Points: 92 · FPL avg: 60 · vs avg: +32 · Cumulative: +143 · Predicted: 70.2 xPts · Chip: TC · Hits: 1 · Bank: £1.9m · FT: 2
The model projected 70.2 points but the squad delivered 92, a 21.8-point outperformance driven almost entirely by the Triple Captain chip on Semenyo, whose 18-point haul translated to 54 with the multiplier applied. Outside that single decision, the gameweek was underwhelming: six of eleven starters scored 3 or fewer points, with Anthony, Anderson, Mateta, and Senesi all badly missing their xPts projections. The one hit taken to bring in Mateta over João Pedro produced just 2 points against a projected 5.7, compounding the midfield underperformance, though the Gabriel and Pope transfers both beat expectation and partially offset the damage.
