Caveat - Picks are in below format
Salah has registered two Fantasy Premier League (FPL) involvements in the last two matches and over the last four gameweeks, no midfielder has taken more shots than his 12. His total of nine shots in the box (SiB) is bettered only by Mané and only Richarlison and the Senegal international (both six) have landed more shots on target (SoT) than his five. The league leaders have scored eight goals in the last four gameweeks, only Watford (nine), Man. Utd (10) and Man. City (12) have scored more. They are also top for ‘big chances’ (14) over this period. Although Man. Utd have conceded only three goals in their last four games, it is worth mentioning that they played Newcastle, Burnley, Arsenal and Norwich over this period. A visit to Anfield is likely to prove a far sterner test and our Fix Algorithm projects Salah to be the highest point scorer this week with projection of 6.5.

The top scoring asset in FPL with 150 points, De Bruyne has registered seven goals and 16 assists already this season. As the Stats Sandbox shows, over the last six gameweeks, only Salah (19) and Mahrez (21) have taken more shots amongst midfielders and he leads the way for SoT (eight). Only Norwood (five) has created more ‘big chances’ than the Belgian’s four. Man. City top the attacking metrics over the same period – no team has scored more goals (18), landed more SoT (44) or created more ‘big chances’ 19. Palace have conceded six goals in as many matches, keeping no clean sheets. Only eight teams have allowed opponents more SiB than their 45 and they are seventh-worst for ‘big chances’ conceded (11). Our Fix Algorithm projects a point score of 5.6 for De Bruyne.

Richarlison has registered two goals and an assist under Ancelotti playing as a striker, despite being classified as a midfielder in FPL. As the Fix Heatmap shows, he has averaged 6.5 points per game since the Italian's appointment and over the past four gameweeks the Brazilian is top for shots (12) and SoT (six) amongst midfielders. The Toffees post impressive underlying statistics as well. Despite scoring only five goals, they are top for shots (64) and second for shots in the box (SiB) (44) to Liverpool (45) over the last four matches. Their opponents West Ham have conceded five goals over the same stretch of games, keeping just one clean sheet. Only seven teams have conceded more goals and only Newcastle (14) and Villa (16) have conceded more ‘big chances’ than their 13. Our Fix Algorithm projects a point score of 4.1 for Richarlison.
