Gameweek 24 is over and it was quite eventful one, FPL managers have got no time to rest as Gameweek 25 is about to start. Let's take a look at the Top captain picks for Gameweek 25.
Gameweek 25 is set to start extensive discussion over FPL captaincy, given the advantageous double fixtures for both Manchester City and Liverpool, thereby bringing the Triple Captain chip into consideration. Both Liverpool and Manchester City are set to face Brentford in the double gameweek, presenting top candidates such as Erling Haaland and Darwin Nunez for captaincy consideration over two matches. Here are the top captain picks for FPL Gameweek 25:
Erling Haaland not only reclaims his status as the preferred captain pick following his return from injury, but he also has many managers thinking the use of the Triple Captain chip after his amazing brace against Everton in the previous gameweek. With 22 attacking returns from 17 starts this season, Haaland presents impressive numbers, projecting a huge points return for his owners in Gameweek 25 and as City’s first choice penalty taker, he offers an additional source for points.
Liverpool’s Darwin Nunez enters the captaincy conversation, as he will benefit from favorable fixtures away at Brentford and at home against Luton. Nunez’s recent form includes three goals and one assist in the last four gameweeks. Nunez’s appeal lies in his amazing underlying statistics, leading in both shots (20) and big chances (6) in the last four gameweeks. With ample opportunities to hit the target, clinical finishing could result in a significant points haul for FPL managers.
An interesting differential in the captaincy discussion is Brentford’s main man Ivan Toney, who could thrive despite challenging fixtures for the Bees. While Toney is yet to score against Liverpool in his career, he did manage to score a brace the last time he visited the Etihad. Since his return to Premier League action post a long-term ban, Toney has showcased fine form with four goal involvements in four starts, playing 90 minutes in each of the match.
