Alisson Becker

  • Position: Goalkeeper
  • Cost: £5.5m
  • Fixture: Ipswich Town (H)
  • Predicted Points: 5.0

Alisson has been a model of consistency for Liverpool this season. With 6 clean sheets and 30 saves in just 13 games, his reliability in goal is unmatched.

The Reds’ upcoming home fixture against Ipswich Town at Anfield offers a great chance for another clean sheet, with our Predicted Points & Stats tool giving him 60% chance, making him an appealing pick for FPL managers.

He’s already earned a spot in Tim Walpole’s team—one of our Elite XI: Team Reveal managers with an incredible 7 top 5k finishes. Tim pairs Alisson with Virgil van Dijk in a Liverpool defensive double-up, showcasing his trust in the Reds’ backline.

Trent Alexander-Arnold

  • Position: Defender
  • Cost: £7.3m
  • Fixture: Ipswich Town (H)
  • Predicted Points: 6.1

The 25-year-old England international remains a vital asset in both Liverpool's defence and attack. With 1 goal, 5 assists, and 8 clean sheets this season, his FPL output showcases his versatility.

Defenders ranked by big chance created

Alexander-Arnold has created 12 big chances—the most of any defender, according to the Opta Stats Sandbox—making him a constant attacking threat.

With a favourable home fixture against Ipswich, he has the potential to deliver points at both ends of the pitch.

Daniel Muñoz

  • Position: Defender
  • Cost: £4.8m
  • Fixture: Brentford (H)
  • Predicted Points: 4.4

The Colombian right-back has been a revelation for Crystal Palace this season. With 2 goals, 2 assists, and 6 clean sheets, Muñoz offers excellent value for money. His attacking potential is evident from his 11 shots on target, making him an intriguing option for FPL managers.

Pedro Porro

  • Position: Defender
  • Cost: £5.4m
  • Fixture: Leicester City (H)
  • Predicted Points: 4.5

Tottenham's Spanish full-back has endured a stop-start 2024/25 season but has shown his value when on the pitch. With 2 goals and 4 assists so far, Porro has been a key attacking outlet for Spurs, starting their last 4 matches.

Defenders in the Premier League ranked by shots

His 29 total scoring attempts—second only to Gvardiol according to the Opta Stats Sandbox—highlight his attacking mindset.

A home fixture against Leicester presents a good opportunity for Porro to add to his tally and deliver for FPL managers.

Mohamed Salah (Captain)

  • Position: Midfielder
  • Cost: £13.7m
  • Fixture: Ipswich Town (H)
  • Predicted Points: 10.8

The Egyptian King needs no introduction. With an incredible 18 goals and 13 assists this season, Salah remains the gold standard in FPL.

While he’s gone without returns in his last two matches, the Algorithm strongly backs him as captain for the home fixture against Ipswich Town, projecting a massive 10.8 points. Anfield could be the stage for yet another Salah masterclass.

Morgan Rogers

  • Position: Midfielder
  • Cost: £5.5m
  • Fixture: West Ham United (A)
  • Predicted Points: 4.5

The young Aston Villa midfielder has been turning heads this season. With 6 goals and 5 assists, Rogers offers excellent value in the mid-price range.

His 36 total scoring attempts show his attacking intent, and he could be a shrewd budget pick for the upcoming gameweek.

Dejan Kulusevski

  • Position: Midfielder
  • Cost: £6.4m
  • Fixture: Leicester City (H)
  • Predicted Points: 6.1

Swedish international Dejan Kulusevski has been a standout performer for Tottenham this season. With 6 goals, 4 assists, and 8 big chances created, his creativity is undeniable. His upcoming home fixture against Leicester City has earned him a spot in this week's Top 5 Differentials blog.

Son Heung-min

  • Position: Midfielder
  • Cost: £9.8m
  • Fixture: Leicester City (H)
  • Predicted Points: 7.4

South Korean superstar Son Heung-min has flown under the radar in FPL this season. Despite this, he’s delivered 6 goals and 6 assists in 19 games, showcasing his ability to contribute in multiple ways.

Spurs and Leicester stats for the last 5 games

While Spurs' overall performance has been underwhelming in the last five games, Son has shown glimpses of promise in their recent Match Centre stats, leading the team with one goal, an xG of 1.5, and five shots on target.

Spurs face Leicester next—a team struggling defensively, with just 1 clean sheet and 48 goals conceded, the third most in the league—making it a prime opportunity for a turnaround.

Ollie Watkins

  • Position: Forward
  • Cost: £8.9m
  • Fixture: West Ham United (A)
  • Predicted Points: 5.8

Ollie Watkins has had a somewhat inconsistent season so far. Despite this, the England international has still managed to deliver, scoring 10 goals and providing 4 assists.

His xG of 12.94 suggest he has been slightly unlucky not to score more, indicating potential for improvement. With a favourable fixture against West Ham, Watkins could be poised to make up for his underlying statistical underperformance.

Alexander Isak

  • Position: Forward
  • Cost: £9.5m
  • Fixture: Southampton (A)
  • Predicted Points: 5.8

Alexander Isak has been in phenomenal form for Newcastle this season, scoring 15 goals and providing 5 assists.

FPL player stats for ownership

It’s no surprise he is owned by 100% of our Elite XI: Team Reveal managers, who collectively boast an incredible record of over 80 top 10k finishes.

Gameweek 22 against Bournemouth marked the first time since Gameweek 13 that Isak failed to register an attacking return. However, an away fixture against Southampton offers the perfect opportunity for him to start a new streak.

Jean-Philippe Mateta

  • Position: Forward
  • Cost: £7.3m
  • Fixture: Brentford (H)
  • Predicted Points: 4.9

Jean-Philippe Mateta of Crystal Palace has been quietly making an impact after a slow start to the season. With 4 goals in his last 3 matches, he’s emerging as a key attacking threat. His expected goals (xG) of 9.74 indicate he’s been slightly unlucky not to surpass his current total of 8 goals this season.

Most popular transfer replacements for N Jackson in FPL

This week, Mateta is the third most transferred-in forward, with 165,233 managers adding him to their squads. According to the Transfer Analytics tool, he is also the second most popular replacement for Nicolas Jackson, who holds the title of the most-sold forward this week.
