FPL Fixture Difficulty Ratings

Fixture Difficulty Ratings (FDR) for players and teams in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game. The fixture difficulty ratings calculated by FPL themselves do not differentiate between attack and defence. But a team may both score a lot of goals and concede a lot of goals, or conversely may be poor in attack and great in defence.

My fixture difficulty ratings are separated by attacking difficulty and defensive difficulty, so they are more specific than the fixture difficulty ratings calculated by FPL, and therefore more useful in identifying opponents to target when choosing players for your FPL team. The figures are updated hourly.
