Many key decisions are needed to be made this week which could make or break the seasons of FPL managers. Read on to find out about what to expect in this crucial gameweek. Don&#8217;t forget there is a Friday deadline this week.<\/p>\n<h2>Fantasy Premier League Gameweek Ten Picks<\/h2>\n<h3>Quick Tips<\/h3>\n<p>The classic FPL debate about form versus fixtures is raging once again this week. <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/92e7e919\/Son-Heung-min\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Son Heung-min<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/21a66f6a\/Harry-Kane?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Harry Kane<\/a> are in form but face tough fixtures, whereas <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/manchester-city\/\" target=\"_self\">Manchester City<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/leicester-city\/\" target=\"_self\">Leicester City<\/a> assets have the easy-looking fixtures. <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/e342ad68\/Mohamed-Salah?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mohamed Salah<\/a> is fit again as well. One cannot afford to have every premium FPL asset so decisions have to be made this week on who to back. Once again the best thing to do would be to wait till Friday before making those crucial decisions as there are midweek matches. Besides, any player could catch COVID-19 anytime.<\/p>\n<h3>Goalkeepers<\/h3>\n<p>In terms of fixtures, Ederson, Alisson, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/9e5708be\/Sam-Johnstone?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sam Johnstone<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/ab13a5aa\/Vicente-Guaita?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vicente Guaita<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/466fb2c5\/Aaron-Ramsdale?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Aaron Ramsdale<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/53af52f3\/Kasper-Schmeichel?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kasper Schmeichel<\/a> look to have good opportunities of keeping a clean sheet. Interestingly, Guaita has kept only one clean sheet so far this season and that too came on gameweek one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=7956236f,52061089&amp;search=Emiliano+Mart%C3%ADnez&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Emiliano Mart\u00ednez<\/a> has kept a clean sheet in each of his three matches away from home so far. Will he be able to continue the trend this week at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/west-ham\/\" target=\"_self\">West Ham United<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/33887998\/Edouard-Mendy?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Edouard Mendy<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/chelsea\/\" target=\"_self\">Chelsea<\/a> will face their toughest test in a while as they host high-flying \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/tottenham\/\" target=\"_self\">Tottenham Hotspur<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Defenders<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/bd6351cd\/Joao-Cancelo?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jo\u00e3o Cancelo<\/a> has been very impressive for Manchester City this season. Interestingly, he does not play like a regular full-back. Despite that, the Portuguese has only managed one assist so far this season. It could change this week against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/burnley\/\" target=\"_self\">Burnley<\/a> against whom Manchester City have scored 23 goals in the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.11v11.com\/teams\/manchester-city\/tab\/opposingTeams\/opposition\/Burnley\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> last six matches<\/a> in all competitions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/2e4f5f03\/Andrew-Robertson?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Andrew Robertson<\/a> rewarded his FPL owners with 12 points last week. He could do well this week also against a Brighton &amp; Hove Albion side missing <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/f4e433d4\/Tariq-Lamptey?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tariq Lamptey<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/1b84dbe1\/Lucas-Digne?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lucas Digne<\/a> provided two assists last week for <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/everton\/\" target=\"_self\">Everton<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/leeds-united\/\" target=\"_self\">Leeds United <\/a>are a tricky side to play against but they do give away chances so the French full-back could profit offensively.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/197640fd\/Timothy-Castagne?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Timothy Castagne<\/a> could be a good option if fit as well. However, his match sharpness has not been proven yet.<\/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>, <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>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/892d5bb1\/Riyad-Mahrez?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Riyad Mahrez<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/9e1035f8\/Ferran-Torres?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ferran Torres<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/ed1e53f3\/Phil-Foden?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Phil Foden<\/a> all could do well this week. Picking the right one will be tough. Also, Manchester City&#8217;s lacklustre showings in front of goal will worry FPL managers. However, Guardiola&#8217;s side could click into gear any time and hit some team hard. Could that be the clarets this week? De Bruyne seems to be the best bet as he has been rested for the Champions League match.<\/p>\n<p>The King of FPL, Mohamed Salah is back. The Egyptian is likely to start and he could wreak havoc against Brighton. His return will help <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/c691bfe2\/Sadio-Mane?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sadio Man\u00e9, <\/a>also.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/ee38d9c5\/James-Maddison?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">James Maddison<\/a> could be a differential this week. He seems to be back to full match sharpness now and Fulham are the ideal opponents for him to score some points. <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/3ea50f67\/Harvey-Barnes?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Harvey Barnes<\/a> is also a good option.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=507c7bdf,9227838e&amp;search=Bruno+Fernandes&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bruno Fernandes<\/a> has a great record away from home. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/southampton\/\" target=\"_self\">Southampton<\/a> are doing well this season but <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/manchester-united\/\" target=\"_self\">Manchester United<\/a> have the tools to get the points from this match. The Portuguese will fancy scoring some FPL points against the high line of Southampton.<\/p>\n<h3>Strikers<\/h3>\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> will relish playing against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/clubs\/fulham\/\" target=\"_self\">Fulham<\/a> who seem to gift goals away on most weeks. Vardy is someone who thrives on profiting from any mistake a defender makes so he could be lethal against Fulham.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/59e6e5bf\/Dominic-Calvert-Lewin?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dominic Calvert-Lewin\u00a0<\/a>is in the form of his life. Leeds United have conceded a lot of goals this season so Everton will fancy scoring some goals in this match. Richarlison is also worth consideration. On the other hand, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/93feac6e\/Patrick-Bamford?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Patrick Bamford<\/a> should do well too.<\/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 Ag\u00fcero<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/b66315ae\/Gabriel-Jesus?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gabriel Jesus<\/a> are both available which makes it tough to predict who will start between them. With so many great striker options available this season, it is probably best to avoid them.<\/p>\n<h3>Fantasy Premier League Gameweek Ten Captaincy Picks<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/e342ad68\/Mohamed-Salah?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mohamed Salah<\/a>, <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>, <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>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/59e6e5bf\/Dominic-Calvert-Lewin?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dominic Calvert-Lewin\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Fantasy Premier League Top Picks<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Jamie Vardy \u00a0(\u00a310.2)<\/li>\n<li>Mohamed Salah \u00a0(\u00a312.2)<\/li>\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(\u00a311.6)<\/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> \u00a0(\u00a311.5)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=507c7bdf,9227838e&amp;search=Bruno+Fernandes&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bruno Fernandes<\/a> (\u00a310.8)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/59e6e5bf\/Dominic-Calvert-Lewin?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dominic Calvert-Lewin\u00a0<\/a>(\u00a37.9)<\/li>\n<li>Richarlison (\u00a37.8)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/bd6351cd\/Joao-Cancelo?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jo\u00e3o Cancelo<\/a> (\u00a35.5)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/ee38d9c5\/James-Maddison?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">James Maddison<\/a> \u00a0(\u00a37.0)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/c691bfe2\/Sadio-Mane?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sadio Man\u00e9<\/a> \u00a0(\u00a312.1)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"g8iq5WVMQNl14Q02e31gCw\" 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\/1229530401\" 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:'g8iq5WVMQNl14Q02e31gCw',sig:'NwNU37hysZxU6qus2urIHUzMJBzQ18SyRJFRd3rNhNs=',w:'594px',h:'351px',items:'1229530401',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 ten promises to be one of the most interesting gameweeks of the season.
