Martin Dúbravka gets the nod between the sticks for Newcastle United's home clash against Bournemouth.
Since stepping in for the injured Nick Pope, Dúbravka has played six games, keeping five clean sheets, conceding just one goal, and racking up an impressive 37 FPL points. According to the Opta stats Sandbox tool, this is only 11 points fewer than Pope's total from 15 games. At a budget-friendly price, Dúbravka represents excellent value for money.
Nottingham Forest's Ola Aina has been a standout performer this season, currently ranking as the top-scoring defender with 97 points. This includes 9 clean sheets and 2 goals.
Despite his impressive form, he is only the fifth most-owned defender among the top 1 million FPL managers, with 35.2% having him in their team, according to the Insights Live tool.
Aina’s upcoming home fixture against Southampton looks promising, with a 60% chance of a clean sheet, as shown by the Predicted Points and Stats tool, further boosting his appeal.
Joining his teammate Ola Aina in defence is Murillo. The Nottingham Forest centre-back has scored 80 points this season, thanks to 8 clean sheets and a goal.
With a low ownership of just 3.1%, he’s featured in this week’s Top 5 Differentials blog.
His knack for earning bonus points (11 so far) makes him a compelling option, particularly with a favourable home fixture against Southampton.
Arsenal's Gabriel rounds out our defensive trio. With 84 points, 6 clean sheets, and 3 goals this season, he's proven to be a threat at both ends of the pitch. While Arsenal face an away trip to Aston Villa, Gabriel's goal threat from set-pieces could prove crucial.
Our captain for Gameweek 22 is Chelsea’s Cole Palmer. The young midfielder has been in sensational form, racking up 163 points with 14 goals and 7 assists.
A glance at Chelsea’s last five games in the Match Centre underscores his talismanic qualities for the Blues. Palmer leads the team for goals (3) and shots on target (8), while ranking second for xG (1.6) and attempted assists (15). With a home fixture against Wolves, he looks primed for another big haul.
Manchester City maestro Kevin De Bruyne makes the cut despite limited playing time this season. With 2 goals and 5 assists in just 913 minutes, his impact is undeniable. His ability to create big chances (10 so far) could be crucial in City's game against Ipswich Town.
Liverpool’s talisman, Mohamed Salah, needs no introduction. With an incredible 211 points, 18 goals, and 13 assists, he has been the standout player this season.
Despite facing a tougher fixture than Cole Palmer—an away trip to Brentford—Salah is the preferred captaincy choice for 61.5% of the Elite XI: Team Reveal managers, who boast a combined 83 top 10k finishes. In comparison, Palmer is backed by 38.5%.
Fulham’s Alex Iwobi offers excellent value in midfield. With 102 points, 7 goals, and 3 assists, he has been a consistent performer this season. His 41 shots and 41 chances created highlight his all-round attacking threat.
An away fixture against Leicester City presents a promising opportunity for returns, earning him a spot in this week’s Top 5 Differentials blog.
Nottingham Forest’s Chris Wood leads the line for our Algorithm-selected team. With 123 points, 13 goals, and 28 bonus points, Wood has been in excellent form during the 2024/25 season.
He features in the Big Data: Team Reveal tool’s squad, optimised for the next five gameweeks—an excellent reference point if you’re considering using your second Wildcard.
With a favourable home fixture against Southampton in Gameweek 22, the potential upside of the New Zealander is hard to ignore.
Newcastle’s Alexander Isak has been sensational since Gameweek 14, averaging an impressive 1.6 goals and 12.1 FPL points per game. With a home fixture against Bournemouth, he looks poised for another standout performance.
Completing our front three is Chelsea’s Nicolas Jackson. With 100 points, 9 goals, and 5 assists, Jackson has displayed flashes of brilliance this season.
N. Jackson registered 7 shots, with 3 on target, accumulating an xG of 1.42 against Bournemouth... yet couldn't find the back of the net. 🤦♂️ pic.twitter.com/C2oZ3JcDee

However, his xG of 10.93 indicates he’s been unlucky not to score more, leaving FPL managers frustrated in recent weeks. A home fixture against Wolves offers a prime opportunity for him to turn things around.
Here’s the full Fantasy Premier League team in the Future Planner tool, selected using the Fantasy Football Fix algorithm.
This team combines premium assets and value picks across all positions to optimise FPL points. While some choices may seem unconventional, the underlying statistics and projected points indicate this could be a high-scoring lineup for Gameweek 22.
