Your survivor pick tracker across all 92 clubs — real fixture difficulty, real form and trap-game warnings, whichever pool rules your league runs.

Next Premier League round: Fri 21 Aug

Championship round under way — started Mon 17 Aug

League One round under way — started Thu 20 Aug

Next League Two round: Sat 22 Aug

The Championship, League One and League Two each play a 46-game season — eight more than the Premier League's 38 — which is why the EFL schedule runs heavier through midweeks.

Gameweek Overview

Where the fixtures are kind, where they're brutal, and who to use while their run is easy — all read straight off this week's fixture difficulty ratings.

Home comforts

Birmingham City, Exeter City, Fleetwood Town, Leicester City, Luton Town and Port Vale have the kindest fixtures at home this week — the calmest names to lean on.

Toughest tests

Accrington Stanley, Bournemouth, Burton Albion, Coventry City, Gillingham and Notts County face the hardest matchups on the board this week — think twice before leaning on them.

Look a few weeks ahead

Wigan Athletic, Arsenal, Ipswich Town, Nott'm Forest and Rochdale have an easy fixture this week but a tougher run arrives over the next few weeks — use them while it's cheap.

Safe pick in the bank: Arsenal carry 90% survival confidence for their Fri 21 Aug fixture and are still unused on your sheet.
