Scale Easiest Good Neutral Hard Hardest

How does FDR work?

FDR rates every upcoming fixture from 1 (easiest) to 5 (hardest) based on opponent strength, adjusted for home and away form. Green cells mark runs to target with transfers and captaincy; red cells mark fixtures to avoid. Sort by the next four or six gameweeks to find the best runs before you commit a transfer.

FAQ

Which teams have the best fixtures right now?

Over their next six matches, Aston Villa, Brighton and Coventry City have the easiest runs by FPL’s official difficulty ratings (average 2.8 or lower), while Hull City and Nott'm Forest face the hardest. The table updates as soon as fixtures move.

Does FDR account for home and away?

Yes — every rating is adjusted for venue. The H/A tag on each cell shows where the match is played.

How often is the table updated?

Fixtures refresh from the official FPL data every 15 minutes, so rescheduled and postponed matches appear within the hour. The difficulty ratings are FPL’s own and change only when FPL revises them.

What do the colours mean?

Green (1–2) marks fixtures to target, grey (3) is neutral, and orange to red (4–5) marks fixtures to avoid. Numbers are shown in every cell so the scale never relies on colour alone.
