1082

As the Premier League enters the crucial midweek Gameweek 31, Manchester City and Arsenal look to claw their way back to winning ways as they trail Liverpool in what's shaping up to be a nail-biting title race.

Here's a comprehensive guide on the players to watch out for in this pivotal round of matches.

Goalkeepers

David Raya (Arsenal) and Caoimhin Kelleher (Liverpool) stand out as the most popular choices due to their favorable fixtures, offering a strong case for clean sheets and save points. However, José Sá (Wolverhampton) and Martin Dubravka (Newcastle) also emerge as worthy considerations for their potential to accumulate save points, though managers should tread carefully with Newcastle's defensive concerns.

Defenders

The defensive lineup could see a significant boost from the Gunners with the trio of Ben White (Arsenal), Gabriel (Arsenal), and William Saliba (Arsenal) offering a solid base for clean sheets and defensive returns. Liverpool's Virgil Van Dijk (Liverpool) and Connor Bradley (Liverpool) shine as attractive options for their dual potential in attack and defense. For managers looking for budget differentials, Rayan Aït-Nouri (Wolverhampton) and Antonee Robinson (Fulham) present themselves as savvy picks this gameweek.

Midfielders

Midfielders to keep an eye on include Heung Min-Son (Tottenham), who continues to prove his worth against a shaky West Ham defense. Despite a somewhat disappointing performance with only one goal in the last match, Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) remains an essential pick. Cole Palmer (Chelsea) might emerge as the standout asset, while Luis Díaz (Liverpool) also demands attention for his flair and contribution to Klopp's attacking setup. Arsenal's Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) and Kai Havertz (Arsenal), despite recent quiet games, possess the quality to bounce back against Luton.

Forwards

In the forward line, Aleksander Isak (Newcastle) captures the spotlight after a stunning brace, positing him as a key asset for upcoming fixtures. Darwin Núñez (Liverpool) looks poised to exploit the league's weakest defense after missing key opportunities previously. Rodrigo Muniz (Fulham) offers a budget-friendly forward option, while Dominic Solanke (Bournemouth)'s consistency makes him a vital consideration. Meanwhile, Erling Haaland (Manchester City) faces pressure to live up to expectations and could be a decisive factor in fantasy teams.

With the season's critical phase underway, Gameweek 31 offers FPL managers a chance to make impactful decisions that could define their league standings.
