The Scout is tipping five players to produce big points in Gameweek 15 of Fantasy Premier League.

Vladimir Coufal (WHU) £4.6m

The West Ham United right-back has enjoyed a strong start to his debut FPL campaign.

Coufal has combined three assists with three clean sheets over his 11 appearances.

He has averaged 4.1 points per match, more than any other West Ham defender this season.

The underlying numbers show Coufal has stepped up his creativity ahead of a favourable home encounter with Brighton & Hove Albion.

He has made a key pass every 36 minutes in the last four Gameweeks, more than twice as fast as his previous average of 79 minutes.

Coufal has created 10 chances from Gameweek 11 onwards, at least double that of any team-mate aside from the six of Jarrod Bowen (£6.4m). 

Indeed, that total puts him among the top 10 players in FPL, second only to the 11 of Andrew Robertson (£7.3m) among defenders.

Bonus appeal

In addition to his attacking potential, Coufal’s defensive work also raises his output in Fantasy.

With 18 successful tackles, he has a team-leading total for the Hammers in 2020/21.

Successful tackles are looked upon kindly in the Bonus Points System (BPS), which determines bonus points in any given match.

As a result, Coufal has earned eight bonus points, joint-top with Lukasz Fabianski (£5.1m) for West Ham.

When that factor is combined with his improved creativity, Coufal looks poised for more success against Brighton this weekend.

Remember the Gameweek 15 deadline is at 11:00 GMT on Saturday 26 December.
