What number of Liverpool selections can you fit into your lineup for this round?
Jurgen Klopp's side have secured two consecutive victories , featuring a sizzling attacker in Hugo Ekitike preparing for a clash with Wolves who are tracking for a historically poor top-flight seasons on record.
If you've retained a portion of your Africa Cup of Nations transfers , with the funds to spend by replacing the unavailable Manchester United's playmaker, in that case Liverpool options must be the primary focus.
The team of the week is assembled using present Fantasy Premier League valuations to stay under a 100 million pound spending limit, simulating using a Free Hit chip.
Skipper Erling Haaland (32 points) , alongside the in-form pair of Bournemouth's forward (10 points) as well as Hugo Ekitike led the team to a respectable 82 points – enhanced by a 10-point performance from Antonee Robinson as a substitute.
David Raya, Arsenal, goalkeeper, £6m – vs Brighton (H).
Arsenal's defence had a brief dip in the wake of an injury to their Brazilian defender, but they have kept two clean sheets in their past four , boasting 9 to their name with not even half the season played.
The Emirates Stadium outfit have conceded in only three home games this season. Those goals came from a Manchester City superstar, a spectacular strike from Richarlison and a surprise goal from Tolu Arokodare.
Jurrien Timber (£6.5m) and Piero Hincapie (£5.5m), the Gunners – vs Brighton (H).
It's a three-pronged on the Arsenal defence.
They are the top defensive unit in the game, with a clean sheet in over 50% of their fixtures, they host a Brighton team who have failed to score in their last two matches.
The South Coast club have only managed 9 strikes from eight fixtures away from home.
Timber remains a reliable choice each gameweek and has increased offensive potential now he is right-back.
Hincapie has registered defensive contribution points in four consecutive starts, including two clean sheets.
Virgil van Dijk, the Reds, £5.9m – vs Wolves (H).
I'd pick half a dozen Liverpool players for this fixture if allowed.
Wolves failed to score for the 10th time in 17 games in a recent 2-0 defeat at Molineux to the Bees.
The Midlands side have scored just nine goals in total, including two on the road. This is one of the safest shutout bet available.
Omar Alderete, Sunderland, £4m – vs Leeds (H).
Despite Leeds United's improved offensive form – including the performances of their striker – the pick is a Sunderland clean sheet on home soil.
This would secure a third consecutive , with Alderete becoming the best value defensive pick. You can start him confidently in most games, thanks to his potential for 'defcon' points.
Mason Mount, United, £5.9m – vs Newcastle (H).
Mount will likely assume a bigger responsibility at Old Trafford in the next few games, with their Portuguese maestro suffering an injury.
Over the past three games, Erik ten Hag's team boast the greatest expected goals (xG) statistically by over three goals – 8.78 versus second-best Leeds United's 5.68.
They welcome a Newcastle side that has been poor in away matches – managing a single victory from seven attempts.
The former Chelsea man could well assume a large share of the injured star's creative responsibilities, particularly on set-pieces, and could operate as an attacking midfielder.
Florian Wirtz, the Reds, £8.1m – vs Wolverhampton Wanderers (H).
The German playmaker is due a major point return and a home match versus Wolves being the prime opportunity for that to happen.
He has registered attacking returns in three out of his last four fixtures – a pair of assists plus a defensive contribution performance.
Over that time his chance creation stands at 10 chances, the highest of any his teammates, while his expected goals stands at 0.88.
Morgan Rogers, Villa, £7.2m – vs Chelsea (A).
After recording 30 points over two matches, Rogers' current form is impossible to ignore.
He's Aston Villa's main goal threat, who can producing a goal from the smallest space inside the area.
An away trip at Chelsea could be viewed as a difficult proposition, but Villa have won at that ground on two occasions in recent years.
Hugo Ekitike (Captain), the Reds, £8.9m – vs Wolves (H).
Because of facing an abysmal Wolves side, a lack of rivalry for his place, and having scored five goals in three games, the French striker gets the captaincy this week.
Erling Haaland, City, £15.1m – vs Forest (A).
One cannot consider dropping the Norwegian goal machine, however because he has a more difficult fixture on the road this week, the choice is to pass over him for the armband.
Jarrod Bowen, West Ham United, £7.6m
