How This Works

Each team's average Fixture Difficulty Rating (FDR) is calculated over their next 5 matches using the official FPL difficulty scale (1 = easiest, 5 = hardest). Teams are sorted from the lowest (easiest run) to the highest (toughest run), helping you identify which clubs to target for transfers and wildcards.
