So it was a week of ups and downs in the Telegraph Fantasy Football, lucky it’s an international break now!
Either way we have plenty of time to get ourselves together and build back better. We have even refined the model further to give more accurate results and fixture predictions for our TFF GW4 tips.
Here we go, we’re back again!
Welcome back to another game week in the Telegraph Fantasy Football for season 25/26. Apologies the blog is a little later than planned, I have been refining the model to be accurate. This will affect our player picks and the fixture difficulties, it has even predicted how the league will finish.
So the game weeks are starting to pass us by, we are in GW4 already and we have been a little inconsistent in that time. As a result I have been refining the model to give better data driven decisions for TFF GW4 tips. Let’s get into it!
GW3 started off well, was going well and then unfortunately some games ended slightly differently to how we imagined. The two main games to highlight is Man City losing 2-1 to Brighton and Nottingham Forest getting beaten by West Ham at the City Ground. Both these two results punished the team and the defenders went from clean sheets to conceding 2 or more.
The Chelsea contingent are best players in TFF carrying this team at the moment with a couple of individuals chipping in. Haaland looks good and I think he will be back to his old self this season. Fernandes who has always been one of my favourites is towing the line as well.
This is what we need, a core team who will perform well in the league and reach the later phases of the cups (Oops sorry United!). Remember that the transfer window has closed and there are lots of new faces joining the league.
This is the interesting part, the fixtures as part of our TFF GW4 tips. What I try to do is to assess the teams to predict the winner of the game. In turn we can then judge whether they win by scoring or not conceding. Very strong favourites tend to be able to keep a clean sheet or score a lot of goals. Liverpool are a good example of goal scorers, and you will see a correlation with scoring goals and winning leagues and cups.
The strong fixtures for GW4 in the Telegraph Fantasy Football are:
This is going to be an interesting segment as we have a lot of opportunities to make a difference in the team. The art of Telegraph Fantasy Football is buying the right player at the right time and that’s where we help. Data driven decisions is what we need to make the right moves in the transfer market.
So let’s look at the teams that have a strong fixture in GW4. The best players GW4 TFF:
Let’s get the obvious ones out the way, get out of Brentford, get out of Burnley, Leeds and Wolves. These teams are about to go through a really rough patch and it’s worth avoiding them for the mean time.
The other team which the models is worried about is West Ham. Even though they did beat Forest the model recognises this as a blip as opposed to the start of a resurgence. You can see something is happening at West Ham as they are linked with a new manager too.
So that is everything for GW4 of the Telegraph Fantasy Football and it’s starting to shape up nicely. We’ve got new players, an international, cup competitions, the league fixtures hotting up and everything to play for.
It looks like it’s going to be a good week for Newcastle, Fulham, Liverpool and Tottenham.
Have fun and enjoy the games guys!
