How this page is put together
Price, ownership, minutes and the raw season totals come straight from the public Fantasy Premier League API. The rating and the predicted points are this site's own: a regression model trained per position on per-gameweek history, then run once per upcoming fixture so home advantage and opponent strength are priced in. There's a fuller account on the about page.
Numbers update when the site refreshes its data, normally overnight and after each gameweek. Predicted points are a model output, not a promise — use them as one input among several.
