Saudi Fantasy managers head into Round 13 with several key decisions to make, as fixture swings, form trends, and value picks all come into play.
Our Round 13 team reveals provide a clear snapshot of how managers plan to attack the Gameweek and where the biggest opportunities may lie.
@DrWaleedKhokhar
NOTES
- A huge swing landed last round, as M. Al Shamat and Julian Quiñones helped me hit more than 100 points off the bench.
- Three transfers followed. Ruben Neves made way for Mourad Batna amid exit concerns. Alexandre Lacazette moved on for H. Al-Ali, with a −4 hit taken to fund Danilo.
- Another luxury transfer remains possible, although it may roll over into Round 14.
- At the back, Theo Hernandez, M. Al Shamat, and Danilo get the nod, while Nathan Zézé, Ali Majrashi, and H. Al-Ali sit on the bench.
- The midfield stays largely unchanged, with Batna the only new addition.
- Up front, Cristiano Ronaldo wears the armband and starts alongside Roger Martínez.
@FPL_Chubbs
NOTES
- After another red arrow, the rank drops to 4.5k and triggers the need for change.
- Several enablers no longer start, which removes their value and makes a points hit likely this week.
- Ivan Toney acts as the main cash cow. He offers strong minutes and penalty duties, but similar output now comes at a much lower price than £10.4m. January also brings uncertainty, with rumours of a Premier League loan move.
- The planned moves see Ivan Toney replaced by Ramiro Enrique, which then enables Enzo Millot to upgrade into Gini Wijnaldum, alongside Al Baswari making way for Francisco Calvo, for a −8 hit.
- The changes target Al-Ettifaq’s short-term fixture run and reshape the squad structure.
- Plenty of money remains in the bank, which keeps flexibility high for future rounds.
- The plan also includes holding back the remaining chips for later in the season.
- For captaincy, Gini Wijnaldum currently leads the thinking. Going against Cristiano Ronaldo rarely happens, but the fixture context for Al-Nassr makes it a calculated risk this round.
@Dr_Abdullah_MRM
NOTES
- One transfer is already complete, with Wesley moving out for Giorgos Masouras. There is also the option to take a hit and bring in Theo Hernandez in place of Yami.
- Captaincy will go to Salem Al-Dawsari if he proves fit. Otherwise, Joshua King will take the armband.
@FPL_Abdullah
NOTES
- The last round delivered my best score of the season, with a 114-point return.
- The squad now sits in a strong position with two free transfers available, and the possibility of a third.
- I’m currently waiting on fitness news for Salem Al-Dawsari. If he fails to recover, the move to Gini Wijnaldum becomes straightforward. Otherwise, I plan to roll the transfers, which remains the most likely outcome.
- For captaincy, the armband stays on Cristiano Ronaldo, especially with Roger Ibañez suspended.
- Good luck to everyone this round.
@hassanelolemy
NOTES
- The squad remains unchanged from last week.
- The only difference comes in captaincy, with the armband moving to Cristiano Ronaldo.
