GW37 Captain Picks: Doku Exploding vs Haaland in a Six-Pointer at the Etihad

The BOU vs MCI fixture is GW37's headline match, with both sides sitting at difficulty 4 and two of the top five in-form players involved. Doku (form 7.0, just 5.6% owned) is the standout differential, while Haaland (form 5.5, 64.4% owned) remains the armband floor. With only two gameweeks left, the captaincy call here could decide your season rank.

Jeremy DokuCAPTAIN -- 88%
MCI MID£6.5mForm: 7.0Owned: 5.6%+95,718 transfers in

Doku is the joint-fourth highest form player in the game and is being snapped up fast, gaining 95,718 transfers in ahead of GW37. At only 5.6% ownership, captaining him over Haaland is a genuine season-defining differential with MCI facing a winnable away trip.

Erling HaalandHOLD -- 74%
MCI FWD£14.7mForm: 5.5Owned: 64.4%

Haaland is in 64.4% of squads and remains the captaincy safety net -- a blank from him hurts almost everyone equally. His form at 5.5 is solid but trails Doku, making him the floor rather than the ceiling for GW37.

Two Bournemouth defenders -- Truffert and Senesi -- sit in the top three for form this week, making BOU assets broadly appealing even if you skip the captain call. GW37 deadline is 15 May 2026.
