Antonio and Benrahma got their second price rise this week and budget defender Livramento rose as well. As the below image shows, the West Ham striker tops the Fix Comparison Matrix for forwards over the first two weeks. He leads the way for every metric, goals (three), assists (three), shots (11), shots on target (six), attempted assists (three) and penalty area actions (five). There were eight price-falls including Pukki who has a nice run of fixtures starting gameweek five. 

Lukaku (109%) and Dier (101%) are the players most likely to go up in price tonight but there could be others as transfer traffic (progress/hour) usually picks up on Friday evenings after press conferences. 

As is usually the case on Fridays, a lot of price falls are expected based on current transfer traffic (progress/hour) including some prominent players such as Tierney (-106%), Gundogan (-102%) and De Bruyne (-110%). 

Other players to keep an eye on today (position | name, price | progress | progress / hour):

Rising:

F | Kane, 12.3 | 7% | 0.30%
M | Son, 10.1 | 7% | 0.20%
D | Duffy, 4.1 | 71% | 0.30%

Falling:

M | Salah, 12.6 | -48% | -0.40%
M  | Perez 6.0 | -92% | -0.40%
M  | Townsend 5.5 | -56% | -0.30%
