Come one, come all! The Scout has just released a new points predictor for an aspect of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) that is all the rage at the moment.

That’s right – the Fantasy Football Scout Members’ Area now features a predictor tool in the ‘Rate My Team’ section that forecasts the projected points for every Premier League team’s manager each week.

It comes as many FPL managers weigh up who to trust with their Assistant Manager chip, either for the first time or for the second of three rounds.

A screenshot of these projections for the next three Gameweeks can be found below, while the full version is now live and accessible to Members here. It also includes a ‘value’ score that incorporates each manager’s price compared to their predicted points.

The new tool is the brainchild of coding extraordinaire Chris Atkinson, based on current market-fitted team ratings and 10,000 simulations of the season. The league positions – important for in-game team bonus points – will be updated each Gameweek.

Arne Slot (£1.5m) and Unai Emery (£0.8m), for example, come out on top for projected points for this upcoming round of fixtures, which is of course due to the fact that both Liverpool and Aston Villa play twice in Double Gameweek 25.

Those two aside, Graham Potter (£0.5m) receives strong backing as his West Ham side prepare to host Brentford. The Bees have leaked goals all season, particularly on the road, while the Hammers have talisman Jarrod Bowen (£7.3m) fit and firing again, which was nearly enough to grab a result at Stamford Bridge last time out.

Table bonus points are on offer for Fabian Hürzeler (£1.1m) if his Brighton side can bounce back from their heavy Gameweek 24 defeat and take points off Chelsea in Friday evening’s Gameweek 25 opener. Those FPL managers who backed David Moyes (£0.5m) to great effect for his double last time out may want to pivot away from the Everton boss this time around, given he travels to an in-form Crystal Palace.

      agree

    2. have you seen cyan

      Its fun. I'm looking forward to my 400 points across the next 2 gameweeks 🙂

      Finding new things increasing annoying? That’s a sign of getting old mate!

    4. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Disagree

    5. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Once you decide when to play it, it's okay

      Also if you end up on a £1.5m manager there's a cash bonus coming back for wk4.

  2. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    Semenyo or Kluivert?

    1. Luis Suarez Ate My Homework
      • 14 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Kluivert the most in form of the two and on pens.

    2. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Kluivert

  3. DavvaMC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    Not sure on a couple of starters for this GW.

    Would you drop any of the below to start with Rogers?

    A. Wissa
    B. Isak
    C. Mbuemo
    D. Kluivert
    E. Gakpo

    And who to drop from the below defenders?

    1. Robinson
    2. Munoz
    3. Kerkez

    Thanks

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      If bench Wissa for Rogers and play Muñoz and Kerkez

      A1

  4. Boss Hogg
    • 16 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    For dgw25:

    a. Gakpo and Emery
    b. Mateta and Emery (-4)
    c. Wissa and Slot (-4)

    ???

    1. g40steve

      A

  5. it lies in the proles
    • 9 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    Evenin’ comrades

    Any Villa defender worth a try?

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      No, they never were ever.

    2. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      I don’t think so.
      Chance of a cleanie against Ipswich of course and might get lucky with a goal. Not much on offer for a Villa defender against Liverpool.
      Better SGW options available this week.

    3. Philosopher's Stones
      • 5 Years

      Sorry mate, can't answer as I'm not a comrade.

    4. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Keeper

  6. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    I wonder how Moyes is handling his new fame. He is probably trending lol.

    We need a reporter to ask him about AssMan.

    1. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Everyone got something in dgw24 didn’t they? Either Moyes or Slot or Salah TC. A million points to everyone!

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        12 months, 1 day ago

        Yep. Even some who didn't play a chip got largely away with it somehow.

        I had a great week, 149 so I shouldn't complain. But I was doing so well before yesterday. I was on 111 and had a GW rank of like 35k or something. Salah then ran riot and everyone with TC bloody caught me up, many overtook me. Gameweek rank in the end is 140k with 149 points...

      2. El Presidente
        • 6 Years
        12 months, 1 day ago

        You would be surprised...

    2. Hairy Potter
      • 10 Years

      Better than that time he threatened to slap that female reporter.

    Really? 🙄

    1. Hairy Potter
      • 10 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Yep, all inclusive here. No calling someone Fatman to try and belittle them.

