Dream Team

GAMEWEEK 11 is expected to be a high-scoring affair in the world of Dream Team.Premier League mismatches, friendly European games, in-form assets against beleaguered defences… it’s got it all.
With sky-high potential for substantial points, gaffers need to get their transfers right ahead of Saturday’s 11:30am deadline.

The masterCredit: Dream Team
In the spirit of generosity, we’ve assembled some recommendations to consider…
Rodri (£4m)
Manchester City could hardly hope for a more favour double header this coming Gameweek.
The treble-winners welcome Bournemouth to the Etihad on Saturday in what is statistically the most one-sided fixture in Premier League history before another game on home soil against Young Boys in midweek.
Pep Guardiola’s side won 3-1 against the same opponent in Switzerland in Gameweek 9 and that result flattered the hosts if truth be told.
Our friends at talkSPORT Bet have City at 1/14 against the Cherries and 1/16 against Young Boys – simply put, it’s time to feast.

Naturally, Erling Haaland (£7.5m) and Julian Alvarez (£4.7m) are best-placed to cash in but if ever there was a week to stock up on City players, this is it.
Pep Guardiola’s rotation policy is a potential blockade but Rodri is surely a banker.
City have lost every game without the metronomic midfielder this season and won every game he’s played – his recent red card gave him a little break so there’s no need for the decorated tactician to rest the Spain international in the coming days.
Rodri is primarily thought of a defensive midfielder but he ranks highly for chances created from open play and shots on target.
The 27-year-old may feel like a safe choice but he averages six points-per-game this term so even a pair of standard performances against weak opposition would result in 12 points in Gameweek 11.

Dominik Szoboszlai (£3.8m)

We don’t usually repeat a transfer recommendation two weeks in a row but Liverpool’s No8 notched 15 points in Gameweek 10 so we feel it’s worth underlining his viability.
The Hungarian playmaker is a natural footballer and he’s hit the ground running at Anfield – his tally of two goals and four assists doesn’t do justice to his efforts so far.
Szoboszlai’s overall total of 73 points paints a more accurate picture as that puts him just six points shy of Anthony Gordon (£3.5m) and Bryan Mbeumo (£3.6m), who are joint-sixth among midfielders.
The Reds travel to 18th-placed Luton on Sunday before a trip to Toulouse in the Europa League on Thursday – they beat the Ligue 1 side 5-1 last week.
Szoboszlai may not start in France but Gameweek 11 should be a fruitful one for him.
It goes without saying that Mohamed Salah (£6.7m) is Liverpool’s main man – the 62.7% of gaffers without him in their XI could be severely punished in the coming days.
Kaoru Mitoma (£4m)

Brighton are without a win in their last four league games but that run featured tricky match-ups against Aston Villa (away), Liverpool and Man City.
Their next three top-flight opponents – Everton, Sheffield United, Nottingham Forest – should yield greater returns for Roberto De Zerbi and Dream Team bosses.
The Seagulls are also due to play Ajax in Amsterdam this coming week, which would usually be a daunting task but not right now, the four-time European champions are currently bottom of the Eredivisie!
When weighing up Brighton players, Dream Team gaffers should look forward not backwards.
Read More on The Sun
15.6%-owned Mitoma has scored three goals and provided five assists in 2023/24 to date.
De Zerbi has been vocal about the need for rotation when juggling European commitments on top of the domestic schedule but he’s also lavished praise on his Japanese winger – it would be a huge shock if Mitoma didn’t start against both Everton and Ajax.

ALL season long we’ve been telling Dream Team managers to save their Boosters for juicy double Gameweeks.Well, now is the perfect time to activate either Park the Bus, Max Captain or 12th Man in hope of bumper returns.
Gameweek 11 not only features a host of favourable Premier League fixtures, several clubs also have friendly European match-ups in midweek.

