How good are Pukki’s upcoming fixtures after hat-trick heroics?

Teemu Pukki (£6.8m) has already taken FPL by storm, scoring four goals in his first two Premier League matches.

Fantasy managers are flocking to sign the Norwich forward, with a third price rise of the season occurring overnight.

The hat-trick scored against Newcastle in Gameweek 2 sent the demand for Pukki into overdrive, but his new owners were clearly also impressed with his ability to score even at Anfield in Gameweek 1.

However, there are still some who are a little concerned about Norwich’s upcoming fixtures.

So we’ve analysed the numbers recorded so far this season to test whether or not Pukki is a sensible signing for Gameweek 3.

As this article uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area, only those who have signed up for the 2019/20 season can access it in full.

Have Pukki’s underlying statistics been good?

Lessons learned from Gameweek 2

    Which one to bench? The other two will play.
    (Essentially Digne's cover)
    A. Lundstram
    B. Dendoncker
    C. King
    D. Take a hit. King to Jota/Haller - 4 or Den to McGinn/Ceballos

      2. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Having lunch with his mates.
        Cannot have everyone.
        I have KDB so went Mane for balance.

    3. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      That is beautiful. KWP to Hanley. And then rotate playing Cantwell, Pieters and Lundstram?

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Not a bad call. just want to keep this week vs Newcastle. EEEk

    4. Artemis Titans
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I have this exact team with the exception of Vardy Instead of Firminho.

      1. Artemis Titans
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Kelly

        1. Eze Really?
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Time for him to go.

      2. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Not impressed with Vardy. But at least I could afford the side.

    5. KIRA
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      W.Peters to Dunk
      Dgine to Mina

  3. Fernando Torres
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    A) Cantwell + Digne + Kelly (1 of Cantwell or Lundy start each game)
    B) Ceballos + Pieters + Soyuncku

  4. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    For wildcard choose one out of these:

    A) Pope, VVD & Laporte

    B) Pope, TAA & Walker/Zinchencko

    C) Ederson, TAA & 4.5m def
    (Lund, Cantwell & 4.5m def to rotate for 3rd spot)

    Cheers! 🙂

    1. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Not sure TAA better than VVD atm.
      TAA defensively not as good as Gomez and against Arsenal you can guess what might happen.

  5. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Son, KDB, Kane, Martial, Rash. Defo going with the wrong 2. Love ittt

    1. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      If Son had a game under his belt I would pick him.
      See my team above.

  6. SMOOTH
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    can i please get opinions on this?

    A. Martial + Diop
    B. Barnes + Coleman

    1. Clay Davis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      B. Barnes isn't the glamorous name most people like, but he's in form and is decent value. Same with Coleman

    Who do you fear most not owning this weekend?

    1. Eze Really?

      Kane

    2. Squeakybum99

      Kane

    3. Clay Davis

      Son

  8. Squeakybum99
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Play Lundstorm or Dendo as first sub? if Digne doesn't play.

    1. Bob_the_builder
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Lund

  9. Zenith UK

    Digne, AWB, Lund, Kelly Zinc
    Sterling, KDB, Martial, Ceballos, Mane
    Kane, Greenwood, Wickham

    Pickford*, McGovern
    Digne, AWB, Lund, Pieters*, Laporte*

      1 by a mile

  10. MagnetBPS

    How is this looking?

    Pope(Button)
    Digne AWB Zinchenko Soyunchu(Lundstram)
    Sterling KDB Martial Son Mane
    Pukki(Wickham Greenwood)

  11. migas2k7
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    hey guys who do you prefer and why?

    Ceballos, Trossard, Mount

    1. Clay Davis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Mount. Despit what people say, he's nailed on. Lamps loves him. The others will likely be rotated.

  12. Eze Really?
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Who has really passed the eye test in your opinion but getting missed out on the site?
    in the same breath, who is getting coverage but does not pass?

    My main choice is Firmino. He could have had 4 goals already.
    Martial is the other 1. I have him because he is playing centre forward. But not been over impressed with his involvement.

    1. Rust Cohle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Agree with you completely. Nevertheless, having trouble bringing the one in and taking the other out. Firmino loves to score against the Arsenal. With Palace defense only letting-in 1 in 2, very easy to see Martial blanking and Firmino on the scoresheet again, earning himself some attention here.

    2. Clay Davis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Harry Wilson. The guy scores goals for fun and is an absolute steal!

      1. Maddi Son
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        This. He has Jota stats in the Championship and arguably plays for a more attacking side. Bringing him in next week.

        1. Clay Davis
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          He's superb 'ey. I think he'll outscore Fraser this season.

          Hull 2017/18 - 7 goals in 13 league games
          Derby 2018/19 - 15 goals in 40 league games
          Bournemouth 2019/20 - 1 goal in 1 league games
          --
          Total 23 goals in 54 games = a goal every 2.35 games.

          1. Clay Davis
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            A lot of talk about Mount on this site, and he was inferior to Wilson last season at Derby

            Mount - 9 goals 4 assists in 38 appearances (3321 mins)
            Wilson - 16 goals 4 assists in 43 appearances (3455 mins)

            Same price!

  13. llmja

    A. Roberson + Perez to Matial + AWB (-4) has VVD
    B.Perez + C.Wilson to Matial + Pukki (-4)
    C.Save

    Thank You.

    What’s the Chelsea striker situation? Does Giroud keep his place or return to the bench?

    1. Efe Ambrose
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Who knows, neither are good value for money - more about the link up play than goals

    2. MagnetBPS
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      giroud looks better than tammy

  15. Igor-Stimac
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    King vs City or Cantwell vs Chelsea?

    1. Efe Ambrose
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      King

    2. MagnetBPS
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      cantwell

    3. Clay Davis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Cantwell. Chelsea look ropey at the back

  16. Efe Ambrose
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    2 FT's - shall I do Perez and Wilson ---> King and Martial?

    1. Igor-Stimac
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Yes.

  17. AFCB2019
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Bit of opinion needed here. Currently on this team, having already gone minus 4 to get rid of Robertson, Robinson and Perez to get in Walker-Peters, Martial and Mount. The question I have is, is it worth another 4 point hit (so minus 8 overall) to get Pukki in for King? He only needs to score one against Chelsea to justify it?!

    Heaton (McGovern)
    KWP, VVD, Coleman, Zinchenko (Kelly)
    Martial, Sterling, Salah, Mount (Dendoncker)
    Kane, King (Greenwood)

    Thoughts welcome!

    1. Igor-Stimac
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Not for the hit, leave as is.

    2. Clay Davis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Take a hit. His price is rocketing so is worth it

      1. AFCB2019
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers for the input guys. Deciding vote anyone?
