This article tries to help FPL managers with some helpful advice.<\/p>\n<h2>Fantasy Premier League Gameweek Eleven Picks<\/h2>\n<h3>Goalkeepers<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/newcastle-united\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Newcastle United<\/a> have struggled to score goals this season with just six goals in ten matches. Hence, the temptation is there to pick the goalkeeper facing them. <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=24ed6a07,6a6c3b3f&amp;search=Roberto+Jim\u00e9nez&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Roberto Jimenez<\/a>\u00a0is in that position this week.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/4535e4bb\/Mathew-Ryan?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mathew Ryan<\/a> has a decent shot at a clean sheet this week as well against Norwich City. The Canaries have really gone off the boil with just one point from the last five matches.<\/p>\n<h3>Defenders<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/5271c8f1\/Benjamin-Mendy?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Benjamin Mendy<\/a> is fit now and after getting a rest in the League Cup match on Tuesday night, he should be safe to start. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/southampton\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Southampton<\/a> conceded nine against Leicester last week and three against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/manchester-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manchester City<\/a> in midweek. So, Mendy should get some joy on the attacking front that is for sure.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/cd1acf9d\/Trent-Alexander-Arnold?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Trent Alexander-Arnold<\/a> has not returned the points his overall play deserves. Will he finally get some attacking points this week?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/75a72a99\/Ricardo-Pereira?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ricardo Pereira<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/d2424d1b\/Ben-Chilwell?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ben Chilwell<\/a> have both been pretty impressive this season. They have a tricky away fixture this week at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/crystal-palace\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Crystal Palace<\/a>. However, considering the form they are in at this moment, one would not bet against them returning solid points this week as well.<\/p>\n<p>Other defenders that could do well this week are-<a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/7edfbb8a\/Fikayo-Tomori?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fikayo Tomori<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/0df2b165\/John-Lundstram?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">John Lundstram<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/a712ca2b\/Issa-Diop?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Issa Diop<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/282f75f3\/Lewis-Dunk?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lewis Dunk<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Midfielders<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/e46012d4\/Kevin-De-Bruyne?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kevin De Bruyne<\/a> was rested for the midweek League Cup match so he should start this one. He could rack up a monster score this week.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/b400bde0\/Raheem-Sterling?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Raheem Sterling<\/a> did not feature in the midweek game as well. That has made him the best captain pick this week in most FPL manager&#8217;s eyes. Facing the leakiest defence in the league, Sterling seems like a no-brainer this week. <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/e2716bd0\/David-Silva?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">David Silva<\/a> also should start this week.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/c691bfe2\/Sadio-Mane\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sadio Man\u00e9<\/a> has been in great form this season and could do well at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/aston-villa-club-news-analysis-fixtures\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Aston Villa<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/chelsea\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chelsea<\/a> have a good-looking away fixture at Watford this week. <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/9674002f\/Mason-Mount?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mason Mount<\/a>, Willian and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/1bf33a9a\/Christian-Pulisic?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Christian Pulisic<\/a> are all strong options this week.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/8aec0537\/Pascal-Gross?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pascal Gross<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/849c826a\/Andriy-Yarmolenko?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Andriy Yarmolenko<\/a> have decent home fixtures and should be considered.<\/p>\n<h3>Strikers<\/h3>\n<p>After a great start to the season, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/f586779e\/Tammy-Abraham?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tammy Abraham<\/a> has only scored one goal in the last five Premier League matches. Will he rediscover his early-season form this week? <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/chelsea\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chelsea<\/a> have a really awesome away record so <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/watford\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Watford<\/a> away should not be a big issue for them.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/4bcf39f6\/Neal-Maupay?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Neal Maupay<\/a> was tipped to do well on last week&#8217;s preview and he scored nine points last week. He faces the porous Norwich defence this week.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/4d034881\/Sergio-Aguero?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sergio Aguero<\/a> could run riot if he gets to start this week. The question remains though, will Guardiola bench him again?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/ba115a40\/Sebastien-Haller?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">S\u00e9bastien Haller<\/a> has a decent home fixture against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/newcastle-united\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Newcastle United<\/a>. However, he has only scored once in the last six matches.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/45963054\/Jamie-Vardy?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jamie Vardy<\/a> scored a hattrick last week and is the highest-scoring striker on FPL right now. Crystal Palace should pose a tough challenge but one would expect Vardy to cause them problems.<\/p>\n<h3>Fantasy Premier League Captaincy Picks<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/e46012d4\/Kevin-De-Bruyne?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kevin De Bruyne<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/b400bde0\/Raheem-Sterling?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Raheem Sterling<\/a>, Tammy Abraham<\/p>\n<h3>Fantasy Premier League Top Picks<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/e46012d4\/Kevin-De-Bruyne?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kevin De Bruyne<\/a>\u00a0(\u00a310.2)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/b400bde0\/Raheem-Sterling?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Raheem Sterling<\/a> (\u00a312.1)<\/li>\n<li>Tammy Abraham (\u00a37.8)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/c691bfe2\/Sadio-Mane\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sadio Man\u00e9<\/a> (\u00a311.9)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/4bcf39f6\/Neal-Maupay?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Neal Maupay<\/a> (\u00a36.0)<\/li>\n<li>Benjamin Mendy (\u00a35.9)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/4d034881\/Sergio-Aguero?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sergio Aguero<\/a> (\u00a312.1)<\/li>\n<li>S\u00e9bastien Haller (\u00a37.4)<\/li>\n<li>Roberto Jimenez Gago (\u00a34.4)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/4535e4bb\/Mathew-Ryan?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mathew Ryan<\/a> (\u00a34.7)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"WMPwqJ02QplcC0Wj0uti_w\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1183986493\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'WMPwqJ02QplcC0Wj0uti_w',sig:'lLpOeaU9PszrT0tekbeC93hidqPL5Fsjl2b3ith5jeE=',w:'594px',h:'452px',items:'1183986493',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fantasy Premier League Gameweek Eleven has some really interesting fixtures.
