Fantasy EFL: Gameweek 5 Scout Picks

Gameweek 5 of Fantasy EFL is nearly upon us, so we’ve put together our final ‘starting’ Scout Picks. Use them as inspiration for your own team, if you so wish.

Our expert panel are set to begin unveiling their carefully curated teams ahead of Saturday’s 15:00 BST deadline.

Our own team is set but remember, it’s a rollercoaster of a Gameweek. Expect the unexpected and adjust your squad accordingly. Further details on the selections can be viewed here but we’ll outline the key reasons below.

JOIN OUR MINI LEAGUE

We’re launching a new FFS league starting from Gameweek 5, with c. £500 worth of prizes on offer. The top manager gets £100, the second receives £75 and third-place wins £50, whilst the next four runners-up will get a free year’s subscription to FFS Premium (worth c.£65 at full price, £39 current discount – if you are already a member we’ll add a free year), and a final two will get a free month of premium (worth £6.59 at full price).

In order to qualify for the tournament you need to be a free member of FFS and sign up to the league via the codeXYNH57PM

GOALKEEPER

Paul Farman (2%)

Barrow are set to face Swindon Town at Holker Street in Gameweek 5. Farman has accumulated 26 total points so far, including three clean sheets (+15) for the Bluebirds, on conceding one goal against Carlisle United in Gameweek 2. The Robins have scored two goals and conceded seven so far this campaign, and Farman will be hoping for another clean sheet lock and potential save points.

DEFENDERS

Mickey Demetriou (2.7%)

Crewe Alexandra captain Demetriou earns a starting nod for their home clash against Morecambe. Despite a solid average of 7.8 points per game, Demetriou remains somewhat undervalued at just 2.7% ownership. The defender’s recent goal against Tranmere Rovers (+7) highlights his attacking potential, especially when considering his nine goals scored last season. With Morecambe struggling to find the net, managers can feel confident in Demetriou’s ability to contribute defensively and potentially provide attacking returns.

Fantasy EFL Gameweek 1 recap - top scorers 4

Max Cleworth (6.4%)

Wrexham’s Aaron Cleworth is a standout defensive option in Fantasy EFL. He’s been instrumental for Phil Parkinson’s side this season, earning a spot in their starting lineup. As the top-scoring Fantasy EFL defender in League One and League Two, Cleworth has amassed 39 points, including two goals (+14). With Shrewsbury Town visiting the Racecourse Ground and having lost both away games 1-0 this season, Cleworth’s chances of a clean sheet and defensive contributions look promising.

MIDFIELDERS

Adam Phillips (2.9%)

Barnsley’s Phillips has secured a spot in our midfield following back-to-back sensational performances. Barnsley’s number eight has scored three goals (+18) in two games and also provided an assist (+3) in Gameweek 1. In their upcoming game against Bristol Rovers (H) up next, Phillips will play an important role if the Tykes are to secure a win against the Gas, who have only conceded two this season.

Luke Molyneux (14.1%)

Doncaster Rovers’ Luke Molyneux is a must-have for Fantasy EFL managers this Gameweek. The midfielder has been in sensational form, earning his second 19-point haul in Gameweek 4 with a brace (+12) and an assist (+3) against Port Vale. Facing Gillingham at the Eco-Power Stadium, Molyneux will need to continue his impressive performances if Doncaster are to secure a win against the unbeaten Gills. He wears the armband… never in doubt!

Fantasy EFL Scout Squad: Gameweek 5

FORWARDS

Jodi Jones (9.4%)

The highest-scoring Fantasy EFL forward in League One and League Two, Notts County’s Jones is our first pick. Scoring two goals (+10) and providing two assists (+6) in four games, Jones has been fantastic for the Magpies again this season. With Accrington Stanley at Meadow Lane up next, who have conceded 11 goals in four games, seven of which coming away from home, Jones will be looking for his fifth return of the campaign.

Billy Sharp (4.2%)

To complete our player selections, Doncaster Rovers’ Sharp makes the selection. Last time out, Sharp secured his first double-digit haul of the campaign, scoring (+5) and assisting (+3) in Donny’s 2-3 away win at Port Vale, securing 12 points. If Donny are to beat Gillingham, Sharp will almost certainly be involved in the action!

