<p><em>In this Fantasy Premier League series FPL Junior (four top 13k finishes in last four seasons) shares his FPL tips by selecting a team each week to try and score as many points as possible. In essence, he will be “free hitting” every single Gameweek. Rather than selecting longer-term options, he&#8217;ll solely focus on players with the best form and fixtures for the upcoming Gameweek 33+.</em></p>
<p>We are back with a quickfire Gameweek after GW32+ was drawn out over six days. I&#8217;ve opted for a 4-5-1 this week and I wish I could have had even more midfielders. The midfield seems to be the place to find value at the moment, but it also has plenty of firing premium options, so it&#8217;s a bit of a balancing act. I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised to see some rotation this week, so for those on Free Hit I&#8217;d advise having at least one, even two players who you would be happy come off your bench.</p>

<h3>Goalkeeper</h3>
<p>This season&#8217;s top-scoring keeper takes the number one spot this Gameweek. <strong>Pope</strong> has only failed to pick up bonus points on three occasions this season when his team has kept a clean sheet. This is helped by Burnley rarely scoring more than 2 goals. I&#8217;m also starting to target Sheffield Utd as they&#8217;ve struggled to find their shooting boots until they faced a laughable Spurs defence.</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3>Defence</h3>
<p><strong>Wan-Bissaka</strong> has thoroughly impressed me and has been the clear standout from the Man Utd backline, surpassing <strong>Maguire&#8217;s</strong> goal threat. The full-back&#8217;s heatmap has shown how far forward he&#8217;s getting, spending much more time the oppositions half and final third, than his own. He&#8217;s created four chances in three games and he&#8217;s been rewarded with two assists. He&#8217;s also hoovering up the bonus points with two and one his previous two games. Bournemouth have shown little substance going forward to add to his appeal.</p>
<p><strong>Alexander-Arnold</strong> was a straight forward pick this Gameweek. 19th place Aston Villa who&#8217;ve shown minimal goal threat looks a banker for a clean sheet this week. You already know his attacking potential with set-pieces and his tendency to cross at every opportunity possible. Liverpool&#8217;s ragged performance against Man City is a slight worry but I believe Klopp&#8217;s side will bounce back with a strong performance.</p>
<p>Watford have surprised me since the restart. They&#8217;re fighting for survival but have just averaged one big chance per game. With Chelsea up next, <strong>Alonso</strong> gets a spot in the side. His underlying <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/opta/" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c="1" title="FPL Stats by OPTA - Player and Team Stats">stats</a> were brilliant pre-lockdown and the Spaniard looks to have regained the left-back spot from <strong>Emerson</strong> as he looks to be moving abroad. However, his poor defensive display against West Ham does make me feel slightly worried. Chelsea have still a bit to go before they secure Champions League football, so Frank won&#8217;t be taking his foot off the gas</p>
<p>Man City&#8217;s main centre back rounds out the defence. <strong>Laporte</strong> is yet to play 90 minutes since the return as Pep has gradually eased him back. If Man City don&#8217;t go mental, then <strong>Laporte</strong> is always in and around the bonus points. His main threat is Ings, but with Ederson in goal I back City to prevent the golden boot contender from having many big chances.</p>
<h3>Midfield</h3>
<p><strong>Salah</strong> against the leagues worst defence looks like goals on paper and to me is a must on Free Hit this week. As he stated earlier in the week, he&#8217;s eager to win the golden boot for the third time running and who wouldn&#8217;t be! <strong>Salah</strong> had three shots inside the box and cut a shot across the goal, hitting the post against Man City. Gunning for the golden boot should see him start.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m keeping the same Man Utd double up in the midfield as last week. <strong>Fernandes</strong>&#8216; natural fitness is next level and he got half an hour off after his MOTM performance against Brighton. What makes him such a great asset is his ability to hit a pass out of nowhere and his tendency to shoot. His long shots make him even more appealing against teams that are defensively minded and hard to break down. <strong>Martial</strong> gets the second spot. He had a quiet performance against Brighton but he&#8217;s the type of player to blow hot and cold. Playing number nine he&#8217;s always going to be getting into attacking positions and he&#8217;s currently my second favourite Man Utd attacking option.</p>
<p><strong>Pulisic</strong> is back in the Hub XI after his third return in a row against West Ham. The American winger is Chelsea most potent attacker and carries out dribbles similar to former blue, Hazard. He loves a shot on goal but his two assists last week shows he creates chances and his agility can win his side penalties. As previously stated there&#8217;s not much going for Watford and Foster hasn&#8217;t been at his best.</p>
<p><strong>Mahrez</strong> takes the final midfielder spot after he came off the bench midweek. Predicting Pep is never easy or wise but with a poor performance from <strong>Jesus</strong>, I see <strong>Mahrez</strong> taking that right wing spot while <strong>Sterling</strong> starts as a false nine. Pep&#8217;s demolition of the newly crowned league champions shows their goal threat and an attacker against Southampton is a must.</p>
<h3>Forwards</h3>
<p>Few striker options that stood out this week, so it&#8217;s just a lone striker this Gameweek. The Mexican is my only striker this week and himself and his side love playing against the &#8220;big six.&#8221; <strong>Jimenez</strong> plays Arsenal who kept a rare clean sheet against a toothless Norwich and Wolves will much prefer to play against their defence than a compact relegation fighting one. His wife is due to give birth this month so I don&#8217;t see Nuno giving him rest when he may be forced into one down the line.</p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">While Leicester have struggled for goals, their defence has been relatively solid and coming up against Crystal Palace this week earns <strong>Chilwell</strong> a spot on the bench. If money is an issue <strong>Justin</strong> or Brighton&#8217;s <strong>Lamptey</strong> provide good value. <strong>Connolly</strong> at £4.2m provides great value as he faced rock bottom, Norwich. <strong>Martinez</strong> and <strong>Nketiah</strong> also get a spot on the bench with Arsenal travelling to Molineux.</span></p>
<h3>Gameweek 33+ Captaincy</h3>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">For me, there are three standout teams to choose your captain from this week: Man Utd, Man City and Liverpool. This week I’ve given it to <strong>Martial</strong>. The Frenchman just edges out <strong>Fernandes</strong> but I can see it going either way, with both players returning handsomely. Bournemouth have been abysmal and I think Solskjaer will rotate minimally as his side top four chances have been given a massive boost.  </span><span class="s1"><strong>Salah</strong> misses out as I feel Aston Villa are defensively better than Bournemouth at this moment in time, but I don’t think they’ll be enough to withstand an angry Liverpool team. </span></p>
<h3>Notable omissions</h3>
<p class="p1" style="text-align: left;"><span class="s1">The Newcastle West Ham matchup looks an interesting affair with some great value options for those struggling on budget. <strong>Saint-Maximan</strong> and <strong>Bowen</strong> both are vocal players in their side&#8217;s attack. The two picked up five assists between them last week. </span><strong>Kane</strong> looked sharp against Sheffield and hit the back of the net four times. Everton have conceded just once in the past three Gameweeks, but this fixture has been quite a high scoring affair over the past three years. <strong>Willian</strong> was edged out by his teammate <strong>Pulisic</strong>, but the Brazillian&#8217;s set-pieces are a massive string to his bow. His reliance on penalties and free kicks made me favour the latter, but it was a close call. <strong>De Bruyne</strong> was left out after he played 90 minutes on Thursday. While it&#8217;s hard to say whether he starts or not, I believe he will have limited minutes this week, making me favour <strong>Mahrez</strong>.</p>
