Goals + assists imminent! Who is ‘due’ in FPL Gameweek 4?

Instead of using Gameweek 4 transfers on whoever has just hauled, try buying the next trend. In ‘Goals Imminent’, we look at the underlying statistics to predict which players are about to score.

That way, Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers can be proactive rather than reactive.

Marc and Joe have a regular Fantasy Football Scout podcast that discusses these underachievers, using the latter’s popular data table.

GOALS IMMINENT

The first table shows players who’ve had at least seven shots over the first three Gameweeks, but no more than one goal.

    Think I'm settled and locked on this wildcard now, I'm not overly happy with the de cuyper pick, bar the attacking returns he could get this weekend after that I don't trust Brighton defensively, I have two free transfers saved so hoping to move him on shortly,

    Kinksy
    Calafiori, konsa, de cuyper
    Palmer, saka, gross, szoboszlai
    Wissa, haaland, Pedro

    Bench, Forster, kdh, hall, ewijk

      Wissa to 4.5 and Gros to Gomez could upgrade another position;

      KDH to Odegaard or even Gakpo (dbl up)

    Really torn between Alex Scott, Marcus Tavernier, and Harvey Barnes just for this GW only. Who's the better option here?!

    Think I'll hold off investing in Newcastle assets despite their favourable fixtures. They were far from convincing last night.

    Probably make Shaw>Konsa my first transfer of the season, unless anything else crops up.

      The only asset to keep an eye on is Lewis Hall but not really interested in any attack

    Havertz to Isak? Would be a short term move, or target a Liverpool mid?

      Yes, because then you can bring in another Arsenal attacker.

        I mean, it could be Verbruggen > Dubravka and then upgrade one of the 4.0 defenders to a 4.5 such a Mitchell?

    Good morning everyone!

    Are there any Coventry assets that were sleeping on? That was an impressive performance away to City at the weekend and their fixtures are taking a turn for the better.

    On wild card. Looking at the Chelsea team and their good fixtures. I do not like more than one attacker from team thats not tittle contender, so have to look at their deffense. Martinez is obvious choice, but I like to talk about their defenders.
    Some thoughts about Hato? Does he nailed enough for WC team and every week starter? What about him as Fantasy asset? Eye test is passed, I think.
