Answer

Question

Check the chip-value tool using the full model for GW9 only. Can it calculate the expected points gain from playing my Wildcard?

No — the chip-value tool does not produce a Wildcard estimate.

Tool check (full model, GW9 only, snapshot 28 Oct 2026, target GW9):

Chip	Estimated extra points
Triple Captain	5.88
Bench Boost	5.24
Free Hit	7.90

Expected XI score: 45.61 points

Wildcard is not in the output. The tool also states that it values the current frozen squad in every GW with no future transfers planned — an assumption that makes a Wildcard gain impossible to express, since a Wildcard's value comes from changing the squad.

What is available: Wildcard is listed as available until GW19. A Wildcard assessment needs the recommendation tool, which includes chip timing — happy to run that if you'd like. The figures above are hypothetical estimates for a one-GW horizon, not guarantees, and gains from different chips in the same GW should not be added together.
