The Scoreboard presents all the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) numbers you need from Saturday’s matches all on one screen.

As well as LiveFPL‘s rundown of the goals, assists and bonus points from the day’s FPL action, we’re bringing you a selection of the Opta stats that arrive in our Premium Members Area almost immediately after full-time in each fixture.

Our usual Scout Notes article, which summarises more of the main FPL talking points, notable manager quotes and injury news in extra detail, will follow.

BRIEF ROUND-UP

FPL Gameweek 8: Saturday’s goals, assists, bonus and statistics 9

Erling Haaland (£12.0m) made it 11 goals for the season with a strike in Manchester City’s 3-0 win over 10-man Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday lunchtime but he was outscored by Gameweek 8 captaincy alternatives Kevin De Bruyne (£12.3m), Harry Kane (£11.4m) and even second-half Tottenham Hotspur substitute Son Heung-min (£11.7m), who all bagged double-digit hauls.

De Bruyne provided two assists – his fifth and sixth of 2022/23 – to move top of the FPL midfielders’ points table, while Kane avoided a blank for the sixth straight match. Son scored a sensational hat-trick after coming on as a 59th-minute substitute, meanwhile, ending his goal drought in spectacular style as bottom-of-the-table Leicester City were thrashed 6-2.

The Foxes were abject defensively again but James Maddison (£7.9m) warmed up for Leicester’s favourable fixture swing nicely with a goal, topping the non-penalty expected goal involvement (NPxGI) table in Gameweek 8 so far.

Ivan Perisic (£5.6m) and Kieran Trippier (£5.3m) underscored their attacking potential with an assist apiece, compensating for clean sheet losses in their respective matches. Perisic somehow ended up with just two points, however, with a 54th-minute withdrawal compounded by a yellow card dished out for on-field encroachment after he was substituted.

Alexander Isak (£7.0m) and Youri Tielemans (£6.3m) were both on target from the spot for their teams on Saturday but the regulars penalty-takers of both Newcastle United and Leicester were off the field at the time; it remains to be seen if Isak has shunted the injured Callum Wilson (£7.2m) down the pecking order on Tyneside.

    After what feels like a very long week (including a 15hr shift) with little sleep and having been out all day yesterday doing stuff for friends and missing all the football, I'm really looking forward to sitting down to a nice early Sunday fixture, feels like we didn't have many last season? I have 4 players in the game too but honestly (at least for now) I'm not thinking about FPL and I'm just hoping for a good game

        Cheers mate, how'd you get on so far this week? I thought even with ASM out that Bruno Guimaraes would help, think they're missing Shelvey a bit. Bournemouth seem to have some fight in them under O'Neil though

        He did something you cannot do in the PL. He waited for the ball to arrive rather than move towards it. As below I dodged a bullet with his penalty.

      I brought him in for this week only, and am now on my wildcard, and thinking about keeping him considering their fixtures. Mitro and Haaland as other strikers. Toney would be my other option, so currently unsure. Got a while to think about it.

      It's interesting to see these comments about Isak, I brought him into my wildcard ahead of Toney specifically for the Bournemouth game but kept money aside to make the change if he didn't impress. I wasn't able to watch the game directly and the MOTD highlights didn't show much of him (which is possibly telling in itself).

      I may switch him out for the more proven player after today's games.

      This is going to be the killer - nothing to do with having your WC available over the IB. By removing J&T in our wildcards and their replacements having little or modest success then we're open for a good dose of being trashed.
