#3 Timo Werner (CHE) (FWD) - (£9.5 m) (vs) EVE(A)

Timo Werner has been unlucky to get just two assists in the last three Gameweeks. The Chelsea frontman has seen some extraordinary chances come his way but hasn't managed to find the net. He has a great conversion rate and should start to find the net soon.

That prospect makes him a great FPL captaincy option in this Gameweek. That's because Chelsea's opponents Everton have been very leaky at the back and are in the bottom five when it comes to xGA (Expected Goals against).

Given how Chelsea have been playing, Werner should get plenty of goal-scoring chances. He's likely to score and get a good FPL haul this week.


#2 Son Heung-Min (TOT) (MID) - £9.5 m (vs) CRY(A)

The in-form Son Heung-Min will be a great FPL option to give your captain's armband to. He has a good record against the Eagles and has scored three times against them in three starts.

He has also been in phenomenal form this season and became the first player to cross 100 FPL points after his goal and assist against Arsenal in Gameweek 11.

Spurs have been tactically brilliant this season and have altered between an attacking and defensive set-up against different teams. This game is likely to see them taking the front foot and with Son in such good form, he's a great FPL captaincy option.


#1 Mohamed Salah (LIV) (MID) - £12.3 m (vs) FUL(A)

Mohamed Salah is among the top FPL captaincy options for this Gameweek, if not the best. His explosive points potential and good form make him a very dependable FPL option to have in your team. He scored and set up a goal in Gameweek 11 on the way to a 14-point FPL haul, and he'll look to carry on that form into the next Gameweek.

While he isn't a prolific scorer in away matches, Salah has done better in such games this season. He has four goals and one assist in five games, which isn't a bad stat at all. Playing for an in-form Liverpool team, Salah is a great FPL captaincy option.
