Compare My CaptainsSafer Captain GW5
If you want the safer route, start with FFI's current #1 pick: Bogle. “Safer” does not mean guaranteed points; it means the current evidence supports him more strongly than taking extra risk without a good reason.
Differential Captain GW5
A lower-owned captain can move your rank more, but low ownership alone is not a reason to use the armband. Compare the lower-owned choices with Bogle on projected points, fixture, likely minutes and availability first.
Compare captain optionsWho to Captain If Haaland or Salah Doesn't Play in GW5
If Haaland or Salah is ruled out, do not automatically switch to the same backup every week. Check the latest FFI captain pick again: Bogle is #1 on this page right now, but team news can change the answer.
Next fixture
Bogle's next fixture is CRY (H, FDR 3). An easier fixture helps the captain case, but it is only one part of the decision.
What the Captain Score means
The FFI Captain Score is a simple 0–100 summary of how strongly our current data supports the pick. A higher score means the case is stronger, but it is not a percentage chance of scoring and it does not guarantee points. We keep the full weighting model private. Bogle's current score is 77.0/100.
