Top Picks for this week

5. Matheus Cunha – Wolves | 59 points | £6.8m

Matheus Cunha can be a good addition to your Fantasy Premier League team. The Brazilian striker has hit form with 12 points in previous gameweek. He is available for £6.8m in the game and is an excellent budget option, with a total points tally of 59. With Jorgen Strand Larsen, he has built up quite the partnership at Wolves. His dribbling and the spark he provides is really entertaining to watch as well. This weekend, a recovering Wolves side take on Fulham. Cunha has 5 goals and 2 assists so far this season and will look to add to the tally.

4. Rasmus Hojlund – Manchester United | 21 points | £6.9m

Rasmus Hojlund hasn’t had the greatest stint at Manchester United so far. The talent is pretty obvious for the young Danish striker and he has shown glimpses of it more than often. His link up play and hold up play are all really good. But somehow, a consistent goalscoring run of form hasn’t stuck yet. That being said, his current form suggests a return to form and that a goalscoring spell could be around the corner. New manager Ruben Amorim is known for getting the best out of attackers and Hojlund could be another beneficiary. Ipswich Town have found life in the Premier League difficult and they are United’s opponents this weekend.

3. Yoane Wissa – Brentford | 54 points | £6.1m

Yoane Wissa is a very dependable and underrated Premier League striker. Last weekend, he managed 13 points against Bournemouth. He has made the difficult job of replacing Ivan Toney look rather easy for Brentford. Wissa is in great form and has scored 6 goals and assisted 2 times this season. Brentford have had an interesting high-scoring start to the season, but only at home and their away form has been poor. When the Bees take on Everton later this week, Wissa will be ready to take full advantage of their poor defensive record. Wissa has 54 points already this season despite being out injured for a period.

2. Evanilson – Bournemouth | 45 points | £5.9m

Evanilson arrived from Porto to the Premier League earlier this summer. He took some time to get going but he’s doing really well now. His last three outings have led to 8 points, 7 points and 8 points in Fantasy Premier League. He has 4 goals and 1 assist in the Premier League this season and 3 of those goals have come in the last 3 games. The Brazilian striker’s physicality is a good match for the Premier League. Bournemouth are in really great form and their game this weekend is against a defensively suspect Brighton side. Evanilson will expect to get on the scoresheet in this one.

1. Nicolas Jackson- Chelsea | 60 points | £7.9m

Nicolas Jackson is one of the most complete strikers in the Premier League right now. His last two games weren’t the greatest ones against Liverpool and Manchester United. However, the Senegalese is is a great asset to have in your Fantasy team. He already has 6 goals as well as 3 assists in the Premier League this season. With Cole Palmer, he has formed a deadly combination. Chelsea are a massively improved side this season and their game this weekend is against Leicester City. The Foxes have already conceded 21 times this season and the Blues will be looking to make the most of it. Jackson’s movement and quality could trouble them a lot.

This weekend, in Gameweek 12, the standout fixture is a game between Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur as the Cityzens look to recover from their 4 match losing streak. Other notable fixtures include Manchester United’s game against Ipswich Town which will be the first game for new manager Ruben Amorim. The gameweek deadline is on the 23rd of November.
