Bryan Mbeumo (captain), Brentford, £8.2m – Wolves (a)
Mbeumo has six returns in his past five games and would have hauled more if not for a rare penalty miss last week.
He takes on a Wolves side who have conceded seven goals in the previous three games.
At this point, Mbeumo might be the most obvious FPL pick. He’s been involved in 43% of his side’s goals, so feels about
Kevin de Bruyne, Manchester City, £9.5m – Southampton (a)
De Bruyne has had two double digit hauls in the past four weeks.
He’s started the past five games, so worries about his fitness should not be an issue and the Belgian only has three league games left in his City career.
If he’s going out with a bang, this game against one of the worst teams in Premier League history
Bryan Mbeumo (captain), Brentford, £8.1m – Manchester United (h)
You don’t need much of a reason to pick Mbeumo, FPL’s second-highest points scorer.
But the situation this week is a dream scenario.
Manchester United are almost certainly going to put out a weakened team, with their focus on the Europa League, and it is not like they have been great.
Mbeumo is in form, he takes penalties, is Brentford’s talisman
Robert Sanchez, Chelsea, keeper, £4.5m – Everton (h)
Visitors Everton only have four goals in their past six games and their 10 big chances is the third lowest in the league.
Trent Alexander-Arnold, Liverpool, £7.2m – Tottenham (h)
This might be one of the last times we can pick maybe the greatest FPL defensive asset of all time – if rumours of a summer move to Real Madrid are true.
Kaoru Mitoma, Brighton, £6.5m – Leicester (h)
Backing a forward player against Leicester pays off almost every week and Mitoma is easily Brighton’s most reliable midfielder.
The most shots, shots in the box, on target, key passes, xG, goals – I could go on.
Newcastle’s Murphy had a haul from the flanks against the Foxes, now it is Mitoma’s turn.
Mohamed Salah, Liverpool, £13.8m – West Ham (h)
It is
Emi Martinez, Aston Villa, keeper, £5m – Nottingham Forest (h)
The Argentine kept just his fourth clean sheet of the season in Wednesday’s win at Brighton but he is a differential keeper option for this week and the rest of the season.
Villa face goal-shy Southampton next week before a double in 33.
Forest are not an easy opponent for Villa but they are definitely not as threatening without injured
David Raya, Arsenal, keeper, £5.5m – Fulham (h)
Raya has four clean sheets in his past seven and Arsenal have the second-most clean sheets (11) this season. There could be a few clean sheets knocking about this week and this game is one of them.
Josko Gvardiol, Manchester City, £6m – Leicester City (h)
I know City can’t keep a clean sheet this season but surely they will against a

Mohamed Salah (captain), Liverpool, £13.8m – Southampton (h)
One of the easiest captain choices of the season, I’m expecting at least two returns.
Cole Palmer (vice captain), Chelsea, £11.1m – Leicester (h)
Despite blanking in Chelsea’s 4-0 win last gameweek, you just can’t ignore Palmer in what should be another comfortable victory at Stamford Bridge.
Another blank and there’s a conversation to be had about selling him, but he had
Bryan Mbeumo, Brentford, £8m – Everton (h)
What was I thinking, leaving Mbeumo out of the team of the week last time as he scored 14 points away at Leicester?
He’s now only 11 points behind Palmer for the season and this week’s game against Everton could turn into another bonanza, with David Moyes’ visitors involved in two 2-2 draws in their past three.
Mohamed Salah (vice captain), Liverpool,
