Brentford's goalkeeper had a solid debut season in the Premier League. With 119 points in the 2023/24 season, Flekken proved to be a reliable budget option. His projected points for the first five gameweeks suggest he could continue to offer good value, especially with a favourable home fixture against Crystal Palace to kick off the season.
Flekken is currently the most popular goalkeeper among managers in our Elite XI: Team Reveal feature, who collectively have achieved 83 top 10k finishes. He is included in 42.9% of their squads.
Newcastle's Swiss defender offers an interesting differential option. With 123 points last season, Schär demonstrated his ability to contribute both defensively and offensively. His projected points for the opening fixtures look promising, with a home game against Southampton to start the campaign.
Despite a lower point total last season due to injuries, Robertson remains a top-tier FPL asset. The Liverpool full-back has a history of providing assists and clean sheets. With favourable home fixtures against Brentford, Nottingham Forest, and Bournemouth in the first five gameweeks, Robertson could be set for a strong start.
Robertson ranks as the third-highest defender for projected points over the first five gameweeks, according to the Predicted Points & Stats tool. He trails only his teammate Alexander-Arnold (owned by 20.3% of managers) and Gvardiol (owned by 31.6% of managers).
Arsenal's Brazilian center-back had an impressive 2023/24 season, accumulating 149 points. Gabriel offers a solid combination of clean sheet potential and goal threat from set-pieces. With a home fixture against Wolves to start the season, he could hit the ground running.
Arsenal (1.9) rank behind only Manchester City (2.1) for projected clean sheets in the first five gameweeks, as highlighted in the Predicted Points and Stats tool above.
Arsenal's captain just sneaks into our differential team with ownership slightly below 15%. Ødegaard's 186 points last season highlight his importance to the Gunners' attack. With appealing early fixtures, including home games against Wolves and Brighton, he could be a key differential in the opening gameweeks.
Gibbs-White: The Garibaldi Gem 💎

The Nottingham Forest midfielder showcased his potential last season, amassing an impressive 142 #FPL points with 5 goals and 12 assists. His creative prowess is evident, and at a cost of £6.5 million, he offers excellent value for money.… pic.twitter.com/cuKzOa7NsU
Nottingham Forest's creative midfielder impressed last season, scoring 142 points. Gibbs-White's set-piece duties and involvement in Forest's attack make him an intriguing differential option, especially with a kind run of early fixtures.
Liverpool's Colombian winger could be set for a breakout FPL season under new Liverpool manager Arne Slot. With 142 points last term despite some injury issues, a fully fit Díaz could offer excellent value. However, FPL managers should monitor Liverpool's preseason to determine if he is likely to be a first-team starter under the new coach.
It's rare to see De Bruyne as a differential, but his injury-hit 2023/24 season has led to lower ownership. The Belgian maestro's quality is undeniable, and if he stays fit, his projected points suggest he could be a game-changer in the early weeks.
De Bruyne, now priced at £9.5m, the same as his teammate Foden (33% ownership), was certainly the more creative of the two last season, according to the Fix Comparison Matrix. However, Foden had a higher goals-per-match rate among the two Manchester City midfielders.
Tottenham's South Korean star had another stellar season, amassing 213 points. With tempting home fixtures against Everton and Brentford in the first five gameweeks, Son could be a potent differential option for those looking to invest heavily in midfield.
Toney's low point total from last season is due to his suspension, but he's back and ready to make an impact. His ownership is surprisingly low given his proven Premier League quality. With a home fixture against Crystal Palace to start, Toney could hit the ground running.
Arsenal's 2023/24 signing from Chelsea rounds off our differential team. Havertz's 180 points last season highlight his potential. However, a position change to forward will result in one fewer point per goal and a loss of one point for every Arsenal clean sheet. With a home game against Wolves to start, he could be a shrewd differential pick.
This differential team offers a mix of proven FPL performers and exciting prospects, all with ownership of 15% or less. While some face challenging fixtures, their potential for points and low ownership make them intriguing options for managers looking to gain an edge.
