In: Roberto Firmino (Liverpool) – £9.3m

Every man and his dog will have Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah this week so to change it up we recommend taking a risk on Firmino. We say risk purely because he isn’t as prolific but he can still do the business, as he did against Spurs on Sunday.
In: Jamie Vardy (Leicester City) – £5.7m

Huddersfield’s horror season has another six games to go and the ex-England striker could pile on the misery this week, just seven days after their relegation. He’s a candidate for captaincy too.
In: Youri Tielemans (Leicester City) – £6.1m
9
A fine January loan signing, the Belgian is doing the business with one goal and four assists in eight games. The Foxes must do everything in their power to keep him for next year.
In: Joshua King (Bournemouth) – £6.5m
9
Like Firmino, if you’re looking for a player others haven’t picked up, King is your man. He got two goals two weeks ago against Newcastle and could pick up another strike or two with Burnley up next on Saturday.
In: Salomon Rondon (Newcastle) – £5.9m

Finally in the form many felt he would find at St James’ Park, he’s got two goals and one assist in his last three matches and you wouldn’t put it past him improving this against Crystal Palace, who looked weak against Tottenham.
In: Patrick van Aanholt (Crystal Palace) – £5.5m
9
The Dutchman showed hasn’t made as many goal contributions as he would have liked this season but he looked willing to canter forward against Tottenham and might have better luck this weekend with a trip to Newcastle.
In: Alexandre Lacazette (Arsenal) – £9.4m

Still seemingly under the radar in the real world and the fantasy one, Lacazette is a man on form. Not only does he have 13 goals and 11 assists this season in the Premier League, he’s notched four goals and three assists in his last six and Everton could now feel his force.
In: Callum Hudson-Odoi (Chelsea) – £4.2m
