Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 34+ Picks
Quick Tips
Almost every team will play once every three or four days from now until the end of the season. Hence, player rotation is inevitable. So, it would be prudent to have players that might start on your bench.
Goalkeepers
It seems a really tricky week for goalkeepers. Ben Foster has a good shout of a clean sheet against Norwich City. The Canaries have failed to score in their last four matches.
The long-term picks of Nick Pope and Dean Henderson both face difficult ties this round. However, Burnley have beaten their opponents of this round, West Ham United, by keeping a clean sheet in each of their last two encounters. The Hammers look in decent form now, though.
Ederson is another one who might keep a clean sheet at home to Newcastle United.
Defenders
Just like the goalkeepers, defenders also have a tough round coming up.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka disappointed in last round but against Aston Villa, he might be more productive.
Matt Doherty could not make his usual forward runs due to the presence of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the last round. His FPL owners will be expecting a good return from the Irishman against Sheffield United.
Lucas Digne could be a decent option against Southampton. The saints have a great away record this season though.
Midfielders
Bruno Fernandes and Anthony Martial are scoring for fun and they are playing one of the worst teams in the league in Aston Villa. Manchester United are to continue their red-hot form at Villa Park.
Kevin De Bruyne was benched at Southampton, so it looks likely that the Belgian will get the start in this round. Manchester City are playing well but without Sergio Aguero, they seem to be missing a lot of chances. Phil Foden might get the nod in this game as well. It is a comfortable looking home fixture for Pep Guardiola‘s men but his rotation policy and the tendency to substitute players just before the 60-minute mark have surely incurred the wrath of every FPL manager.
Since clinching the title, Liverpool do not seem as sharp as before. Brighton & Hove Albion still need points to absolutely confirm their safety. It won’t be a straightforward match for Liverpool. However, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane could still do some damage at the Amex Stadium.
Bournemouth are in deep trouble and they have another tough encounter this round against Tottenham Hotspur. Heung-Min Son could have a good game here.
Michail Antonio is playing as a striker these days. One could look at him as a differential pick. He has some nice fixtures coming up as well. Jarrod Bowen is also looking good.
Strikers
Mason Greenwood is in absolutely sublime form. In fact, the United youngster has scored three goals in the last two matches. His starting spot seems secure as well. Available at a basement price, one should consider him very very strongly indeed. Marcus Rashford, on the other hand, has not scored that many FPL points since the restart. However, he could still come up with the goods.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored twice in Arsenal‘s last home game. Leicester City are tough opponents but Auba will be ready to pounce on any mistakes made by the defenders.
Harry Kane should be a strong consideration if one has the units at leaky Bournemouth. Kane looked good in the last match as well.
