@FPLReaction' first FPL draft

Which players enjoy facing their GW29 FPL opponent?

Last modified date

Looking at the next FPL opponent of various players to assess whether their record is good or bad against them.


Player vs FPL opponent

Here is the data on how attacking FPL assets usually fare against their next opponents. Clearly a lot can change in the years since Striker A scored a hat-trick against Team B. However, if a player enjoys playing at a certain ground against a particular centre back, that is useful information.

Despite this, Cristiano Ronaldo isn’t included because his 2003-09 appearances were too long ago to be relevant.

Points of interest

Last season, Diogo Jota scored twice in a 29-minute cameo at Arsenal. And he scored two more there in January’s EFL Cup semi-final.

His last two trips to Brighton brought nine and 13 points.

Mo Salah has never blanked away at the Seagulls, with 18-point and 11-point hauls included.

Sticking with Liverpool, Roberto Firmino hasn’t scored in his last four against Arsenal but has five double-digit returns from the seven meetings before.

Let’s not leave Sadio Mane out, who scored and assisted against Arsenal in Gameweek 12.

Although Raul Jimenez is seemingly out of favour at Wolves, he has scored one goal each time he has faced Everton.

Jamie Vardy has five goals from seven games when visiting Arsenal.

In Gameweek 10, Wilfried Zaha netted his only ever goal against Man City.

Tottenham’s Son Heung-min had a great time at Man United last season, grabbing a pair of goals and assists in the 6-1 win.

In that same match, Harry Kane scored a brace and finished on 16 points.
