FPL gameweek 28 Tip: Captain Bruno Fernandes, pick Nico O’Reilly and Hugo Equitiki

Caoimhin Kelleher, Brentford-Goalkeeper, £4.7 million. Burnley (a)

Brentford’s defense is worth investing in as they enter an impressive run of games, including Wolves and Everton at home.

Burnley scored less than a goal per match at home.

virgil van Dijk, Liverpool£6 million – West Ham (h)

The Dutchman has picked up 28 points in his last two games, much to the chagrin of any Premier League manager who sold him to Gabriel ahead of Arsenal’s double.

Like Brentford, Liverpool also have an impressive run of games and an empty Week 31 game, so, even if you miss out on their recent points, a move for Van Dijk still makes sense.

james hill, Bournemouth£4.1 million – Sunderland (h)

Also in the squad this week is ‘Budget Van Dijk’ Hill, who returned for his fifth straight appearance last week.

He has a good looking outfit, usually gets defensive contribution points, and is as cheap as they come. Record it.

In addition, Sunderland have scored just six goals away from home this season.

diogo dalot, Manchester United£4.5 million – Crystal Palace (h)

Dalot is worth watching because he has carried the kind of threat in his last few games that doesn’t show up in the basic data.

Dalot had 12 points three games ago and finds himself in some great attacking positions at times without providing the final pass.

In five matches, he created five chances and two big chances.

United’s right-back position has been locked down, so he offers security and upside at a good price.

nico orelli, Manchester City£5 million – Leeds (a)

Since Pep Guardiola shifted Nico O’Reilly to midfield four games ago, only Haaland and Antoine Simenho have had more shots and big chances for City.

It all came to a head with his two-goal performance against Newcastle last week.

He doesn’t really rack up defensive contribution points in this role, as you might expect, but £5m for an OOP (out of position) defender with a goal threat is great value.

Just keep an eye on City’s Week 31 fixtures, which are currently empty, and make sure you have a plan.
