In Game week 31, my prediction on EPL results and the players who could make a difference were empathic.

Check the FPL score sheet below which illustrates my team’s performance over four gameweeks:-




Now, here I am, back with the predictions for this game week. Remember, it will not be a wise decision to change most of your players at this point of time, unless you haven’t still used your wild card. But, since you get a free substitution every game week, you might want change one or two in your team.

Aston Villa V West Ham 18 Apr 15:00

I believe Aston Villa will win this game easily given their goal-form. Select Milner if you want to. He normally plays the full 90 minutes and takes free-kicks.

Prediction: 2-0 to Aston Villa.


Middlesbrough V Fulham 18 Apr 15:00

If there is anyone you need to pick from these two sides, it is Mark Schwarzer, the goalkeeper of Fulham. He has done outstandingly well and is a good buy. I wouldn’t select Dempsey now but if you already have him, play him.

Prediction: 1-0 to Fulham.


Portsmouth V Bolton 18 Apr 15:00

Somehow Portsmouth doesn’t appeal to me at all. I tried using a lot of players from Portsmouth initially but they disappointed me. Crouch at 8.0 is an expensive buy. However, for FPL sake, you can gamble on him or Kranjcar because Portsmouth is playing two matches this game week.

From Bolton, Kevin Davies is playing well and you might want to consider him.

Prediction: 1-1

Stoke City V Blackburn 18 Apr 15:00

Stoke City and Blackburn. It is very difficult to predict the results here.
It is advisable to avoid players from either team now.

Prediction: A lucky win for Stoke 1-0.


Sunderland V Hull City 18 Apr 15:00

I believe this match will be played with full of aggression and will. It is a must-win situation for both these teams. I am expecting a few red-cards.

Prediction: Could go either way. 2-1


Tottenham V Newcastle 19 Apr 13:30

Close your eyes and select Aaron Lennon, if you haven’t already. This guy is fast and a threat to every defense. Keane at 8.9 is pretty expensive.

Do not select any player from Newcastle.

Prediction: 3-1 for Tottenham.


Man City V West Brom 19 Apr 15:00

Select Ireland from Manchester City. He works hard and can get lucky goals for you.

Prediction: 2-0 for Manchester City.


Liverpool V Arsenal 21 Apr 20:00

A cracker here…
I would favor Arsenal over Liverpool because I can see the rejuvenated force in Arsenal again.
Select Arshavin, Bendtner, Gerrard. However, do not be disappointed if Arsene doesn’t let your player play the full 90 minutes. Remember, he has an arsenal of forwards.

Prediction: Arsenal will beat Liverpool 3-1.


Chelsea V Everton 22 Apr 20:00

Select Lampard and Baines. Remember, all free kicks or corners are taken by these two. Expect something to happen. And choose Lampard as your captain. The graph below will tell you why:-


Prediction: 3-1 for Chelsea.


Man Utd V Portsmouth 22 Apr 20:00

FPL is about gambling so let Macheda be a third time winner. Select Vidic because he has been pretty impressive overall. Remember, form is temporary but class is permanent.

Prediction: 3-0 for Manchester United.
