Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 8 – Best Players, Fixtures and More

2118

Buckle up for another thrilling weekend of FPL action in Gameweek 8! With players in top form and some teams finding their stride, it's a pivotal moment to fine-tune your lineup, keep an eye on injuries, and strategize for maximum points.

Let’s have a look at some assets that might be essential for the first half of the season.

Goalkeeper

Surprisingly or not, Robert Sanchez (Chelsea) has kept the most clean sheet up to now and faces a low-scoring Burnley opposition. All eyes are on Spurs, as Guiglelmo Vicario (Tottenham) look as a stand out option this week. Neto (Bournemouth) and Bern Leno (Fulham) are spicy differentials with a potential to make a lot of saves.

Defenders

Kieran Trippier (Newcastle) continues his double-digit form and looks inevitable to have. Matty Cash (Aston Villa) pretty much plays as a right winger and has a high potential for attacking returns. Levi Cowill (Chelsea) must fill in the left-back spot and we saw that he is really sharp going forward. Destiny Udogie (Tottenham) and Pedro Porro (Tottenham) are a must this gameweek against Luton as their team is flying high.

Midfielders

James Maddison (Tottenham) and Heung Min Son (Tottenham) will be the most transferred in players and are captaincy candidates. Moussa Diaby (Aston Villa) is yellow flaged and must be assesed before the start of the round but still remains the best midfielder asset to own from Villa.

Pedro Neto (Wolverhampton) continues to impress as his performance against Manchester City was stunning. Jarrod Bowen (West Ham) have scored back to back goals and can be worthy long term.

Forwards

All the buzz around Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa) makes him a priority transfer this week and with that hat-trick against Brighton, proves to be one of the leaders in Emery’s team. Erling Haaland (Manchester City) has blanked but do not be confused as he is a real goal machine. Dominik Solanke (Bournemouth) could be one of the differential forwards this gameweek.

With these players in mind, you can strategically craft your FPL squad for the upcoming round. Consider their recent form, roles within their teams and fixture conditions to optimize your selections. The DEADLINE is Saturday at 11:00 UK Time, so be ready!
