Price Changes: Market Movers and Shakers

In today's Fantasy Premier League market, we've seen a total of 6 price changes, with one player rising and five experiencing a fall. Let's delve into the details of these fluctuations and what they mean for FPL managers.

Price Rises 📈

Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool, Defender) - £6.5m

Liverpool's defensive stalwart, Virgil van Dijk, has seen his price increase to £6.5m. The Dutch centre-back has been a consistent performer for the Reds, amassing 116 points so far this season. His recent form has been particularly impressive, with two clean sheets in his last three matches.

Van Dijk's upcoming fixtures look promising, with home games against Fulham and West Ham in the next two gameweeks. However, managers should be aware of tougher tests on the horizon, with matches against Tottenham and Chelsea in gameweeks 34 and 35 respectively.

In his last three outings, van Dijk has scored 17 points, including a stellar 8-point haul in the recent 1-0 victory over Everton. His ability to contribute bonus points makes him an attractive option for FPL managers looking to invest in Liverpool's defence.

Price Falls 📉

Chris Wood (Nottingham Forest, Forward) - £7.1m

Nottingham Forest's Chris Wood has seen his price drop to £7.1m. The New Zealand international is currently flagged with a hip injury, with a 75% chance of playing in the next fixture. This uncertainty has likely contributed to his price fall.

Wood's recent form has been underwhelming, with just 4 points from his last two starts. He was an unused substitute in Forest's 1-0 win over Manchester United, which may concern potential owners. However, with 174 points this season, he remains a popular choice, owned by 36.1% of managers.

Forest's upcoming fixtures are mixed, with a tough away trip to Tottenham in gameweek 33 sandwiched between more favourable matches against Aston Villa and Everton.

Justin Kluivert (Bournemouth, Midfielder) - £6.2m

Bournemouth's Justin Kluivert has dropped to £6.2m amid injury concerns. The Dutch midfielder is currently dealing with a muscle injury and has a 50% chance of featuring in the next game.

Kluivert's recent performances have been inconsistent, with a 5-point return against Tottenham followed by a 2-point outing against Brentford. He missed Bournemouth's most recent fixture, a 2-1 defeat to Ipswich.

The Cherries have a mixed run of fixtures ahead, with a potentially tricky away game at West Ham followed by more appealing home matches against Fulham and Crystal Palace.

Cody Gakpo (Liverpool, Forward) - £7.3m

Liverpool's Cody Gakpo has seen his price fall to £7.3m. The Dutch forward has struggled for consistent game time recently, making just two substitute appearances in his last three matches.

Gakpo's lack of minutes is a concern for FPL managers, with the forward scoring just 2 points in his last three games. Despite Liverpool's favourable upcoming fixtures against Fulham and West Ham, Gakpo's place in the starting lineup remains uncertain.

Low Ownership Price Falls

Kyle Walker-Peters (Southampton, Defender) - £4.2m Carlos Echeverri (Manchester City, Midfielder) - £5.9m

These low-ownership players have also experienced price drops but are unlikely to impact most FPL teams due to their minimal selection percentages.
