Best FPL Captain for Gameweek 2: Bruno vs Haaland, Palmer, Saka and Isak

PUBLISH GATE: finalise after Fulham vs Chelsea.

Gameweek 2 creates a difficult captaincy decision because fixture quality and GW1 form point in different directions.

Main candidates

• Bruno Fernandes — Ipswich (H), but United failed to score at Hull
• Erling Haaland — Crystal Palace (A), blanked in GW1 but role unchanged
• Cole Palmer — Brighton (H), finalise after Chelsea's GW1 role/minutes
• Bukayo Saka — reliable Arsenal role
• Alexander Isak — Liverpool No.9 evidence, penalty duty now appears to favour Szoboszlai

Rank on

expected minutes, penalties, role, fixture, team attack, ceiling, and ownership/rank risk.

Final output

• safe captain
• highest ceiling
• differential captain
• vice-captain
• OneFPL final captain call
