Wolves and United double-ups in our Gameweek 31+ Scout Picks selection

Wolves and Manchester United are set for an appealing Gameweek 31+ according to our latest Scout Picks selection.

We have chosen two assets from both clubs for the midweek round of action, as well as a double-up from Liverpool.

Our best XI for the Gameweek was chosen by the editorial team of David, Neale, Paul and Geoff, and came in £0.1m under our budget of £85.0m.

Goalkeeper

Nick Pope (£4.9m) may have conceded five at Manchester City on Monday evening, but the Burnley defence is a completely different animal at Turf Moor. They have kept the joint-highest number of clean sheets in home matches this season (seven) and face a Watford side with just two goals in their last four away trips.

Defenders

Man United defence boosted by Bailly's excellent return

Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.8m) looks like the obvious best option to consider from Liverpool ahead of Crystal Palace’s trip to Anfield. The Eagles remain one of the most goal-shy in the division, Norwich (25) the only team to have scored fewer goals than them this season – while Alexander-Arnold has produced a return (either offensive or defensive) in five of his last six at home.

Harry Maguire (£5.3m) may have been at fault when Manchester United conceded against Spurs in Double Gameweek 30+ but he could prove the hero when Sheffield United come to Old Trafford midweek. The Blades are yet to score since the Premier League restarted and will be susceptible in the air without John Egan and potentially Jack O’Connell too. Maguire has more headed attempts than any of his defensive colleagues so could exploit their atypical lack of height.

Matt Doherty (£6.4m) has been in scintillating form of late and looks set for another potentially explosive score in Gameweek 31+. Wolves have been one of the best defensive sides in the league since Willy Boly returned from injury, while Bournemouth offered nothing in attack against Palace. Meanwhile, Doherty has more shots in the box than any defender over their last five matches and has averaged 8.7 points per match over his last six.

Jamaal Lascelles (£4.3m) offers great value for Gameweek 31+ as Aston Villa come to St. James Park. Like Burnley, Newcastle are joint-top for home clean sheets this season (seven) while Villa’s recent defensive improvements appear to have tempered their attacking threat since the Premier League’s restart.

Midfielders

Sadio Mané (£12.5m) may have struggled against Everton but he remains a more reliable bet at Anfield. Since his return from injury in Gameweek 26, the Senegalese international scored 21 points across two home matches.

After a Monday-night rest, Kevin De Bruyne (£10.6m) looks more than capable of continuing his incredible 2019/20 form into a midweek meeting with former club Chelsea. He has more attacking returns against last season’s top-six than any other FPL midfielder thus far, producing four goals and four assists against such opposition, finding the net the last time he faced Chelsea.

Son Heung-min (£9.7m) has scored 73 points since Jose Mourinho took over at Spurs, more than any of his colleagues, averaging at an impressive 6.1 per game. That makes him an important asset for the Tuesday-night meeting with West Ham. David Moyes men have kept just one clean sheet since Gameweek 21, conceding at least twice in six of their last eight.

Bruno Fernandes (£8.7m) looks the most likely to benefit from Sheffield United’s defensive absentees in Gameweek 31+, which also includes Dean Henderson missing out as an ineligible player. The Portuguese international has been involved in six of the nine goals Manchester United have scored since his Gameweek 25 debut and also appears first in line to take penalties.

Forwards

Bournemouth’s defence has conceded at least twice in five of their last six and with just one clean sheet on the road since Gameweek 11. That bodes well for Raúl Jiménez (£8.2m), who has been the right kind of consistent in recent times. The Mexican’s goal at West Ham was his third in the last four Gameweeks, and sixth in the last eight.

Norwich have conceded more shots in the box than any other team over their last four matches, opening the door for Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£6.5m) to continue his excellent form. Only one player has registered more shots in the box than him over his last four matches, the Everton forward also ranking joint-fourth in the Premier League for shots on target in that time.

Substitutes

Martin Dúbravka (£5.1m) is an alternative route into the Newcastle defence, for those without the space in defence. He has made more saves than any other goalkeeper this season.

Those with enough spare funds, unlike us in this case, could consider upgrading Lascelles to Federico Fernandez (£4.6m), the former Swansea man besting his captain for shots in the box this season.

