Gameweek 4’s Sunday Fantasy Premier League matches look set to be heavily effected by set pieces this weekend.

In the second part of our regular set piece match-ups article, we’ve noticed some more areas for exploitation and had a look at the underlying numbers behind Wolves’ goals so far to see if they are sustainable.

Fantasy Football Scout members can view the data both in the Members Area and in the article below, where we go into a bit more detail.

      1. bdwhite91
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Haha okay, but it's so hard to bench Tosun but also hard to see PVA on the bench

    2. Regin
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Why not? Fancy crypal keeping a cs at home to shampton.

      1. bdwhite91
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Yeah and both fullbacks have a chance for attacking returns

  3. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Start Fraser (have Alonso) or WanB for palace defensive double up?

    1. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Fraser

    2. Yeyeyeyeye
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      W-B

  4. Ten Season Wonder
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Been absorbing Jonty's advice of bringing in Alonso over Walcott this week.

    Means holding onto Richarlison - as he isn't in immediate danger of a price fall - hopefully.

    1. Udo
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      He isn't really no, currently on -77%

  5. Hardly Athletic
    • 17 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Kane > Aguero for free? Gives me the chance to do Mane > Hazard next gameweek.

    1. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      you on crack bro?

    2. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      K > A ok

      Wait to see on Haz and Mane

    3. Typo
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Yes, would def fear going without Aguero against castle at home

  6. Big W
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    NEED HELP!

    Patricio (Foster)
    Mendy | Robertson | Shaw | WB (Pelt)
    Mane | Salah | Mkh (Cairney, Rich)
    Zaha | Aguero | Mitro

    1FT & 0.3 ITB

    Am I GTG or shall I use my FT to swap out Rich for another mid? or use 2FT next week?

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Rich to Wally or GTG if you wanna save

  7. Old Wulfrunian
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Keane->Alonso or should i start Holebas/Chilwell?

    1. JamieC180
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      For a hit?

      1. Old Wulfrunian
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        yes

        1. JamieC180
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          Tough call. I'd prob avoid the hit, personally.

          1. Krionos
            • 16 Years
            8 years, 17 days ago

            I generally steer well clear of -4 for defenders. Alonso could be an exception, considering Chillwell and Holebas have tough fixtures.

            But you just never know, Watford have been solid so far and Holebas could well get some attacking returns.

            I wouldn't and play Holebas.

    2. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      thanks both.

  8. JamieC180
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Who's the best shout to play this week?

    A) Neves
    B) Bailly

    Feel like Bailly will make a return. Also feel like it's either 90 minutes or 0, which is ideal.

    1. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      a

      1. JamieC180
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Do you mind me asking whether that's a wolves shirt in your profile pic

    2. Yeyeyeyeye
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      B because as you’ve aluded to he’ll play 0 or 90

  9. MG13
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Who shoul I play?
    A) AWB vs SOU
    B) VVD vs lei
    C) Neves/Jota vs whu

    1. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      b

  10. michudagawd
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Any reason to fear a Bilva benching or should he hold his place?

    1. JamieC180
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      I have no valuable input to offer but I'd just like you to know that I like the cadence of the phrase Bilva benching

      1. michudagawd
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Got a nice ring to it. 🙂

    2. I Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Always reason to fear with the options they have. Hopefully he starts again.

    3. Critical Observer
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      No concrete reason. The fans are fairly unanimous in wanting to see him start centrally in place of Gündogan.

  11. Ask Yourself
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Pressed wildcard because I assumed Arnie was out but don’t want him long term hope he doesn't embarrass me over the next two think he’ll do really well West Ham are final starting to click

    1. michudagawd
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      I sold him for a hit. Got Mitro in, hope he outscores him at least.

  12. CaTriEm
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Rate My Bet:

    Crystal Palace to beat Southampton
    Man City to beat Newcastle
    Everton to beat Huddersfield
    Watford & Spurs to draw

    @ 11/1

    1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      3/4 Spurs win

      1. CaTriEm
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Every small acca needs a moneymaker, any suggestion rather than Watford v Spurs?

        1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          Don't listen to me, I've paid for 3 Hilton hotels for Ladbrokes plc.

          1. CaTriEm
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 17 days ago

            I like to line Paddy Power's pockets myself although my brother just got a job in Ladbrokes so may have to switch allegiance.

