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?

Chip-value estimates — GW9 only, full model

Snapshot: 28 Oct 2026, season 2026/27, target GW9 (deadline 31 Oct 2026, 11:00).

Chip Estimated gain (GW9) Best GW Status
Free Hit +7.90 pts 9 Available (until GW19)
Triple Captain +5.88 pts 9 Available (until GW19)
Bench Boost +5.24 pts 9 Available (until GW19)

Reference: your starting XI is projected at 45.61 expected points in GW9 under the full model, so each chip figure is on top of that baseline.

Largest estimate: Free Hit, at roughly 7.9 expected points — around 2 points ahead of Triple Captain and 2.7 ahead of Bench Boost.

Are these guaranteed? No. These are model projections from a frozen snapshot, not promises:

  • The figures use the current squad in every GW with no future transfers planned, so the Free Hit estimate is effectively the upside from swapping in a stronger GW9 XI rather than a full plan for the rest of the season.
  • The tool notes these are hypothetical values, computed even for chips that would no longer be available in that GW — here all three are available until GW19, but check availability before acting.
  • The optimiser includes its default bench weight in squad selection, which affects the Bench Boost figure.
  • Actual points depend on real-world events: injuries (Calafiori is flagged at 75% chance of playing, João Pedro out with a thigh injury), fixture swings, and forecast error.

These are chip gains only, separate from your starting-XI projection — and you shouldn't add gains from multiple chips in the same GW.

Want me to pull the underlying recommendations (transfers, captain, bench order, and the chip-timing verdict) for GW9?
