Starting with captain choices, Sterling, Serg, Mane & Pogbw are the bookies picks. Notably down the list is Salah- this is because FPL have him yellow flagged, he'll be right up there if confirmed 100%

Luck
Manchester City fan, Karam, produced a popular debate this week on how luck and statistics produce outcomes in the FPL game. It was certainly one that got the community talking going into the last gameweek of the season.
#FPL is game of luck, and we do research to maximize the probability. This doesn't mean you will get results, so when you have a good GW, you will probably say: "Research/Patience/Faith paid off" while if you have a bad GW, you will probably say: I was unlucky#FPLCommunity (1/x)

Injuries
There was important injury news provided by expert Ben Dinnery this week. Despite suffering from concussion last weekend, Mo Salah is expected to be fit for the final Gameweek of the season.
Mo Salah (concussion) has been running outside and he will take part in full training. Looks good for Sunday. Firmino (groin) is struggling – likely to miss out again – but should be fine for the Champions League final. #LFC

Differential
With only one round of games to go, a differential and even a captaincy differential could provide managers with their last roll of the dice as they push for a mini league or overall rank target. Neil provides an intriguing suggestion for the Gameweek 38 tips.
0) If you, like me, are looking for a differential captaincy option in GW38, then I think I may have found just the man for us: Callum Wilson
Here's why I'm strongly considering him for the armband…
