FPL Show Ep 31: State of Play

Fixtures have made AFC Bournemouth one of the most attractive teams for Fantasy Premier League managers and their 2-0 win at Huddersfield Town on Saturday will only have piqued their interest even more.

On the latest FPL Show, filmed ahead of Saturday’s victory, the AFC Bournemouth assets were assessed by former FPL champion Ben Crabtree.

Despite the team's recent indifferent form, FPL managers have been alerted to seven of their nine fixtures from Gameweeks 30to 38 having a rank of just two in the Fixture Difficulty Rankings.

One of the big targets will be forward Callum Wilson (£6.3m), whose six-match absence through injury led to a drop in price.

"A great price now and with being out, he will be mentally refreshed," Crabtree said on the show.

"He’s had his best-ever season for goals. He's on 10 goals and will be thinking, 'Can I get to 15?'

"So he will be looking for a strong finish to the season."

And Wilson hit the ground running on Saturday, bagging his 11th goal of the season at the John Smith’s Stadium as well as an assist, delivering an 11-point return.
