The Scout's panel of Fantasy Premier League experts give their thoughts on who to captain in Blank Gameweek 29 (BGW29) ahead of the deadline at 13:30 GMT on Saturday 16 March.

It's a straight shootout between Ivan Toney (£8.2m) and Son Heung-min (£10.0m). I prefer Toney's fixture at Burnley, but Son fresh off a big haul is hard to turn down.

Right now we are seeing Son back in the No 9 role and back to his best. However, Toney is playing the weakest defence, so it is between these two. Son currently has the armband.

Son's form is too good to ignore. Playing through the middle means he's been the focal point for a Tottenham Hotspur attack who have scored in every match so far this season.

Son is the standout captaincy option for BGW29 with him playing as centre-forward in a very attacking Spurs team who have most of their first-team players back.

I am likely to give Son the armband. James Maddison (£8.0m) is a good option too. He has been really consistent away from home with 10 goal involvements in eight away matches. Ollie Watkins (£9.0m), providing he's passed fit after being forced off with a cut to his knee in Thursday's UEFA Europa Conference League win over Ajax, and Jarrod Bowen (£8.0m) are also great differential captains.

Son has to have the armband, particularly after his 17-point haul against Aston Villa.

Son seems the sensible choice. His ability to put away big chances is the best in the league. It's between him and Watkins, but I am inclined to back the South Korean.
