With the holiday season approaching, the Premier League promises an exciting season with numerous teams competing for the title, European spots, and to avoid relegation. In the latest round of matches, Arsenal continued their winning streak, while Manchester City controversially drew against Tottenham. Liverpool secured a victory over Fulham and Newcastle defeated Manchester United, with Burnley thrashing Sheffield United 5-0 to move up the table. As December brings a flurry of games, the next Fantasy Premier League gameweek is set to begin on Tuesday.
Here are five players expected to shine in gameweek 15, as managers strategize their transfers and consider playing their wildcard:
Martin Odegaard, Arsenal (8.3)
Having recovered from injury, Odegaard is back as Arsenal’s playmaker, featuring in their last two Premier League matches and scoring against Wolves. With an upcoming game against Luton, Odegaard is set to add more points to his tally in goals or assists.
Darwin Nunez, Liverpool (7.7)
Though Nunez experienced a dry spell in November, Liverpool’s game against Sheffield United presents an opportunity for him to regain his scoring form, likely with support from Mo Salah.
Kenny Tete, Fulham (4.4)
Tete, returning from injury, is a promising bargain for Fantasy Premier League managers. Although Fulham’s defensive record has been inconsistent, Tete’s attacking skills are likely to earn points.
Dominic Solanke, Bournemouth (6.5)
With an impressive run, Solanke provides a cost-effective solution in the forward line and could capitalize on Bournemouth’s upcoming fixture against Crystal Palace, a team that has recently struggled defensively.
Hwang Hee-Chan, Wolves (5.6)
A budget-friendly addition to the midfield, Hee-Chan’s potential to score could pay off against Burnley, as Wolves aim to create scoring opportunities in the upcoming fixture.
