<h2>Who has the best fixtures from FPL Gameweek 5?</h2>
<p>Aston Villa remain top of the Hub's <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fixture-ticker">fixture ticker</a> for the next five gameweeks, with both their home and away games looking good for fantasy returns.</p>
<p>Liverpool were second last week but have now dropped to 17th with one of their two successive home games out of the way. Chelsea and Arsenal fixtures in the latter part of this period dents their appeal.</p>
<p>Brentford's strong run comes into view from Gameweek 6, while Everton will hope improved fixtures bring better results.</p>
<p>Manchester City are creeping up the ticker and will continue to rise after their home game against Arsenal this weekend.</p>
<p>The Gunners make a Gameweek 5 Wildcard tricky to navigate.</p>
<p>An Arsenal triple up will be a popular strategy come Gameweek 6 but it will be tough to justify this week given their fixture. Many managers will be holding out for another week as a result.</p>

<h2>Best FPL Wildcard team for Gameweek : Predicted points</h2>
<p>There was just 0.5 <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">predicted points</a> separating <strong>Mohamed Salah </strong>and <strong>Erling Haaland </strong><a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/best-fpl-wildcard-team-for-gameweek-4-hub-ai">last week</a>, with the Liverpool midfielder topping the chart.</p>
<p>The pair remain the leading options, although Haaland has taken back top spot with a lead of 3.3.</p>
<p>The fixtures between Gameweek 7 and 9 - Fulham (H), Wolves (A) and Southampton (H) - look particularly appealing for the Norwegian.</p>
<p><strong>Cole Palmer</strong>, <strong>Bukayo Saka</strong> and <strong>Eberechi Eze </strong>continue to make up the rest of the top five, although Palmer has leapt from fifth to third. Less than two predicted points separates the trio.</p>
<p><strong>Ollie Watkins </strong>scored a brace in Gameweek 4 and he has shot up the ranks into sixth, making him the next best forward after Haaland.</p>
<p>And while there was just room for <strong>Andrew Robertson </strong>in the top 20 last week, there's no place for defenders this time.</p>
<p>Thirteen midfielders and seven forwards show the AI's firm belief that investing in attack is the way forward for those on Wildcard.</p>
