The Scout is tipping five players to produce big points in Gameweek 13 of Fantasy Premier League.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (ARS) £10.9m

The Arsenal striker has been a big success this season, despite mainly playing on the left wing.

Aubameyang has seven goals and two assists in his 12 Gameweek appearances.

His total of 67 points leaves him third among FPL forwards ahead of his trip to AFC Bournemouth.

While he has been unable to find the net in his last two matches, Aubameyang’s away form suggests he can return to the scoresheet on Sunday.

Reliable on the road

The 29-year-old has scored four times on his travels this term.

Only Harry Kane (£12.4m), with five, can better that record, and the Tottenham Hotspur striker has played more than double the minutes.

Indeed, Aubameyang has been far more prolific as an FPL option in away fixtures.

He has averaged 7.6 points per match (ppm) on the road, compared with 4.1 ppm at home.

Vulnerable defence

His underlying statistics point to him being a striker in form.

Aubameyang has found the net every 88.5 minutes this season, quicker than any other player with more than one goal.

AFC Bournemouth’s defensive record at Vitality Stadium further raises his case for consideration.

They have managed just one clean sheet in their last five home matches.

Aubameyang has the away form to profit from the Cherries’ defensive frailties at their home ground and deliver big points again.
