Crazy scores in Gameweek 38 of previous seasons
Analyzing gameweeks 38 from the previous 7 seasons, we noticed that we use to see a lot more goals in the last gameweek of the season. Here are the data:
| Season | Average number of goals in GW1-37 | Number of goals in GW38 | The craziest score | Players with 3 goal involvement |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2017/18 | 26,68 | 31 | Tottenham 5:4 Leicester | Mahrez (1G+2A) |
| 2018/19 | 28 | 36 | Crystal Palace 5:3 Bournemouth | Zaha (3A) |
| 2019/20 | 27,08 | 33 | Manchester City 5:0 Norwich | De Bruyne (2G+1A), Aubameyang (2G+1A) |
| 2020/21 | 26,89 | 31 | Leicester 2:4 Tottenham | Fornals (2G+1A) |

| 2024/25 | 29.49 | ? | ? | ? |
Gameweeks 38 from the previous 7 seasons were high scoring, with at least 4 more goals than the average goals per gameweek. We saw some crazy matches there and (except two seasons) players who registered 3 goals involvement.
Will history repeat in GW38 of 2024/25?
We think so.
FPL GW38 Tips
Our tips for Gameweek 38:
- Pick players from teams that still have something to play for
- Pick attacking players, if we are going to see a lot of goals, you want not just attacking mids and forwards, but also attacking defenders
- If you have nothing to lose, and your mini-leagues are decided, take -4 or -8 hit to bring in players you think have high potential to score 10+ points
- If you have nothing to lose, Cunha, Merino, Bowen could be great differentials
- Target Ipswich vs. West Ham game, Southampton vs. Arsenal, Wolves vs. Brentford and Newcastle vs. Everton. We think that these are the games where the most points are going to be.
- Differential captain for Gamewek 38: Bowen
- Expect the unexpected, it is going to be a crazy gameweek.
- One player will highly likely register 3 goals involvements, try to estimate who that is and bring him in (it could easily be Bowen, Saka…).
- It is the last gameweek of the season, enjoy it
