Gameweek 12 of FPL sets in motion a hectic schedule that extends till after New Year, and FPL managers will look to get their teams right for the upcoming fixtures.
FPL managers will choose the premium FPL options for their teams over this period and will also be looking to strengthen their bench to cover for the absence of some players.
The main focus for FPL managers will, however, be the captaincy choice for FPL Gameweek 12. The decision will be a little more complicated because Bruno Fernandes and Kevin De Bruyne will go head-to-head in the Manchester derby.
This does allow FPL managers to consider some other captaincy choices, with teams like Tottenham Hotspur, Leicester City, and Liverpool having some enticing fixtures.
Let's now take a look at the top 5 best FPL captaincy choices for Gameweek 11.
Honorable Mentions: Harry Kane (TOT) (FWD) (£10.9 m), Danny Ings (SOU) (FWD) (£8.3 m), and Callum Wilson (NEW) (FWD) (£6.6 m)
#5 Jamie Vardy (LEI) (FWD)- £10.3 m (vs) BHA(H)
Jamie Vardy continues to be a great FPL captaincy choice over this good run of fixtures for Leicester City.
The Foxes' striker scored a late winner against Sheffield United to reward his owners with an 8-point FPL haul. He'll look to find the net once again when Leicester take on Brighton in Gameweek 12.
Vardy hasn't been as prolific in home games as he has been in away games. However, he does have a goal and an assist in his last two home games, and he'll look to extend that run into this Gameweek.
While Leicester has had some defensive issues, they have done alright on the attacking front, and Vardy is a decent FPL captaincy option.
#4 Sadio Mane (LIV) (MID) - £12.0 m (vs) FUL(A)
Sadio Mane hasn't been able to match Mo Salah in this FPL season despite getting the better scoring opportunities. The Senegal international is among the most clinical finishers in the league and shouldn't be missing out on these opportunities for long.
He recorded an assist in Gameweek 11 and will look to add to his tally of FPL points in away games. While Salah has the added advantage of being on penalties, Mane is a great attacker and should get a huge FPL haul this Gameweek.
#3 Timo Werner (CHE) (FWD) - (£9.5 m) (vs) EVE(A)
Timo Werner has been unlucky to get just two assists in the last three Gameweeks. The Chelsea frontman has seen some extraordinary chances come his way but hasn't managed to find the net. He has a great conversion rate and should start to find the net soon.
That prospect makes him a great FPL captaincy option in this Gameweek. That's because Chelsea's opponents Everton have been very leaky at the back and are in the bottom five when it comes to xGA (Expected Goals against).
Given how Chelsea have been playing, Werner should get plenty of goal-scoring chances. He's likely to score and get a good FPL haul this week.
#2 Son Heung-Min (TOT) (MID) - £9.5 m (vs) CRY(A)
The in-form Son Heung-Min will be a great FPL option to give your captain's armband to. He has a good record against the Eagles and has scored three times against them in three starts.
He has also been in phenomenal form this season and became the first player to cross 100 FPL points after his goal and assist against Arsenal in Gameweek 11.
Spurs have been tactically brilliant this season and have altered between an attacking and defensive set-up against different teams. This game is likely to see them taking the front foot and with Son in such good form, he's a great FPL captaincy option.
#1 Mohamed Salah (LIV) (MID) - £12.3 m (vs) FUL(A)
Mohamed Salah is among the top FPL captaincy options for this Gameweek, if not the best. His explosive points potential and good form make him a very dependable FPL option to have in your team. He scored and set up a goal in Gameweek 11 on the way to a 14-point FPL haul, and he'll look to carry on that form into the next Gameweek.
While he isn't a prolific scorer in away matches, Salah has done better in such games this season. He has four goals and one assist in five games, which isn't a bad stat at all. Playing for an in-form Liverpool team, Salah is a great FPL captaincy option.
