<h2 style="text-align: left;">The Best FPL Midfielders for Blank Gameweek 27</h2>
<h3> 
Jarrod Bowen (£7.1m) – West Ham United</h3>
Fixture: Wolves (H)
Jarrod Bowen has managed an impressive eight goals and 13 assists this season with 50 Shots in the Box and an xG of 9.89. He has also created 40 Chances with an xA of 6.13.
West Ham United come up against Wolves this week who have a very good defensive record. They have been among the best defensive sides in the league this season, conceding only 18 goals (2nd) with and xGC of 32.0 (6th).
However, the Hammers have been amongst the best teams attacking wise. They have scored 45 goals (4th) with an xG 40.4 (5th). This won't be an easy fixture for David Moyes’s men but they will be favourites and they are also at 22% to score 2.5+ goals (4th) according to the bookmakers.
West Ham are well in the hunt for a top four finish this season and the main reason for that has been the form of Bowen. He has been the best value player in the game, starting at a price of only £6.5m. He has goal and assist threat and is on a lot of set pieces which gives him plenty of avenues to points.
Also in a week where Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal blank he could well be the one to shine for his owners.

<h3>Heung-Min Son (£10.7m) – Spurs</h3>
Fixture: Leeds United (a)
Heung-Min Son has been so consistent this season. He has nine goals and seven assists in only 20 starts for Spurs. The South Korean has registered 31 Shots in the Box with an xG of 8.20 while also creating 47 Chances with an xA of 5.58
Tottenham travel to Elland Road in Blank Gameweek 27 to take on Leeds United. This is a fantastic fixture for them from an attacking perspective.
Marcelo Bielsa’s team have conceded 50 goals (19th) with an xGC of 44.0 (19th). Only bottom of the table Norwich have a worse defensive record than them and judging by their gung-ho attacking nature I can’t see them improving much.
Over the season Spurs have scored 31 goals (9th) with an xG of 38.5 (6th) and have a very potent attack with the likes of Son, Harry Kane (£12.2m), and new signing Dejan Kulusevski (£6.0m).
This is a very plum fixture for Son as he is great against teams who attack and leave themselves open at the back. The Korean has a history of exploiting this with his pace, which he showed against Manchester City last gameweek with his two assists.
He is also on a lot of set pieces, including corners, so he has many ways to score points.
The attacking midfielder has been their best player this season, both from a real life and FPL perspective, and now has a Goal Involvement of 57% (1st among his team) in the games he has played.
Our <a href="https://fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool</a> ranks him as third highest predicted scoring midfielder (7.0 points) for Blank Gameweek 27.

<h3>Bruno Fernandes (£11.7m) – Manchester United</h3>
Fixture: Watford (H)
After a slow first half of the season, the Portuguese has really stepped it up recently. Over the season he has nine goals and six assists with 25 Shots in the Box and an xG of 6.40. He has also created 86 Chances with an xA of 8.54 (2nd overall).
Manchester United have one of the <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fixture-ticker/">best fixtures</a> of Blank Gameweek 27 as they welcome Watford to Old Trafford. The Hornets have conceded 43 goals (17th) with an xGC 41.0 (16th). They have been poor at the back and United will be strong favourites for this one.
The Red Devils have scored 44 goals (5th) with an xG of 45.2 (4th) and have been good in the final third. I don’t see them having any problems here against Roy Hodgson’s team. The bookmakers also have United as the second favourites to score 2.5+ goals (45%).
Looking at the array of attacking players they have in their team, it’s no surprise. Bruno Fernandes looks like the best option right now. He can both score and assist and has the highest Goal Involvement (37%) in his team. He is also the joint top scorer (9) with Ronaldo too.
Bruno is on a lot of set-pieces which of course gives him more chances of returns. He will get plenty of chances in this game to both score or assist in my opinion and could well be worth giving the <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/the-best-captain-for-fpl-blank-gameweek-27-tips-for-bgw27-captaincy/">captain's armband</a> to.

</ul>
Our <a href="https://fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool</a> actually ranks him as the highest predicted scoring midfielder (7.3 points) and second overall for Blank Gameweek 27.

<h3>Raheem Sterling (£10.7m) – Manchester City</h3>
Fixture: Everton (a)
Raheem Sterling has actually had a very good season and has largely gone under the radar. He has 10 goals and three assists in only 16 starts and has registered 37 Shots in the Box with an xG of 10.93 (4th among midfielders). The England midfielder has also created 33 Chances with an xA of 4.54.
Manchester City have a very plum fixture as they take on Everton at Goodison. The Toffees have conceded 40 goals (15th) with an xGC of 37.7 (12th). They have been dragged into the relegation battle this season and are really struggling.
City, on the other hand, have scored 63 goals (2nd) with an xG of 61.3 (2nd) and we don’t need to be told about how good they are going forward. The bookmakers have them as the favourites to score 2.5+ goals (49%) in Blank Gameweek 27 also.
Sterling had a slow start to the season where he seemed to have fallen out of favour with Pep Guardiola. However, since Gameweek 12 he has managed a very impressive nine goals and three assists and he has been playing a lot more regularly. He is also City's current top scorer and has the best goal threat by far.
Our <a href="https://fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Price Prediction Tool</a> has him as the fifth highest predicted scoring midfielder in the game (6.3 points) for Blank Gameweek 27.
<div id="attachment_44315" style="width: 809px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-44315" class="wp-image-44315 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Raheem-Sterling-Stats.jpg" alt="Raheem Sterling Stats. top 5 best midfielders blank gameweek 27" width="799" height="650" />

<h3> 
Riyad Mahrez (£8.7m) – Manchester City</h3>
Fixture: Everton (a)
Riyad Mahrez has also had a very good season with eight goals and five assists for the Blues. He has 27 Shots in the Box with an xG of 6.71 while also creating 35 Chances with an xA of 4.05.
The Algerian has only started 10 games so clearly very productive when he plays.
I think Mahrez should get the start in this game as he has been playing well and he wasn’t in the starting 11 which lost to Spurs last Gameweek. I believe the benching against Tottenham was tactical and he wasn’t dropped. Guardiola does have a tendency to keep starting his players who are playing well and he hasn’t done much wrong this season.
Also when Mahrez came on against Tottenham Hotspur, City did look much better and he also grabbed a goal.
Furthermore, as mentioned earlier, City have a great fixture against an out of sorts Everton team. Mahrez also has the most points per game (9) from his team and is also the first choice penalty taker.
