João Pedro in, Alexander Isak out

João Pedro's Rise to Prominence

João Pedro has become a hot property in FPL, with over 933k managers bringing him in for Gameweek 4, as shown in the Transfer Analytics tool below.

The Brighton forward has impressed in his last three fixtures, scoring 18 points including 2 goals and 5 bonus points. His xFPL of 15.71 suggests he's slightly overperforming, but still offers excellent value at £5.7m.

Upcoming fixtures: IPS (H), NFO (A), CHE (A)

Isak's Uncertain Form

Alexander Isak, despite his popularity, has seen a mass exodus with over 622,000 transfers out.

The Newcastle striker has managed 16 points in his last three games, including 1 goal and 1 assist. His xFPL of 14.26 indicates he's performing close to expectations.

Upcoming fixtures: WOL (H), FUL (A), MCI (H)

Mohamed Salah in, Bukayo Saka out

Salah's Stellar Start

Mohamed Salah has been in scintillating form, amassing 41 points in his last three games with 3 goals and 3 assists. His xFPL of 28.42 suggests he's significantly overperforming, but his consistent returns make him a prime target for many managers.

It's no surprise that the Egyptian King tops the list for projected points over the next three gameweeks in the Predicted Points & Stats tool.

Upcoming fixtures: NFO (H), BOU (H), WOL (A)

Saka's Tough Fixtures

Bukayo Saka has been solid with 24 points in three games, including 1 goal and 3 assists. However, with tough fixtures ahead and an xFPL of 19.75, many managers are looking elsewhere.

According to the Fixture Planner tool, only Brentford have tougher fixtures than Arsenal in the next two gameweeks.

Upcoming fixtures: TOT (H), MCI (H), LEI (A)

Eberechi Eze in, Anthony Gordon out

Eze's Potential

Eberechi Eze has caught the eye of top managers, scoring 14 points in his last three games with 1 goal. His xFPL of 15.96 suggests he's underperforming and could offer more in the coming weeks.

The England international is included in Andrew Neave's current Wildcard draft. You can view the full team of the seven-time top 10k finisher in the Elite XI: Team Reveal feature.

Upcoming fixtures: LEI (H), MUN (A), EVE (A)

Gordon's Mixed Fortunes

Anthony Gordon has managed 15 points in three games, with 1 goal and 1 clean sheet. His xFPL of 14.84 indicates he's performing as expected, but managers are looking for more consistent returns.

Upcoming fixtures: WOL (H), FUL (A), MCI (H)

Danny Welbeck in, Alexander Isak out

Welbeck's Value Option

Danny Welbeck has emerged as a budget-friendly alternative, scoring 23 points in his last three games with 2 goals and 1 assist. His xFPL of 16.98 suggests he's overperforming, but at £5.7m, he offers excellent value.

Both Brighton forwards have been in excellent form, as highlighted in the comparison above from the Opta Heatmaps tool.

Upcoming fixtures: IPS (H), NFO (A), CHE (A)

João Pedro in, Dominic Solanke out

Solanke's Injury Concerns

Dominic Solanke is currently flagged with an ankle injury, with a 50% chance of playing in Gameweek 4. He's only featured in one game so far, scoring 2 points. His uncertain status has led many managers to look for alternatives.

Upcoming fixtures: ARS (H), BRE (A), MUN (A)

These transfers reflect the dynamic nature of FPL, with managers quick to react to form, fixtures, and injury news. As always, it's crucial to consider your overall team structure and long-term strategy when making transfers.
