West Ham hand the armband to Jarrod Bowen for the season’s last match, a must‑win against Leeds to keep survival hopes alive. Bowen hasn’t found the net since week 24 but still registers double‑digit assist tallies, offering a potential final‑day spark. A win could secure the Hammers’ Premier League status; a loss likely ends their top‑flight run.

Burnley’s £4.2m rookie Max Weiss could replace a rested David Raya, and Wolves’ away record suggests a clean sheet is plausible. Bournemouth defender Adrien Truffert tops the FPL points chart with 60 since week 29, contributing a goal, three assists and bonus points. Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk offers six goals and twelve big chances, while Fulham’s Antonee Robinson may profit from a penalty against Newcastle.

Chelsea’s £10.3m striker Cole Palmer emerges as the best final‑day gamble, his 1.75 xG over six weeks outpacing any teammate and a hat‑trick against Wolves still fresh in memory. Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai eyes a high‑scoring Brentford clash, while Richarlison remains Tottenham’s most dangerous forward despite limited goals. Bournemouth’s Junior Kroupi, on penalties, adds extra firepower for a possible top‑five push.
