Our Gameweek 2 differentials article puts the spotlight on three low-owned Fantasy Premier League (FPL) players.
This time, we’ve selected assets at Fulham, Liverpool and Coventry City, who we think have the potential to make an impact.
All three of these players have an ownership of 4% or lower.
GONZALO GARCIA
- FPL ownership: 3.6%
- Price: £6.0m
- GW2-6 fixtures: sun | CRY | liv | MUN | ips
For those Fantasy managers in search of a cheap forward, Gonzalo Garcia (£6.0m) could be the solution.
The 22-year-old, who arrived from Real Madrid this summer in a deal worth £34m, has started his Fulham career remarkably well, with two goals in his first two matches.
Playing the full 90 minutes, Garcia opened his account in Monday’s 3-2 defeat to Chelsea, with a close-range header in the second-half.
He was on the scoresheet in the midweek EFL Cup win over Wimbledon, too, with a composed finish after rounding the ‘keeper.
An effective focal point up top, Garcia has racked up six shots in that period.
“The defenders are allowed to make more contact with the strikers in the Premier League than in La Liga, but his strengths are running and protecting the ball – and, most importantly, he can score goals. I’m so happy for him. I know he will do many good things for us this season.”
“I’ve known him since he was 17. I know of his qualities, he’s powerful, strong, good with the ball and a goalscorer. I know what he’s capable of doing.” – Alvaro Arbeloa on Gonzalo Garcia
It is only two matches, but it’s a really encouraging start for Garcia, who could also be on penalties this season.
Up against a Sunderland side that has already conceded twice at newly-promoted Ipswich Town, he will be confident of getting amongst the goals again at the Stadium of Light.
The longer-term fixtures are pretty good, with Crystal Palace in Gameweek 3 and the three newly-promoted clubs in quick succession after the international break.
With a mere 3.6% ownership as we head into Friday’s deadline, Garcia is a real differential prospect.
MILOS KERKEZ
- FPL ownership: 3.5%
- Price: £5.5m
- GW2-6 fixtures: NFO | ips | FUL | bou | MCI
Milos Kerkez (£5.5m) could be an important source of creativity for Liverpool in Gameweek 2.
His raiding runs down the left flank certainly caught the eye against Newcastle United last week.
In that match, the former Bournemouth man could have walked away with assists for Florian Wirtz (£7.5m) and Alexander Isak (£9.0m).

As a result, we think Kerkez has the potential to thrive against Nottingham Forest, who looked shaky at the back last weekend.
This also holds true for Liverpool, of course. However, from a defensive perspective, the Reds have the third-best clean sheet odds in Gameweek 2.
Forest come to Anfield on Saturday lunchtime, before Andoni Iraola takes his side to Ipswich Town. Beyond that, appealing encounters with Fulham and Bournemouth follow, so there is a nice four-match run to target.
It suggests Kerkez might be worth a punt, with his ownership currently sitting at a low 3.5%.
“The gaffer likes to play more with the full-backs down the line, underlapping, overlapping. It worked well for me at Bournemouth, so I think it will also work well for me here.
“He showed me that when you do your job, then you are free to do what you want, so I felt really free with him. He lets you be more free to do your stuff.” – Milos Kerkez on Andoni Iraola
LOUM TCHAOUNA
- FPL ownership: 0.2%
- Price: £5.5m
- GW2-6 fixtures: HUL | mci | BHA | nfo | NEW
It would be unfair to judge Coventry City based on their opening away match at Arsenal.
However, Loum Tchaouna (£5.5m) did at least provide some threat for the Sky Blues in north London.
The ex-Burnley winger, who both scored and assisted in his final four matches of 2025/26, had two attempts on goal, the most of any Coventry player, fizzing an early effort narrowly over the bar.
As Coventry’s most advanced player, Tchaouna’s right-sided partnership with Milan van Ewijk (£4.0m) will surely be a key weapon in the upcoming match against Hull City.
Remember, Frank Lampard’s men finished 22 points above Hull in last season’s Championship, winning the title with 95 points.
And based on last weekend’s evidence, the Tigers could perhaps find it more difficult to defend that side of the pitch.

Priced at only £5.5m, Tchaouna could subsequently profit.
New arrival Taiwo Awoniyi (£5.5m) adds firepower at Coventry, so there’s certainly greater confidence in their attack.
And given their ability to go from back to front quickly, Tchaouna is a differential prospect who could even cause problems for the top teams in the division, with his ownership a mere 0.2%.
