<h2 style="text-align: left;">The Best FPL Forwards for Gameweek 23</h2>
<h3>Double Gameweek 23 Possibility</h3>
At the time of writing, no fixtures have been rearranged for Gameweek 23. Aston Villa are the likeliest to get a Double Gameweek and they will play one of Burnley or Leeds United which means one of them would also have a Double Gameweek if the rearrangement transpires.
See the latest possible fixture schedule below or check out our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-blank-double-gameweek-guide-2021-22/">FPL Double Gameweek Guide</a> where you can see the predicted probability of each scenario in more detail.
<h3></h3>
<h3>Josh King (£5.8m) – Watford</h3>
Fixture: Norwich (H)
At the time of writing, Josh King has five goals and four assists. He has 30 Shots in the Box with an xG of 6.77 (4th amongst forwards) and has created 29 Chances with an xA of 3.43.
Watford have a great fixture in Gameweek 23 as they take on Norwich. The Hornets will see this as a vital game against their relegation rivals and with them being at home they will have the advantage.
The Canaries have conceded 45 goals (20th) with an xGC of 38.3 (19th) this season which ranks them as one of the worst defensive sides in the league.
Claudio Ranieri’s men will be favourites to win this one and will see it is a must-win game if they want to have any chance of staying in the Premier League next season.
Watford have scored 23 goals (15th) with an xG of 24.3 (15th). Although their attacking stats aren’t the best, they cant ask for a better fixture this week for attack. Our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fixture-ticker/">Fixture Ticker</a> agrees and has them as the top team for Gameweek 23.
King is nailed to start in that team and he is also currently the <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/?post_type=post&amp;p=11173">number one penalty taker</a> and he won't get a better game all season to add to his attacking returns tally.

<h3>Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.5m) – Manchester United</h3>
Fixture: West Ham United (H)
Cristiano Ronaldo has eight goals and three assists with 47 Shots in the Box (1st among forwards) with an xG of 9.07 (1st among forwards). He has also created 15 chances with an xA of 2.84.
These stats are despite him only starting 14 games this season which is less than most of the other forwards.
Manchester United come up against West Ham United in Gameweek 23 who have conceded 30 goals (12th) with an xGC of 31.4 (13th).
Although they are having a great season by their standards they have been leaking goals recently and this is most likely due to a raft of injuries to their defence.
Their first choice centre backs, Angelo Ogbonna and Kurt Zouma have been out for a while and they have also had injuries to the likes of Coufal and Cresswell.
United have scored 32 goals (6th) with an xG of 32.1 (6th) and with the firepower they have in the final third they will be favourites to not only score but win this one. The bookmakers also have them as the third favourites to score 2.5+ goals (29%) this week.
Ronaldo has been the main source of goals for them this season. He has a Goal Involvement of 48% and is also now the <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/?post_type=post&amp;p=11173">first-choice penalty taker.</a>
Cristiano is the fourth highest predicted points scorer (5.0) amongst forwards for Gameweek 23 according to our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool</a> and also at 53% (2nd) to score at anytime.
<div id="attachment_42424" style="width: 819px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-42424" class="size-full wp-image-42424" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Cristiano-Ronaldo-Stats-1.jpg" alt="Cristiano Ronaldo Stats. best gameweek 23 forwards" width="809" height="652" />

<h3>Chris Wood (£6.7m) – Newcastle United </h3>
Fixture: Leeds United (a)
Chris Wood is not having the best of seasons but his move to Newcastle United could well rejuvenate his season. Although Newcastle sit second bottom in the league they do have a better attack than Burnley.
He has currently scored three goals with an xG of 4.48, and created 9 Chances with an xA of 1.39.
The Toon come up against Leeds United in Gameweek 23 which is a good fixture for them from an attacking sense. Bielsa’s team have conceded 39 goals (18th) with an xGC of 35.8 (18th).
Newcastle don’t have the best of attacks admittedly having scored only 20 goals (17th) with an xG of 19.7 (18th) but they have more than enough quality to score against Leeds with the likes of Allan Saint-Maximin and now Chris Wood.
This looks like a high scoring game on paper with both defences suspect and both managers as really attack-minded. This if course bodes well for Wood and his owners. There is a fair chance he will also take over on <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/?post_type=post&amp;p=11173">penalty duties</a> with Calum Wilson out until at least March.
Our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool</a> has him as the highest predicted scoring budget forward (5.2 points) for Gameweek 23.
<div id="attachment_42425" style="width: 820px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-42425" class="size-full wp-image-42425" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Chris-Wood-Stats-1.jpg" alt="Chris Wood Stats. best budget forwards gameweek 23" width="810" height="657" />

<h3>Alexandre Lacazette (£8.4m) – Arsenal</h3>
Fixture: Burnley (H)
In 10 starts the Frenchman has three goals and three assists with 12 Shots in the Box and an xG of 4.19. He has also created 16 Chances with an xA of 1.90.
With Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang still in Mikel Arteta’s bad books and the Gabonese also away to AFCON, Lacazette is still nailed as the number one centre forward.
Arsenal have a very favourable fixture in Gameweek 23 as they take on bottom of the table Burnley. The Clarets have conceded 27 goals (8th) with an xGC of 29.0 (9th). They have only played 17 games though due to the number of postponements they have had so their defensive numbers will be far worse than this.
The North London side on the other have had no problems scoring this season and are enjoying a good campaign as they sit 5th in the league with two games in hand over West Ham who sit 4th.
The Gunners have scored 33 goals (5th) with an xG of 32.5 (5th) and are the fourth favourites to score 2.5+ goals (27%) in Gameweek 23 according to the bookmakers.
Lacazette has scored 50 goals and 27 assists in his last four seasons for Arsenal. He is a proven goal scorer and with him being first choice right now and on <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/?post_type=post&amp;p=11173">penalties</a> he is a great option this week.
Our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Price Prediction Tool</a> also has him as the highest predicted scoring forward (5.9 points) for Gameweek 23.
<div id="attachment_42427" style="width: 819px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-42427" class="size-full wp-image-42427" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Alxandrew-Lacazette-Stats.jpg" alt="Alexandre Lacazette Stats. best captains gw23" width="809" height="648" />

<h3>Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.9m) – Everton</h3>
Fixture: Aston Villa (H)
The Everton forward scored 16 goals and made 6 assists in 32 starts last season and has 3 goals in five starts this campaign. He has 16 Shots in the Box with an xG of 3.94 so his underlying numbers have been great.
He is undoubtedly nailed in his position and is the best attacking option for the Toffees and his stats last season were up there with the best in the game.
Everton come up against Aston Villa (H) in Gameweek 23. The Villains have conceded 32 goals (14th) with an xGC of 30.8 (11th). The Merseyside club have had a really poor season so far but with Rafa Benitez now no longer manager they could well pick up again.
Calvert-Lewin is a proven goal scorer and he seems to have left off where he ended last season despite his missed penalty in Gameweek 21. He had a 52% Goal Involvement last season (3rd overall) and is their clear talisman. I don’t see that changing this season either.
He is also the first-choice penalty taker for Everton and if fit will end the season as their top goalscorer, surely.
The England international is also the second highest predicted scoring forward (5.6 points) for Gameweek 23 according to our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool.</a>
<div id="attachment_42433" style="width: 817px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-42433" class="size-full wp-image-42433" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Dominic-Calvert-Lewin-Stats.jpg" alt="Dominic Calvert-Lewin Stats. best gw23 captains" width="807" height="651" />
