Not making the correct captaincy choice can cost you a lot of points in Fantasy Premier League. Gameweek 7 is here and along with it are several interesting fixtures. Here are the best captaincy options for you in Fantasy Premier League this gameweek.
5. Kai Havertz
Kai Havertz has been among Arsenal’s most important players this season. With a goal each in his last 3 games across competitions, the German is in great form. He has 3 goals and an assist in the league already. With Arsenal’s opponents this weekend being a lowly Southampton side, this will only increase. Captaining him could lead to a big haul this weekend, although a potentially unpopular one.
4. Mo Salah
As usual, Mo Salah is in breathtaking form. The goalscoring and the creative numbers are high as ever for the Egyptian. 4 goals and 4 assists have already come in 6 league games. There has also been at least one goal contribution in each of his last 4 games in all competitions. Crystal Palace have been a shadow of themselves this season so far and by captaining Salah on Fantasy Premier League, you can benefit from their issues.

3. Erling Haaland
Ever since he has made his way to England, Erling Haaland has been the most popular captaincy choice in Fantasy Premier League. This is for good reason, as he scores at a ridiculously high rate. The Manchester City striker already has 10 league goals this season, higher than anyone else in Europe. Fulham are City’s opponents this week but Haaland is a low-risk captaincy option no matter who the opponent is.
2. Cole Palmer
Cole Palmer has been ridiculously good. While many would have considered last season to be a freak one as he had 33 goal contributions in the league. He has proven all of them wrong with 10 already this season. 4 goals came in the first half of last week’s game against Brighton and there’s nothing to suggest that another big Fantasy Premier League haul isn’t coming. Hence captaining him could be the way to go.

1. Bukayo Saka
Southampton have been extremely poor this season and Arsenal have been anything but and thus Bukayo Saka takes the top spot in this list. The winger has been talismanic for the Gunners over the last two seasons and this one hasn’t been any different, with him having 6 goal contributions already. If Arsenal put a hapless Southampton side to the sword, expect Saka to feast.
