As we dive into the world of Fantasy Premier League (FPL), it’s essential to stay ahead of the curve with the latest FPL tips and tricks. With the new season in full swing, managers are eager to make informed decisions to climb the ranks. In this article, we’ll delve into the top picks for Gameweek 3, exploring the best options for your team.
FPL Team of the Week: Gameweek 3
With a £100m budget, we’ve assembled a team that’s poised to deliver impressive results. Our selection is based on current FPL prices, ensuring that you can replicate this team without breaking the bank. Let’s take a closer look at our top picks for Gameweek 3.
Goalkeeper: Mark Flekken (Brentford, £4.5m)
Mark Flekken is an excellent choice for Gameweek 3, facing a Southampton side that’s yet to score in the Premier League. The Dutch goalkeeper has already made 12 saves this season, accumulating four extra fantasy points. With a home game against the Saints, Flekken is well-positioned to keep a clean sheet and earn valuable points.
Defenders:
We’ve selected three defenders who offer a mix of clean sheet potential and attacking threat.
Levi Colwill (Chelsea, £4.5m) is a solid option at the heart of Chelsea’s defense. With Palace struggling to find their footing, Colwill is likely to keep a clean sheet and earn points.
Nikola Milenkovic (Nottingham Forest, £4.5m) is a towering presence in the Forest defense. After keeping a clean sheet on his debut, Milenkovic faces a Wolves side that was thrashed 6-2 by Chelsea. He’s a great option for Gameweek 3.
Jurrien Timber (Arsenal, £5.5m) is the cheapest way into the best defense in the game. With Brighton visiting the Emirates, Timber is likely to start and earn points.
Midfielders: The Creative Forces
Our midfield selection is packed with creative forces who can make a significant impact on the game.
Cole Palmer (Chelsea, £10.5m) – Captain for Gameweek 3
Cole Palmer is an exceptional talent who’s already making waves in the Premier League. With a goal and three assists against Wolves, Palmer is our captain for Gameweek 3. His home form last season was impressive, scoring 16 goals at a rate of one every 76 minutes.
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool, £12.5m) is a no-brainer for any FPL team. With 14 goals in 15 games against Manchester United, Salah is a must-have for Gameweek 3.
Bryan Mbuemo (Brentford, £7m) is a pre-season favorite who’s already delivered on the opening day. With a goal and two bonus points against Palace, Mbuemo is a major goal threat cutting in from the right flank.
Forwards: The Goal-Scoring Machines
Our forward selection is packed with goal-scoring machines who can make a significant impact on the game.
Erling Haaland (Manchester City, £15.1m)
Erling Haaland is in scintillating form, and it’s hard to leave him out of the team. Although he’s not our captain for Gameweek 3, Haaland is a must-have for any FPL team.
Chris Wood (Nottingham Forest, £6.1m) is a great option for Gameweek 3. With three shots in the box and two big chances against Southampton, Wood is poised to score against a Wolves side that’s shipped eight goals in two games.
There you have it – our top picks for Gameweek 3. With a mix of clean sheet potential, creative forces, and goal-scoring machines, this team is poised to deliver impressive results. Remember to stay ahead of the curve with the latest FPL tips and tricks to climb the ranks.
