How To Use The Data
How To Use FPL Defender Stats And Clean Sheet Potential
Assess defenders for the points generated by defensive work, then test whether their teams combine proven chance prevention with an easier upcoming run.
Attacking returns are excluded from the defensive-value ranking. The clean-sheet map combines on-pitch xGC per 90 with the club’s next-three-gameweek schedule.
Player prices, points, ownership, form, transfers and expected statistics come from the official FPL data. Any TFA projection is labelled and its method is explained beside the map.
