FPL GW8 Free Hit – Predicted BEST Team Adjustments
I’ve done an article on the GW8 Free Hit predicted best team using the StrikeEngine FPL tools. You can read it here.
In this article I’m going to be adjusting the team using a new StrikeEngine tool, the Premier League Predicted Result tool. You can see that tool here.
Defenders
These are the predicts best defenders for GW8
In the GW8 Free Hit team we went with Timber, Calafiori, Chalobah, Gabriel and Guehi.
From the predicted result tool, Palace Bournemouth is going to be tight with Bournemouth predicted to get the goal. So maybe Geuhi is not the best choice. Sunderland on paper slightly more even game than Bournemouth Palace, looking at fixture difficulty.
In short, I think Senesi a better pick than Geuhi. And Mukiele or Alderete are also close. Palace are scoring at home, Wolves not as much away. So let’s go with Mukiele over Alderete. Tool recommends this and Alderete is an injury doubt.
Midfielders
If Enzo isn’t a question mark fitness wise, then I think he has to be the choice budget allowing. Kudus has a potentially tough fixture against Villa at home. So swapping Kudus for Enzo seems like a solid move but Enzo coming back from injury, he might not play 90. Gakpo is getting minutes and the Man U fixture should be good, so Gakpo second choice. After that, low price options Okafor and Cullen in that order.
Forwards
I don’t see any reason to make changes here.
Goalkeepers
Roefs and Pope.