CLUB PICKS

Based on our Scout (player) picks, we’ve chosen to back two home teams this week. We’re prioritising nailing points in this blank Gameweek, focusing on teams likely to secure a clean sheet and 2+ goals.

WREXHAM

Wrexham, the most selected club at 16.3%, paired with Max Cleworth, are our top pick. They have been exceptional, averaging eight points per game, scoring eight goals and conceding only two. Unbeaten all season, the Red Dragons are strong favourites against Shrewsbury Town, who have won only one of their last four games, conceding six goals in the process. Shrewsbury have lost both away fixtures so far by 1-0. We anticipate a convincing win for Wrexham with at least two goals for the hosts – we hope!

NOTTS COUNTY

Notts County, paired with Jodi Jones, are the second-most selected club at 5.6% and another strong choice this week. Given the blank Gameweek 5, we don’t feel either pick is wasted. Unbeaten so far, scoring eight goals and conceding four, the Magpies have been impressive in League Two and are just two points off the top. We expect at least two goals scored, considering Accrington have conceded 11 this season. While a clean sheet might be challenging due to both the ‘Owd Reds scoring in both of their away games, we’ll be satisfied with a win and two or more goals, totalling seven points.

FINAL TOP TIPS

Master the opening weekend with our essential Blank Gameweek 5 Guide. From Scout Picks and captaincy advice and top player picks, our guide has everything you need to dominate Gameweek 5. Don’t forget the deadline is Saturday 15:00 BST.

      True, but Diaz could become Mbeumo, Eze, Bowen, Gordon, Madueke, Mitoma, Jota, etc.

      I think it's close. Hard to look past Rogers' value admittedly, assuming he keeps playing full games once CL starts.

        At the same time though palmer can become any of those too. Plus being left out of the European squad is interesting

      Morning all!What would you do here?Which defender must go first?
      I am thinking Saka+Maddison->Salah+Madueke.

      Pope
      Porro/Lewis/Quansah
      Saka/Eze/Jota/Rogers
      Armstrong/Haaland/Isak

      Virginia/Maddison/Hall/Johnson

          Getting rid of Quansah (=having a proper third def) and then probably getting Salah are reasonable moves. For this he probably needs to move Maddision to a cheaper so this with -4 is fine for me and thus no need to wc necessarily.

          But then again, wc is definitely something to consider 😀

        Not Madueke - the only Chelsea MID worth considering is Palmer.

          And at £10.6m therein lies the problem if you have Salah and Haaland (as you should).

      Not thinking of WC now, 1FT - 3.0 ITB

      Henderson (valdimarsson)
      Porro, Gvardiol, Robinson (quansah, harwood-bellis)
      Saka, Jota, Rogers, Gordon (winks)
      Haaland, Isak, Muniz

      A) Quansah --- Konate
      B) Quansah + Gordon --- Robertson + Eze (-4)
      C) Quansah + Gordon --- TAA + Minteh (-4)

      is Lucas Digne nailed now with Cash injury? I don’t want to buy Konsa to cover Villa defense because he offers nothing other than cleans. What do you say? Any Villa fans to answer

        Not a villa fan but Digne is competing with Maatsen at LB. Champions league is going to make things awkward aswell

          That's fine you maybe right but Villa played UEFA Conference Thursday games last season and still managed CS and 4th place. Better off playing CL games for longer turnaround

        Wing it for now. I like to plan ahead for the week that I intend to WC, but it's very unlikely to be the best move for me in the next 3 weeks so I'll just reevaluate as we go.

        Dont own haaland and have salah Trent Jota Mbeumo isak and saka with two free transfers.

        So probably hold until haaland or a big injury / palmer haul forces my hand;

        Need rid of Pickford

        Wing it.

        Was considering WC this week but used up my 3 FT instead.

        If I save my WC I will have to play either Mykolenko or Murillo in defence next weekend. Not sure a 4 point hit to replace Myk will fare me any better.

