Here they focus on the form of Ollie Watkins ahead of our upcoming fixtures…
Aston Villa’s current position in the Champions League spots has put their assets firmly on the radar of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers.
For example, Ollie Watkins (£8.8m) has more attacking returns than any other player so far. His 25 are now three ahead of second-placed Mohamed Salah (£13.0m).
These have come from 11 goals and 14 assists, equating to 146 FPL points – the second-most throughout the game.
This means the forward is currently averaging 6.3 points per league start.
Over these 23 Gameweeks, Watkins has had 68 attempts on goal. Only Darwin Nunez (£7.4m) betters this across the entire game with 73 shots.
Additionally, frontman Watkins has set up 34 efforts for his Villa teammates, which just one FPL forward has been able to exceed. His eight big chances created is also a team-leading tally alongside midfielders Douglas Luiz (£5.6m) and Moussa Diaby (£6.5m).
