Gameweek 33 Fantasy Premier League Captaincy: The Options
There are three main candidates for the armband this week.
Mohamed Salah
- Goals: 19
- Assists: 4
- FPL Points: 190
- FPL points in the last five matches: 21
- Price: £12.6
- Opponents: Newcastle United (home)
Prior to getting benched in the last game, Salah had scored in two successive games. That should mean he could start this Saturday. He is still missing a lot of chances but he should get enough at home to Newcastle United. The Magpies have improved in recent weeks but one has to fancy Liverpool here. Salah is probably the best captaincy choice this week on paper.
Bruno Fernandes
- Goals: 16
- Assists: 13
- FPL Points: 218
- FPL points in the last five matches: 22
- Price: £11.6
- Opponents: Leeds United (away)
Bruno Fernandes has scored only once in the last five matches. In the previous match against Burnley, he played well but did not get the FPL points his performance probably merited. Fernandes had a great match against Leeds earlier in the season, scoring a mammoth 17 points. However, Marcelo Bielsa’s men perform much better defensively these days and it won’t be easy for the Red Devils at Elland Road. Despite that, Fernandes is a very good captaincy option this week.
Kelechi Iheanacho
- Goals: 8
- Assists: 0
- FPL Points: 70
- FPL points in the last five matches: 50
- Price: £6.1
- Opponents: Crystal Palace (home)
Kelechi Iheanacho is enjoying the form of his life at the moment. He has scored seven goals and 50 FPL points in the last five matches in the Premier League. One cannot ignore that form. Besides, he is facing a team in Crystal Palace that has nothing to play for this season. With the Foxes needing the three points to continue their charge for a spot in next season’s Champions League, this is a match Iheanacho could thrive in. One has to consider him strongly for the armband this week.

Kelechi Iheanacho is the player on form and he has the fixture going for him as well. One should probably decide between him and Salah this week.
