Aston Villa's next 3 fixtures: GW6 at home vs Brentford (FDR 3 — moderate); GW7 away vs Newcastle (FDR 3 — moderate); GW8 at home vs Man City (FDR 4 — tough). Average FDR is 3.3 — a mixed schedule. Lower FDR means easier opposition.

Aston Villa have a mixed fixture run (avg FDR 3.2). 1–2 differential picks can be rewarding; captaincy relies on form. As a general rule, FPL squads with 3+ players from one team risk blank GW exposure if that club is in a cup run. Spread risk unless fixtures are clearly favourable.
