FPL gameweek 22 tips: Antoine Semenyo, Florian Wirtz and Dominic Calvert-Lewin to start


Florian Wirtz, Liverpool, £8.2m – Burnley (h)

Burnley’s defence, the second worst away from home, is always one to target and Wirtz has been on a fine run recently.

He was barely a threat in the 0-0 draw at Arsenal, but prior to that he had three returns in four games including two 10-pointers.

In those four games, he and forward Hugo Ekitike – who missed one of them – have stood out above all other Liverpool attacking assets.

Look at the figures for those games:

Wirtz – 11 shots, two big chances, 11 chances created, two goals, one assist and one set of defensive contribution points.

Ekitike – 16 shots, four big chances, three goals and an assist.

Those two are the Liverpool assets FPL managers should trust.

Bruno Guimaraes, Newcastle, £7.2m – Wolves (a)

While the Brazilian is on this run of form – 10, 10 and 11 points in consecutive games – you have to pick him.

He’s scored three goals from just five shots and only three of those shots have been from in the box. Logic says his run of points can’t continue but… Wolves away.

Despite the bottom side’s improved form, you still have to target them.

Antoine Semenyo, Manchester City, £7.6m – Manchester United (a)

It doesn’t look like Pep Guardiola is going to spend any time gently easing Semenyo into his side. The Ghana forward has gone straight into the team and scored in his first two matches.

Is anyone expecting the Manchester derby to be tight? City have lost their best two centre-backs and United have been unable to keep clean sheets all season.

Semenyo’s Bournemouth production looks likely to continue at his new club.

Enzo Fernandez, Chelsea, £6.4m – Brentford (h)

Only Brentford’s Kevin Schade (12) has had more big chances from midfield this season than Fernandez (10).

Only Bruno Fernandes (35%) has a higher expected goal involvement when on the pitch than the Argentine (34%).

While FPL managers wait for Cole Palmer to rediscover top form, the much cheaper Fernandez is the Chelsea asset to pick.
