MAYBE

It depends - Calafiori is a reasonable option but not the obvious armband choice this week.

  • Form: 5.3 pts/game over the last 5 gameweeks - moderate returns
  • Fixture: Nott'm Forest (A) in GW7 - a workable fixture
  • Ownership: 51.8% - blanking carries a significant rank cost

Why Calafiori may not be the best captain in Gameweek 7

The case for

  • Fixture: Nott'm Forest (A) in GW7 is workable - not elite, but not a reason to avoid him.
  • Expected points: 5.3 xPts for GW7 - a solid projected return.

The case against

  • Form: only 5.3 pts/game over the last 5 gameweeks - returns have been below the level expected for a captain pick.
  • Ownership: 51.8% means blanking carries a serious rank cost, but that is not the same as being the best captain pick.
  • Returns: 1 goal and 2 assists this season - the volume has not been there.
