This Week on FootballPX
We’ve reached the business end of the football season — when the biggest games produce the biggest performances.
This week we’re focusing solely on the upcoming round of games, breaking down the form and fixtures to identify the players most likely to claim Player of the Week (POTW) and unlock payouts for you.
🔎 Spotlight – Solving the Riddle of This Gameweek
Where to start? Look for teams with double gameweeks — particularly those still involved in European knockout competitions, as they’ll have more opportunities to rack up performance points.
One thing to watch: squad rotation. Teams with their league positions largely secured — such as Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid — or sides with comfortable cup fixtures (apologies, Mansfield) like Arsenal, may rotate heavily. That can make predicting minutes a little trickier.
So who stands out? Clubs still with plenty to play for include Liverpool, Betis, Roma, Stuttgart, Fiorentina and Strasbourg — all of whom could offer strong Player of the Week (POTW) candidates.
Caveat: If you can identify players likely to start both fixtures for teams like Atletico, Bayern or Arsenal, you could be in a very strong position. These sides combine high match weightings with very favourable double gameweeks, which could translate into big scores.

A tricky week to navigate with no Premier League. FA Cup last 16 matches weighted at 0.75 puts English football at the bottom of the domestic pecking order – to get a payout this week will take top footballing foresight!
