sure they keep CS either and NOR is not good for DC.

    2. (c) Gyo over Saka and Bruno?
    As simple as (c) striker vs relegated side.

    3. KDH vs BrunoG?
    Can't really decide, probably WH away form is worse than Sun, just then maybe KDH more involved than BrunoG...

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      No
      Yes
      Bruno

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Nor
      Saka
      JDG
      Gl

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Kdh lol

    3. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Thanks guys, still surprised by that love for NOR considering his recent performances.

    4. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      No
      Saka
      KDH

  17. EL tridente
    • 8 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Trossard or Rice?

    1. Ha.

      1 month, 16 days ago

      Rice

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Trossard for sure

    3. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Trossard

    2. Verbruggen > Raya, DCL > Kroupi (bench)

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Only option for third Arsenal?

      1. Ha.
        • 10 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        No, but seems to have the most upside

        1. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          Damn , tough, tho 3rd Arse would be nice so maybe 2

  19. DagheMunegu

    2ft 2M itb

    Raya
    Gabriel O'Reilly Van Hecke
    Bruno Cherki Gross Rogers KDH
    Haaland Welbeck

    DCL Munoz Lacroix

    A Rogers Munoz to Saka Bassey
    B Rogers DCL to Wilson Gyokeres

    1. RamaJama

      B

  20. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    A) Get KDH and play Pedro, even though ML leader (+10 points) has Gyokeres?

    B) Or get Gyokeres for Pedro and drop KDH?

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Probably getting Gyo won't give you anything? Not sure about the rest of your teams.

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Agree. Rest of team is below. Could also get Trossard

        Verbruggen
        Van Hecke, Gabriel, O’Reilly
        Bruno, Cherki, Saka, MGW
        Haaland (c), Pedro, Welbeck

        Darlow, Justin Tavernier Senesi,

        1. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          Could try with Tross but it's more of make or brake.

  21. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Wilson owners, what’s the plan currently ?

    1. Conners
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Currently starting but tempted to sell for Hinshelwood.

  22. Fernandito
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Which midfielder would you get to try and maximise BB this GW

    A Ndiaye (already have KDH)
    B Wilson
    C Brighton Mid potentially Hinshelwood

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      C

    2. ViperStripes

      1 month, 16 days ago

      C

  23. DropkickMurphys
    • 5 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Hey guys, which one to bench?

    A- Eze (BUR)
    B- Semenyo (bou)
    C- J.Pedro (TOT)
    D- DCL (BHA)

    Thanks!

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      D

    2. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Close, maybe D

      1. DropkickMurphys
        • 5 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Who would be your second choice, just wondering?

        Thanks guys

        1. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          Actually you have to read the predictions if Eze is set to play?

          1. DropkickMurphys
            • 5 Years
            1 month, 16 days ago

            Oh thanks for reminding that!

    Chasing in ML, play TC on Gyokeres?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Yes

    2. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Yeah

    3. Malkmus
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Yup

  25. ViperStripes
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    No FT's left. Only got Gabriel from Arsenal.

    Take a hit for Welbeck or Thiago > Gyo and bench Sarr?

    Hinshelwood, Cherki, BrunoF, Sarr, KDH
    Thiago, Haaland, Welbeck

    Thiago now needs 5 goals in 2matches to win Golden Boot, and that's if Haaland doesn't score again. So that incentive has gone.

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      No hit

    2. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Maybe Sarr to Tross?

  26. Jonta83
    • 6 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Raya or Eze for last two GWs?

    1. ball c
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Eze

  27. ball c
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    50 points behind ML leader so nothing to lose.
    Considering to bring in Schade as an all or nothing punt.. thoughts?
    Need someone like him to pull off a haul.

    1. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Captain a player that he doesn’t own

    2. DropkickMurphys
      • 5 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Maybe Beto?

      1. ball c
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        I’m going KDH so may captain him.

  28. ViperStripes
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Considering a differential captain to chase rank.

    Gabriel vs KDH

    Gab got 12pts vs Burnley last time out.

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      KDH

  29. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
    • 14 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Raya (Verbruggan)
    Gabriel Van Hecke O'Reilly (Munoz Lacroix)
    Eze Bruno Gross Cherki (Rogers)
    Haaland Bowen DCL

    2FT
    A Eze/Munoz to Trossard/Keane
    B Eze/Rogers to Saka/Ngumoha
    C Eze/Rogers/Munoz to KDH/Saka/Keane (-4)
    C Eze/Rogers/DCL to KDH/Xhaka/Gyokores (-4)

    1. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Or stick with Eze and lose Rogers - save the hits

  30. Djoora
    • 5 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Who would you pick insted of Rogers?
    1.Wilson
    2.Szoboslai
    3.B Guimaraes
    4.Other, 8.1 without Rodgers itb...

    Rest of the team:
    Kelleher,
    Saliba,Gabriel(tc),Guehi
    Fernandes,Rice,Ndiaye,Cherki,ROGERS OUT
    Haaland,Thiago..

    1. Bobby_Baggio
      • 15 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      I'd go Bruno.G - think New will stuff West.H
