Best Captaincy Picks in Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 6

Picking the correct captaincy choice in Fantasy Premier League can be a conundrum. This is because the captain assumes a very important role in the game, as he gets double of whatever points he has in that gameweek. Let us look at some good captaincy options for Gameweek 6.

#5 Cole Palmer

Cole Palmer has established himself as one of the standout captaincy picks in Fantasy Premier League. This season, he has started well, with two goals and four assists in the five games he’s played this season. Palmer is a guarantee for points and he’s Chelsea’s main man. With the Blues facing Brighton this weekend, a high scoring affair is expected. Captaining Palmer could be the way to go.

#4 Jhon Duran

This one is riskiest pick among all the players in this list. Jhon Duran is a firecracker and he is in ridiculous form at the moment. In 5 Premier League matches this season, he has 4 goals, without having started a game. With Aston Villa playing Ipswich this weekend, a start is definitely on the cards and therefore captaining him could be a worthwhile choice. He has been a hit in Fantasy Premier League so far this season.

#3 Luis Diaz

Luis Diaz is a strange one to consider for captaincy. This is because while he is in excellent form, most people would go for Mo Salah as captain from Liverpool. But if you have the Colombian winger in your side, he can be a great differential choice for captaincy. Keep in mind, he is in tremendous form and has already scored 5 times this season and assisted once. Wolves are Liverpool’s opponents this week and they are bottom of the table and Diaz could get big points.

#2 Erling Haaland

Erling Haaland would be first on this list most weeks but Manchester City’s opponent this week are Newcastle and while the Magpies are out of form, they still have some quality. The Norwegian is the first player to reach double digit goals in Europe this season and it has taken him just 5 games. Given the injuries that Newcastle have in defence, Haaland could get a big haul.

#1 Mo Salah

Mo Salah,like Erling Haaland, is on this list nearly every week. This week, he takes the top spot primarily because Liverpool have a weaker opponent in Wolves than City do in Newcastle. There’s no new argument to make for the Egyptian. He has 49 points in 5 games this season, nearly an average of 10 a game. As obvious a captaincy choice, as they come.
