Our Gameweek 24 differentials column brings a trio of low-owned Fantasy Premier League (FPL) assets for your consideration.


ISMAILA SARR

Why FPL Gameweek 17 could be a 'blank' for four clubs 3

  • FPL ownership: 2.0%
  • Price: £6.3m
  • GW24-28 fixtures: nfo | bha | BUR | WOL | mun

Now down to only £6.3m in FPL, Ismaila Sarr could be worth a roll of the dice, with Crystal Palace set to embark on one of the best mid-term schedules:

In his first match back since the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), Sarr failed to score or provide an assist; however, he racked up two Opta-defined ‘big chances’ against Chelsea, as well as creating one for team-mate Jean-Philippe Mateta (£7.5m).

And with some tempting fixtures on the way, particularly in Gameweeks 24-27, Sarr could be a quality differential option.

Crucially, Gameweek 24 opponents Nottingham Forest have been conceding key passes (15) down their left side over the last four matches, the third-most of any team, which suggests the pace and power of Sarr and Daniel Munoz (£5.8m) could cause further damage.

Above: Nottingham Forest’s chances created conceded heatmap (last four Gameweeks)

Indeed, Sarr has already found the net against Forest in 2025/26, notably from a Munoz cross. He nearly won a penalty in the same match, too.

With Palace in desperate need of a win to help steer them clear of the relegation zone, the onus will clearly be on Sarr, who is owned by only 2.0% of Fantasy managers, to provide the attacking impetus and a much-needed lift at the City Ground.


YERSON MOSQUERA

FPL Gameweek 24 differentials: 3 low-owned picks to consider

  • FPL ownership: 0.1%
  • Price: £4.3m
  • GW24-28 fixtures: BOU | CHE | nfo | cry | AVL

Yerson Mosquera (£4.3m) could be worth a look as a cheap defender.

The Colombian centre-back has impressed in Rob Edwards’ 3-5-2 formation recently, banking defensive contribution (DefCon) points in five of his last seven starts.

He’s also racked up 10 shots over the last five Gameweeks (including five in one match against Manchester City), the joint-most of any FPL defender.

Above: Yerson Mosquera’s shot map in Gameweeks 19-23

Notably, five of those goal attempts have arrived from corners and free-kicks, a potentially important factor with Bournemouth up next.

Indeed, no team has conceded more goals from dead-ball situations than the Cherries in 2025/26:

However, it is important to mention that Mosquera is fond of a yellow card, with eight bookings in his last 11 matches.

Discussing his recent impact, Edwards said:

“I think he’s great. He’s fully committed and he plays with passion. It’s just who he is. We’ve got to try and control it. We need 11 people on the pitch and we don’t want him getting booked every week, but he’s someone that’s got great athleticism. You can move him to a right-back position. He can go up against someone like Doku and cope with him, and not many can do that. So, he’s very important to us.

“I know it’s hard when people look at the table, and they’ll sort of think, ‘well, they’re rubbish’, but I don’t think we are. Hopefully we’re showing that as well, and we’re trying to improve week on week. The players are working really hard and we’ve got to keep doing that.” – Rob Edwards on Yerson Mosquera

At just £4.3m and with a potential Double Gameweek 26, Mosquera could offer value, particularly having kept clean sheets in each of his last two Molineux encounters against West Ham United and Newcastle United.


KIERNAN DEWSBURY-HALL

Who is close to a ban or suspended in FPL Gameweek 6?

  • FPL ownership: 2.1%
  • Price: £4.9m
  • GW24-28 fixtures: bha | ful | BOU | MUN | new

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall (£4.9m) returned from injury in Everton’s 1-1 draw with Leeds United on Monday, and is now firmly back on the FPL radar.

The budget midfielder was in superb form before succumbing to injury, with five attacking returns (three goals, two assists) in as many matches.

In that period (Gameweeks 11-15), he averaged 8.2 points per start.

Everton travel to out-of-form Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday.

David Moyes’ team have a solid record on the road, too, having won four, drawn one and lost one of their last six away matches.

Brighton, meanwhile, have managed just one win in their last 10 Premier League encounters, a period (Gameweeks 14-23) in which they’ve conceded 17.14 expected goals (xG), the third most of any team.

“This is a mad league this year. We want to be in the European spots and we have got a lot of important games. We are playing a lot of teams that we have played and beaten. It is down to us now, and it is on us. If we want to achieve something we have to show it.” – Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall

Dewsbury-Hall is currently owned by only 2.1% of Fantasy managers, but there is no question that this will quickly rise should he deliver on the south coast.

Everton also have favourable upcoming fixtures against Fulham (a), Bournemouth (h) and Burnley (h), so Dewsbury-Hall could be a really useful asset for those seeking to free up funds.

