Watkins might look like the standout option in the striker category, & it’s easy to understand why. He’s got 6 goals in his last 7 games, takes penalties & starts close to every game. His fixture in GW 28...
…is great and he then moves on to a DGW with games against Chelsea & Leicester, both away, which isn’t the easiest double, but still a DGW. An added bonus with Watkins is that his fixtures after GW 29 are good, NFO (H) in GW 30 and then a guaranteed game vs Brentford in BGW 32.
Toney has 15 goals and 3 assists this season, takes penalties, has decent underlying stats & is the talisman for his team, so it’s no surprise that he’s a standout captaincy option in a DGW with games against Everton and Southampton.
Compared to Brighton midfielders though, Toney obviously gets 1 point less per goal and no clean sheet point, which should be factored in. Despite that, he’s of course a great option this week, with 2 games in which he could easily end up scoring 2-3 goals in total.
