A home encounter with AFC Bournemouth gives Matheus Cunha (£7.0m) the opportunity to reward his huge number of new owners in Gameweek 13 of Fantasy Premier League.
The Wolverhampton Wanderers forward is the most-bought player ahead of Friday’s 18:30 GMT deadline, transferred in by more than 620,000 managers on the back of two successive double-figure returns.
Cunha takes his place in a team that line up in a 3-4-3 formation, with Mohamed Salah (£13.1m) handed the armband and Cole Palmer (£10.9m) named as vice-captain.
Bart Verbruggen (Brighton) £4.5m
Brighton & Hove Albion’s goalkeeper offers the potential of save points at the very least at home to Southampton. Verbruggen has earned seven points from stops alone in the last five Gameweeks, in addition to a clean sheet and two bonus points.
Gabriel (Arsenal) £6.2m
Providing he shakes off a knock, Arsenal’s Brazilian offers huge potential at both ends of the pitch at West Ham United. Gabriel is the second top-scoring defender in Fantasy this season, amassing 51 points thanks to two goals, four clean sheets and four bonus points.
Diogo Dalot (Man Utd) £5.2m
A role as a left wing-back under Manchester United's new head coach Ruben Amorim lifts Dalot’s attacking potential at home to Everton. The Portuguese’s prospects of a clean sheet also look encouraging, with his visitors failing to score in each of their previous three matches.
Ola Aina (Forest) £4.8m
A home encounter with Ipswich Town gives the Nottingham Forest full-back the chance to continue his fine start to 2024/25. Aina has a goal and four clean sheets to his name and has earned bonus points on three of the four occasions that Forest have recorded a shutout.
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) £13.1m
Liverpool’s Egyptian has established a 36-point lead at the top of the player standings and delivered EIGHT double-figure hauls in his 12 appearances under Arne Slot. The Reds entertain a Manchester City side who have conceded a league-high 21 big chances – or situations where the player is expected to score – over the last four Gameweeks.
Cole Palmer (Chelsea) £10.9m
His form at Stamford Bridge marks Palmer out as a major captaincy contender against Aston Villa this weekend. The Chelsea star has amassed 43 points across his last four home outings, producing five goals, an assist and only one blank.
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) £10.2m
Arsenal’s winger looks back to his best following the recent return to action of playmaker Martin Odegaard (£8.2m). Saka has produced a goal and an assist in each of his last two appearances in all competitions, including a 13-point haul against Forest last time out.
Son Heung-min (Spurs) £9.9m
The South Korean’s home form looks ominous for his visitors Fulham this weekend. Son is Tottenham Hotspur’s top-scoring player in such contests this season, producing 42 points in six home outings thanks to three goals and four assists.
Matheus Cunha (Wolves) £7.0m
Wolves’ talisman has four goals, three assists, 43 points and NO blanks over the last four Gameweeks.
Yoane Wissa (Brentford) £6.1m
At a cost of only £6.1m, Wissa offers a cheaper route into the Brentford attack than midfielder Bryan Mbeumo (£7.9m) against Leicester City. The DR Congo international has delivered a double-figure haul in three of his four home outings in 2024/25, averaging 10.5 points per match in those encounters.
Joao Pedro (Brighton) £5.6m
Brighton’s Brazilian has made an immediate impact since returning from injury, with double-digit returns in back-to-back Gameweeks. Joao Pedro has averaged 7.0 points per match this season, joint-top with Erling Haaland (£15.1m) among forwards in Fantasy.