            1. THE SHEEP HUNTERS

      spurs will demolish watford

      kane hatty

  13. KingoftheRunts
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Hey fellas,

    Would you bench Ryan Fraser or David Luiz? Feel like Bmouth have a decent chance of scoring but benching a premium(ish) defender at home seems like a waste.

    I could also spread the risk by playing both and benching Luke Shaw, Danny Ings or TAA. Any advice appreciated!

    1. Critical Observer
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Danny Ings being Danny Ings has gone and got a blister on his foot, currently a slight doubt for the weekend - something to keep an eye on, ear out.

      1. KingoftheRunts
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Typical!

  14. Davido989
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Klopp's presser:

    On squad depth: "We have started 3 times in a row with the same line up, that won't be possible too often in the future."

    On opposition: "Chilwell is a massive player for them, with a great future. Big, big talent."

    On selection: "I am pretty open (to change team). I want to see who shows (in training), who proves to me. That's the best way. That's one part, and then what fits to the opponent too."

    On Mignolet: "Discussing your individual problems in public doesn't make too much sense. If you want to say something, say it to me directly (rather) than to a newspaper."

    1. J T

      Robertson mane Firmino and no bench.. this week shall be fun 😀

    2. Firmino
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Chilwell to replace Moreno next season?

      1. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Robertson in January

    3. boc610
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      studge and/ or shaq to get a start

    4. I Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Expecting the same lineup again. Rotation to kick in after the international break.

      1. Yankee Toffee
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        this

      2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        agreed, difficult to see it happening in an away game too

        Likely to see rotation v southampton, don't think salah is as safe as people think

      3. boc610
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        they have city spurs chelsea in between now and 0ct 7, these are the kind of games it has to be done in.

        1. I Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 17 days ago

          There's two weeks between now and the next Premier League game. Rotating in this one isn't going to make a difference for those games.

  15. Net Gains
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Predict Aguero's points this week (don't double it for captain points)

    I'm going with 11 points

    1. Davido989
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      13

    2. Pinturicchio10

  16. jayzico
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Mkh (no Auba) or Lucas. The latter being my differential.

    WHo would you choose

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      Tough call, 50/50

    Is it worth 4 pts to do Aspilqueta to Alonso?

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      n

    2. boc610
      • 14 Years

      chelsea wont keep cleanies playing Sarri-ball, so yes

    3. XABI 15
      • 10 Years

    4. Typo

      Best spelling of Azpi I have ever seen mate, and no I would not take the hit. Wait till next week for a free if you can

  19. XABI 15
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    G2G? Correct bench order?

    Foster
    Mendy Robertson Alonso Wan B
    Salah Mane Mhki Gundogan Walcott
    Aguero

    Speroni King Ings Peltier

    4. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years

      Just with Pool's upcoming fixtures, there's bound to be some rotation...

  21. Teror
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Currently ranked 160,918. Do I still have a chance of winning this thing?

    1. XABI 15

      yes

    2. Pompel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      There's 35 gameweeks left you know.

  22. Yankee Toffee
    • 11 Years

    Two 4.5m keepers + Fraser + Wilson (0.3 bank)
    Or
    Edison + Neves + Wilson (0.1 bank)
    Or
    Two 4.5m keepers + Neves + Mitrovic (0.1 bank)

    WC dilemma here. Which is the best combo with a long term focus?

    1. Bonus magnet
      • 9 Years

      last option long term

  24. Pompel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    Thoughts on Bellerin for Arsenal's nice run of fixtures? Good price, surely a few cs'es ad attacking returns in there?

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 17 days ago

      great going forward, rubbish defending. depends what Emery has in mind...wait and see imho

      1. Pompel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 17 days ago

        Txs. Maybe keep on looking for that shrewd 5-5.5m defender pick or next GW's then.

  25. Bavarian
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 17 days ago

    King or Jota to start???

    1. Goat

    Would you spend 4pts to get rid of either Lacazette or Cairney?

    I'll be playing Doherty (whu) in place of Cairney if I keep.

    0.5 ITB

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 11 Years

        8 years, 17 days ago

        Cheers, Don't think I would either... not idea, but can't see anyone I want for a hit really.

        Lacazette is a right failed punt, though, can't wait to sell!
