Players To Pick
Dominic Solanke (Spurs)
After a few quiet games, Dominic Solanke (7.7m) found his scoring touch again after scoring twice and recording an assist against Aston Villa. Spurs face Ipswich, who are yet to win a game this season.
Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United)
Bruno Fernandes (8.2m) scored in his last game against Chelsea and will now enter a favourable run of fixtures with Manchester United. This fixture run starts with Leicester, who are yet to earn a clean sheet away from home this season.
Diogo Dalot (Manchester United)
Despite a disappointing start to the season, Manchester United have been one of the better defences in the league by recording four clean sheets. Diogo Dalot (5.1m) has been part of this defence and also contributed an assist this season, highlighting his attacking potential.
Matz Sels (Nottingham Forest)
Matz Sels (4.6m) has been a key part of Nottingham Forest’s defensive success this season, earning a player of the month nomination recently. Sels has four clean sheets and six bonus points.
Differential Picks
Lewis Hall (Newcastle United)
Newcastle look like they are returning to form after an impressive win against Arsenal last Gameweek. Lewis Hall (4.3m) has been particularly impressive, registering a clean sheet and an assist in his last two games. Newcastle’s fixtures also begin to improve in difficulty starting this Gameweek.
Dejan Kulusevski (Spurs)
Dejan Kulusevski (6.3m) has two goals and two assists in nine games this season. The Swede assisted Solanke in his last game. Kulusevski is a great budget pick if you want a Spurs player for their game against Ipswich. His ownership is only 4%.
Cody Gakpo (Liverpool)
Cody Gakpo (7.1m) has scored in his last three games for Liverpool. The Dutchman looks like he is in form and with an ownership of just 2%, Gakpo could be a huge differential in comparison to the likes of Mohamed Salah (12.8m) and Luis Díaz (7.7m).
Evanilson (Bournemouth)
Evanilson (5.9m) is in great form for Bournemouth. After a tough start to the season, the Brazilian now has three goals and an assist in his last five games. These games are against Manchester City, Arsenal and Aston Villa. Evanilson’s ownership is under one percent.
Captaincy Options
The popular captaincy choice will be Mohamed Salah this week against an Aston Villa side who shipped four in their last Premier League game and also lost in midweek. Salah has been on fire, scoring four goals and assisting once in his last five games.
Dominic Solanke could be worth a punt if you are looking at a differential captain. Ipswich are struggling defensively and the Spurs forward could capitalise from this.
