12 Premier League players with the most BPs in 2024/25

In Fantasy Premier League (FPL), bonus points are allocated after each match to outstanding performers.

They are calculated via the Bonus Points System (BPS), which utilises various statistics supplied by Opta such as goals, successful crosses and pass completion percentage to create a performance score for every Premier League player. The players with the top three BPS totals in each match are then given bonus points.

Three are awarded to the highest-scoring player, two to the second-best, and one to the third.

But who are the best at grabbing bonus points? We’ve listed the top 12 players with the most bonus points in FPL so far this season, with the amount of BPS points used as a tiebreaker, alongside other bonus points statistics.

The 10 most popular FPL players this season

Here are the players everyone has picked for their fantasy teams this year.

All data correct as of 1st November 2024.

12

Harvey Barnes (Newcastle)

Midfielder, 8 bonus points

Newcastle United midfielder Harvey Barnes enjoyed a fine run of personal form earlier this season. After getting an assist in the Magpies’ draw with Bournemouth, he then scored three goals in three games against Tottenham, Wolves and Fulham.

His performances across those four matches saw him earn a total of 33 FPL points, eight of which were bonus points.

Since then, his form hasn’t been quite as good, with the Englishman having failed to register a single goal contribution in any of Newcastle’s last four top-flight games ahead of the visit of Arsenal.

11

Yoane Wissa (Brentford)

Forward, 8 bonus points

Despite being injured for three games this season, Brentford striker Yoane Wissa has already scored an impressive 39 points in FPL, eight of which have been bonus points.

The DR Congo international has scored five times for the Bees, including twice in their recent 4-3 win over Ipswich Town – with the Bees winning an appeal over Wissa’s second, which had initially been given as an own goal.

10

Luis Diaz (Liverpool)

Midfielder, 8 bonus points

Like Barnes, Liverpool winger Luis Diaz has scored eight FPL bonus points so far this season, which he earned during the wins over Brentford, Manchester United and Bournemouth. The Colombian was on the scoresheet on all three occasions.

In total, Diaz has already earned 60 FPL points this term. Only five players – Bukayo Saka, Bryan Mbeumo, Erling Haaland, Cole Palmer and Mohamed Salah – have earned more. It’s no wonder he’s a popular pick among FPL players.

9

Matheus Cunha (Wolves)

Forward, 9 bonus points

Gary O’Neil’s Wolves are struggling this season, having picked up just two points from nine Premier League games. Striker Matheus Cunha, however, has been a ray of hope thanks to his four goals and all-round impressive displays.

In FPL, the Brazilian has scored a total of 41 points, including nine bonus points, which he earned in games against Aston Villa, Brentford and Brighton.

Cunha will need to keep up his good form if Wolves are to avoid relegation come the end of the campaign.

8

Nicolas Jackson (Chelsea)

Forward, 9 bonus points

Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has been in fine form this season, scoring six goals and providing three assists in nine Premier League games for the Blues.

As a result, he’s already earned an impressive 57 FPL points, nine of which have been bonus points. Six of those bonus points came from Chelsea’s wins over West Ham and Newcastle, while he also scored a point in games against Liverpool, Crystal Palace and Wolves.

Jackson’s six goals this term means he’s now scored as many Premier League goals for Chelsea as Fernando Torres.

7

Bukayo Saka (Arsenal)

Midfielder, 10 bonus points

Arsenal star Bukayo Saka is one of the highest-scoring players in FPL this season, having already picked up 63 points in total.

The Englishman, who has three goals and seven assists in nine games for the Gunners, has been awarded bonus points in six separate games. He earned the maximum three in Arsenal’s 3-1 win over Southampton and two in the recent 2-2 draw with Liverpool.

6

Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford)

Midfielder, 12 bonus points

Finding goalscoring midfielders is key for FPL players, and Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo is just that.

This season, the Cameroon international has scored eight Premier League goals in just nine games, making him the division’s second-highest scorer behind Erling Haaland. His performances have earned him 68 FPL points so far – 29 of which came in just two games against Southampton and Ipswich Town.

5

Cole Palmer (Chelsea)

Midfielder, 12 bonus points

Cole Palmer was the king of FPL last season. He finished the campaign with a total of 244 points, which was more than any other player.

The Chelsea midfielder has continued this season in the same vein, having already picked up a whopping 79 points, 12 of which have been bonus points.

4

Danny Welbeck (Brighton)

Forward, 13 bonus points

Danny Welbeck is ageing like a fine wine.

Now 33, the former England international is in the form of his life, having netted six goals in nine Premier League games for Brighton this season. It’s already his joint-best top-flight return for the Seagulls, and there are still 29 games to play.

In FPL, he’s scored 57 points, including 13 bonus points, which have been spread across six games.

3

Chris Wood (Nottingham Forest)

Forward, 13 bonus points

Nottingham Forest are the division’s surprise package this season and Chris Wood has been their star man. After nine games, Nuno Espirito Santo’s side, who only narrowly avoided relegation last year, are seventh in the Premier League table, having lost just once.

Wood has scored seven goals already, and his form has earned him 59 FPL points – 13 of which have come as bonuses.

However, Forest (and FPL players) could be without the New Zealand striker this weekend after he picked up a knock in Forest’s 3-1 win over Leicester City.

2

Erling Haaland (Man City)

Forward, 14 bonus points

Given that Erling Haaland is once again the Premier League’s leading goalscorer this term with 11 goals in nine games, it will come as no surprise to anybody that the Manchester City forward also earned his fair share of FPL bonus points.

The Norway international currently has 75 overall, which is the third-highest of any player.

14 of those points have been bonus points. He picked up two on the opening day against Chelsea, before getting three in each of City’s next four games against Ipswich, West Ham, Brentford and Arsenal.

He hasn’t scored a single bonus point in any of his last four matches, but don’t expect that dry spell to last too much longer.

1

Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)

Midfielder, 16 bonus points

Liverpool star man Mohamed Salah is FPL’s highest-scoring player this season. The Egyptian already has 84 points to his name, including a league-high 16 bonus points.

Widely reported to be on his way out of Anfield come the end of the season, Salah has scored six goals and provided five assists in nine top-flight games this term, establishing himself as the key man in Arne Slot’s high-flying side.

Liverpool fans, Slot, and FPL players alike will be hoping he doesn’t go anywhere in the summer.
