<h2>FPL Gameweek 28 fixtures</h2>
<p>Eight teams have a highly rated match-up this week according to the <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fixture-ticker">Hub's fixture ticker</a>, with Bournemouth top of the list.</p>
<p>Andoni Iraola's team host Sunderland, who rank seventh worst for expected goals conceded (xGC) and second bottom for expected goals (xG) away from home.</p>
<p>Newcastle and Liverpool are tied for second, with home matches against Everton and West Ham respectively.</p>
<p>Manchester United's opponents Crystal Palace head to Old Trafford with two wins in three - but this hides a longer-term struggle where those were their only victories in 12.</p>
<p>Away fixtures for Aston Villa and Brentford are the anomalies on this list - but their players are well placed to perform strongly against relegation favourites Wolves and Burnley.</p>

<h3>Gameweek 28-32 fixtures</h3>
<p>Looking ahead, <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-blank-double-gameweek-guide">Blank Gameweek 31</a> is in full view.</p>
<p>The blank relegates Arsenal, Wolves, Manchester City and Palace towards the bottom of the ticker, although it's still not certain the latter two will be without a game.</p>
<p>Brentford have the pick of the fixtures, while Liverpool and Fulham complete the top three. Gameweek 32 won't be in the thinking for those looking to Wildcard that week, however these three teams make the top four when filtering the ticker up to Gameweek 31.</p>

<h2>FPL Gameweek 28 predicted points</h2>
<p>It's been some time since <strong>Mohamed Salah</strong> and <strong>Erling Haaland </strong>have been regularly competing at the top of the Hub AI <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">predicted points</a> chart but that's the case this week, with the FPL legends split by just 0.3.</p>
<p>Liverpool's fixture helps elevate Salah into the top spot, with <strong>Hugo Ekitike </strong>third and <strong>Virgil van Dijk </strong>10th.</p>
<p>City and Haaland travel to Leeds, a match-up which ranks 13th on the ticker.</p>
<p><strong>Igor Thiago </strong>takes fourth ahead of <strong>Bruno Fernandes</strong>.</p>
<div id="attachment_77930" style="width: 850px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-77930" class="size-full wp-image-77930" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/GW28-predicted-points.jpeg" alt="Gameweek 28 predicted points" width="840" height="690" /></p>
<p id="caption-attachment-77930" class="wp-caption-text">Gameweek 28 predicted points</p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Gameweek 28-32 predicted points</h3>
<p>Salah remains top over the next five gameweeks, with Haaland dropping to fifth as a result of his likely blank.</p>
<p>Fernandes, Ekitike and Thiago remain in the top five, making them solid buys or holds in Gameweek 28.</p>
<p>Newcastle defender <strong>Malick Thiaw </strong>is among the names who make the top 10 on both lists. The Magpies have three home games in their next five.</p>

<h2>FPL Gameweek 28 team of the week</h2>
<p>Salah gets the nod in Hub AI's team of the week ahead of Haaland, with a triple up on Liverpool against West Ham too good to ignore.</p>
<p>Since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), Salah has provided three assists, leading his teammates for expected assists (xA).</p>
<p>He has not scored but his xG of 1.23 suggests he has been unfortunate not to find the net. His xG is only bettered in the squad by Ekitike's 2.82.</p>
<p>And while the data isn't nearly as encouraging as it has been in seasons gone by, the fixture is integral to the AI's thinking this week.</p>
<p>Van Dijk meanwhile has returned back-to-back double-digit hauls for his patient owners. No team has conceded more headed attempts than West Ham - and it's not even close.</p>
<p>The Hammers have allowed 102 headed shots, with the next worst being Burnley on 88. Could the Dutchman make it three hauls in a row?</p>
<p>Elsewhere, there's another triple up on Manchester United. <strong>Harry Maguire </strong>takes his place in a back four, with Fernandes and <strong>Bryan Mbeumo </strong>forming an attacking double up.</p>
<p>Two Arsenal, two Newcastle and Brentford frontman Thiago complete the starting 11.</p>

<h2>Hub AI Wildcard team for Gameweek 28</h2>
<p>Haaland makes the Wildcard team ahead of Salah, despite his expected blank and absence from the team of the week.</p>
