Fantasy Premier League

Ivan Toney vs Bournemouth (A). Ivan Toney ranks third among FPL forwards for points scored this season, trailing only the premium priced Erling Haaland and ...

The Norwegian has scored hat-tricks in each of his last two league appearances at the Etihad. The task for Erik ten Hag and his team will be stopping Erling Haaland however, a feat no team in the Premier League has achieved this season. Liverpool take on a Brighton team under the management of Roberto De Zerbi for the first time this weekend, an opponent that Salah has regularly returned against in recent seasons. Even given the big-name options elsewhere, he’s becoming difficult to ignore as a captaincy option. The 28-year-old maintained his excellent form over the international break, with four goals in two games for Serbia, including a hat-trick against Sweden. An international debut failed to materialise however and Toney will return to Brentford well-rested for this weekend’s fixtures.

Haaland? Salah? Son? Some of the world's top Fantasy managers reveal who is getting their armband.

The [north London derby](https://www.premierleague.com/match/74991) seems to be a high-scoring fixture and Son loves to get involved. We saw in Gameweek 8 that going against Haaland for Harry Kane (£11.4m) as captain worked out for those who were brave. He has returned in eight of his previous 10 league meetings with [opponents Brighton & Hove Albion](https://www.premierleague.com/match/74997) and averages 7.8 points per appearance against them. If I ever needed extra incentive to captain Haaland, now I have it! Manchester United," Haaland said during pre-season when asked about which match he was looking forward to the most this season. The passion of the derby will intensify his desire to continue his perfect returns record this season.

Thanks to the inconsistency of Everton’s defense and play as a whole, their goalkeepers are generating the best value at the position in the league right now. The wingback is known for his aggressive style of play on the right flank and for his majority of set-pieces role for Liverpool. The midfielder is a true x-factor for the club and he continues to co-run the entire pace of play and offense alongside teammate Pascal Gross. Everton is starting to show a jump in form, but Ward-Prowse still has a chance to reach his ceiling in this meeting. Nevertheless, Liverpool has the highest odds to win, making Alisson the ‘safest’ keeper on the slate and he is also averaging over 2 saves per match right now. The striker is also playing in a formation that is friendly to his play style – lots of crossing to him –. Depending on the possible addition of teammate Ben Chilwell on the left flank, the majority of the play is expected to go through James on the right flank. The salary is not quite ideal, but he is at least playing in a somewhat positive matchup. If Bournemouth is to generate any sort of attack, Tavernier will be in the center of it. Due to the lack of consistency of set-pieces for the Blues, we will take a look at the scorching hot Sterling. Despite the turn in form for Bournemouth and playing at home, Brentford will still have the upper hand and it is a matter of them playing consistent football for 90 minutes. Tavernier is the midfield guru for the Cherries, running all set-pieces and controlling the pace of play.

We have chosen our best Fantasy Premier League (FPL) players for Gameweek 9 ahead of Saturday's deadline. We line up in a 4-3-3 formation this week and, ...

[VOTE FOR SCOUT AT THE FOOTBALL CONTENT AWARDS!](https://footballcontentawards.com/voting) Ideally, we’d have Joao Cancelo (£7.2m) in this slot, but due to budgetary constraints, have had to opt for teammate Ruben Dias (£6.0m). Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.4m) may find himself on the periphery for England, but he remains a key player for Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool and returns to the Scout Picks XI for the visit of Brighton and Hove Albion. Not only is his expected goal involvement (xGI) the highest of any defender in 2022/23, but he also sits joint-top alongside Kieran Trippier (£5.4m) for chances created. While David Raya (£4.5m) has only one clean sheet to his name in 2022/23, his total of 30 saves can’t be beaten by any other goalkeeper. That poor goalscoring record makes this the perfect fixture for Raya to record his second clean sheet of the season.

Tipster Paul takes a look at the best players to consider from each position in FPL after the International Break.

They haven't scored more than one goal in any of the games this season and also failed to score in three out of seven games. West Ham is welcoming one of the worst attacking teams in the league. Cancelo doesn't have the numbers from last season and his position seems to have changed a bit, but he is nailed for the best defense in the league, and even if not like last year, he still gets attacking returns. James seems to be nailed at RWB, and along with Potter joining Chelsea, he might play even higher up the pitch. With him being let out of England squad for the last few games, I can see him trying to get back on track in the last games before WC. He has underperformed until now, even though he looked good on the pitch, and did not return at all since the start of the season. Son seems to be again the previous year's "rank killer." Son seems to be back on track after a rough start of the season with a hat trick in the last game and a couple of goals for Korea. You can back him with the form he is in and with Haaland up front to finish his passes. Maddison is against the weakest team in PL for xGC, is on a great run of form, and is Leicester's talisman lately. Wilson is one of the best forwards in the league when he is not injured. Even though Arsenal is a tough fixture on paper, Kane has one of the best records in the league against them, with 13 goals in 15 games.
