How did you do against the Fantasy Premier League experts in Gameweek 27?

The FPL Experts Panel team is run by some of the best Fantasy managers in the world.

But despite an above-average 48 points, the experts slipped 18,019 places in the overall standings.

Defensive duo deliver 

Liverpool defenders continue to supply a steady stream of points for the experts' team.

Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.7m) set up two goals as the Reds came from behind to beat West Ham United 3-2 at Anfield on Monday.

On the opposite flank, Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) produced his seventh assist of the campaign.

The experts have gained 77 points from their Liverpool full-backs since doubling up in Gameweek 23.

Captain fantastic

The Panel team joined a record 2.18million FPL managers in trusting Mohamed Salah (£12.8m) with the captain's armband.

And the Egyptian did not disappoint, scoring his 15th goal of the season for a 14-point return as captain.

Elsewhere, Neal Maupay (£5.8m) equalised for Brighton & Hove Albion as they drew 1-1 at Sheffield United, helping him collect the maximum three bonus points.

For Gameweek 28 the experts may well decide to play their Wildcard.

Six of their players are without a fixture due to the EFL Cup final, while three more are uncertain to feature in their team's starting XI. 

Join to beat them

The team fell to 565,944 in the overall standings and are now ranked 18,542nd out of 51,353 in the "Beat the FPL Panel" mini-league.

The league remains the second best in the world, with the top five teams averaging 1,715.4 points.

Top for the fifth successive Gameweek, Andrew Burguiere extended his lead to 49 points.

His team, The Klopp End, racked up an impressive 72 points in Gameweek 27, taking him up one place to fourth overall.

Up front for Andrew, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10.9m) scored twice as Arsenal earned a 3-2 comeback win over Everton.

The Gabon international is now level with Jamie Vardy (£9.7m) in the race for the Golden Boot award with 17 goals.
