We recommend who we think are candidates to go into your Fantasy team. Ranging from all positions.
Goalkeepers
Schmeichel is easily the in form GK at the moment in the Premier League with clean sheets in his last four outings, and with three home games against Everton, Watford and Norwich and a trip to Villa Park in their next four matches there’s no reason why the Leicester stopper can’t keep his good run going.
Henderson has been one of the surprise packages this season along with his club Sheffield Utd. The GK on-loan from Manchester Utd is part of one the best back lines in the league so far this season. With favourable fixtures coming up, Henderson is a cheaper option for Fantasy players to put in their team.
Defenders
Expensive I know, but Andy Robertson just can’t be overlooked. Not only as a defender will he get you clean sheets but as such an attacking threat also he is likely to contribute towards goals at the attacking end of the pitch as well. Robertson has either a goal or an assist in four of his last five appearances in the league.
Like his teammate Dean Henderson, Lundstram has been one of the surprises of the season after coming up from the Championship. Lundstram leads the scoring charts for a defender with 70 points thanks to his three goals and one assist so far this season, along with Sheffield Utd’s mean defense. Sheffield Utd have a potentially nice run of fixtures up until Christmas so I see no reason why they can’t keep their impressive form up.
Midfielders
Mané is the face of Liverpool’s title charge right now. With Salah struggling with an ankle injury and Firmino struggling to consistently find the back of the net, Mané is main man for the league leaders currently. Liverpool play Brighton, Everton and Watford at home in three of their next four league games and I’m sure Mané will be chumping at the bit to continue his fine run of form.
With the shock managerial appointment at Spurs of José Mourinho, don’t be surprised to see Spurs making their way up the table with the help of Son. He is a cheaper option to transfer into your team rather than the likes of Salah or Mané, but if Son continues to put in performances like he did against West Ham his value will continue to rise so get him in your team quickly.
Forwards
Jamie Vardy just can’t be ignored by Fantasy Football players. He is the league’s leading goal scorer with 12 goals and the overall Fantasy Football top scorer hitting 104 points so far. With Leicester’s good fixtures coming up and Vardy only the fourth most expensive striker, Fantasy players just have to find a way to get Vardy into their team.
With Sergio Aguero’s injury against Chelsea potentially serious, this could be the opportunity for players who have Aguero in their team to introduce Kane. Kane has had an inconsistent start to the season, but with Jose Mourinho in at Spurs this could be the lift Kane needs to get him back firing on all cylinders. Expect Kane to push on from here and get over twenty league goals this season.
