<h2><strong>Best FPL captain for Double Gameweek 35: The candidates</strong></h2>
<p>This has been drafted prior to the conclusion of Gameweek 34.</p>
<p><strong>Mohammed Salah (£13.4m)</strong> was benched for the first game and blanked in the second, but our punt <strong>Eberechi Eze (£6.0m)</strong> performed very well.</p>
<p>This week is a mini double gameweek, and strictly speaking you should be targeting a player that plays twice, but is that truly the best option?</p>
<p>These are the main candidates:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Cole Palmer (£6.2m) </strong>v Aston Villa (A) &amp; Spurs (H)</li>
<li><strong>Son Heung-min (£9.8m)</strong> v Arsenal (H) &amp; Chelsea (A)</li>
<li><strong>Mohamed Salah (£13.6m)</strong> v West Ham (A)</li>
<li><strong>Bruno Fernandes (£8.3m)</strong> v Burnley (H)</li>
<li><strong>Anthony Gordon (£6.1m)</strong> v Sheffield United (H)</li>
<li><strong>Alexander Isak (£8.0m) </strong>v Sheffield United (H)</li>
</ul>
<p>I usually cap it at five, but I couldn't split Gordon and Isak, so I've dealt with them collectively.</p>