While Newcastle’s defence looks strong and Aston Villa’s attack lacking a little clinical edge, the prospect of an out-of-position midfielder playing up-front for Keinan Davis‘ (£4.3m) price is hard to turn down, especially for those on a Wildcard.

If he can get a full 90-minute outing under his belt, Diogo Jota (£6.4m) could match or outscore Jiménez in Gameweek 31+. Over the last four matches, he has recorded better scores than his colleague for minutes per shot in the box, minutes per big chance and minutes per shot on target.

THE CAPTAIN

The Scout Picks has a captain for the 2019/20 campaign.
This skipper is chosen using the conclusions of the latest Captain Sensible article and a four-way vote between David, Neale, Paul and Geoff.

Because the use of Fantasy Football Scout data is used so heavily in this process, the captain we choose each Gameweek is usually known only to those who have signed up to Membership for the 2019/20 season and revealed to the public only when the deadline has passed.

    Worked on the last article so I'll try it here

    Reply your questions and I'll have them answered before the deadline, that way you get at least one answer 🙂

        See if Leicester team is leaked early. I think I'd have Barnes +4, even though he ain't all that IMO.

        2. My heart goes Salalalalah
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Might consider Allison and Martial -> Pope and Son

            • 13 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

    14. Rains of Castamere

      De Gea
      Trent - Doherty - ????
      Mane - Bruno - Son - Richarlison
      DCL - Jimenez - Rashford

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Ritchie or Aurier, latter prob more safe

    15. Jimbo-Jones
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Mane or Salah?!

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Salah

    16. Bambi
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Maguire or Wan B? Wan B better for bonus when Utd keep a cleanie but Maguire looks more likely to score

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Maguire

        Surely one of Bruno's set pieces will land on his slabhead

    17. M00N
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Corrie or Emmerdale

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Neither, I find soaps depressing

    18. AJ24
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      A) Robinsion, Saka (Both bench) & Saiss
      B) Taylor, Guendouzi (both bench) & Boly

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        A

        I think Saka will be decent option off the bench

    19. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      A) Aurier - the flair pick
      or
      B) Saiss- mr. Reliable, but double-up with Doherty

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Aurier

        1. Pompel

    21. Licious Lizard
      • 11 Years

      Thanks! On WC;

      A: Rashford + Richarlison

        Nketiah

    23. Thomas M.
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Worth a doubleup on TAA and Robbo on FH this week or downgrade Robbo to VVD/Aurier and upgrade Maximin?

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        TAA Robbo ASM looks sound

    24. The Hobbit
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      8.3 to spend on a midfielder (on FH, so for this GW only), trying to choose from:

      Martial
      Alli
      Pogba (punt but fun)
      Richarlison

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Pogba

    25. Johnny 8
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Any reason you're recommending Salah over Fernandes as captain? Palace have been very tight at the back over the past few gamesweeks.

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I agree with you

        Salah chasing his 3rd golden boot though and there's very few greedier players

        Decent differential captain by the looks of it

    26. Teahupo'o
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Greetings Berbinho 🙂

      Sarr ➡ Bergwijn worth a hit?

      Pope

      Salah Mane Bruno Sarr
      Rashford Jimenez Ings

        1. Teahupo'o
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Thanks. 0.8 short of it being Son. Which would make it more tempting.

          Thanks very much Mr Forehead!
          I meant to include Mane in captain decision... would you still go for Fernandes though?

      Taa, Doh, Ritchie (Kiko, 3.9)
      Mane, Kdb, Son, Bruno, Martial
      Jimi, DCL (Nketiah)

      Can do Nketiah to Connolly and upgrade kiko to holgate/Lascelles etc

      What do u think ?

        great

    31. MITHRRANDIRR
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Are you buying into Ritchie hype? Newcastle have fourth-worst xG against and are hardly an attacking team.

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        hes oop and on set pieces and have three great fixtures up next

        it is a punt but im going for it

      2. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        very tempted but risky

    32. ebb2sparky
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Current bench is Saka, Lundstram and 3.9 defensive fodder. On a WC with 0.2 in bank, do I:
      A) keep .2 ITB for next game week
      B) get a 4.0 or 4.1 playing defender (if one exists)
      C) sell Lundstram and spend up to 4.6 on a replacement (maybe saiss although already have boly)

      1. goriuanx

      Aguero to Vardy, Dcl or Rashford for free

      or

      Aguero and Grealish to one of the above and Bruno for a -4?

      thanks

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years

        Take the hit

        Bruno and Rash

      Soyuncu or Aurier?

