Player v: GW22 match-winner De Bruyne backed to continue vs Southampton
Player v Opposition: This looks at the next opponent of Fantasy Premier League’s (FPL) top players, assessing whether they have a good or bad record against them.
Of course, it’s just for fun and doesn’t take into account factors such as the player moving clubs. 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 could be useful information for the FPL community.
(NB. Premier League matches only. Cristiano Ronaldo isn’t included because his 2003-09 appearances were too long ago to be relevant)
- Kevin De Bruyne has four double-digit returns versus Southampton.
- Josh King grabbed two assists in Watford’s Gameweek 5 meeting with Norwich.
- During Liverpool’s 7-0 win at Crystal Palace last season, Roberto Firmino ended with 16 points.
- Harry Kane has one goal from his last nine league appearances against Chelsea.
