VII) Family
Leicester assets are proving popular for their favourable run of games. Lee compares their top two assets, but one is flagged with illness and the other has had off-pitch shenanigans to deal with.#Vardy v #Maddison ?
— FPL Family (Lee) (@FPLFamily) October 7, 2019
xG: 1.96 v 1.95
Goals: 5 v 2
Base bps: 14 v 50
Mins per Attempt: 55 v 30
Accuracy: 54% v 19%
Mins per Chance Created: 180 v 57
Corners taken: 0 v 45
Vardy fewer, but more accurate attempts. Maddison high assist & bonus potential.

VIII) Luke
Luke has provided some interesting facts to digest over the International Break. There’s plenty of cheap players who are out-performing our premium options.Some fun FPL facts:

Wesley has the same points as TAA.
Jordan Ayew has the 4th highest bonus point return in the game.
Pereira is the joint highest scoring def in the game.
David Silva has 3 double digit hauls, Sterling has 1.
IX) Statman
There’s plenty of great value options at Chelsea, with many managers considering a triple up. Premier League Statman presents a convincing argument for Abraham and Hudson-Odoi.Callum Hudson-Odoi has either scored or assisted in every appearance for Chelsea this season
