With Gameweek 6 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) nearing, it’s time to nail down our Scout Picks for the upcoming round of fixtures.

Our in-house team have put their heads together to produce the following selection.

As ever, certain restrictions limit us:

  • An £83.0m budget for our starting XI
  • An overall squad limit of £100.0m
  • No more than three players per team

GAMEWEEK 6 SCOUT PICKS

FPL Gameweek 6 Scout Picks: Man City triple-up 3

GOALKEEPER

Djordje Petrovic (£4.5m) is our chosen goalkeeper after three of our Scout Squad pundits included him in their submissions. The 25-year-old is playing in front of a defence that has proved to be both resolute and organised so far, and could be in line for a fourth clean sheet of the season. Leeds United, meanwhile, are yet to score a goal from open play at Elland Road. They also rank 20th for non-penalty expected goals (NPxG).

    Bench one:

    A) Anderson (SUN)
    B) Senesi (lee)
    C) Gabriel (new)

    Thanks.

      Tough, and a bit mad to say but maybe C?

    2. Waynoo

      Gabriel

    3. Catastrophe
      • 15 Years

      Thanks both. I'm on A but unsure. Newcastle don't seem to score many and Gabriel corner threat.

  6. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Pep's high praise on Foden make me think that he's going to bench him tomorrow

    1. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Especially the "he can definitely play every three days" comment 😀

      reply fail

  8. x.jim.x
    • 11 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    My brain is stuck trying to pick the best combination of Arsenal + Newcastle + City assets:

    A) Raya / Donnarumma / Pope (pick 1)
    B) Gabriel / Gvardiol / Burn (pick 2)

    Thinking Pope + Gabriel + Gvardiol because 5.5 on a keeper makes me feel ill

    1. Hairy Potter
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      I'd go with the three you've picked.

      1. Punned It
        • 1 Year
        6 months, 12 days ago

        This.

  9. Meta12345
    • 1 Year
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Would you play mitoma ahead of strand larsen given the comments by coach that larsen is still not 100%?

    Also talisman palmer, tosin and fofana out in favour of mitoma. Thank you for your help guys

    1. Mr.K
      • 12 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      I would play Mitoma ahead of Strand Larsen no matter what.

      I don't quite understand the second question, if it's a question.

    2. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Yeah Chelsea are all over the place at the back

  10. Drizzle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 2 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    For the next 3 or 4 weeks

    A) Xavi + KDH
    B) Kudus + KDH
    C) Ndiaye + Stach

    1. Punned It
      • 1 Year
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Kudus + Stach

  11. Tim2012
    • 13 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Ekitike to (free transfer)

    A) Richarlison
    B) Gyokeres
    C) Someone else (please advise)
    D) keep Ekiteke on the bench and play Gud in defence

    1. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      A

  12. 1314
    • 11 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Don't see much of Jaidon Anthony being suggested here compared to the likes of Reijnders, Ndiaye, Grealish or Kudus. Is he not good?

    1. Mr.K
      • 12 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Good is very subjective. He's certainly better than me, but probably not as good as Grealish.

      For FPL points one crucial factor is that he plays for Burnley.

  13. Jokesy87
    • 11 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    A) Salah Mukiele Gudmundson Isidor (or Muniz)
    B) Bruno Andersen Tarkowski Gyokeres

    1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      A but not much in it

    2. Punned It
      • 1 Year
      6 months, 12 days ago

      B. But I wouldn't Konsa.

  20. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Bench Munoz or Gundmonssen?? Or play both and bench Sarr ( Palace ) ??

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Play Sarr to start then one

  21. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Do we think Porro will start?

    1. Punned It
      • 1 Year
      6 months, 12 days ago

      FFS certainly don't.

  22. Weeb Kakashi
    • 10 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Really tempted by a WC in GW8. Allows you to get a Salah Palmer and a Haaland team which Itself will be a good differential as compared to the GW6 WC's.

    1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      That's what im doing

      1. Weeb Kakashi
        • 10 Years
        6 months, 12 days ago

        Any drafts in mind?

        1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          6 months, 12 days ago

          Yep, but a lot depends on Palmer, Isak minutes, Saka, and Newcastle assets

        2. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          6 months, 12 days ago

          Can I ask, ....Bench Munoz or Gundmonssen?? Or play both and bench Sarr ( Palace ) ??

          1. Weeb Kakashi
            • 10 Years
            6 months, 12 days ago

            I'd play both Palace guys. More route to points but don't see a CS there.

  23. Brunsvigeren
    • 10 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Is this FreeHit'able? To jump on some City, Spurs, Chelsea assets?

    Raya
    Virgil, Munoz, Sensei
    Salah, Semenyo, Reijnders, eze
    Bowen, Issak, Mateta
    Dubravka, King, Andersen, Guehi

    1. Brunsvigeren
      • 10 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Pull the trigger?

  24. bobson5
    • 15 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Start Dewsbury-Hall or Rogers?

    1. Drizzle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      KDH

  25. Drizzle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 2 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    A) Kudus
    B) Xavi

    1. Punned It
      • 1 Year
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Kudus.

  26. Kane Train
    • 11 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Which one would you rather have?

    A) Bruno
    B) Gyokores

    1. Meechum
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 2 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Just commented on your first post.
      A in my opinion.
      This game comes down to whoever gets most minutes and touches the ball most.
      The underlying attacking stats of United this year are nuts, they just need the final product. Cunha back is a huge plus.
      The argument for Gyokeres is simply that premium forwards are minimal and he could have an uptick in goals/touches now that Saka is back.

  27. Dollyems15
    • 4 Years
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Struggling with who to bench this week, current thoughts are below:
    Raya
    Porro, Senesi, Gvardiol
    Semenyo, mbuemo,Doku, Grealish.
    Haaland, Gyokeres, Richarlison.

    Dubravka, Stach, Gudmunson, Andersen.

    No sure if I should start Stach and Gudmunson over Senesi and Gyokeres.

    Anyone any thoughts?

    1. Punned It
      • 1 Year
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Deffo keep Senesi on. I have very low expectations for Gyökeres, but maybe not enough to play Stach instead.

    2. Dollyems15
      • 4 Years
      6 months, 12 days ago

      Yehs its a tricky one, see leeds scoring and if stach playing a 10 again could be good but gyokeres poss on pens so undecided haha

      1. Punned It
        • 1 Year
        6 months, 12 days ago

        I think you'd very possibly get 3 or 4 out of Stach, maybe an attacking return. Gyökeres could be 2-9 points, but my money's on the lower end.

  28. Punned It
    • 1 Year
    6 months, 12 days ago

    Benching Porro for Lacroix. Sound? Rodon's the alternative.

    1. Captain Mal
      • 1 Year
      6 months, 12 days ago

      It's tricky. Porro is clearly the best choice, but the risk of the 1-point cameo feels unnecessary when the other guys are almost guaranteed 3-pointers.
      It's close between the other two, I'd play Rodon.
      Leeds have the higher CS odds, while I don't think it's likely LaCroix's advantages (attacking threat and defcons) amount to anything. Defenders facing Bournemouth tend to get defcons due to their high-intensity playing style and Liverpool are the league's best team in defending set pieces.

      1. Punned It
        • 1 Year
        6 months, 12 days ago

        Thank you so much for your insights! Will play Rodon.
