Evanilson made it into last Gameweek’s Top 5 Differentials with the warning that his minutes might be a risk. The advice was to consider waiting until Blank Gameweek 29—but those who went early were rewarded! The Brazilian striker returned from injury, started, and scored against Spurs.
✅ Scored on his first start after injury
— Fantasy Football Fix (@FantasyFootyFix) March 11, 2025
✅ Favourable fixtures: BRE (H), IPS (H) & WHU (A)
✅ A huge differential—just 1.6% owned
Will you be bringing in Evanilson for BGW29? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/EopBtd29zU
With six goals and four assists in just 1,466 minutes, he has been a consistent threat. His expected goals (xG) of 7.42 suggest he’s been slightly unlucky not to score even more.
Bournemouth host Brentford in Gameweek 29, a fixture that offers another opportunity for returns.
More importantly, the Fixture Difficulty Rating tool highlights Bournemouth’s strong run until Gameweek 35, ranking them second for attacking potential.
At just £5.6m and with 2.2% ownership, Evanilson could be the differential that gives your team the edge.
Alejandro Garnacho has had a disappointing season by his own standards. Last season, he scored seven goals and registered seven assists, but this time around, he has managed just three of each.
He has struggled for regular game time under Amorim but impressed in his last two starts, playing the full 90 minutes against Arsenal in the league and Real Sociedad in Europe, where he provided an assist.
At just 20 years old, Garnacho is still developing, but his attacking numbers stand out when he plays. According to the Opta Stats Sandbox, he leads all Manchester United players in expected goals (0.44), shots (3.38), shots on target (1.32), and big chances (0.80) per 90 minutes. These stats suggest he should have scored more this season.
With United facing Leicester City in Gameweek 29, Garnacho could be a high-upside differential. However, United’s fixtures take a sharp turn for the worse straight after, with Forest, Man City, and Newcastle up next.
Owned by just 4.9% of managers, he is a prime one-week punt, particularly for those on a Free Hit or planning a Wildcard in Gameweek 30.
Jeremy Doku has been a lively presence for Manchester City when given the opportunity. The Belgian winger has started the last three games and, despite playing just 1,071 minutes this season, has still managed three goals and four FPL assists.
He averages 5.79 touches in the opposition’s box per game, a number bettered only by Haaland (6.48) and Savinho (5.87) among City players.
As shown in the Match Centre tool, his average position against Nottingham Forest placed him as City’s most advanced player. However, his crossing remains inconsistent, averaging 2.16 per game with just 0.42 being successful. This highlights his frustrating mix of attacking potential and end-product struggles.
With City facing Brighton in Gameweek 29, Doku could be in line for another start and a chance to convert his promising performances into FPL points. Owned by just 1.5% of managers, he is a true differential pick.
Neco Williams has been a reliable performer for Nottingham Forest this season, contributing at both ends of the pitch.
With nine clean sheets, a goal, and an assist, he has offered steady FPL returns. His xG of 2.34 suggests he has been unlucky not to have found the net more often.
Forest face Ipswich Town in Gameweek 29, providing a solid opportunity for both defensive and attacking returns.
Beyond that, they begin a favourable four-match run, ranking second for defensive potential on the Fixture Difficulty Rating tool.
At just £4.4m and with only 2.5% ownership, the 23-year-old could be a smart budget differential.
Diogo Dalot has been a consistent presence in Manchester United’s defence this season. While he has yet to score in the league, he found the net in Thursday’s Europa League match against Real Sociedad.
His attacking stats suggest he has been unlucky not to score domestically, with 21 shots, five on target, an xG of 1.75, and two big chances. With United facing Leicester City in Gameweek 29, Dalot has the potential to deliver at both ends of the pitch.
Owned by just 5.9% of managers, he offers a solid differential option in defence. Seven-time top 10k finisher Mark Mansfield recently included Dalot in his Free Hit draft, stating, "...worth a punt on Free Hit in the hope that Man United can keep a clean sheet, and he gets an attacking return. Leicester haven’t scored at home in some crazy number of games.”
In conclusion, these five differentials offer a mix of potential and proven performance, all with favourable fixtures in Blank Gameweek 29.
By incorporating one or more of these players into your FPL team, you could gain a significant advantage over your rivals. Remember, in the world of Fantasy Premier League, sometimes it's the under-the-radar picks that make all the difference. Good luck, managers!