        Maatsen was LB in last season CL whoscored best XI playing for Dortmund. He's not starting most likely because Emery obsessed about back 4 system so maybe not up to speed yet. Maatsen has come on as a sub as LM. TL:DR answer is no one knows other than Emery

      1) Best 4.5 goalkeeper?
      Currently with Henderson

      2) Best 4.5 Aston Villa defender?

      Is Calvert Lewin a decent striker option? He has AVL away which is tricky, but then a really nice long run of games. Good minutes so far, should be on pens.

      Looking for an Armstrong replacement. Going off Pedro as he’s a minutes risk for GW4, and GW6 on is a bad run.

        I tell you what, it's better than 4.5m non playing forward. Also we need to drop the "is pen taker" narrative as is clear as per PGMOL that this season they are under instruction that there's a higher bar for awarding penalties

          Armstrong is also better than 0 points. I am hoping DCL can outperform Pedro, rather than a non-player.

          Probably will be less pens, but still relevant.

        I would start Muniz and Konsa.

      Who looks the best 4,5 keeper to you? I feel like no one has yet emerged as a stand out option.

        I wish they'd get on with their emerging. Haven't really liked any GKs since 22/3! Suppose I'd go for Verbruggen/Sels if on WC now

        Pickford didn't emerge until GW8 last year so what might appear the best option now is probably just fixture related so far

        Flekken or Verbruggen. I'm glad I'm not on WC now so I have a few more weeks to assess which is better. Leaning Flekken in 6+

          I've got Flekken with Henderson (from the beginning of the season) and neither of them convince me but its very early days and they aren't disasters either and rotate ok. Brighton do look really solid under Hurzeler (so far) so I can see myself heading towards Verbruggen.

          Also is it just me who thinks like this but part of the reason I was never on Pickford last year is because there was a cheaper way in to the cleans from Branthwaite. I can't see myself going to any keeper if I can get a defender from them for less so this could become an issue with Flekken if the guy they got from Liverpool becomes a starter. Can't see myself ever going to Ramsdale or Johnstone while there are options for less there. Can't see myself going for either defence anyway to be fair.

        I think they’re all as bad as each other.

        Unless you go for Allison or Raya the rest of the keepers don’t look enthralling at all.

        I have Flekken and his understudy cos I can’t be arsed to spend more on the position unless it’s for Raya.

        I would do Konsa to Digne. Aston Villa got nice fixtures.

        Newcastle have 2 away games and then City.

      What's your verdict?
      A. Play Saliba (tot)
      B. Play Porro (ARS)
      C. Saliba > Robertson (NFO) for WC6 to reverse

      Wildcard team second draft:

      Sanchez ( Flekken )
      TAA- Digne - Lewis (Robinson - Harwood)
      Salah - L.Diaz - Madueke - Onana ( Adama)
      Havertz - J.Pedro - Haaland C

        Onana and Traore aren't picks. DCM and a guy who has never been fantasy relevant. Just picking recent goal scorers

            Not a popular choice, but I have Onana. I thought about Adama to free up 0.5 for Defence from ESR, I went Palmer & nailed 4.0 & Raya instead of your Sanchez TAA Madueke. Optimistic

          Watkins and Palmer reported to England camp and were sent back to there clubs due to medical assessments. Emery said after last game Watkins had minor injury and was playing through it so managed minutes as well as limited pre season

          Dont mind Diaz as much, their 2nd game is Tuesday so he should be back in traingin by thursday.

          Pedro more likely to miss but on WC so looking longer term than this GW & have Wissa there if needed.

            I got Pedro early to get Salah -4, of course he gets late call up. Hope for the best but have decent 1st sub and worst case pays off next game

              Same.

              I did it to avoid price rises as needed to get Salah and funds are tight.

              Glad to be rid of Muniz anyway.

          The problem is they’re all expensive so it’s hard to triple up if you have Salah and Haaland.

            True but lots of people will triple / double up so I think at least some coverage is wise

          Will probably losse Diaz/Eze for cheaper mid and get Raya

          Saka can go in for Palmer depending on on form of Palmer

      Sanchez - Fab
      Konsa - Robinson - TAA - HB- Greaves
      Salah - L.Diaz - Bowen - Rogers - Winks
      Haaland - Isak - J.Pedro
