Four fantastic Fantasy Premier League team tips as the new season approaches

The Belgium centre back was a rock for Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs side last term, as they endeavoured to chase down Leicester City. Alderweireld hardly missed a match and was a vital part of the league’s best defence, registering 13 clean sheets.

On top of this, the White Hart Lane defender proved lucrative at the other end of the pitch, netting four goals and assisting the same amount – the solid centre back is 13/2 to finish the season as the top scoring defender.

Midfielder: Henrikh Mkhitaryan (Manchester United)

Armenia international Mkhitaryan scored 23 goals from midfield last term and recorded an incredible 32 assists in all competitions – 20 of which came in the Bundesliga.

Mkhitaryan is an attacking force and, with the supreme talents of Anthony Martial and Zlatan Ibrahimovic surrounding him, is certain to rack up the fantasy points. The new Red Devil is a terrific 12/1 to be the top scoring midfielder this season, but with his sensational combination of scoring and creativity, why not take a 22/1 punt on him becoming the top scoring fantasy league player.

Forward: Sergio Aguero (Manchester City)

Argentina forward Aguero finished last season as the second-highest scorer in the Premier League, with the best minutes to goal ratio, at 99 minutes, in the division.

Aguero is a truly lethal number nine and the only factor fantasy league players need to bare in mind, is his injury record – so be ready to switch him out of your selection regularly. However, when he is fit, he tots up the points and is 3/1 to be the top scoring fantasy league forward.
