36. Man vs Machine Learning Gameweek 31: Wildcard Active

Gameweek 30 was a decent one for both teams with scores crossing 60. The gap is still above 200 points with the scores 2016-1801 with just 8 weeks to go. 


This week sees my team playing the wildcard and this could be a huge turning point for where I end up in the overall rankings

 


The Machine's Team

  • Gameweek 30
    • Man City kept clean sheet again, but the rest of the defence disappointed
    • Bamford blanked but the rest of the attack all returned to get a solid score
    • The Machine got a green arrow to go from 777kk to 653k
  • Gameweek 31
    • The suggested transfer is to get Azpilicueta in for Tierney and it has been made
    • The Machine goes 4 at the back this week too, with Cresswell first on the bench
    • Double Man City defence and double Leeds attack still forms the identity of the team
    • Kane is chosen ahead of Fernandes as captain


Expected number of returns for GW 31-34 per position according to the Machine

My Team

  • Gameweek 30
    • Decent gameweek overall, but it could have been much better
    • Alonso hit the post twice but Chelsea somehow conceded five goals
    • Son was benched and so were the City players
    • Raphinha and captain Kane returned in favourable fixtures to get a good score
    • Green arrow from 4.8k to 4.4k
  • Gameweek 31
    • Wildcard is active
    • So far, most of the changes have just been made with price changes in mind but the core of the team is more or less settled
    • Things to keep in mind are the Spurs DGW and the blank in GW 33 for City and Spurs
    • The team looks fairly decent on paper, except for unfavourable fixtures in GW 31
    • A decision has to be made on whether to target someone like Sterling vs Leeds as a one game captainncy punt
    • Captaincy is on Salah for now, but that heavily depends on what the team looks like closer to deadline
