FPL SOS

I’ve put together some more fun facts and trends ahead of the GW3 fixtures: • Chelsea have failed to beat in Arsenal 5 years (all comps). • The Chelsea striker also hasn’t managed a goal or assist in the last 10 meetings between the sides (all comps). • Morgan Gibbs-White has an incredible record of getting attacking returns in successive starts. Over the past two seasons, the amount of times MGW had one at least one follow up return: 2024/25: 86% 2025/26: 71% (To explain a bit more, say MGW blanks in 3 games straight but finally gets a return in the fourth game, the likeliness of a follow up return to that is high) • The away side is unbeaten in 4 games between Everton and Man United. • Harry Maguire has hit DEFCON in 4 of his last 5 games against Everton • Dewsbury-Hall hit DEFCON in both fixtures last season. • Newcastle have never kept a CS at home to Bournemouth in the premier league • 3 penalties were awarded across the Brentford vs Sunderland clashes last season. Only one was scored (Le Fee) Both Le Fee and Schade missed penalties. • Igor Thiago scored in both fixtures vs Sunderland last season, including a brace at home. • The away side is unbeaten in 11 matches between Fulham and Crystal Palace. This week was *much* harder to find anything substantial as we have a host of less frequently played matchups! But I was keen to find a few and I hope this is interesting regardless, the feedback on the first one was brilliant! I’ll try to post these weekly when I can!
