<h2>How did the AI team perform in Gameweek 15?</h2>
<p><strong>Points: </strong>67</p>
<p><strong>FPL average: </strong>50</p>
<p>The AI team article was published before news of the Everton v Liverpool postponement, leaving a large gap in the starting 11.</p>
<p>But despite this, the AI team still outperformed the FPL average, thanks to a massive haul from <strong>Cole Palmer</strong> and returns from <strong>Son Heung-min</strong>, <strong>Chris Wood </strong>and <strong>Yoane Wissa</strong>.</p>

<h2>FPL Gameweek 16: The fixtures</h2>
<p>Eight teams have a green-rated fixture on the Hub's <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fixture-ticker">ticker</a> this week, indicating the potential for a high-scoring gameweek.</p>
<p>All of these teams carry a level of fantasy interest.</p>
<p>Newcastle and Wolves top the ticker with Leicester and Ipswich at home respectively - two teams which rank in the bottom three for expected goals conceded (xGC).</p>
<p>There are also favourable fixtures for Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool and choosing the best captain this week could therefore be a challenging task.</p>

<h2>FPL Gameweek 16 best players: Predicted points</h2>
<p><strong>Cole Palmer</strong> tops the Hub AI <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">predicted points</a> chart this week, marginally ahead of <strong>Mohamed Salah </strong>and <strong>Erling Haaland</strong>.</p>
<p>With the fixtures strong for all of the top five, there is just a single predicted point between them all.</p>
<p>Palmer has the edge over the rest amid Chelsea hosting Brentford at the weekend.</p>
<p>The contrast between Brentford's home and away stats is stark. While it's their goalscoring and expected goals (xG) that falls most dramatically on the road, they also suffer defensively.</p>
<p>They have recorded the third worst xGC per game in the league away from home (2.0), compared to 1.3 at the Gtech Community Stadium.</p>
<p>Fresh from an 18 point haul, Palmer is well placed to carry on where he left off.</p>
