Fantasy Premier League: Top Five Goalkeepers for FPL Gameweek 14
Fantasy Premier League managers find themselves in a dilemma this weekend as they weigh the decision of whether to go with Team Salah or Team Erling for the captain’s armband in Gameweek 14. Mo Salah and Erling Haaland emerge as the standout choices, making this decision particularly challenging. Both players are set to play on Sunday, with Salah facing Fulham at Anfield during lunchtime and Haaland taking on Tottenham later in the day, known for their solid full-back-heavy defense.
Beyond the captivating Salah vs Haaland duel, there are other noteworthy matchups to keep an eye on. Anticipate a goal-laden clash when Newcastle hosts Manchester United. Meanwhile, the Burnley vs. Sheffield United fixture epitomizes a relegation six-pointer, with the losing side, if there is one, likely facing a swift return to the Championship come May.
Meanwhile, shot-stoppers are necessary to have a look at as these are the ones that can win you matches without scoring. Let’s have a look at the top 5 goalkeepers who could produce the most points in FPL Gameweek 14.
Bernd Leno (Fulham)
