2 Sept. 2022

If you are the sort of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) manager who enjoys going against the grain – or takes satisfaction from finding hidden gems before the crowd – then lowly selected players (differentials) can often provide value and offer a source of points which won’t be shared by many other managers. As long as the player picks are justifiable, differentials can give you an edge over your mini-league rivals.

In this article we look ahead to Gameweek 6 and find players from each position who are currently selected by less than 10% of managers, but could reward their owners in the upcoming Gameweeks.

GK: David Raya

  • Cost: £4.5m
  • Selected by: 6.6%
