1. João Pedro → Cody Gakpo

Managers are moving from Brighton's Pedro (£5.5m) to Liverpool's Gakpo (£7.6m), who has been in excellent form with two goals, one assist, and three bonus points in his last three matches.

Gakpo’s promising double gameweek (bou, eve), followed by Wolves (H), makes him an attractive option. His xFPL of 20.7 suggests sustainable returns, while João Pedro has struggled with just four points in his last three games.

2. João Pedro → Iliman Ndiaye

Another switch away from João Pedro sees managers opting for Everton's Ndiaye (£5.5m).

The budget forward has impressed with two goals and four bonus points in his last three appearances. His double gameweek (LEI, LIV) makes him a viable pick, though tougher fixtures follow with Crystal Palace (A) and Manchester United (H).

3. Chris Wood → Cody Gakpo

Nottingham Forest's Chris Wood is being swapped out for Gakpo.

Wood has delivered two goals and six bonus points in his last three matches, but faces a tough upcoming schedule (Brighton H, Fulham A, Newcastle A). His 23 points exceed his expected 18.11 xFPL, hinting at overperformance.

4. Anthony Gordon → Bryan Mbeumo

Brentford’s Mbeumo (£7.8m) is gaining interest despite Gordon’s decent form.

Mbeumo has scored once in his last three matches and boasts an xFPL of 20.39, suggesting potential for higher returns. His next fixtures (Tottenham H, West Ham A, Leicester A) look promising, while Gordon (£7.7m) faces a tough stretch with Manchester City and Liverpool in the next three games.

5. Anthony Gordon → Justin Kluivert

Bournemouth’s in-form Kluivert (£5.7m) is another popular pick.

He has delivered five goals, two assists, and six bonus points in his last three matches. While his 43 points compared to a 24.61 xFPL indicate some overperformance, his upcoming fixtures (Liverpool H, Southampton A, Wolves H) provide opportunities to maintain his form.
