What the model recommends

Captain Haaland — a rating of 83/100 makes him the safest armband in gameweek 8, with Saka (73/100) the differential alternative.

The strongest transfer in is Haaland at £15.6, projected 36 points over the following five gameweeks at 71% confidence.

Only take a -4 hit if the incoming player beats your outgoing option by more than four points across your planning horizon.
