Fantasy Premier League: Predicted Player Points for Gameweek 22

The new round of fantasy football is approaching so we take a look at the predicted player points for Gameweek 22. With the help of the Fantasy Football Scout members area we can pick out assets with the most potential for the fixtures ahead.

As we approach the new round fantasy managers are looking for the best players to include in their squads. Because of this looking at the predicted player points for Gameweek 22 can help bring clarity to some of your decisions.

The Top Five

Three teams dominate the top five predicted player points for Gameweek 22. Those teams include Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal.

Sitting atop of the pile is Manchester City’ Kevin De Bruyne (£10.5m) with 6.26 points. The Belgian midfielder marked his return from injury with a cool 12 points against Newcastle in Gameweek 21. Burnley remain a team to target which makes Kevin De Bruyne even more appealing.

Second on the list is midfielder Diogo Jota (£7.9m). Jota goes into the new round off the back of a 19-point return. He does however face Chelsea next so it could come as a surprise he sits with 5.65 points.

Sitting third is the recently injured Erling Haaland (£13.9m). The Norwegian has been out of action of some time due to injury. However, he is currently in training and looks set for 5.55 points this week. Joining him is teammate and midfielder Phil Foden (£8m) with 5.44 points.

Completing the top five is Arsenal man Bukayo Saka (£9.1m). He faces a poor Nottingham Forest side next up and is predicted to bag 5.26 points.

Who else joins the Top 10?

The remainder of the top 10 offers more of a mix in terms of teams.

Ranking sixth is Crystal Palace talisman Eberechi Eze (£6m) with 5.22 points. The set piece specialist and penalty taking midfielder has a fantastic opportunity this week against Sheffield United, one of, if not the worst defences in the league.

Jarrod Bowen (£8.1m) looks set to get back amongst the returns this week with 4.99 points. The West Ham midfielder plays against a Bournemouth side next who rank in the worst three teams for goals conceded this season so far. He is closely followed by Martin Ødegaard (£8.5m) with 4.96 points. Odegaard will be chasing his first return in four matches against Nottingham Forest from midfield.

The bottom two players include Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez (£7.4m) with 4.84 points and Tottenham midfielder Richarlison (£7m) with 4.76 points who faces Brentford up next.
