Must-Have FPL Picks

Arsenal’s home fixture against Hull City stands out as one of the most attractive opportunities of the round. The Gunners have been among the strongest defensive sides this season, making Gabriel (£8.0m) an appealing option for managers looking to strengthen their defence.

Martin Odegaard (£6.7m) is another Arsenal player worth considering, particularly after being rested in the midweek fixture, coming on as a substitute in the 78th minute. However, managers should monitor Rice’s availability and the possibility of further rotation following the Champions League fixture.

Manchester City’s trip to Nottingham Forest is another fixture worth targeting. Erling Haaland (£15.8m) remains one of the strongest attacking options, having scored in the Champions League against RB Leipzig. Jeremy Doku (£7.5m) is another option for managers looking for a cheaper route into Man City’s attack.

Liverpool’s trip to Crystal Palace could also provide opportunities. Alexander Isak (£9.2m) scored in midweek and is worth considering, particularly with Palace having struggled defensively in recent weeks.

With Sunderland struggling near the bottom of the table, Chelsea’s attacking options could prove particularly attractive, especially coming off a win against Manchester United last weekend. Cole Palmer (£9.8m), Morgan Rogers (£8.2m), Pedro Neto (£6.6m) and Estevao (£6.3m) are all worth considering.

Everton’s home fixture against Coventry City also deserves attention. Thierno Barry (£5.6m) has been among the more promising FPL Gameweek 10 budget forward options, while Bournemouth’s Evanilson (£6.4m) is another player to consider ahead of their trip to Ipswich.

For FPL Gameweek 10, prioritise players with favourable fixtures and secure starting places, particularly with several teams returning from European action.

FPL Gameweek 10 Captaincy Picks

Erling Haaland remains a strong captaincy option despite Manchester City’s away fixture against Nottingham Forest. However, Arsenal’s Gabriel and Chelsea’s Morgan Rogers could offer alternatives, with the Gunners welcoming Hull City to the Emirates Stadium.

– Erling Haaland – (Nott’m Forest vs Man City)
– Gabriel – (Arsenal vs Hull City)
– Martin Odegaard – (Arsenal vs Hull City)
– Morgan Rogers – (Sunderland vs Chelsea)
– Cole Palmer – (Sunderland vs Chelsea)
– Alexander Isak – (Palace vs Liverpool)
