Here are the best players for FPL Double Gameweek 25 using Fantasy Football Hub’s AI-predicted points. If you’re struggling to settle on which FPL move to make, get your AI-recommended transfers right here!
Defence: Alisson Becker - 8.6 points
Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold is an injury doubt going into Liverpool’s second Double Gameweek in as many weeks, which has changed up our viewpoint on their best defensive targets, with AI marginally favouring goalkeeper Alisson over the right-back and Virgil Van Dijk.
In points per match term, Alisson remains among the top goalkeepers in the game, with only Newcastle United’s Martin Dubravka and understudy Caoimhin Kelleher boasting a better points per match record than Alisson’s 4.5 this season. He has a high price tag though, with a looming blank in Gameweek 29.
Liverpool have kept a leading tally of 10 clean sheets this season, this includes two clean sheets in their last four league games at the time of writing. They kept a clean sheet in the reverse fixture against Aston Villa. Backing Arne Slot as assistant manager provides a higher ceiling than getting Becker.
Midfield: Mohamed Salah - 15.6 points
Mohamed Salah leads the overall AI rankings going into Double Gameweek 25 as Liverpool host Wolves, before travelling to Aston Villa. He has the highest AI prediction of any player so far this season, bettering the high standard set for him in Double Gameweek 25.
Liverpool’s failure to progress past the fourth round of the FA Cup means that this will likely be the final opportunity to deploy the Triple Captain chip on Salah in a Double Gameweek this season and he’s still averaging more than 10 points per game in this campaign.
Salah has three goals from his last four league games as things stand going into the Everton game, plus 12 double-digit hauls this season. Two of those came in the reverse fixtures against both Wolves and Aston Villa, where he netted a total of 24 points across the two games.
Attack: Cody Gakpo - 9.9 points
Liverpool’s Cody Gakpo remains a popular acquisition ahead of Liverpool’s second Double Gameweek, as one of their most in-form players alongside Mohamed Salah, with two goals and two assists in his last four league games at the time of writing.
Gakpo is a clear favourite of Arne Slot’s, starting 12 consecutive games in the league, where he’s produced seven goals and three assists, with two double-digit hauls in this time. We expect him to continue to see significant minutes, despite the quick turnaround times between games.
There should be plenty of opportunities for further attacking returns for Gakpo against both Wolves and Aston Villa defences. Wolves have conceded seven goals in the last four Gameweeks. Aston Villa face a defensive injury crisis going into this, with Cash, Konsa, Pau and Mings among the potential absentees.
Hidden Gem: Dominik Szoboszlai - 8.6 points
There’s no opportunity for Aston Villa assets to be considered here, given the high ownership of the most purchased players Morgan Rogers and Ollie Watkins, plus major minutes concern for Marcus Rashford who hasn’t started a game since mid-December.
When it comes to a differential among Liverpool’s ranks, the AI predictions are in favour of Dominik Szoboszlai, who comes in at a budget-friendly £6.3 million and is a differential too, in less than 3% of sides. He’s started all of Liverpool’s games in the last four Gameweeks.
In this time, his standout performance came in the 4-1 win against Ipswich Town, where he notched a goal and an assist to take him up to nine attacking returns for the season. He is an explosive player, registering three double-digit hauls in this campaign.