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        12 months, 1 day ago

        I call him Fatman Scoop after his favourite music artist.

    2. Blueberg

      Surprised you got that far in to the article before whinging.

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        12 months, 1 day ago

        😆

  8. Conners
    • 7 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    How does Emery 25 - Frank 26 - Pereira 27 sound?

    Gives two fixtures against promoted teams and two shots at table bonus.

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Plus 2 transfers. Thats why I ain’t doing it

    2. Conners
      • 7 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      I can afford the transfers (touch wood). Already have 9 players for the blank.

  9. g40steve
    • 7 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    Why not show full timeline 23 & 24, did it predict Moyes amazing start?

  10. Captain Mal
    • 1 Year
    12 months, 1 day ago

    What's your plan with Gakpo if he is actually injured?

    1. notlob legin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      In that scenario I would advise selling

    2. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Mateta or Wissa are both options.

    3. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      I’ll get Cunha early and bench

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        12 months, 1 day ago

        I will get Ait in for GW29. Cant wait, lol.

        ShAite-Nouri returns.

    4. Conners
      • 7 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Plan is to start Wood instead of Gakpo if he misses the Wolves game.

      Longer term, I'll keep him for the Sou fixture in 28 and sell for Cunha in 29.

    5. Hairy Potter
      • 10 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Get Mateta, unless Emery confirms that Watkins is fully fit and ready to play.

    1. Yozzer

    2. ebb2sparky
      • 15 Years

      I'd start Pedro and play 3 at the back

    3. Conners
      • 7 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      How about...

      Roll this week, next week Diaz, Rogers, Ndiaye to Kluivert, Dango and Cunha.

    4. Bluetiger1

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      This is my thinking, a couple of SGW managers have a chance of bonus

    2. Bluetiger1
      • 3 Years

      Emery

    A - Gabriel to Virgil
    B - Isak to Watkins

  23. Klip Klopp

    Triple captain Salah this week?

    1. ebb2sparky
      • 15 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      It's probably his last double so yes. Not sure he'll get 29 points again though.

  24. davewg59
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Bench Mbuemo or Elanga please?

  25. ebb2sparky
    • 15 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    How do i fit Kluivert into a midfield of Salah, Palmer, Mbeumo, Rogers and Amad?

    A) Amad out this week (not ideal for gw29)
    B) Rogers out next week (means no Bournemouth players v Southampton)

    1. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      I wouldn't be very worried about no Bournemouth this week if those were my other mids.

      B is absolutely fine.

    2. Yes Ndidi
      • 6 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Gotta keep Amad for IPS27

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Amad out

  26. Yes Ndidi
    • 6 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    Need to drop Hall to a 4.2/4.3 defender to allow AM Emery (purely due to how the doubles & blanks might fall later and keeping my options open).
    4th/5th defender, no FH29

    1. Castagne
    2. Andersen
    3. Mazraoui
    4. Van den Berg
    5. Doherty

    1. ebb2sparky
      • 15 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      3 or 5 based on gw29 fixture but are they both nailed to start?

      1. Yes Ndidi
        • 6 Years
        12 months, 1 day ago

        Probably wouldn't even need to start them in 29 (should have 12).

  27. GoonerByron
    • 14 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    What am I better to do here? (Only 1FT currently)

    A) Havertz -> Wissa (whu) this week, bench Robinson (NFO)

    B) Start Robinson (NFO), bench Havertz and get another week's info first

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      B awaiting who plays up top

    2. ebb2sparky
      • 15 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      Tough one. I think I'd sell havertz to avoid playing 4 at the back. If you're sure about wissa then get him.

    3. F4L
      • 11 Years
      12 months, 1 day ago

      if you want Wissa anyways, would just get him now. likely he outscores robinson this gw.

      if you're looking at other strikers and undecided then wait

  28. Bubbles1985
    • 8 Years
    12 months, 1 day ago

    Current squad:

    Alisson
    VVD(vc) Munoz Digne

    0.2m itb and 0ft

    1FT was used for the Assistant Manager with Moyes > Emery

    Should I take -4 to shift Isak > Watkins or am I G2G??

    Advice welcome, thanks

    1. For Beto or Wirtz!
      • 1 Year

      I'm not sure I'd even do it for free. Watkins not confirmed and Emery has other options now. If Newcastle turn up then Isak will score.
