Price Changes: A Festive Flurry of FPL Fluctuations

As the festive period continues to shake up the Fantasy Premier League landscape, we've witnessed a significant number of price changes today. A total of 8 players have seen their values shift, with both risers and fallers making an impact on managers' strategies.

Price Rises ⬆️

Ola Aina (Nottingham Forest, Defender) Aina's price has risen to £5.1m, reflecting his recent impressive performances. The defender has been a key figure in Forest's backline, amassing 81 points so far this season. His last three fixtures have been particularly noteworthy, with a clean sheet and an assist against Brentford (15 points) and another clean sheet against Spurs (6 points). With upcoming fixtures against Everton and Wolves, Aina could continue to provide value for his 18.8% ownership.

Matz Sels (Nottingham Forest, Goalkeeper) Sels has seen his price increase to £4.8m after a string of solid performances. The goalkeeper has collected 79 points this season and has been crucial in Forest's recent defensive solidity. In his last three matches, Sels kept two clean sheets against Brentford and Spurs, earning 7 and 8 points respectively. With favourable fixtures against Everton and Wolves on the horizon, Sels could be a shrewd budget option for the 9.2% of managers who own him.

Price Falls ⬇️

Bukayo Saka (Arsenal, Midfielder) Saka's price has dropped to £10.3m, largely due to his recent injury concerns. The Arsenal midfielder is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury and is expected to return on March 8th. This extended absence has prompted many of his 16.7% owners to look elsewhere. Before his injury, Saka had amassed 107 points, but his last few appearances were less impactful, with just 4 points from his last two games.

Michael Keane (Everton, Defender) Keane's price has fallen to £4.0m, making him one of the cheapest defenders in the game. However, his lack of playing time is a concern for the 5.6% of managers who own him. Keane hasn't featured in Everton's last three matches, remaining an unused substitute. With tough fixtures against Tottenham and Brighton in the near future, it's difficult to see Keane offering much value in the short term.

Low Ownership Risers

Nikola Milenković (Nottingham Forest, Defender) - £4.7m

Low Ownership Fallers

Cristian Romero (Tottenham, Defender) - £4.9m Pau Torres (Aston Villa, Defender) - £4.3m Pablo Sarabia (Wolves, Midfielder) - £5.0m

These low ownership players offer interesting differential options for managers looking to gain an edge in their mini-leagues. However, their price changes reflect the volatile nature of their fantasy value, so careful consideration is advised before bringing them into your team.
