Players To Pick
Dominic Solanke (Spurs)
Dominic Solanke (7.6m) has two goals and an assist in his last three games for Spurs. Spurs have a favourable run of fixtures up until their meeting with Manchester City in Gameweek 15. This gives Solanke an opportunity to continue his run of attacking returns starting with West Ham this Saturday.
Liam Delap (Ipswich Town)
After scoring three goals in two games, FPL managers have taken an interest to Liam Delap (5.7m) ahead of Ipswich’s encounter with Everton. Despite an encounter with Spurs in Gameweek 11, Ipswich have fixtures up until Gameweek 18 that rank 3 or below on the Fixture Difficulty Rating. This could allow Delap to continue his form.
Chris Wood (Nottingham Forest)
Chris Wood (6.2m) has four goals in seven games and has been one of the focal points of Nottingham Forest’s impressive start to the season. Nottingham Forest have a good run of fixtures beginning with Crystal Palace, who are yet to win a game this season.
Raúl Jiménez (Fulham)
Raúl Jiménez (5.6m) extended his impressive run of form with an assist of the season contender against Manchester City. The Fulham striker is heading into a great run of fixtures with three goals and an assist in his last four games.
Differential Picks
Nathan Collins (Brentford)
Despite Brentford’s struggles in keeping clean sheets this season Nathan Collins (4.5m) has shown his attacking threat for the Bee’s with one goal and three assists this season. If Brentford can tighten up in defence ahead of their easier schedule, then Collins could be a great differential at just 1.8% ownership.
Cameron Archer (Southampton)
Cameron Archer (5.0m) scored against Arsenal last weekend and faces Leicester at home this Gameweek. Southampton’s underlying numbers in attack have been impressive this season and they have been unlucky not to score more goals. This luck could change for Archer and Southampton.
Nikola Milenković (Nottingham Forest)
Nottingham Forest have been strong in defence this season, and Nikola Milenković (4.5m) could be an effective route into their defence as Nottingham Forest encounter easier fixtures. Milenković has an ownership of under one percent.
Andreas Pereira (Fulham)
Andreas Pereira (5.3m) has a goal and an assist in his last two games against in-form Nottingham Forest and the champions, Manchester City. With just a 1.7% ownership, Pereira could be a good differential in Fulham’s improved run of fixtures.
Captaincy Options
Bukayo Saka (10.1m) will be a popular candidate for captaincy against Bournemouth this Gameweek after his goal and two assists against Southampton. Saka has blanked just once this season.
Erling Haaland (15.4m) will likely be favoured for captaincy this week despite back-to-back blanks. Haaland faces a Wolves side who conceded five goals against Brentford last Gameweek.
Despite Cole Palmer (10.8m) and Mohamed Salah (12.7m) facing each other this Gameweek, FPL managers should not rule out their ability to earn attacking returns in bigger games.
