With the second Fantasy Premier League Wildcard available, The Scout reviews the top targets to consider for the chip.
Eden Hazard (CHE) £10.7m
The Belgian can justify his tag as a Fantasy heavyweight over the second half of the season.
Hazard returned to the Chelsea attack in the 2-2 draw with Arsenal in Gameweek 22 and fired six shots inside the penalty area.
And a converted spot-kick ended a run of five starts without a goal.
Morata benefit
The recent return to action of Alvaro Morata (£10.5m) can help Hazard regain his FPL form.
In his last six Gameweek starts behind the striker in Chelsea’s 3-5-1-1 formation, Hazard has supplied five goals, two assists and 56 points.
Part of only 8.2% of squads, Hazard now has the schedule to become a powerful differential.
He will be expected to return from a calf injury to face Leicester City at Stamford Bridge in Gameweek 23.
The Foxes have managed a single clean sheet away from home all season.
And after that Hazard’s subsequent four opponents each score only two in the Fixture Difficulty Rankings (FDR).
