Five Fantasy Premier League Price Changes Hit Managers Today

Fantasy Premier League managers woke up to five price changes today, with one player rising in value while four others saw their prices drop ahead of the crucial run-in to the season.

Price Rises ⬆️

Mukiele Climbs to £4.6m After Strong Performances

Sunderland defender Mukiele has risen to £4.6m following impressive recent displays for the Black Cats. The defender has shown excellent form in his last two starts, earning 14 points against Spurs in a 1-0 home victory before playing the full 90 minutes in a thrilling 4-3 defeat to Aston Villa, despite picking up a yellow card.

Mukiele's upcoming fixtures present a mixed bag for Fantasy managers. Sunderland face Nottingham Forest at home in Gameweek 34, followed by away trips to Wolves and Manchester United. The defender then has home fixtures against Everton and Chelsea to close out the season. His 9.6% ownership suggests growing manager interest in this budget defensive option.

Price Falls ⬇️

João Pedro Drops to £7.6m Despite Strong Season Total

Chelsea forward João Pedro has fallen to £7.6m after a concerning recent run of form. The Brazilian has managed just two points from his last three appearances, starting only once in that period. His most recent outings saw him benched for the Manchester United defeat and the Brighton loss, raising questions about his place in the starting eleven.

The 43.1% ownership makes this price drop particularly significant for Fantasy managers. Pedro faces a blank gameweek in Gameweek 34, which could prompt further sales. His subsequent fixtures include Nottingham Forest at home, followed by challenging away trips to Liverpool and Tottenham, before hosting Sunderland in the final gameweek.

Timber's Injury Concerns Drive Price Down to £6.1m

Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber has dropped to £6.1m amid ongoing fitness concerns. The Dutch international is currently dealing with an ankle injury that gives him only a 75% chance of featuring in upcoming matches. His recent appearances have been limited, failing to start in Arsenal's last two fixtures against Bournemouth and Manchester City.

Timber's 20.5% ownership reflects his popularity when fit, but his injury status is clearly affecting manager confidence. Arsenal's upcoming fixtures look favourable with home games against Newcastle and Fulham, followed by an away trip to West Ham, a home clash with Burnley, and a final-day visit to Crystal Palace.

Low Ownership Movements

Budget Defenders See Mixed Fortunes

West Ham's Mavropanos has quietly risen to £4.5m with just 2.9% ownership, potentially offering value for managers seeking budget defensive options.

Meanwhile, Liverpool midfielder Mac Allister has fallen to £6.2m despite his quality, with only 2.0% of managers currently backing the Argentine international.
