Goalkeeper:
Jordan Pickford (EVE) (£4.8 m) | Opponent: WOL (A): While this might be a weird choice in goal, Everton have been among the top FPL teams when it comes to xGA stats in the last few Gameweeks. They will look to keep a clean sheet in this crucial game and get some FPL points for his owners.
Defenders:
Kieran Tierney (ARS) - £5.4 m | Opponent: CRY (H): Kieran Tierney is among the most transferred-in players ahead of FPL Gameweek 18 and with good reason. The Arsenal full-back is in line for a huge FPL haul this Gameweek.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka (MUN) - £5.3 m | Opponent: BUR (A): Manchester United are likely to keep a clean sheet against a goal-shy Burnley team. Wan-Bissaka could get further FPL returns on an attacking front.
John Stones (MCI)- £5.0 m | Opponent: BHA (H): John Stones has been solid at the back for Manchester City. He has also improved his goal-threat and could get some attacking FPL returns in addition to some clean sheet points.
Midfielders:
Kevin De Bruyne (MCI) - £11.6 m | Opponent: BHA (H): In-form Kevin De Bruyne is an FPL must-have over the next six-seven Gameweeks, and I'm integrating him into my team right from this Gameweek. His advanced position makes it likely for him to get a huge FPL haul against Brighton.
Anwar El Ghazi (AVL) - £5.8 m | Opponent: TOT (H): Anwar El Ghazi has scored the joint-most goals since December and also has the highest xG stat during this period. While Spurs should be solid defensively, Villa's attack has proved too good for many quality teams, and El Ghazi could get another good FPL haul.
There is, however, the risk of this game getting postponed, so if that happens, I might have to look elsewhere.
Bruno Fernandes (MUN) - £10.9 m | Opponent: BUR (A): The second-highest FPL point-scorer so far, Fernandes should thrive as United enter a promising and important run of fixtures. He'll once again be the main man for United and is in line for a huge FPL haul.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (ARS) - £11.3 m | Opponent: CRY (H): This might come as a surprising FPL pick, considering that it could've been used to fund moves for Raheem Sterling or Marcus Rashford. However, Aubameyang is the kind of player who tends to explode, especially against the smaller oppositions.
He has had pretty good underlying numbers over the last few FPL Gameweeks, and this could very well be the Gameweek where he regains his mojo.
Son Heung-min (TOT) - (£9.7 m) | Opponent: AVL(A): There isn't much to separate Son and Kane, but I've opted to go for the former due to his cheaper price and explosive FPL points potential. He should be in among the goals for Spurs against Villa. As with El Ghazi, there is a chance of this match getting postponed.
Forwards:
Richarlison (EVE)- £7.8 m | Opponent: WOL (A): Richarlison is a good FPL differential to consider for Gameweek 18. He's on penalties for the Toffees and could thrive in a potential goal-fest of a game given Wolves' recent defensive frailties.
Callum Wilson (NEW)- £6.5 m | Opponent: SHU (A): Newcastle's Callum Wilson is something of a must-have this Gameweek. Facing a Sheffield United side that is yet to keep a clean sheet this season, Wilson is in line for a huge FPL haul.
Bench:
GK: Robin Olsen (EVE) (£4.5 m) | Opponent: WOL(A)
1st Sub: DeAndre Yedlin (NEW) (DEF)- £4.3 m | Opponent: SHU (A):
2nd Sub: Rhian Brewster (SHU) (FWD) - £4.5 m | Opponent: NEW (H):
3rd Sub: Max Kilman (WOL) (DEF)- £4.1 m | Opponent: EVE (H)
