16. Man vs Machine Learning - Virus Postponement Hits Teams Hard

The Machine has slightly extended its lead on my team again to 11 points now after a decent gameweek for both the teams.

 The Machine's Team

• Gameweek 10
• Vardy captain with a late assist bailed the team out
• Bowen and Grealish got massive hauls on the last day as well
• Bruno continues to bag the points
• Green arrow from 625k to 402k

• Gameweek 11
• Grealish stays in the team despite no game
• Digne injury means Walker comes in for him
• No Salah still
• Vardy is captain again vs Sheffield
• One disclaimer with this week's predictions is that due to the blank that Villa has, their next 4 gameweels have only 3 opponents. This means that the goals scored by their opponents in the last four gameweeks is lesser than expected, so it assumes that they are weak attackers (but it's actually because they have played only 12 games compared to 16 by the other teams' opponents). This will be fixed in the next update. So those defenders with a blank gameweek coming up are boosted up and those attackers with a blank gameweek are pushed down. 

Expected number of returns for the next 4 Gameweeks per position according to the Machine

My Team

• Gameweek 10
• Ended up doing Son to Salah and captaining him
• Salah, KdB and Rashford should really have done better but they all returned at least
• Bamford and Watkins were really unlucky not to score. Robertson lost his clean sheet late too.
• In the end, Chilwell and Dallas returned to take the team to a fairly decent 60 points
• Green arrow from 690k to 590k

• Gameweek 11
• I did Rashford to Bruno on Monday night assuming only 3 days were left and nothing much would change
• With triple Villa, I was forced into taking a hit. Adams comes in for Watkins
• KdB has the armband
