<h2><strong>Best FPL captain for Double Gameweek 25: The candidates</strong></h2>
<p>We smashed it last week with 13 points for our top pick. This week, several of us will be considering using our Triple Captain chip. Is it a no-brainer who to go for or is there a dark horse? These are the main candidates:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Diogo Jota (£8.2m) </strong>v Brentford (A) | Luton (H)</li>
<li><strong>Darwin Nunez (£7.6m)</strong> v Brentford (A) | Luton (H)</li>
<li><strong>Erling Haaland (£14.4m)</strong> v Chelsea v (H) | Brentford (H)</li>
<li><strong>Kevin De Bruyne (£10.8m)</strong> v Chelsea (H) | Brentford (H)</li>
<li><strong>Phil Foden (£8.0m) </strong>v Chelsea (H) | Brentford (H)</li>
</ul>

<h2 style="text-align: left;">Best FPL captain for Double Gameweek 25: Players' records</h2>
<p>Haaland hauled in the reverse fixture against Chelsea and that should be given more weighting, as it's more recent. He only got an assist in the previous fixture against Brentford but that was his first start post-injury.</p>
<p>De Bruyne blanked in the away game against Chelsea last season, didn't start in the home game and scored in the home game the season prior. He's only blanked once against Brentford.</p>
<p>Foden has blanked his last five matches against Chelsea, although they were a bogey side under Thomas Tuchel and things are different now. He bagged a hat-trick in the reverse game against Brentford and scored against them at home last season.</p>
<p>Jota scored in the reverse fixture against Brentford and the last time he started against them away.</p>
<p>Nunez picked up an assist in the reverse fixture against Brentford but blanked both games last season.</p>
