How this XI is picked

Where the eleven comes from

The expected eleven is the same call behind the minutes in every projection on the site. Where the team news is unsettled we say so rather than guessing: a confident XI that turns out wrong costs you a transfer. Until a club’s sheet lands, the eleven shown is FPL’s own record of who started the last game, labelled as such. See what our projections are measured at.
