Crystal Palace’s Daniel Muñoz has been a hidden gem this season. Across 17 matches, he’s racked up 57 points from 1,446 minutes, making him a reliable defensive asset.
Not only has Muñoz delivered 2 goals and 2 assists in FPL, but his attacking stats also stand out. With an expected goals (xG) of 2.69 and 18 attempted assists, he’s been unlucky not to secure more attacking returns.
Looking ahead, Muñoz leads all defenders in projected points for the next three gameweeks, according to the Predicted Points & Stats tool.
Palace host Southampton in Gameweek 19—a promising fixture for both clean sheet potential and attacking contributions. With a projection of 5.6 points, Muñoz could be the differential defender your squad needs.
Eberechi Eze offers an intriguing midfield option for FPL managers. While his season has been relatively quiet—just 1 goal and 2 assists so far—his underlying stats suggest he’s been very unlucky. With an expected goals (xG) of 4.28 and expected assists (xA) of 2.43, Eze has the potential to turnaround his season.
Eze leads all Crystal Palace players in shots (47), as shown in his Opta Shotmap, and he’s also had 6 big chances. A home fixture against Southampton in Gameweek 19 could be the perfect opportunity for him to convert potential into points.
With a projection of 5.2 points, Eze might just be the differential midfielder your team needs.
Dominic Solanke has been quietly impressive this season, even as Spurs’ form has dipped. Over 15 games, he’s amassed 72 points from 1,331 minutes, solidifying his value as an FPL asset. With 6 goals and 5 assists, Solanke has demonstrated his all-around attacking potential.
His expected goals (xG) of 8.18 indicates he’s been slightly unfortunate not to score even more.
Paul Marshman, our Elite XI: Team Reveal manager—boasting six top 1k finishes and currently ranked in the top 25k—currently has Solanke in his front three.
Spurs travel to face Wolverhampton Wanderers in Gameweek 19, a fixture that offers Solanke the chance to add to his tally. With a projection of 5.0 points and ownership just under 10%, he’s an excellent differential option for FPL managers aiming to gain an edge.
Nottingham Forest’s Matz Sels could be the ideal replacement for managers looking to move on from Flekken, who picked up an injury against Brighton in Gameweek 18.
Sels has been impressive this season, securing 7 clean sheets—joint-top among goalkeepers alongside Raya and Pickford, according to the Opta Stats Sandbox.
Defensively, Forest have been solid, conceding just 19 goals—fewer than all but Arsenal (16) and Liverpool (17). With a favourable fixture against Everton in Gameweek 19 and a projected 4.4 points, Sels represents a budget-friendly differential option for FPL managers seeking value in goal.
Despite Manchester City’s inconsistent form, Phil Foden could be a viable replacement for Bruno Fernandes, who was sent off against Wolves in Gameweek 18.
Although limited to just 900 minutes this season, Foden has displayed glimpses of his potential with 1 goal and 1 assist. His underlying stats are more encouraging, with an expected goals (xG) of 2.48 and expected assists (xA) of 3.53, indicating he’s been unlucky not to deliver more returns.
City face Leicester in Gameweek 19, kicking off a favourable run of fixtures that places them top of the Fixture Analyser for attacking difficulty over the next four games. This stretch could see Foden explode as a differential pick for FPL managers.
In conclusion, these five differentials offer exciting opportunities to gain an edge in your FPL team. From defensive stability to attacking potential, each player brings something unique to the table. Consider integrating one or more of these hidden gems into your squad for Gameweek 19 and watch your team climb the rankings!
