The best FPL captain this week comes from Chelsea as they face a Burnley side that has conceded a league-high 32 goals away from home. That is nearly three goals per game - so who do you choose out of Cole Palmer and Joao Pedro? If you own both, this is an near-impossible choice but I've gone for Palmer here with penalties adding to his potential. It means no place for Erling Haaland this week - the re-emergence of expensive midfielders such as Palmer means tough choices. Don't miss our FPL special Q&A with expert FPL Heisenberg, live on the BBC Sport website on Friday, 20 February at 15:30 GMT.
