<h2><strong>Best FPL Players for Gameweek 29</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>Erling Haaland (£14.7m) – Manchester City</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Brighton (H)</strong></p>
<p>Erling Haaland and Manchester City haven't been looking the same as seasons past.</p>
<p>However, the Norwegian still has 20 goals this season, with seven in the last 10 league matches.</p>
<p>City have a decent home game in Blank Gameweek 29 against Brighton.</p>
<p>Despite City's poor season, they have scored the second most goals (53) and boast the third best xG (expected goals) with 50.2.</p>
<p>They are also the favourites to score 2.5+ goals (38%) next gameweek.</p>
<p>With popular assets like <strong>Mohamed Salah</strong> and <strong>Alexander Isak </strong>blanking this week he is going to be one of the best captaincy options.</p>
<p>Good fixtures usually breed good form especially among elite FPL assets like Haaland.</p>
<p>He is the favourite to score at any time (57%) in Blank Gameweek 29 and is the highest predicted scoring player (7.1 points) according to <strong><a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI.</a></strong></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Bruno Fernandes (£8.3m) - Manchester United</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Leicester City (A)</strong></p>
<p>Bruno Fernandes has seven goals and nine assists this season, as well as two goals and two assists in the last three games.</p>
<p>The Portuguese has been putting up good <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/opta" aria-label="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/opta/">stats</a> with an xG of 8.3 and an xA (expected assists) of 5.3.</p>
<p>Manchester United have one of the best fixtures of the season as they take on lowly Leicester City.</p>
<p>The Foxes have conceded the second-most goals (61) with an xGC (expected goals conceded) of 50.9 (third-worst).</p>
<p>United will be strong favourites for this one, and Fernandes will be the most likely player to pick up attacking returns.</p>
<p>He is one of the most reliable options in the game – he will play 90 minutes most weeks, is on penalties and set-pieces, and has high goal and assist threat.</p>
<p>The United talisman is at 30% to score at any time, and the third-highest predicted scoring player (5.4 points) for Blank Gameweek 29 according to <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI.</a></p>
<div id="attachment_71406" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-71406" class="size-full wp-image-71406" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/FFStuffImage-2025-03-10T225239.629.jpg" alt="Bruno Fernandes Stats" width="798" height="650" /></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Chris Wood (£7.3m) - Nottingham Forest</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Ipswich (A)</strong></p>
<p>Chris Wood is having a phenomenal season, netting 18 goals and three assists so far.</p>
<p>He has been clinical in front of goal, and is Nottingham Forest's clear talisman.</p>
<p>Nuno Espirito Santo's side are well and truly in the hunt for a Champions League spot and they have a fine fixture this week to further their goal.</p>
<p>Ipswich have conceded the third-most goals (57) and have the second-worst xGC (51.7) so it looks inevitable that Forest will score a few here.</p>
<p>Wood is nailed to start, plays up front, and is the first choice penalty taker for his team.</p>
<p>The Kiwi is also at a healthy 40% to score at any time in Blank Gameweek 29 - and a genuine captaincy contender.</p>
<p>He is the fourth highest predicted scoring player (5.3 points) according to <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI</a>.</p>
<div id="attachment_71407" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-71407" class="size-full wp-image-71407" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/FFStuffImage-2025-03-10T225944.964.jpg" alt="Chris Wood Stats" width="798" height="650" /></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Low Ownership Options</h2>
<h3><strong>Evanilson (£5.6m) – Bournemouth</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Brentford (H)</strong></p>
<p>Evanilson started his first league game since an injury in Gameweek 20, and he duly scored, picking up three bonus points too.</p>
<p>He is nailed to start as Bournemouth's number 9 and will get plenty of chances in this side.</p>
<p>Bournemouth have a good fixture this week as they welcome Brentford to the Vitality Stadium</p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">The Bees have conceded the seventh-most goals (43) with an xGC of 41.5 (eighth-worst), so they do give up chances.</span></p>
<p>Bournemouth have been good going forward, scoring 45 goals (seventh-most) with an xG of 47.69 (fourth-best).</p>
<p>They will be strong favourites here and Evanilson is a great option.</p>
<p>The Brazilian is the third favourite to score at any time (43%) and is also only owned by 0.8 percent of managers at the time of writing.</p>
<div id="attachment_71408" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-71408" class="size-full wp-image-71408" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/FFStuffImage-2025-03-10T230754.486.jpg" alt="Evanilson Stats" width="798" height="650" /></p>
<p id="caption-attachment-71408" class="wp-caption-text">Evanilson's stats</p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Beto (£5.1m) - </strong><strong>Everton</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: West Ham (H)</strong></p>
<p>Beto has been in fine form after being given a run in the starting XI.</p>
<p>Since Gameweek 24 he has five goals, and has actually been really unfortunate not to have more.</p>
<p>Since David Moyes took the reigns at Everton they have been more attacking, and most attacks are going through Beto down the middle.</p>
<p>The Toffees have a plum home tie against West Ham who have conceded the fifth-most goals (47) with an xGC of 42.9 (sixth-worst).</p>
<p>Everton aren't the most prolific in front of goal, but Beto is their talisman right now and looks the one most likely to score for them.</p>
<p>He will also likely be the first choice penalty taker for Everton, with both <strong>Dominic Calvert-Lewin </strong>and<strong> Iliman Ndiaye </strong>still injured.</p>
<p>Although he has been picking up plenty of new owners of late, he is only at 7.7% ownership so is very much still a differential.</p>
<p>The Guinea-Bissau international is rated at 41% to score at any time.</p>
