<p>Playing the Triple Captain chip triples your Fantasy Premier League captain&#8217;s points, rather than doubling them. You can only use it once per season.</p>
<p>If <strong>Mohamed Salah</strong> scores 16 points as his base score, he would earn 32 points as your captain.</p>
<p>With the Triple Captain chip activated, Salah&#8217;s score would multiply by three to 48 points overall.</p>
<h2>How do you use the Triple Captain chip in FPL?</h2>
<p>To use the chip, click on the bar under Triple Captain and save your team to confirm the change. The captaincy logo (c) next to your chosen player&#8217;s name will turn from black to white.</p>

<p>Just like the <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/what-is-the-fpl-bench-boost-and-when-to-use-it">Bench Boost</a>, the Triple Captain can be cancelled so if you activate it, you are always able to revert your decision.</p>
<p>The other two chips, the <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/what-is-the-fantasy-premier-league-wildcard-and-when-to-use-it">Wildcard </a>and <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/what-is-the-free-hit-chip-in-fpl-and-how-can-we-use-it">Free Hit</a>, are irreversible once played.</p>
<h2>When should you activate the FPL Triple Captain chip?</h2>
<p>The introduction of chips such as Triple Captain, Bench Boost and Free Hit has changed the way in which we approach FPL. Like most chips, the Triple Captaincy is often used in a <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/double-gameweek-in-fantasy-premier-league">double gameweek</a> when a team has two matches within a gameweek.</p>
<p>You can identify the best Triple Captaincy options for each gameweek by using our <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">predicted points tool</a>.</p>
