<h2>Sky Fantasy Football Gameweek 3 Review</h2>
<p>In this weekly article, I want to identify those <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/category/sky-fantasy-football-tips/"><strong>Sky Fantasy</strong></a> players and teams who are going to perform on a consistent basis, either through form or fixtures.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll start by showing at a top level which teams received the <strong>most points in Gameweek 3</strong> overall. A base points-per-team will be <strong>22 points</strong> (2 points per starting player). From a total league perspective the base score is <strong>470 points</strong> (440 points from starting players and 10 Man of the Match performances).</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>A total of <strong>900 points</strong> were scored over the weekend, which was the <strong>lowest of the season</strong> so far. In the second article of the international break, we&#8217;ll analyse the data from the season so far. We&#8217;ll also look into <strong>which teams concede the most points</strong> across the course of the season.</p>
<p>The graph below shows us <strong>which teams scored the most bonus points</strong> over the weekend and also which type of bonus they came from.</p>
<div id="attachment_38259" style="width: 913px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-38259" class="size-full wp-image-38259" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-GW3.png" alt="" width="903" height="517" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-GW3.png 903w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-GW3-300x172.png 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-GW3-768x440.png 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-GW3-610x349.png 610w" sizes="(max-width: 903px) 100vw, 903px" /><p id="caption-attachment-38259" class="wp-caption-text">Bonus Points Gameweek 3 &#8211; Sky Fantasy Tips</p></div>
<p>There was a lot more correlation between the teams who scored the most points and those that scored well on bonus. As we approach <strong>overhaul,</strong> it is we should definitely consider which teams consistently score the most points to properly<strong> target good fixture runs</strong>.</p>
<p>One of the biggest takeaways was <strong>West Ham</strong> not getting any bonus points over Gameweek 3. That&#8217;s surprising considering the form they&#8217;ve been in.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div id="attachment_38261" style="width: 1309px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-38261" class="size-full wp-image-38261" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Tiers-GW3.png" alt="" width="1299" height="293" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Tiers-GW3.png 1299w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Tiers-GW3-300x68.png 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Tiers-GW3-1024x231.png 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Tiers-GW3-768x173.png 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Tiers-GW3-610x138.png 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Tiers-GW3-1080x244.png 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 1299px) 100vw, 1299px" /><p id="caption-attachment-38261" class="wp-caption-text">Bonus Tiers Gameweek 3</p></div>
<p>The above data gives us a quick view of <strong>who hit the Sky Fantasy bonus tiers in Gameweek 3</strong>. We&#8217;ll also keep running totals so we can see which players are the bonus magnets we want in our team (hopefully at reasonable prices).</p>
<p>It&#8217;ll also show us (specifically for passes and tackles) which players were just short of the level required.</p>
<p>As we can see<strong> Adam Webster (again), Rodri, James Ward-Prowse </strong>and <strong>Mohamed Salisu </strong>all hit bonus points in two tiers. Everyone else who hit bonus points did it in just one category.</p>
<p>Those that fell just short this week include <strong>Davinson Sanchez (£7.8m) </strong>who just missed out on both tackles and passing. <strong>Joel Matip (£8.4m) </strong>hit Tier 2 passing and was just <strong>1 tackle away from Tier 1</strong> there as well. <strong>Yves Bissouma (£7.5m) </strong>hit Tier 1 tackles and just missed out on the required passes.</p>
<div id="attachment_38262" style="width: 899px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-38262" class="size-full wp-image-38262" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-by-Player-GW1-3.png" alt="" width="889" height="519" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-by-Player-GW1-3.png 889w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-by-Player-GW1-3-300x175.png 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-by-Player-GW1-3-768x448.png 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Bonus-Points-by-Player-GW1-3-610x356.png 610w" sizes="(max-width: 889px) 100vw, 889px" /><p id="caption-attachment-38262" class="wp-caption-text">Sky Bonus Points by Player Gameweek 1-3 via FF Stuff</p></div>
<p>However, if we look at the chart above it shows us who is performing well across all games. <strong>Adam Webster</strong> tops the charts after three games and looks a <strong>great budget enabler</strong> for the impending <strong>overhaul</strong>.</p>
<p>Perhaps unsurprisingly, the list is <strong>dominated by defenders and midfielders</strong> (given keepers and forwards only really have one type of bonus they score with). <strong>Kasper Schmeichel </strong>and <strong>Mohamed Salah </strong>will do well to stay on the list, but they show how there&#8217;s potential for bonus points even without clean sheets or goals every game.</p>
<p>No player has hit the tackles bonus in every game, but <strong>Adam Webster </strong>and <strong>Matty Cash </strong>have both hit Tier 1 twice then missed out by one tackle in the third game. Meanwhile, <strong>Sergi Canos </strong>and <strong>Cesar Azpilicueta </strong>have hit Tier 2 twice and in the third missed out by one tackle again.</p>
<p>In terms of passing, four sides are dominating the bonus points: <strong>Brighton, Liverpool, Man City </strong>and <strong>Chelsea. </strong>Obviously the latter got nowhere near after playing a half with only ten men in Gameweek 3, but going forward I think <strong>these four teams will offer great potential</strong>.</p>
<p>Any cheap regular starting player for these teams could really help extend the budget further up the field. <strong>Joel Matip </strong>and <strong>Andreas Christensen,</strong> I&#8217;m looking at you!</p>
<div id="attachment_38263" style="width: 822px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-38263" class="size-full wp-image-38263" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Points-per-Million-per-Game-GW3.png" alt="" width="812" height="373" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Points-per-Million-per-Game-GW3.png 812w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Points-per-Million-per-Game-GW3-300x138.png 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Points-per-Million-per-Game-GW3-768x353.png 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Points-per-Million-per-Game-GW3-610x280.png 610w" sizes="(max-width: 812px) 100vw, 812px" /><p id="caption-attachment-38263" class="wp-caption-text">Points per Million per Game Gameweek 3</p></div>
<p>The chart above will become more useful over the course of the season, but it still gives us a good way of comparing players at different price points.</p>
<p>At this early stage, some players have had one good game and it sways their numbers. With that said, we&#8217;re already starting to see consistent players we can perhaps target post-overhaul. <strong>Michail Antonio (£8.8m)</strong> and <strong>Aymeric Laporte (£9.1m) </strong>look like the two most consistent options so far.</p>

<p>Another great week with my A team, despite another captaincy fail from <strong>Bruno Fernandes (£11.8m) </strong>who chipped in with a one-pointer on Sunday. <strong>Mohamed Salah (£11.9m) </strong>contributed <strong>9 points</strong>, <strong>Michail Antonio (£8.8m)</strong> hauled me <strong>20 points</strong> <strong>(including captaincy)</strong> and the other mention goes to <strong>James Ward-Prowse, </strong>whose injury-time penalty was a massive swing in my favour.</p>
<p>72 points for the gameweek and a current position of <strong>589</strong> is a great spot to be in at <strong>overhaul</strong>, where things start to get really interesting. The B team is also doing reasonably well, sitting in 13k.</p>
<p>I did make the Salah &#8211; Kane punt in my B team on Sunday which ultimately proved fruitless.</p>
<p>In my next article I&#8217;ll dig into the <strong>upcoming fixtures</strong>, <strong>best players to go for in each team</strong>, <strong>single game days we should cover</strong> and reveal <strong>my team to attack the coming weeks</strong>.</p>
