How this XI is picked

Where the eleven comes from

The expected eleven comes from the same predicted-lineup source our projection engine uses to decide who is nailed, so the XI here and the minutes behind every projection on the site are the same call. 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.
