The best three Chelsea players for Gameweek 37

Last modified date

We pick out the best three Chelsea players for Gameweek 37 in Fantasy Premier League. With the help of the Fantasy Football Scout members area we can utilise its fixture ticker and underlying stats to some to a conclusion.

Chelsea have surprised everyone this season and their assets have become some of the most avoided in the game. For those looking to go differential, finding the best three Chelsea players for Gameweek 37 could be key.

Gameweek 37

We can see from the graphic below that Chelsea face Manchester City and Manchester United in their double Gameweek. This is an early indicator that their assets could be considered in terms of transfers.

The opponents

Man City – After a brilliant season Man City sit top of the league. Offensively, in the last six Gameweeks they rank the fifth best for expected goals scored (12.70). Defensively, in the same period they are also the best for expected goals conceded (5.47).

Man United – It has been a very good campaign for Man United so far as they sit amongst the top four in the league. Offensively, in the last six Gameweeks they rank sixth best for expected goals scored (12.57). Defensively, in the same period they sit sixth for expected goals conceded (7.70).

The Chelsea defence

Seasonal stats – This season amongst all teams in the league Chelsea rank joint sixth for clean sheets (10), fifth best for expected goals conceded (45.28), joint seventh best for shots on target conceded (144) and joint fifth best for big chances conceded (64).

Last six Gameweek stats – In the last six matches when compared to every other team Chelsea rank around mid-table for expected goals conceded (8.43), joint worst for clean sheets kept (zero), seventh best for shots on target conceded (26) and mid-table best for big chances conceded (13).

The Chelsea attack

Season stats – This season amongst all teams Chelsea rank the eighth worst for expected goals scored (44.62), mid-table for big chances total (64) and mid-table for shots on target (139).

Last six Gameweek stats – In the last six matches amongst all teams Chelsea rank second worst for expected goals scored (5.09), third worst for big chances total (seven) and joint third worst for shots on target (21).

Conclusion

Chelsea have maintained some average to poor stats this season in general. This suggests that avoiding their assets could be very beneficial moving forward. However, it is a double Gameweek so for those interested, there are several assets managers could move to.

The best three Chelsea players for Gameweek 37

  • Raheem Sterling (£9.7m) – The midfielder looks fit again after a recent dip. Sterling also managed a colossal 15-point haul in his most recent match because of his brace. He also edges his offensive opponents for non-penalty expected goal involvement in the last six matches (1.17).
  • Trevoh Chalobah (£4.4m) – The English centre-back has been converted into a right-back under Frank Lampard. The youngster has also started the last two matches for Chelsea and at just £4.4m, he could be a great buy.
  • Noni Madueke (£5.4m) – For managers unprepared to spend bags of money on a Chelsea differential then Madueke could be the pick. Not only has he started the last three league matches but he also scored in one of his most recent matches against Arsenal.
