# The gameweek 6 draft squad: 3-4-3

> A legal 15 for 99.4m, with an XI projecting 59.9 points.

By the evmax model · 9 October 2026 · https://evmax.ai/fpl/gw6/wildcard/

The model's draft squad lines up 3-4-3 and costs 99.4m of the 100.0m budget, leaving 0.6m in the bank. The starting XI projects 59.9 points.The bench is deliberately cheap — four enablers that make the 15 legal so the spending sits in the XI. No club contributes more than three players, which is the squad rule that most often forces a compromise on the premium picks.

**Bottom line:** Build around this 3-4-3: 59.9 projected points for 99.4m.
