Answer

Question

Using the full model for GW9 only, what gains does the chip-value tool estimate for Triple Captain, Bench Boost and Free Hit? Which has the largest estimate? Are these guaranteed extra points?

completed trace 2c3aa3ba

Chip-value estimates for GW9 (full model) — snapshot dated 28 Oct 2026, target GW9:

Chip	Estimated gain (EP)
Free Hit	~7.9
Triple Captain	~5.9
Bench Boost	~5.2

Largest estimate: Free Hit, at roughly 7.9 expected points. Note that Free Hit changes and then restores your squad, so this projected opportunity would need a transfer-plan review before acting on it.

Are they guaranteed? No. These are hypothetical model estimates of extra expected points on top of your starting XI's projected ~45.6 EP — not guarantees. Actual returns depend on real performances, and the values assume your current frozen squad with no future transfers planned. All four chips (including Wildcard) are shown as available until GW19, and GW9 is the estimated best window for each of the three within this one-GW horizon.
