Captain picks carry extra weight, so the safest choice is usually a high-minute attacker with set-piece or penalty involvement.
Safe captains
Elite forwards and attacking midfielders with penalty duty are usually safer than defenders.
Differential captains
A low-selected player can help you climb, but only if the fixture and role support the risk.
Final check
Always confirm starting lineups before locking a captain.
