<h2>Gameweek 37 review</h2>
<p>Another good week. 131 points was enough for a 41k green arrow!</p>
<p>At 235k now, I'd say Top 100k has gone.</p>
<p>I'm in good company though looking at the Hub Contributor league, with the likes of Jian, Holly, Matthew and even former winner Joshua Bull having similar ranks.</p>
<p>This week I'll just go for gold and see what happens.</p>

<h2>Using FPL Points as a Metric: The data</h2>
<h3>Goalkeepers</h3>
<div id="attachment_64558" style="width: 757px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-64558" class="size-full wp-image-64558" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Screenshot-2024-05-16-at-10.19.17.jpg" alt="" width="747" height="337" /></p>
<p id="caption-attachment-64558" class="wp-caption-text">FPL Points - Goalkeepers</p>
</div>
<p>Fulham, Sheffield United, Manchester United, Brighton and Everton are conceding the most FPL points to opposition goalkeepers.</p>
<p>Arsenal, Liverpool, West Ham, Newcastle and Everton are the teams scoring the most FPL points in this position.</p>
<p>If you need a goalkeeper this week, <strong>David </strong><b>Raya (£5.2m) </b>could be a good option, as Everton have conceded the most FPL points to opposition goalkeepers all season.</p>
<p><strong>Guglielmo Vicario (£5.3m) </strong>is a potential punt, but do we really expect Spurs to keep a clean sheet?</p>
<div id="attachment_64582" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-64582" class="wp-image-64582 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/FFStuffImage-2024-05-16T153311.098.jpg" alt="" width="798" height="650" /></p>

<h3>Defenders</h3>

<p id="caption-attachment-64559" class="wp-caption-text">FPL Points - Defenders</p>
</div>
<p>Brentford, Sheffield United, Fulham, Burnley and Everton are conceding the most FPL points to opposition defenders.</p>
<p>Liverpool, Arsenal, Newcastle, Manchester City and Everton are the teams scoring the most FPL points in the defender position.</p>
<p>Despite Newcastle not being as prolific away from home, they have a decent matchup this week. Spurs and Arsenal also have great matchups at the defender position.</p>
<div id="attachment_64583" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-64583" class="wp-image-64583 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/FFStuffImage-2024-05-16T153517.123.jpg" alt="" width="798" height="650" /></p>

<h3>Midfielders</h3>
<div id="attachment_64560" style="width: 756px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-64560" class="size-full wp-image-64560" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Screenshot-2024-05-16-at-10.20.18.jpg" alt="" width="746" height="336" /></p>
<p id="caption-attachment-64560" class="wp-caption-text">FPL Points - Midfielders</p>
</div>
<p>Luton, Brentford, Burnley, Sheffield United and Bournemouth have conceded the most FPL points to opposition midfielders.</p>
<p>Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and City are the teams scoring the most midfielder FPL points.</p>
<p><strong>Cole Palmer (£6.3m) </strong>is a differential captaincy option this week. Again, Newcastle have a decent fixture, away to Brentford.</p>
<p><strong>Callum Hudson-Odoi (£4.7m) </strong>could be a good enabler this week, coming up against Burnley, who concede the second most FPL Points to opposition midfielders.</p>
<div id="attachment_64580" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-64580" class="wp-image-64580 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/FFStuffImage-2024-05-16T154759.454.jpg" alt="" width="798" height="650" /></p>

<h3>Forwards</h3>
<div id="attachment_64561" style="width: 750px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-64561" class="size-full wp-image-64561" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Screenshot-2024-05-16-at-10.20.41.jpg" alt="" width="740" height="339" /></p>
<p id="caption-attachment-64561" class="wp-caption-text">FPL Points - Forwards</p>
</div>
<p>West Ham, Luton, Nottingham Forest, Brighton, Wolves and Sheffield United are conceding the most FPL points to opposition forwards.</p>
<p>City, Bournemouth, Luton, Burnley and Aston Villa are the teams scoring the most FPL points in the forward position.</p>
<p><b>Erling Haaland (£14.2m) </b>is at home to the team conceding the second most FPL Points to opposition forwards, so he seems a no-brainer for captaincy.</p>
<p><strong>Cody Gakpo (£7.1m) </strong>is a punt for those of you needing a forward this week. I assume he will keep his place for the game against Wolves after 2 goals and an assist in his last 2 games.</p>
<div id="attachment_64581" style="width: 808px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-64581" class="wp-image-64581 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/FFStuffImage-2024-05-16T155239.537.jpg" alt="" width="798" height="650" /></p>

<h3>Points per game</h3>
<p>I use this to check out specific fixtures. It helps with captaincy and double gameweeks.</p>
