Fantasy Premier League (FPL) is an online game where players from around the world build a team consisting of 15 players. You get to field a team of 11 players each week and choose a captain. You can make transfers every week to bring in new players who seem to be in form. Your players give you points depending on their performance in the game and how crucial they were in helping their team get the result. This article talks about the captaincy picks and the best differential transfers you can do this week to finish at the top.

Erling Haaland has finally returned from injury to try and help Manchester City finish strong towards the end of the season. He returned to the game against Southampton but was unable to help City find a goal, and the game ended 0-0. However, Erling Haaland’s goal-scoring ability cannot be underestimated. While he has not been as good as last season and was even injured for multiple games, Haaland has still managed to score 21 goals and provide three assists this season. It is because of his finishing ability in front of the goal that he is the top candidate for Gameweek 37 of the Fantasy Premier League.
Mohamed Salah has an absolutely incredible record this season and has managed to score 28 goals and provide 18 assists in the Premier League this season. However, Salah has managed to score just one goal and provide just one assist in his last seven games. The Egyptian star seems to have slowed down towards the end of the season now that Liverpool have been confirmed as the champions. However, Salah hopes to finish the season strong when Liverpool faces Brighton in Gameweek 37 of the Fantasy Premier League, which is why he is one of our top captain candidates for this week.

Bryan Mbeumo and Brentford have been in incredible form as of late, and the English club has managed to win each of their last four Premier League games. Mbeumo has scored two goals and provided three assists in his last four Premier League appearances. He is one of the most in-form players right now. Brentford will face Fulham in Gameweek 37 of the Fantasy Premier League, and Mbeumo will hope that he can continue his red-hot form, score some goals, and provide some assists against them. Bryan Mbeumo has been simply incredible in Brentford’s midfield, which is why he is one of the top captain picks for this week.

Cole Palmer has simply not been as good as he was last season, and he has rarely been on the goals lately. Chelsea will face Manchester United in Gameweek 37, and while this would not have been the best matchup, there are two things that are in Chelsea’s favour. One is the fact that Chelsea are currently in a fight for UEFA Champions League qualification and will want to give it their all and win both their remaining games. The other thing in Chelsea’s favour is the fact that Manchester United will surely rest most players as they are playing the Europa League final midweek, which may cause Palmer to end up hauling against them.
Chris Wood and Nottingham Forest are also in the same boat as Chelsea. They are in a severe fight for UEFA Champions League qualification, which is a huge feat for Nottingham Forest, which barely avoided relegation last season. Forest was in an incredible position, but they won just one and drew two of their last six games, and they are now seventh on the table. However, Forest can still qualify for the UCL if they finish strongly, and they will need their star striker, Chris Wood, to start firing again if they are to do so. Wood will face West Ham in Gameweek 37 of the Fantasy Premier League and can easily end up hauling against them.

Kevin Schade has been in incredible form lately and is one of the reasons why Brentford has managed to win each of their last four games. Schade has managed to score four goals in his last three Premier League games, which is why he is one of the top differential picks for this week. Despite his recent form, Schade is owned by just 3.2% of Fantasy Premier League managers and can help you shoot up the ranks. Brentford will face Fulham in Gameweek 37 of the Premier League, and Kevin Schade can easily end up hauling against them.
I seriously can’t think of anyone that deserves the POTS more than Morgan Gibbs-White.
Criminally underrated. What a player 👏 pic.twitter.com/zhREtkq1s3

Morgan Gibbs-White is one of Nottingham Forest’s best players, and while he was out of the goals for quite a while, he seems to have found his form again against Leicester City last week. He scored a goal and provided an assist against Leicester City to help Nottingham Forest salvage a draw and keep their fight for the UEFA Champions League spot alive. Forest face West Ham in Gameweek 37 of the Fantasy Premier League, and Gibbs-White will probably be involved in the goals Forest score. He is owned by just 6.8% of FPL owners, which makes him an incredible differential to have this weekend.
Jamie Vardy will be playing the final few games for Leicester City and has already announced that he will be leaving the club after this season. Vardy has managed to find form as a farewell present for Leicester City fans, scoring one goal and providing one assist in his last two Premier League outings to help Leicester City secure a win against Southampton and a draw against Nottingham Forest. The English striker is owned by just 5.4% of Fantasy Premier League owners and will face Ipswich Town this weekend, which makes him a very lucrative differential pick to have in your team this week.

Jarrod Bowen has a tough fixture against Nottingham Forest coming up, but Jarrod Bowen has been in simply incredible form as of late, which is why he has to be on this list. The English forward has scored three goals and provided two assists in his last four Premier League games. He is arguably the most in-form player in the league at present. Despite his recent form, Jarrod Bowen is owned by just 13% of Fantasy Premier League owners, and while he is no longer an extremely obscure pick, he is still a brilliant differential and one of the must-haves for Gameweek 37 of the Fantasy Premier League.

Beto is another player who has been in very good form in the Premier League as of late. He scored a goal in each of his last two outings and helped Everton attain positive results in both of their last two games. Everton face Southampton in Gameweek 37 of the Fantasy Premier League, the team at the bottom of the table. Everton hopes to finish this season strongly and achieve a good win over Southampton. Beto is owned by just 4.1% of FPL players, which makes him a brilliant differential to have in your team this season, and he will likely end up hauling against Southampton when he faces them this weekend.
