Premier League Fantasy Football tips and advice.

 

FPL GW13 Goalkeepers and Defenders Tips

We kick things off with Liverpool’s Andrew Robertson (7.0m). The Reds’ left back has overtaken Alexander-Arnold in the defender rankings with a third attacking return in the last four. Robertson now has one goal and four assists heading into a run of good fixtures. Goal-shy Crystal Palace host Liverpool in Gameweek 13 and the but it looks like the left-back has been ruled out of the game with illness. This is yet to be confirmed. Our next choice is the out of position, John Lundstram (4.9m). The Sheffield United defender (according to FPL at least) is fast approaching cult hero status with three goals, one assist and five clean sheets so far. He faces a Manchester United side who have failed to score in two of their last three away games in the league. The Blades have a good record at home this season and have already beaten Arsenal, but will Lundstram get more FPL points this weekend? We’re singling out Kyle Walker (5.9m) for our defender to avoid this week but in truth, this applies to the entire Manchester City backline. City face a rampant Chelsea side and have only kept two clean sheets in their last six. The defence has been rotated heavily in recent weeks with Walker only making two starts from the last five. Tammy Abraham has been on fire and could be a FPL Gameweek 13 captains choice given the tough fixtures for some of the other in-form Fantasy Football players.  

FPL GW13 Midfielders Tips

Leicester have put together four straight wins in which they scored 15 and conceding just once. That brings James Maddison (7.5m) and Youri Tielemans (6.7m) into focus for this week. The former has three goals and an assist in his last five whilst the latter has two goals and two assists in his last four. The pair face off against Brighton this weekend who do have a decent record at home though. With Chelsea visiting and Manchester City not firing on all cylinders it may be time to avoid their assets in favour of more in form options. For Bernardo Silva (7.9m) owners it may be the perfect week to jump shit with the Portuguese international suspended for City’s Gameweek 13 fixture in search of value elsewhere, possibly in the likes of Anthony Martial who has hit form of late.  

FPL GW13 Forwards Tips

Chelsea Tammy Abraham

Tammy Abraham (8.0m) has scored nine goals from eleven starts in the Premier League this season. Chelsea have scored 27 goals, just two fewer than Manchester City and one behind Liverpool. Up next for Abraham is a City side who just conceded three goals to Liverpool. Seven goals and two assists from six away games suggest Abraham could be in the points again. The points have dried up for Roberto Firmino (9.4m) in recent weeks as Sadio Mane and Mo Salah have continued to outscore him. The Brazilian hasn’t scored since gameweek 6 and has blanked in each of his last four. Crystal Palace have conceded twice in each of their last four but there are better Liverpool options available for this fixture and it could be that Jurgen Klopp makes some changes to his side ahead of a hectic December schedule.
