FPL Captain Picker

Choosing a Fantasy Premier League captain by gut feel means guessing which of your players is most likely to double-score this gameweek. Tactixity's captain picker instead weighs each player's upcoming fixture and recent form to suggest a starting point for your decision.

How it works

Enter your public FPL Manager ID and Tactixity reads your current squad, then ranks your options by expected points based on fixture difficulty and recent form. The result is a suggestion, not a guarantee — the final call, and the risk, is always yours.

Run a free, one-time captain and transfer scan — no account required.