    Last decision on WC
    A: Wilson and Thiago
    B: Mbeumo and Manè

    A would mean benching both those in this gw and B would mean benching Mukiele and then playing Mbeumo.

      I wouldn’t bench Mukiele anyway Defcon monster and good chance of clean sheet against Burnley

      1. Steavn8k
        • 3 Years
        5 months, 1 day ago

        My thoughts aswell, but difficult to see other options. Think I'll stick with A anyways though. I'll loose 0.6 in team value selling Wilson and Thiago and might want both back soon.

    3. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      A

  2. leo_messi

    Sanchez
    Cash -Gabriel - Nunes
    Cherki - Mbeumo - Rice - Rogers - Saka
    Haaland - Joao Pedro

    Sub : Verbruggen (EVE) - Kroupi (wol) - Alderete (BUR) - Tarkowski (bha)

    Would you use BB this week or not ?

    Thank you

    1. Heiro
      • 16 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      Yep I would.

    2. joeynse99
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      Not sure Nunes starts and Pedro’s minutes will be limited I personally wouldn’t

    3. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      5 months, 1 day ago

      Yes

  3. joeynse99
    • 10 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    WC g2g?

    Sanchez
    Mukiele, Gabriel, Cash
    Enzo, Bruno (c), Cunha, Saka
    Haaland, Brobbey, Evanilson

    Subs : Dubravka, Gibbs-white, J. Hill, J. Andersen

    1. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      5 months, 1 day ago

      Not sold on Cunha. A plethora of other options who are probably better. Otherwise looks good

      1. joeynse99
        • 10 Years
        5 months, 1 day ago

        Cheers pal just fancy a low ownership differential in Cunha he’s scored me points off the bench last 2 weeks and he’s nailed now with Dorgu injury. We shall see

    2. Kingy109
      • 4 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      I personally wouldn't pick Gibbs White over say Rice, Rogers or Semenyo.
      Brobbey feels like a 1 week play
      If you fancy Forest how about Igor Jesus and a different midfielder to MGW?

      1. joeynse99
        • 10 Years
        5 months, 1 day ago

        Cheers for the advice mate will have a think

  4. Toplad
    • 8 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Which one shall I bench:

    A) Kroupe Jr
    B) Thiago
    C) Wilson

    Thanks in advance !

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years

      Don’t bench Wilson he on fire, was it G in last minutes of game from magic FK

    2. Mr Turnip 1

      B

    3. Ze_Austin

      Still Kroupi

    4. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      5 months, 1 day ago

      A

  5. Tinmen
    • 12 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Folks. Which is better?

    A) Dewsbury hall and Ekitike to
    Bruno and Kroupi -4

    B) Rogers to Cunha 1ft

    1. joeynse99
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      B

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      roll

    3. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      5 months, 1 day ago

      A

    4. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      A

    5. Tcheco
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      A if you really want to captain Bruno. Otherwise roll transfer

  6. Heiro
    • 16 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Bit of advice please.

    A: Gordon to Enzo
    B: Gordon to Rice (take Saka out later)
    C: Gordon / Van D Ven --> Hill / Mbuemo -4

    Would have to play Rodon or VDN otherwise

    1. joeynse99
      • 10 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      A all day long

    2. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      5 months, 1 day ago

      B quite tempting with the upcoming double and the more secure minutes

    3. Kingy109
      • 4 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      A. Plenty of time for a 3rd Arsenal.

  7. Donny_Rover
    • 10 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    To Palmer or not to Palmer? Really tempted as I could see him going bananas over the next few weeks. Have just enough £ but would be a -4 to bring him in this week. Would have to be for Cherki who could also do well or do absolutely nothing.

    Verbruggen (John)
    Nunes Gabriel Timber Tarkowski (Dorgu)
    Rice Enzo Bruno Cherki (Garner)
    Haaland JP (DCL)

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      I’m on that train, he’s one of few players we know is capable of huge numbers.
      Many can’t get to him without multiple moves.
      Manager said he wants to start & he will.

    2. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      Not much to suggest it’ll happen

  8. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    GTG?

    A bench order correct - drop defender & play Wilson

    B Cap Palmer, Bruno or Haaland

    Dubravka
    Chalobah Gabriel Muki Timber
    BrunoF Rogers Rice Palmer
    Haaland JPedro

    Kelleher HWilson DCL Guehi

    1.7

    1. Mr Turnip 1
      • 1 Year
      5 months, 1 day ago

      Looks perfect to me

      1. Mr Turnip 1
        • 1 Year
        5 months, 1 day ago

        Probably cap Bruno

        1. g40steve
          • 8 Years
          5 months, 1 day ago

          That’s plan, thinking Wilson over Timber is what’s bugging me

  9. Shteve
    • 16 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Raya
    Chalobah Konsa Alderete
    Saka Bruno Enzo Rogers
    Thiago Watkins Haaland
    (Dubrav, Andersen, Kayode, Potts)

    Worth a hit to do Kayode+Watkins -> Gabriel+Evanilson?

