GK: Karl Darlow (Leeds)
- GW33 opponents: Wolves (H), Bournemouth (A)
Leeds United carry high clean sheet hopes across each of their fixtures against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Bournemouth, with Karl Darlow a popular choice among managers on Free Hit. He’s predicted to score 7.2 points, keeping two clean sheets in his last three games. Points in these fixtures could be enough to secure safety.
DEF: Marc Guehi (Man City)
- GW33 opponents: Arsenal (H), Burnley (A)
A knock to Nico O’Reilly has opened the door for Marc Guehi, who got himself on the scoresheet in the 3-0 win against Chelsea last time out. He’s started nine consecutive Premier League games since signing for Man City in the January transfer window, with four clean sheets in this period.
DEF: James Hill & Marcos Senesi (Bournemouth)
- GW33 opponents: Newcastle (A), Leeds (H)
Bournemouth defenders are popular picks for Free Hit squads, with defenders James Hill and Marcos Senesi in the frame. The higher-priced Senesi leads the defensive contributions metric among defenders, picking up the two point bonus in three of his last four appearances. Hill has managed the same feat in recent periods.
MID: Cole Palmer & Enzo Fernandez (Chelsea)
- GW33 opponents: Man Utd (H), Brighton (A)
Chelsea welcome back Enzo Fernandes for the double gameweek, with a natural midfield pairing alongside playmaker Cole Palmer. Palmer was a childhood Manchester United fan, giving him added motivation for this weekend’s fixture. He has the routes to points with set pieces, including penalties, notching 11 goal involvements this campaign.
MID: Antoine Semenyo (Man City)
- GW33 opponents: Arsenal (H), Burnley (A)
Antoine Semenyo is a must for those on Free Hit, as the most-owned midfielder in the game and the second-highest scoring in this position too. He has scored two goals in the last four gameweeks, taking him to 21 goal involvements for the campaign. He’s been an ever-present for Manchester City since signing from Bournemouth in January.
MID: Alex Scott (Bournemouth)
- GW33 opponents: Newcastle (A), Leeds (H)
Bournemouth’s Alex Scott scored the important winner in the Cherries 2-1 win against Arsenal last weekend, with plenty of eyes on him now for this pair of fixtures. He has three goals and two assists this season, hitting the two point defensive contribution bonus in seven of his last ten Premier League games.
FWD: Erling Haaland (Man City)
- GW33 opponents: Arsenal (H), Burnley (A)
Erling Haaland will be the overwhelming captain favourite given his pair of fixtures, with the pressure on as Thiago moved just one goal away from his tally of 22 this season. Haaland’s biggest haul of the season came in the reverse of the Burnley fixture, where he produced two goals and one assist. He also scored against Arsenal at the Emirates in Gameweek 5.
FWD: Joao Pedro (Chelsea)
- GW33 opponents: Man Utd (H), Brighton (A)
Chelsea’s Joao Pedro has a remarkable 14 goal involvements in 10 Premier League games since Liam Rosenior took charge. That takes him to 23 attacking returns for the campaign, second only to Erling Haaland. His recent hot streak is sustainable, where he is top for both shots (16) and big chances (8) over the last four gameweeks.
FWD: Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Leeds)
- GW33 opponents: Wolves (H), Bournemouth (A)
It’s impossible to ignore Leeds striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin for his pair of fixtures, but he remains a differential in just over 10% of squads. He has ten goals and two assists this season and was unlucky not to add to that tally in the 3-1 win against Man Utd on Monday night, where he had three big chances on goal.
