The Scout TRIPLES UP on Arsenal in Gameweek 6 of Fantasy Premier League, with Bukayo Saka (£10.0m), Kai Havertz (£8.1m) and Gabriel (£6.1m) selected for their home match against Leicester City.
Along with Erling Haaland (£15.3m), Saka is the only player to produce attacking returns in each of the opening five Gameweeks. Gabriel’s two goals and three clean sheets have helped him to the top of the defender standings, while Havertz has 20 points from his two home outings.
The Gunners trio are picked in a 3-4-3 formation, with Manchester City’s Haaland handed the armband and Saka named vice-captain.
Mark Flekken (Brentford) £4.5m
Brentford’s No 1 offers the security of save points at home to West Ham United. Flekken has made at least five saves in each of his five appearances, earning two save points on three of those occasions.
Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool) £7.1m
Liverpool’s right-back can provide managers with multiple routes to returns at Wolverhampton Wanderers. Alexander-Arnold has blanked only once this season, combining an assist with four clean sheets and four bonus points.
Gabriel (Arsenal) £6.1m
Managers have made the Arsenal star their top priority in defence after his back-to-back goals at Tottenham Hotspur and Man City. Gabriel has earned over 638,000 new owners, at least 460,000 MORE than any other defender ahead of Saturday’s 11:00 BST deadline.
Ola Aina (Nott’m Forest) £4.5m
The Nottingham Forest full-back has collected five bonus points across the two matches in which he has kept a clean sheet this season. Aina could be in line for more success against a Fulham side who have had a mere two big chances – situations in which the player is expected to score – across their two away matches.
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) £10.0m
His role as Arsenal’s talisman – and potential for both goals and assists – is clearly highlighted by the underlying statistics. Saka’s 11 shots and 10 shots in the box are both joint-top with Havertz among team-mates, while his 12 key passes and five big chances created are both more than any other Gunners player.
Luis Diaz (Liverpool) £7.9m
Three double-figure hauls in his last four appearances have made Liverpool’s Colombian the top target in Gameweek 6. Diaz can immediately reward his 813,000+ new owners against Wolves, who have conceded a league-high 14 goals.
Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford) £7.2m
The Brentford star has scored in both his home matches this season, amassing 23 points. West Ham’s defensive numbers indicate Mbeumo could be set for more success this weekend – they are among the four sides who have conceded a league-high 20 big chances.
Antoine Semenyo (AFC Bournemouth) £5.6m
His totals of 24 shots and 14 shots in the box both rank among the TOP FOUR players in Fantasy this season and highlight Semenyo’s major potential for goals. AFC Bournemouth are at home to a Southampton side who, like West Ham, have allowed 20 big chances.
Erling Haaland (Man City) £15.3m
Haaland’s goal and nine points against Arsenal last time out will have effectively settled the captaincy debate for millions of managers. The Norwegian has had more shots, shots in the box, big chances and shots on target than any other player this season – you can expect millions of his 71.9 per cent ownership to hand him the armband for City’s trip to Newcastle United.
Kai Havertz (Arsenal) £8.1m
An ownership of 17 per cent makes the German a relative differential when compared with the 31 per cent of Saka. Havertz can exploit a Leicester side who have conceded 62 shots in the box, the second-most over the opening five Gameweeks of 2024/25.
Chris Wood (Nott’m Forest) £6.1m
The New Zealand international is the fourth top-scoring forward in Fantasy, scoring three goals to collect 29 points. Wood’s huge aerial threat at free-kicks and corners can be a major weapon against Fulham, who rank among the worst three sides for conceding headed shots and shots from set-pieces.
