Top 5 Best FPL Midfielders to Pick in GW28
| Rank | Player | Club | Price | Points | GW 28 Opponents |
| 1 | Mo Salah | Liverpool | £13.8m | 285 points | Southampton |
| 2 | Cole Palmer | Chelsea | £11.1m | 177 points | Leicester City |

| 5 | Dango Ouattara | Bournemouth | £5.2m | 97 points | Spurs |
5. Dango Ouattara – Bournemouth | 97 points | £5.2m
Dango Ouattara is a very intriguing player. At Lorient, he burst onto the scene as a thrilling, electrifying winger. While he has replicated this at Bournemouth in the Premier League as well, under Andoni Iraola, he has not only developed into a well-rounded player but also a versatile one. He has effectively played in any position Bournemouth has required him to fulfill this season. He has excelled as both a winger and a left back. When the Cherries were short on a striker, he also took on the role of striker and netted a hat-trick. He has already accumulated 7 goals and 4 assists in the Premier League this season and is anticipated to achieve even more against Tottenham Hotspur this weekend.
4. Bryan Mbeumo – Brentford | 171 points | £8.0m
Bryan Mbeumo is experiencing a remarkable season. He has netted 15 goals and delivered 4 assists, and in terms of Fantasy Premier League, only Salah and Palmer have gathered more points than him. However, there’s an unusual element to this performance. Brentford have been remarkably strong at home while facing difficulties on the road. This is evident in Mbeumo’s own displays, impressive at home and less so away. This weekend, Brentford will host Aston Villa. Although the Villains have been performing well recently, Mbeumo at the GTech Stadium presents a tough challenge.
3. Marco Asensio – Aston Villa | 19 points | £6.1m
Marco Asensio once emerged at Real Madrid as one of the most talented young players globally, even netting a goal in a Champions League final. However, he hadn’t been the same following an ACL injury. That changed when he encountered Unai Emery at Aston Villa. The manager appears to have revitalized Asensio. In the last 4 matches across all competitions, he has scored 5 goals. Well-supported by players such as Marcus Rashford, Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins, and Donyell Malen, he seems to be thriving once more and is poised to have a significant influence week after week. This weekend, it’s Brentford that are Villa’s adversaries.
2. Cole Palmer – Chelsea | 180 points | £11.1m
It’s the well-known names at the forefront of this ranking once again. Cole Palmer has been extraordinarily effective in recent seasons. While some might have viewed last season as an outlier due to his 33-goal contributions in the league. He has refuted all of this by netting 20 already this season. Nevertheless, it has been a variable season for him. His last two performances in the Premier League have not produced significant results, but there are no indications that another major Fantasy Premier League score isn’t on the horizon as an unpredictable Chelsea team prepares to face Southampton. Palmer still holds the second position on the list of leading point scorers.
1. Mo Salah – Liverpool | 291 points | £13.8m
Mo Salah has gained more points in Fantasy Premier League than any other player this season so far, and this situation is not expected to change soon. He was also the first player to reach over the 200 point threshold this season and soon will be the first to cross 300. Salah’s reliability is impressive, having produced significant returns in almost every match he has participated in this season. He has already netted 25 goals and delivered 17 assists in the Premier League this season, exceeding any other rival at this stage in the league’s history. He does face a relatively easier match against Southampton this weekend, but given the form he has been in, it doesn’t matter who the adversaries are.
As we turn our attention to Gameweek 28, the Premier League has a thrilling set of fixtures lined up. The highlight of the weekend is the game between Manchester United and Arsenal. In their most recent game, Arsenal put 7 past PSV in the Champions League and Manchester United got knocked out of the FA Cup by Fulham.
The deadline for GW28 is on the 8th March.
