Deep dives
Brighton attackers offer potential in upcoming fixtures
Brighton's upcoming fixtures, including Fulham, Sheffield United, and Brentford, make their attacking options appealing. Matoma has consistently played 90 minutes and offers goal threat, while other options like Gio Pedro and Andone offer budget alternatives. However, the team's aggressive style may lead to rotation and limited minutes for some attackers.
Trippier's form makes him an attractive option
Trippier has been delivering consistent returns and is among the best picks in the game. However, his upcoming fixtures are challenging, and with other more promising options available, such as Salah, Saka, and Watkins, prioritizing these players over Trippier may be the better option.
Palmer offers budget midfield option with challenging fixtures
Palmer has performed well in recent games and offers an affordable midfield option. However, Chelsea's upcoming fixtures are difficult, raising concerns about his potential for returns. Considering other budget midfielders like Mautoma or Deulofeu who have more favorable fixtures could be a wiser choice.
Arsenal's favorable fixtures make them an enticing choice
Arsenal's upcoming fixtures, including Sheffield United and Burnley at home, make their attacking options appealing. Saka and Gabrielle offer potential as value picks, while Martinelli could be a good differential. However, fitting them into a squad may require compromises in other areas.
