Best Midfielder: Antoine Semenyo vs Wolves (H) - 6.4 predicted points
Second-placed Manchester City have the fixture of the weekend against bottom-of-the-league Wolves at the Etihad, making their assets high on the agenda. Antoine Semenyo is a key pick, having scored two goals in all competitions in a Manchester City shirt.
He’s fully rested for this game, since he isn't eligible to play in the Champions League for Manchester City until the knockout stages. He has started every game for Pep Guardiola since his arrival, which also bodes well for his minutes in this enticing fixture.
Semenyo has amassed 15 goal involvements in total for this campaign: ten goals and five assists. He ranks third among all players for goal involvements, behind Erling Haaland (24) and Igor Thiago (17).
Midfield Gem: Martin Odegaard vs Manchester United (H) - 4.9 predicted points
Arsenal look set to be the favourites when they take on Michael Carrick’s Manchester United side at the Emirates on Sunday, with 2.4% owned Martin Odegaard a key acquisition, priced at just £7.8 million.
He has produced one goal and two assists in the last five Gameweeks, averaging more than five points per game in this time. Manchester United have failed to keep a clean sheet on the road in this campaign.
Best Forward: Erling Haaland vs Wolves (H) - 10.7 predicted points
Erling Haaland remains the best captain option once again, according to AI, for the visit of Wolves, gaining a season-high prediction of 10.7 points.
Wolves are one of his favourite Premier League opponents, with 10 goals in six appearances. This includes a brace in the reverse of this fixture back in Gameweek 1, which ended 4-0 in Manchester City’s favour.
He remains top for shots (17) over the last four Gameweeks, but has shown fatigue in his performances. He has found the back of the net just once in the last four Gameweeks, and that was from the penalty spot.
With Omar Marmoush returning from injury, his minutes could be more limited, although a win will be important with just three points gained from their last four.
Forward Gem: Jarrod Bowen vs Sunderland (H) - 4.8 predicted points
West Ham's Jarrod Bowen remains the third-highest scoring forward in the game, but has struggled for ownership throughout the campaign, being in just 8.1% of teams. He continues to play reverse out of position as a winger, although classified as a forward in the game.
He’s amassed eight goal involvements in this campaign: six goals and two assists. He has one goal in the last four Gameweeks, having had nine shots and two big chances on goal in this period.