        Aurier

    36. Tmel

      Best defender to complete this?

      Martinez 3.9
      TAA Doherty Saiss Lascelles X

      a) Holgate
      b) Kiko
      c) Lowton

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Holgate

    37. The Rock
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      What are your thoughts on a single striker for rest of season?

      Is Ritchie nailed on to start every game? And nailed on for pens?

      Is Foden too much of a risk with a bench like mine? I'm on a WC btw.

      Patricio
      TAA, Maguire, Doherty, Aurier, Ritchie
      Mane, Bruno, KDB, Son
      Jimenez
      Button, Greenwood, Foden, Connolly

      I expect Foden and Greenwood to see minutes in basically all remaining matches should they be needed.

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I think one striker is too risky given the options in Rash Jimmy DCL etc

        Ritchie not nailed but on pens

        Foden a good pick imo,keep

        1. The Rock

      I am on a wildcard with no funds left (those with * are newly transferred in). Anything I am missing anything obvious?

      Pope*
      TAA Doherty* Aurier*
      Fernandes* Cantwell Son* KDB Salah*
      DCL* Jimenez

      Bench: Button* Nketiah* Lascelles* Fermenia*

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I'd swap Pope and Cantwell to Martinez and Foden

        Rest is fine

    39. Sam1878

          • 13 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Cheers, in that case, what would you say for this week:

          A) Holgate vs Norwich away
          Or
          B) Lascelles vs Villa home

          1. goriuanx

      What are you thoughts on Pogba (C) if you're looking to gamble a bit?
      Do you reckon he'll start?

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Great punt. I have him but won't captain

    41. Tmel
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Thanks, Berbinho! Last one:

      Better option to play every week?

      a) Martinez, Son, Greenwood/Lascelles/Holgate
      b) DDG, Sarr, DCL

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years

        A with Lascelles

      On a wildcard and ahead in all my leagues so not in need of differential captain... so who to captain: Bruno or Salah?

      Pope*
      TAA Doherty* Aurier*
      Bruno* Cantwell Son* KDB Salah*
      DCL* Jimenez

      1. goriuanx

        Salah

  2. theroadrunner
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Couple questions:

    Is Justin nailed on?
    Go for Foster+Aurier/Soyuncu or Lloris+ Justin (Have Son)?
    Salah vs Mane

    1. Begbie.
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      1. Yes
      2. Foster + Aurier
      3. Salah

  3. rkpower1

    On a WC looking for a budget GK and last Def - who would you pick:

    A) Martinez + CTaylor
    B) McCarthy + Jack Robinson

    1. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      A

    2. Andre_The_Giant

      I’ve gone Martínez

  4. FPL Diet
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    RMT please, on Wildcard...

    Martínez
    TAA, Doherty, Saiss
    KDB, Salah, Fernandes, Martial
    DCL, Rashford, Jiminez

    Martin, Davis, Lascelles, Kiko

    £0.2m in the bank - lock it in???

    3. Pickle juice

      no spurs attack ? with their run of games

  5. Tmel
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Better WC option?

    1) 'The Son':
    Martinez 3.9
    TAA Doherty Saiss Lascelles Holgate
    Salah KDB Bruno Son 4.2
    Rashford Jimi Greenwood

    2) 'The Sarr' (0.7ITB for upgrades)
    Martinez 3.9
    TAA Doherty Saiss Lascelles Holgate
    Salah KDB Bruno Son Saka
    Rashford Jimi DCL

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      The Son

      Lowton over Holgate. Lets you get Davis at 4.3 or Nketiah at 4.4

  6. Sgt Frank Drebin
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Last draft. Thoughts?

    McCarthy
    TAA - Doherty - Saiss
    Salah - KDB - Son - Martial
    Rashford - Jimenez - DCL

    Martin - Holgate - Guendouzi - Masuaku

    1. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      V. Similar, see above

    2. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Can you squeeze funds to upgrade Masuaku ? Only to a £4.2m/£4.3m

    3. Releasebreaks
      • 6 Years

      No Bruno ?

