Action returns in the Premier League as fans are set to be enthralled in the seventh gameweek of the English Premier league. Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool all face away tests and Manchester United will welcome Stoke City.
Champions, Leicester City will host Southampton whereas the biggest game of the week comes from White Hart Lane as Spurs welcome Man City, as a top of the table clash awaits the supporters. Fantasy managers will have their work out in gameweek 7 so we decided to hand out some FPL tips for the upcoming matches:
Goalkeepers:
Eldin Jakupovic at £4.2 million was a cheap choice until now but David Marshall has taken his place at Hull City and the managers will need to let go of their smart choice. Jordan Pickford at £4.0 million might be his replacement but should not be risked in the starting lineup as Sunderland have conceded in all of their games until now.
Petr Cech is an obvious choice as the Gunners are picking up results on a consistent basis and the next four games offer many points for the experienced custodian. Heurelho Gomes and Ben Foster are another choices who are expected to keep a clean sheet as Watford face Bournemouth while West Brom have conceded just two goals on the road.
Defenders:
Though Kyle Walker has picked up a lot of points until now, he must not be risked against a formidable City attack. Nathaniel Clyne at £5.5 million has created the most chances for a defender and should be included along with Hector Bellerin as both the players have an easy run of fixtures.
Chelsea have conceded in their last three games and their defenders should be avoided for now as they face a tricky away test. Daley Blind was impressive against Leicester and could be included as he will be given the corner duties against a weak Stoke side who have conceded two goals on an average away from home.
Midfielders:
Ross Barkley has been disappointing after the first two gameweeks and should be left out if any manager has him on their team. Heung-Min Son at £7.5 million has been in scintillating form for Spurs as he scored four times in his last three games. He also scored the winner in their Champions League game in midweek.
Theo Walcott is another choice who is enjoying a good run of form and with Olivier Giroud missing this week's game against Burnley, Walcott is s guaranteed starter and might be helpful in getting points. 335,646 managers have taken out Eden Hazard as many are preferring the £7.2 million priced Adam Lallana who has enjoyed a fine start to the campaign with three goals and four assists.
Forwards:
Along with the obvious choices in Sergio Aguero, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Romelu Lukaku, there are many other options that can come at a lower price. Jermaine Defoe at £7.2 million is in great touch after scoring a brace against Crystal Palace. His next three games are against Stoke, West Brom and West Ham, where Defoe can certainly bag some goals.
Troy Deeney against the questionable Chelsea defense and Marcus Rashford are other viable options at lesser price. Solomon Rondon too can be a smart option at just £5.5 million.
Captain:
Sergio Aguero and Alexis Sanchez can be good choices for the captaincy duties this gameweek. But with Stoke doing miserably this season, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is a more obvious choice as the Swede can inflict some serious damage on the Potters. Against a struggling Swansea side, Sadio Mane or Philippe Coutinho can also be smart options.