    Could get JP instead of Ev but not liking his chances to start this weekend.

  10. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Play one

    A. Mane vs BOU(H)
    B. Tarko vs BHA(A)

    1. Shteve
      • 16 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      A

  11. The Frenchie
    • 9 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Hi guys, is the wildcard worth it ? I have one FT and I think the priority is to replace Watkins if I'm not wildcarding.

    Current team
    Pickford (BHA A)
    Gabriel (LEE A) - Dalot (FUL H) - Van Hecke (EVE H)
    Saka (LEE A) - Rice (LEE A) - Bruno (FUL H) - Bruno G (LIV A)
    Haaland (TOT A) - Watkins (BRE H) - Thiago (AVL A)

    Dubravka - Guehi - Collins - Miley

    Wildcard team
    Sanchez (WHU H)
    Gabriel (LEE A) - Timber (LEE A) - Chalobah (WHU H)
    Rice (LEE A) - Bruno (FUL H) - Mbeumo (FUL H) - Rogers (BRE H) - Enzo (WHU H)
    Haaland (TOT A) - Evanilson (WOL A)

    Duravka - Dalot - Collins - Kroupi

    Cheers

    1. Shteve
      • 16 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      No

  12. BusbySwede
    • 8 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Raya, Dubravka
    Gabriel, Chalobah, Senesi, Van Hecke, Mukiele
    Bruno F, Mbuemo, Rogers, Enzo, Rice
    Haaland, Evanilson, Kroupi Jr

    Current WC-draft which feels quite template..
    Gtg or any suggestions on changes?
    Which 2 to bench beside Kroupi Jr? Right now im on Van Hecke and Senesi, but could also be Mukiele or maybe even Rice/Evanilson?

  13. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    So is Joao Pedro not worth getting due to rotation? Was planning to go Raul to Pedro. 1ft 1.0itb

    Pope
    O'Reilly Gabriel Mukiele
    Saka Rice Semenyo Bruno G
    Haaland Thiago Jimenez

    (Dubravka Xhaka VDV Truffert)

    a) Jimenez -> Pedro
    b) Jimenez -> Evanilson
    c) Bruno G -> Enzo
    d) Saka -> Bruno F

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      anyone?

    2. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      I wouldn’t worry about it

      1. how now brown cow
        • 11 Years
        5 months, 1 day ago

        as in just get him anyway?

  14. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    If you own Mukiele you should play him this weekend. He's a better bet than a lot of attackers... including players like Ekitike

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      I’m considering him over Timber (gab owner)

  15. Jstap94
    • 2 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Play VdV / Thiaw or take a hit for a defender for the next few GW? If so which one?

    1. GC123
      • 4 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      Probably VdV. At home and Spurs have a decent record v City. Likes a goal too. Not sure who your other defenders are but really only a Chelsea defender might justify a hit

      1. how now brown cow
        • 11 Years
        5 months, 1 day ago

        Spurs at home are awful. I sit through it every week.

        If you think he'll get a goal from a corner go VDV - otherwise steer clear.

        1. GC123
          • 4 Years
          5 months, 1 day ago

          Sorry for your loss lol

  16. The Pep Revolution
    • 14 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Not sure which five midfielders to go with.
    Which of these midfielders would you do without over the next few weeks?
    A. Fernandez
    B. Enzo
    C. Rogers
    D. Wilson
    E. Semenyo
    F. Rice

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      D. But I'm paying the price for constantly believing this.

      wilson

    4. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      Only Bruno Semenyo & Rice have more points per game than Wilson & he’s 3rd for current form 😉

    5. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 1 day ago

      I'm skipping Enzo for now, due to the seeming reliance on pens with Palmer looming

      Predicting Wilson's returns is impossible. I just play him. See who he's gotten returns against since GW10

  17. FPLMACKEM
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    5 months, 1 day ago

    Raya
    Virgil, Gabriel, Chalobah
    Enzo, Wilson, Bruno, Saka, Anderson
    Ekitike, Haaland (c)

    Dubravka, Andersen, Rodon, Guiu

    4ft 1.4 itb

    Would you make any transfers here or just roll?

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years

      looks good to roll

    2. THFC4LIFE

    Out of Kroupi or Mane for cheap striker, is Mane the better option considering he might get more minutes and potential double coming up?