  7. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    How's she looking? 0.2itb. On FH

    Allison
    TAA Doherty Saiss
    Martial Salah Bruno(C) KdB
    DCL Kimenez Rashford
    3.9 Lascelles Guendouzi 3.9

    1. Begbie.
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Nice but don't like the captain pick. Rashford is on the next penalty and IMO Salah is the much better option.

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      You happy with Saiss over Lascelles for your first 11? I’ve got same decision (and also own Doherty)

    3. Denis Tueart on the wing
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I am FH as well and decided to ditch KDB for Son and done Vardy instead of DCL.
      With Bruno and Rashford, I have gone AWB for hopefully a 6pts+

  8. Muscout
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    McCarthy
    TAA, Ritchie, Lascelles
    Salah (c), KDB, Son, Fernandes

    Martin, Saka, Holgate, Jack Robinson

    0.2 itb, trying to fit in Doherty, what would you do?

    1. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      McCarthy to Martínez?

  9. Salah_Fingers
    • 9 Years

    GTG? WC 0ITB

    DDG

    TAA - Doherty - Lascelles

    KDB - Mane - Son - Fernandes

    DCL - Jimi - Rashford

    (Button - Guendouzi - Holgate - Robertson)

    1. LeicesterA
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Perfect. Wish I could afford that.

      1. Salah_Fingers
        • 9 Years

        Thank you, I've since changed to Patricio and Salah instead of DDG and Mane

  14. HD7

    Captain? Bruno, Salah or other idea?
    Right order of starters and bench?

    De Gea,
    TAA, Doherty, Fernandez
    Salah, Bruno, KDB, Son,
    Rash, Jimi, DCL

    Button, Taylor, Hayden, Robinson

  15. corderz

    Anyone going Jota over Jimenez?

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I’d debate alongside but definitely not over.

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Me.

  16. Miguel Sanchez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Too risky with Alonso this week on bench boost or should I swap?

    A) keep Alonso (MCI)
    B) swap to Aurier (WHU)
    C) swap to Azpi (MCI)
    D) other - have TAA, Doherty and Maguire

  17. Rainer
    • 7 Years

    Scout Picks curse imminent 🙁

  18. Bubz
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Those picking Rashford over Martial, can you explain your reasoning?

    Martial .9 cheaper, extra point per goal, point for clean sheet, playing through the middle + Rashford coming back from long lay off?

    1. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      For me it’s primarily due to watching the spurs game. Martial does nothing for huge periods in games

    2. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Rashford is Ole's boy

      Absolutely nailed
      On shared pens
      Shoots way more (eye test)
      Ighalo and GW eat into Martial gametime
      Martial not trustworthy in terms of random injuries

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        What do you reckon below to this sort of dilemma Berb?

    3. StoichkovFPL
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Answer is simple - Rashford is better player than Martial

    4. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Having this Dilemma below mate. Martial seems to be very injury prone. And Rashford’s form before the injury I guess. Rashford also possibly on Pens. And if he explodes will be harder to fit in

    5. james 101
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      I’m going with both

    6. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Both

    7. Releasebreaks
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Rashford 100% nailed, plus can take penalties, is worth the .9

  19. StoichkovFPL
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    9/11 scout picks here 🙂
    (Salah and Rash instead Maguire and Mane)

  20. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Final WC dilemma, have been on A but toying now. Best pick?
    A. McCarthy+Rashford+Guendo (3-4-3)
    B. Patricio+Martial+Greenwood (3-5-2)

    1. StoichkovFPL
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      B

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        You’ve just said Rashford above 🙂 or is it the keepers that really persuade you?

        1. StoichkovFPL
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          keeper makes a big change here otherwise I would say Rash.

          1. RAFA THE GAFFA
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Hmm, torn 🙁 as I don’t really like owning Martial haha.

    Saka and DCL or Mount and Nketiah?

    1. Sj3451

      A

    2. Releasebreaks

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Great - except don’t understand Lund, he is done as a pick.

      Does Lund -> 3.9, Saka -> Guendouzi free up enough cash for Boly -> Doherty?

      1. Sj3451

    Would you prefer Matt Ritchie or Traore for the upcoming few games? Both with good fixtures.

    Ritchie seems to have more avenues to score points and is on penalties, but Traore seems more popular

  25. corderz
