Brighton's Japanese star, Kaoru Mitoma, has been in scintillating form, racking up 19 points over the last two gameweeks. With 3 goals and 3 assists, he’s tallied an impressive 57 FPL points this season. His expected goals (xG) of 4.56 indicates he’s been slightly unlucky not to add more to his goal tally.
This weekend, Brighton take on Leicester City away—a fixture that could see Mitoma capitalise on the Foxes’ defensive frailties. On the road, he’s already scored 24 points this season, second only to Danny Welbeck’s 32, according to the Opta Heatmaps tool.
Mitoma’s creativity is evident, with 4 big chances created and an expected assists total of 2.7—both the highest for Brighton—making him a tempting differential pick for FPL managers seeking a game-changing midfielder.
Wolves' Norwegian striker, Strand Larsen, has been a standout performer this season. With 6 goals and 2 assists in 14 appearances, he has earned an impressive 63 FPL points. However, his xG of 3.91 suggests he may be significantly outperforming expectations—though it could also highlight his clinical finishing ability.
No Wolves player has had more shots on target, according to the Opta Heatmaps tool, and he leads the team with 9 big chances created.
As Wolves face West Ham United in Gameweek 15, Strand Larsen could maintain his strong form. With a budget-friendly price and just 4% ownership, he offers excellent value for money.
Bournemouth's Brazilian forward, Evanilson, has been quietly impressive this season. With 4 goals and 4 assists, he has earned 59 FPL points. His xG of 4.84 indicates he has been a little unlucky not to have scored more.
In the last 6 gameweeks, only Cunha (49 points) has returned more FPL points, as shown in the Opta Stats Sandbox, despite playing extra minutes.
With an away fixture against Ipswich Town in Gameweek 15, Evanilson could be poised for a productive performance. Owned by just 3.2% of managers, he is a true differential option.
Aston Villa's French full-back, Lucas Digne, has been a consistent performer this season. Although he hasn't scored yet, Digne has provided 3 FPL assists and kept 2 clean sheets, amassing 41 points. His attacking potential is clear, with an impressive 10 big chances created. With a home fixture against Southampton in Gameweek 15, Digne could be in line for returns at both ends of the pitch.
As shown in his projected points over the next 4 gameweeks on the FPL Plus Chrome extension, Villa's favourable run of fixtures makes him a smart move for the next two gameweeks, before facing Manchester City.
Liverpool's Scottish left-back, Andrew Robertson, has been a reliable FPL asset for years. Although he hasn't registered any attacking returns so far this season, Robertson has been part of 6 clean sheets, earning 47 FPL points. His xA of 2.21 indicates he has been unfortunate not to have any assists, the fifth highest among defenders, as shown in the Opta Stats Sandbox.
With Liverpool hosting Everton in the Merseyside derby, Robertson could be primed for a big haul. Owned by just 5.8% of managers, he is a differential that could offer great rewards.
These five players offer exciting differential options for FPL managers looking to climb the rankings. With a mix of attacking threat and defensive stability, they provide various routes to FPL success.
As always, consider your team structure and long-term plans when making transfers, but don't be afraid to take a calculated risk on these low-ownership gems. They could be the key to unlocking your team's potential in Gameweek 15 and beyond.
