Fantasy Gameweek 25 Differentials

The following three suggested picks for Gameweek 25 are all currently owned by under 5% of EPL Fantasy Season Game managers:

Dean Huijsen

Ownership - 1.45%

Bournemouth get set to travel to St Mary's to face a Southampton side who have won just two games all season.

Dean Huijsen has formed a formidable partnership with Illia Zabarnyi for the Cherries, and Andoni Iraola's side will be looking to return to winning ways after a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Liverpool last time out in the league.

Owned by just 1.45% of players, Huijsen looks a great pick given the Saints' inconsistencies at home.

Dango Ouattara

Ownership - 1%

Dango Ouattara joins fellow Bournemouth teammate Dean Huijsen in our Gameweek 25 suggested XI.

While the Burkina Faso international was unable to make an impact against league leaders Liverpool last time out, the Cherries face completely different opposition on Saturday, and should face no problems getting past Southampton.

Playing in a more central role in the absence of Evanlinson and Enes Unal, don't be surprised to see Ouattara find the net.

Ethan Nwaneri

Ownership - 0.06%

Arsenal's injury list continues to grow, especially in the forward department. While this does the Gunners no good in their pursuit of the title, it could offer Ethan Nwaneri the opportunity to solidify a spot in the starting XI.

Finding the net in Arsenal's 5-1 triumph over Manchester City, Nwaneri looks keen to impress and will be out to prove a point against Leicester.

Fantasy Gameweek 25 Captain

Mohamed Salah

Mohamed Salah leads the way as the most obvious captaincy choice for Gameweek 25, facing a struggling Wolves and an injury-plagued Aston Villa in the space of four days.

Liverpool's 'Egyptian King' has been directly involved in 34 Premier League goals for the Reds this season, a tally bettered by no other player in the league.

It would be no shock to see him add to this figure as Liverpool aim to create breathing space between themselves and Arsenal in the race for the title.
