#3 Patrick Bamford (LEE) (FWD)- (£6.2 m) (vs) NEW (H)

Patrick Bamford has been in phenomenal form since the start of the season and has the second-highest threat stats among FPL forwards. Leeds United have been in good form over the last five gameweeks and have been unlucky not to find the net more than four times.

Leeds are in the top four teams in terms of xG stats. However, they have actually underperformed and should do better in upcoming gameweeks.

Bamford is involved in almost all the goals that Leeds score and in a home game against a team like Newcastle, he could really rack up the FPL points.


#2 Kevin De Bruyne (MCI) (MID) - (£11.8 m) (vs) WBA (H)

De Bruyne is a rotation risk but offers great FPL value if he starts.

A home fixture against West Bromwich Albion makes Kevin De Bruyne an enticing FPL captaincy option. The only factor that may work against him is that Pep Guardiola might opt to rest him for this match given the hectic schedule ahead. Having played the full 90 minutes against Manchester United on Saturday, the possibility that he might be rested for a Tuesday night fixture remains high.

However, he is almost assured of getting a huge FPL haul if he starts, given West Brom's defensive frailties. While there is a slight risk in giving him your captain's armband, it could also prove to be very rewarding.


#1 Bruno Fernandes (MUN) (MID) - (£10.9 m) (vs) SHU (A)

Can Fernandes reward his FPL owners with some FPL returns in this Gameweek?

Bruno Fernandes is undoubtedly the top FPL captaincy option for Gameweek 13. He's very likely to start the game, especially since Manchester United plays in the last match of the gameweek on Thursday night.

While the Red Devils have been pretty inconsistent this season, one would back them to perform well against this bottom-of-the-table Sheffield United team.

The fact that it's an away game makes this FPL captaincy decision even more appealing for Fernandes' owners, considering that he's yet to blank in an away game this season.

With everything working in his favor, there's no doubt that Bruno Fernandes is a top captaincy option for this FPL Gameweek.
