SEVEN players who face promoted clubs in Gameweek 31 of Fantasy Premier League are included in the Scout Selection.
The 3-4-3 formation includes a triple-up on Newcastle United’s Nick Pope (£4.9m), Jacob Murphy (£5.0m) and Alexander Isak (£9.5m) for their visit to Leicester City.
Meanwhile, Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Rayan Ait-Nouri (£4.8m) and Jorgen Strand Larsen (£5.3m) travel to Ipswich Town, and Tottenham Hotspur's Pedro Porro (£5.3m) and Son Heung-min (£9.7m) are at home to Southampton.
Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah (£13.8m) retains the armband, with Isak making a very strong claim as vice-captain.
Graham Potter (£0.5m) is the Assistant Manager for West Ham United's home match against AFC Bournemouth thanks to his potential to earn table bonus.

The table-bonus element of the Assistant Manager chip earns your Assistant Manager extra points for each win or draw against an opponent who is at least FIVE places higher than them in the Premier League table before the Gameweek starts. West Ham sit in 16th place, while the Cherries are in 10th spot in the Premier League table.

Nick Pope (Newcastle) £4.9m
A visit to Leicester gives the Newcastle goalkeeper the chance to claim back-to-back clean sheets on his travels. The Foxes have failed to score in each of their last seven matches, increasing the appeal of investing in the Magpies’ key players ahead of their Double Gameweek 32 (DGW32).
Pedro Porro (Spurs) £5.3m
A home encounter with Southampton suggests the Spurs full-back can add to his two goals and five assists this season. Porro’s 35 shots and 44 chances created both rank among the top three defenders in 2024/25 Fantasy.
Daniel Munoz (Crystal Palace) £5.1m
Three goals, five assists and nine clean sheets highlights the Colombian’s huge potential for points at both ends of the pitch at home to Brighton.
Rayan Ait-Nouri (Wolves) £4.8m
The Algerian has matched Munoz's three goals and five assists, while his potential for defensive returns has improved markedly under Vitor Pereira. All five of Wolves' clean sheets this season have come since the Portuguese arrived as head coach in Gameweek 17.
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) £13.8m
Although his visit to Fulham is perhaps the tougher of the two fixtures, Salah’s relentless form on the road shows why he earns the armband ahead of Isak. Liverpool’s Egyptian has delivered a double-figure haul in each of his last four away matches, amassing 55 points.
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) £10.3m
Arsenal’s talisman is the No 1 target in the Gameweek after marking his return from injury with a goal against Fulham on Tuesday evening. Saka has earned 270,000+ transfers in for the Gunners’ visit to Everton, more than TWICE the total of any other player.
Son Heung-min (Spurs) £9.7m
Owned by just five per cent of managers, Spurs’ South Korean can be a great differential at home to Southampton this weekend. Son claimed his season-high 14 points in the reverse fixture in Gameweek 16, producing a goal and two assists in a 5-0 win.
Jacob Murphy (Newcastle) £5.0m
His form against this season’s promoted clubs shows why Murphy can be a bargain gem in Fantasy. He has amassed 32 points in his three starts against such opponents this season, scoring three goals and assisting two.
Alexander Isak (Newcastle) £9.5m
Hauls of 11, 17 and 13 points in his last three outings against promoted clubs underlines the Swede’s huge armband potential. Isak is being assessed ahead of Newcastle's visit to Leicester after being withdrawn early against Brentford in midweek as a precautionary measure.
Jean-Philippe Mateta (Crystal Palace) £7.6m
Mateta had blanked just ONCE in eight league outings prior to his recent spell on the sidelines, producing eight goals, an assist and 64 points.
Jorgen Strand Larsen (Wolves) £5.3m
The Norwegian has stepped up his output in the absence of the suspended Matheus Cunha (£6.8m). Strand Larsen has scored three goals and collected six bonus points over the last two Gameweeks, totalling 22 points.
