Brentford’s busy upcoming schedule gives their talisman the opportunity to continue his prolific campaign in Fantasy.

The Bees are the only side to have five matches scheduled in the next three Gameweeks.

They have a Double Gameweek 27 and Double Gameweek 29 either side of a home fixture against Leicester City in Blank Gameweek 28.

Toney visits Everton and Southampton in Gameweek 27 off the back of his 15th goal of the campaign.

His strike against Fulham on Monday evening earned him eight points, taking his tally to 130 points for 2022/23.

Having also assisted three goals, Toney’s total of 18 goal involvements this term has already surpassed his 17 from 2021/22, when he produced 12 goals and five assists.

Managers have rushed to snap up Toney ahead of Saturday’s 11:00 GMT deadline.

He is the most-bought forward and second most-bought player in the Gameweek overall, brought in by 240,000+ new owners.

As evidenced against Fulham, Toney also has penalty and free-kick duties to increase his prospects. He converted his spot-kick against the Cottagers and hit the woodwork with a free-kick.

The underlying numbers also show Toney's all-round potential.

His 66 shots, 50 shots in the box and 29 shots on target are all team-leading totals, while his 26 big chances are more than twice the tally of any team-mate.

Furthermore, his nine big chances created also place top for Brentford this season.

With his potential for goals and assists, Toney can richly reward his owners over the coming period, and he is a strong contender for the Double Gameweek 27 captaincy.
