FPL Gameweek 6 Best Budget Gems

Here we take a look at the FPL Gameweek 6 best budget gems. Using the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area and its fantastic tools we can compare the cheaper assets and pick the best of them for the new round.

The following FPL Gameweek 6 best budget gems can be extremely helpful for managers. Cheap players are vital towards fitting in the more expensive players, those expensive players tend to be the most reliable and consistent.

Aston Villa

Aston Villa have seemingly bounced back from their recent loss against Arsenal. Since that loss they have managed four consecutive wins, two clean sheets and an average of 2-3 goals scored per game.

In top form Aston Villa could have potential at both ends of the pitch. This is reinforced by their upcoming fixture with newly promoted Ipswich who are producing poor defensive and offensive data.

Aston Villa have several options at the back for those seeking a defender. The standout pick could well be Ezri Konsa (£4.5m). Konsa goes into the next match off the back of scoring in Gameweek 5. An alternative could be full-back Lucas Digne (£4.6m), as well as starting every game for his side so far he also registered back-to-back assists in Gameweek 3 and 4.

Helping lead a frontline that has managed the joint most big chances so far is Morgan Rogers (£5.2m). Although failing to pick up a return in his first four matches Rogers collected a brace of assists in his most recent match against Wolves.

Nottingham Forest

Another side hoping to carry on their early season form is Nottingham Forest. Unbeaten in the league so far the Reds have won two and drawn three of their first five matches. As well as securing two clean sheets during that time they also found the net in each of their games.

Fulham could be stiff opposition but dropping points in three of the first five games and conceding in every single one of them suggests the Nottingham Forest assets have potential at both ends of the pitch.

Maintaining some elite defensive data recently Nottingham Forest will fancy themselves at home. For those looking to invest in their defence then Murillo (£4.5m) could be the safest in terms of minutes. However, its centre-back Nikola Milenkovic (£4.5m) who makes his way into the top 10 ranked defenders for non-penalty expected goal involvement.

The Nottingham Forest attack has plenty of attacking threat, with penalty taker and in-from striker Chris Wood (£6.1m) spearheading the frontline. A cheaper route into the attack could well be Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.4m) who has created a goal contribution in each of his last two games.

More Great Budget Picks

As highlighted above Fulham are not a team to underestimate. The Cottagers have scored in all but one of their games so far and so it could be worth buying into their frontline. The standout in midfield is the in-form Emile Smith Rowe (£5.8m) who has returned in three of his five games this season. A cheaper option could well be fellow midfielder Adama Traore (£5.1m). Traore sits second best in his position for expected assists and has matched Smith Rowe when it comes to goal contributions.

Another budget midfielder who will no doubt catch the attention of the FPL community this week is Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo (£5.6m). Semenyo has a lovely fixture against poor newly promoted side Southampton next in which he could add to his four three goal contributions managed already this season.
