For those trying out FPL for the first time, GOAL advise players to keep in mind the following ranges when tracking their scores:

“FPL gurus and seasoned managers generally agree that averaging 50-59 points every gameweek is the bare minimum target. A gameweek score between 60-75 points is considered good, and between 76-99 points are excellent. 100 points or more is an outstanding achievement that falls into winner's bracket.

“Using the gameweek's average score as a benchmark is potentially a more effective method since it changes automatically each week and makes it easier to track your progress. By attaining the gameweek's average points throughout the season, you will at least be in the top half by the end of the season.”

You’ll see weekly updates on the Liverpool players bringing in the most points on average, plus the BIG hitters from the other fixtures across the Premier League (watch out for Marcus Tavernier, Wilian and Anthony Gordon this week!).

💬 How many of you - myself included - were left disappointed after Dominic Solanke failed to find the net in such a high-reward fixture?

As ever, we’re supplying weekly form rankings, so you can get an idea of the players that are beginning to hit form at the right moment, hopefully, before their transfer fees soar through the roof!

Cole Palmer or Anthony Gordon? That is the question! The Newcastle man answered it resoundingly Gameweek 13. Congrats again, Mark!

🥈 866 points - Livin’ Lavia Loco (Dominic Bourn)

Oleksandr Zinchenko is quickly becoming a must-have in your FPL team this season - the Ukrainian has a haul of 28 points from his last four games (7 per game).

💬 Is it time to swap Kieran Trippier out for Oleksandr Zinchenko, FPL players? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

🥉 850 points - Tikki takka (Ashley Noble)

The Arsenal defensive connection paid off big time for Ashley - as did the inspired selection call of Alejandro Garnacho following his goal of the season contender
