?As discovered by @FPLMax22 (below) you can avoid a ‘red’ fixture all season by rotating! ?
?Both are bps magnets so expect bonus when they keep a cleanie! ?

Sterling
Sterling looks an essential selection for those managers on a wildcard this week. His record is impeccable against weak opposition who he will come up against in his next run of games.Half of Raheem Sterling's FPL returns last season (16/32) came in meetings with seven of his next nine opponents (Villa and Norwich were in the Championship).

City
FPL Prince has been mightily impressed with the way Manchester City have started the season. A double up on KDB and Sterling could prove fruitful for FPL managers.Man City’s next 4 fixtures ?

1. Bournemouth (A)
2. Brighton (H)
