<h2>Who has the best fixtures from FPL Gameweek 17?</h2>
<p>Wolves topped the Hub's <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fixture-ticker">fixture ticker</a> last week but with their favourable fixture run coming to an end, they drop to 12th for the next five gameweeks.</p>
<p>It's Fulham who instead rank first, with prime home games against Southampton and Ipswich coming up.</p>
<p>Crystal Palace have the third best run from Gameweek 17, although Gameweek 19 looks a kinder entry point for their players.</p>
<p>Both Manchester clubs have a good set of matches, with United starting with the easier fixture of the two at home to Bournemouth.</p>
<p>Nottingham Forest, Spurs and Everton make up the bottom three. Forest have just two home games in this period, against Spurs and Liverpool.</p>

<h2>Best FPL Wildcard team for Gameweek 17: Predicted points</h2>
<p><strong>Mohamed Salah </strong>leads the <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">predicted points</a> table up to Gameweek 21 but there's almost nothing between him and <strong>Cole Palmer </strong>in second.</p>
<p>A point separates the Chelsea star and <strong>Erling Haaland </strong>in third, who has dropped to 37.7% ownership amid his poor form.</p>
<p><strong>Matheus Cunha's </strong>position in sixth is highly likely to change amid news he has been charged with misconduct in the aftermath of Wolves' defeat to Ipswich.</p>
<p><strong>Jean-Philippe Mateta</strong> and Palace's improving fixtures could come at the perfect time, with him and Cunha similarly priced.</p>
<p>There are no defenders in the top 20, with nine midfielders and 11 forwards making the cut. <strong>Alexander Isak </strong>is the leading forward outside Haaland.</p>
