Our Friday lunchtime regular is served up once again, as we analyse the PlayON player price list ahead of tomorrow’s 10.45am deadline. As usual, we offer a couple of picks per position, with an essential weekend target and a left-field alternative for your consideration.

This week PlayON have a £1,000 Guaranteed Pot on offer for the full Gameweek. In addition, there is a £250 Guaranteed pot for each of their daily games on Saturday, Sunday and Monday – View the Guaranteed Pots Here.

Goalkeeper – Vito Mannone
We’re keeping faith in the Italian once again, after he vindicated our pick last week with six saves and a clean sheet in the Black Cats’ draw at Burnley. Sunderland entertain Swansea at the Stadium of Light tomorrow afternoon and after a promising start to the season, the Swans failed to score at home against Southampton in the previous round – at 7.9m, Mannone looks a strong option, given that save points are worth 200 points in the PlayON scoring matrix. West Brom’s Ben Foster is another stopper to consider at just 7.6m. The Baggies host a Burnley side who are yet to score since Scott Arfield’s goal in their opening match of the season against Chelsea and, with Joleon Lescott now fully fit, seems to have stepped up in resilience.

Defender – Ryan Bertrand
The Southampton defence has been solid so far this season, keeping a trio of clean sheets and conceding just three times, fewer than any other team in the league. The Saints welcome QPR to St Mary’s and the left-back looks a strong shout for points at both ends of the pitch – Bertrand has one assist so far and comes in at just 7.5m, compared to team-mate Nathaniel Clyne’s 8.9m. Chelsea’s home clash with Villa also looks a strong source of defensive points. Gary Cahill (8.1m) has played every minute so far for the west London team and the Blues’ centre-half will pose an aerial threat in the box against a visitors’ defence likely to be without skipper Ron Vlaar once again. Paul Lambert’s side may have picked up the points at Anfield but the league leaders are a different proposition altogether and with just four goals scored, the midlands outfit could struggle to breach Jose Mourinho’s backline.

Midfielder – Victor Moses
The Nigerian has quickly established himself on the Stoke left flank, having started each of the last three matches since arriving on loan from Chelsea. Moses served up an assist in last weekend’s draw at QPR and could be a bargain for 8.3m as the Potters entertain out-of-sorts face a Newcastle at the Britannia this weekend. Andre Schurrle may have had relatively limited pitch time so far but – as evidenced by last week’s draw at Man City – he’s more than capable of delivering the points as a substitute. Perhaps a little risky at 9.5m, the German’s eye for goal has already seen him notch twice – more than any Chelsea midfielder in a free-scoring side that has already notched 16 times in the first five Gameweeks.

Forward – Robin Van Persie
In previous seasons it would have been unthinkable to label Van Persie as a left-field pick. Although United’s defence looks best left alone in terms of Fantasy investment, Louis van Gaal’s side have picked up in the final third and scored seven times in two matches since moving to a midfield diamond. There’s no Van Persie has had a slow start to the campaign but. After scoring his first goal of the campaign last weekend, is starting to rediscover his form and, at 10.5m in the PlayON Player Price List, is cheaper than t Wayne Rooney (12.0m) as a route into the Red Devils’ attack. Southampton’s Graziano Pelle has an excellent fixture against QPR this week. The Italian has hit some form with three goals and an assist in his last three and, priced at 11.2m, will be confident of maintaining the run against a backline that has conceded four times in each of their two away matches so far.
