As the second half of the season is starting this new year, it could be your chance to have a fresh start, by racking up the green arrows and jumping up in ranks ☝️. We have picked out 5 players to watch out for who could help you climb up in your leagues. So check out our FPL GW 23 tips for who could you haul points this week and get them in your team.
FPL GW 23 Defenders:
Lewis Dunk vs Aston Villa (H) 4.8 Mil, TSB:14.4%
Seagulls captain is having another fine season in both ends of the pitch. Dunk has already scored twice and added three assists so far this season, which is two more than the three attacking contributions he managed last season. Brighton face a struggling Aston villa who have been hampered by injuries and have one of the worst away records this season, having failed to score in two of the last three away fixtures. Notably, villa are also without a notable striker after an injury to their Brazilian forward Wesley.
Dunk is currently the 10th highest scoring defender this season and his total of 17 shots ranks sixth among defenders this season. There’s no surprise that dunk is a greater aerial threat having managed to pull 11 headed shots on goal bettered only by two defenders this season. Aston Villa, meanwhile, have conceded 66 headed shots so far this season. and only Newcastle have fared worse.
Lucas Digne vs West Ham 5.7 MIL; TSB:12.4%
Everton have turned their season around following the arrival of Carlo Ancelloti. Everton’s full-backs have been playing higher up the pitch, putting in crosses and creating a lot of chances making them valuable FPL assets ahead of FPL GW 23 deadline.
The toffies have registered 3️CS in the last 5️games, Everton are also having favorable fixtures over the next four weeks with only one fixture having a fixture difficulty of 2️+
Digne looks a good option based on stats, but do not sleep on Sidibe as well the french Right-back has also been playing high up the pitch and attacking returns are definitely around the corner!
FPL GW 23 MIDFIELDERS DIFERNETIAL PICKS
Leonard Trossard vs Aston Villa(H) 5.8 Mil; TSB:0.4%
Although Leonard Trossard has not been able to replicate the success of his fellow Belgian counterpart Kevin de Bryne. Trossard is having a good start to his Premier League career having managed to score twice and assist a further five more goals and was really unlucky not to score against Everton in GW22 having hit the post following a sensational solo effort.
Having started the last three matches, Graham potter is expected to field the Belgian winger against a struggling Aston villa defense.
Owned by just 0.4% FPL managers Trossard is an ultra differential option that you could consider bringing in ahead of FPL GW23 deadline.
Todd Cantwell vs Bournemouth (H) 4.9 MIL; TSB:24.3%
Owned by nearly one-fourth of FPL managers, Cantwell might not be a differential pick based on ownership, But then loads of managers including me who own him tend to bench him missing out on his returns. The Norwich midfielder has been in good form of late and has three attacking returns in the last five home games making him a must-start player as Norwich are playing home against a struggling Bournemouth side who looked dommed.
Todd Cantwell has managed to register four double-digit returns this season, that is something remarkable for a 4.5 Mil midfielder. To put things into perspective, last week hattrick hero Aguero has managed 2 double-digit returns so far this season.
FPL GW 23 FORWARDS:
Alexander Lacazzette vs Sheffield United (H) 9.3 Mil; TSB: 2%
Although the french forward is having an average season so far with just 5 goals to his name. But Lacazette could very well prove to be a very good option to consider with fellow striker Aubameyang being suspended for three games following a red card against Crystal Palace in GW22.
Alexandre Lacazette for Arsenal v Crystal Palace:
1️- assist
2️- most shots
2️- most shots on target
2️- most key passes
3️- most tackles
Lacazette assisted the opener against crystal palace and is all set to start alone upfront meaning more attacking returns. Owned by just 2% of managers lacazette could be a very good differential option to consider in FPL GW 23. Will he be the hatrick hero like Aguero last week?
