He sits as the second-highest scorer since then, accumulating an impressive 41 points from five goals. In this suggested best XI lineup using a 3-5-2 formation, Cole Palmer at £5.7m is given the captain’s armband, while Bukayo Saka at £9.0m is named vice-captain.

David Raya (Arsenal FC)

Priced at £4.9m, David Raya, Arsenal’s goalkeeper, is a solid option for Fantasy Premier League managers. His impressive home form makes him particularly appealing as Arsenal prepares to host Crystal Palace.

With consistent performances, he provides a reliable choice for FPL managers seeking a goalkeeper with a strong track record, especially in home fixtures.

Pedro Porro (Tottenham Hotspur)

Priced at £5.8m, Pedro Porro from Tottenham Hotspur is an enticing option in Fantasy Premier League. Currently standing at third place among defenders with 77 points, Porro has been a consistent performer with seven assists and five clean sheets. His attacking prowess was further emphasized by a winning goal against Burnley in the FA Cup. As Porro heads to face Manchester United, FPL managers can rely on his significant attacking contributions, making him a valuable asset for those looking to strengthen their defensive line.

The French defender has showcased his playmaking abilities by providing all three of his assists this season in the five starts he has made at Stamford Bridge. Notably, Gusto has averaged 4.6 points per match (ppm) in these encounters, making him a valuable budget-friendly pick for FPL managers looking to strengthen their defensive options.

Bukayo Saka (Arsenal)

Priced at £9.0m, Bukayo Saka from Arsenal presents Fantasy Premier League managers with a significant goal threat, particularly evident in the last six Gameweeks. Despite scoring only once in that period, Saka has stood out among midfielders with 24 total shots and 20 shots inside the box. Only Mohamed Salah (£13.2m) surpasses him in these categories.

This impressive goal-scoring potential positions Saka as a promising option, especially facing a Crystal Palace side that has not kept a clean sheet in their last nine league matches. FPL managers can look to capitalize on Saka’s attacking contributions in the upcoming fixtures.

Phil Foden (Manchester City)

Priced at £7.9m, Phil Foden from Manchester City has become a pivotal figure for the team, particularly with the absence of Erling Haaland (£13.9m). The English star has heightened his impact in recent outings, emerging as the City’s form player. In the last four matches across all competitions, Foden has contributed significantly, scoring four goals and providing two assists. As he visits Newcastle United, FPL managers can rely on Foden’s current run of form and attacking contributions to bolster their midfield options in the Fantasy Premier League.

Richarlison (Tottenham Hotspur)

Priced at £6.9m, Richarlison from Tottenham Hotspur has showcased an impressive goal-scoring threat, particularly evident in the last five Gameweeks. His tally of six big chances during this period surpasses that of any other player in Fantasy Premier League. This statistic underscores Richarlison’s consistent goal-scoring opportunities and positions him as a standout option for FPL managers seeking an impactful and in-form attacker for their team.

Pascal Gross (Brighton)

Priced at £6.4m, Pascal Gross from Brighton has proven to be the top-scoring player for the team at Amex Stadium this season. Over nine home matches, the German midfielder has contributed significantly with two goals, three assists, and a total of 47 points. In the last six Gameweeks, Gross has been a creative force, jointly topping Fantasy with 22 chances created. Additionally, his 16 shots represent a team-leading total, emphasizing his dual threat as both a goal-creator and scorer. FPL managers looking for a versatile midfielder with a strong home record might find Gross to be a valuable addition to their teams.

Cole Palmer (Chelsea)

Priced at £5.7m, Cole Palmer from Chelsea has been a standout performer with four double-figure hauls in just 12 starts since making his full Premier League debut. As Chelsea faces Fulham in the upcoming fixture, Palmer presents a promising fantasy prospect. Notably, Fulham ranks among the bottom two sides in terms of conceding goals, shots on target, and big chances in away matches during the 2023/24 season. FPL managers can capitalize on Palmer’s impressive track record and favourable opposition to potentially boost their midfield options for the upcoming game.

Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa)

Priced at £8.9m, Ollie Watkins from Aston Villa has been a consistent fantasy performer, blanking only once in his last four away matches. Over this period, he has amassed 27 points, contributing with three goals and an assist. Watkins is set to face Everton in the next fixture, a team that has struggled defensively by conceding at least twice in each of their last three Premier League matches. This favorable matchup positions Watkins as a compelling forward option for FPL managers looking to capitalize on his recent form and exploit Everton’s defensive vulnerabilities.
