A home encounter with Brighton & Hove Albion hands Mason Mount (£7.7m) the chance to bring in another big return in Fantasy Premier League

The Chelsea midfielder has excelled at Stamford Bridge this season. Mount has scored five goals and supplied two assists in his four home starts, totalling 43 points.

Indeed, he has been involved in 44 per cent of the goals Chelsea have scored with him on the pitch this term, more than any team-mate.

Mount earns a place in a Selection that lines up in a 4-4-2 formation, with Mohamed Salah (£13.0m) handed the armband and Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.5m) named vice-captain.

David De Gea (MUN) £5.1m

Manchester United’s No 1 faces a Burnley side who have failed to score in their last three outings. De Gea has amassed 21 points in his three matches under Ralf Rangnick, combining two clean sheets with three save points and four bonus.

Joao Cancelo (MCI) £6.9m

Manchester City’s trip to Brentford suggests the full-back can deliver another explosive haul. Four of Cancelo’s five double-figure returns this season have come in away matches.

Reece James (CHE) £6.4m

Four goals, five assists and five clean sheets highlight his potential for points at both ends of the pitch against Brighton. At home, his 17 chances created are more than any other Chelsea player.

Sergio Reguilon (TOT) £5.3m

Playing as a wing-back, the Tottenham Hotspur defender has produced 33 points in his five starts under Antonio Conte. Reguilon visits Southampton on the back of one goal, an assist and three clean sheets under the Italian.

Kostas Tsimikas (LIV) £3.7m

Liverpool’s deputy left-back offers a budget-friendly route into their defence, with Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) suspended. Tsimikas has averaged seven points per start in 2021/22 Fantasy.

Mohamed Salah (LIV) £13.0m

Liverpool’s Egyptian faces a Leicester City side who have conceded at least twice in six of their last seven matches in all competitions. Away from home, Salah’s nine goals are four more than any other player this season.

Diogo Jota (LIV) £8.1m

The Portuguese has six goals and 47 points in his last six starts for Liverpool. Jota’s 16 shots and 15 shots in the box in his last four matches are both more than any other player in Fantasy.

Bernardo Silva (MCI) £7.6m

The Man City midfielder has been more reliable on the road in 2021/22, scoring five of his seven goals away from home. Bernardo has returned double-figure hauls in two of his last three away appearances. 

Mason Mount (CHE) £7.7m

At home, his 12 shots on target at home have been bettered by only three other players in Fantasy this season.

Cristiano Ronaldo (MUN) £12.5m

At home to Burnley, Man Utd’s Portuguese is among the top captain candidates for Gameweek 20. Ronaldo has produced 13 points in two of his seven home outings since returning to the Red Devils.

Michail Antonio (WHU) £7.7m

West Ham United’s forward visits Watford on the back of his first goal since Gameweek 9 last weekend. Antonio now faces the only side yet to keep a clean sheet this term.
