The Scout is tipping five players to produce big points in Gameweek 32 of Fantasy Premier League.

Alexandre Lacazette (ARS) £8.3m

The in-form Frenchman is on course for the most prolific season of his Premier League career.

Lacazette has produced five goals, an assist and 43 points over Arsenal’s last six matches.

That has taken him to 13 goals for the campaign, just one short of his best total of 14, achieved in 2017/18. 

Lacazette also has the chance to post his highest ever Fantasy points total, with his current tally of 124 points only 42 behind the 166 he managed in 2018/19.

Arsenal’s upcoming run of opponents suggests the forward can surpass both feats.

35 WBA (H) 2

According to the Fixture Difficulty Ratings (FDR), three of the Gunners' next four matches score only two.

Indeed, Mikel Arteta’s men will face five of the current bottom eight sides over their final seven contests.

Impressive goal threat

The underlying statistics show Lacazette has been a huge influence on the Arsenal attack recently.

His 13 shots and eight shots in the box over the last four Gameweeks are both at least twice the total of any team-mate.

Lacazette's numbers also look strong when compared with those of all other players in Fantasy.

His total of six shots on target puts him among the top four players in that period, while his five big chances rank joint-first with Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.5m). 

Snapped up

A home encounter with Fulham this weekend has raised interest in Lacazette.

He is the third most-bought forward in the Gameweek, earning over 82,000 new owners.

The Cottagers visit north London in poor defensive form, with just a single clean sheet in their last six encounters.

That hands Lacazette the chance to get more goals and help the Frenchman to both his most prolific and best ever Fantasy season.