Manchester City look set for plenty of points this coming GameweekCredit: Getty
Teams set to pull double duty in Gameweek 11:

Manchester City vs Bournemouth (h), Young Boys (h)
Arsenal vs Newcastle (a), Sevilla (h)
Liverpool vs Luton (a), Toulouse (a)
Newcastle vs Arsenal (h), Borussia Dortmund (a)
Aston Villa vs Nottingham Forest (a), AZ Alkmaar (h)
West Ham vs Brentford (a), Olympiakos (h)
Manchester United vs Fulham (a), Copenhagen (a)
Brighton vs Everton (a), Ajax (a)

On paper, it should be a high-scoring few days in the world of Dream Team.
All three Boosters are viable but which is best deployed in Gameweek 11?
Max Captain
This Booster removes the captaincy dilemma by ensuring the player who scores the most points throughout the Gameweek has their tally doubled.
Most read in Football
Activating Max Captain this week would virtually guarantee a prosperous Gameweek because the likelihood of at least one player among any given XI racking up a substantial haul is high given the upcoming fixtures.
Gaffers who can’t decide between Erling Haaland (£7.5m), Mohamed Salah (£6.7m) and whomever else they consider a worthy option may feel now is the perfect time to play Max Captain.
The only concern with this Booster is that it could potentially go to waste.
Say you decide to captain Haaland, the default selection, but then activate Max Captain because you’re worried about Salah’s potential, only for Man City’s No9 to top score anyway.
Easy captaincy choiceCredit: Reuters
What’s become apparent is that Max Captain is probably best saved for a time when the Norwegian poacher isn’t well placed to rack up plentiful points.
And considering he’s produced 45 points across his last three outings, those who decide to simply captain Haaland normally would be absolutely justified.

Park the Bus
The most-powerful Booster doubles the points of all selected defenders for the duration of the Gameweek.
Man City’s home double against Bournemouth and Young Boys looks ripe for clean sheet points but predicting Pep Guardiola’s line-ups is a minefield, even at the back.
Newcastle and Arsenal both boast several successful defenders but the fact they’re playing each other this weekend is a spanner in the works – the hosts are the joint-top scorers in the league so a 0-0 draw seems unlikely.
Still, combining Kieran Trippier (£5.7m), Matty Cash (£3.3m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.4m) with the two City defenders most-likely to start both fixtures – Kyle Walker (£3.4m) and Ruben Dias (£4.4m)? – could be hugely beneficial.
12th Man
Fancy some extra firepower this Gameweek?Credit: Dream Team
All things considered, this is probably the best Booster to activate ahead of Gameweek 11.
Dream Team bosses are normally restricted to a maximum of three strikers but 12th Man would allow them to temporarily back four – a tempting proposition given the plethora of in-form goalscorers right now.
Haaland and Salah are must-have assets but Julian Alvarez (£4.7m), Darwin Nunez (£4.2m), Ollie Watkins (£4.7m), Son Heung-min (£4.8m) and Callum Wilson (£4.3m) are all in fine form as well.
Read More on The Sun
For the purposes of this discussion we can probably discard Son (only one fixture in Gameweek 11) and Wilson (tricky match-ups) but Alvarez, Nunez and Watkins would all make a worthy 12th Man.
Using the Booster in this way would allow for unprecedented firepower.

Brentford’s confidence must still be high after their big win at Chelsea last weekend. They host West Ham.
While Brighton have had a midweek off and travel to take on Everton, who are in decent form themselves.
Man City should be a formality as they welcome Bournemouth to the Etihad.
They have the added incentive of being able to go top – for a short time at least – if picking up three points.
And Wolves can cap off this four fold in their away fixture at Sheffield United.

Let’s run through the relevant fixtures for Matchweek 12…
Manchester City v Bournemouth
Pep Guardiola’s side are coming off the back of arguably their best performance of the season, albeit aided by Manchester United’s incompetence – we correctly predicted a 3-0 away win in last week’s Score Predictor article, by the way.
The Cherries registered their first league win of the campaign last weekend but it came against Burnley, one of the very few teams below them in the table.
The chances of Andoni Iraola’s men claiming another three points on Saturday are slim to none – our friends at talkSPORT BET have the hosts at 1/25!
Bournemouth have never beaten Man City in their 124-year history with the reigning champions having won every single Premier League meeting between the two clubs.
Most read in Football
This fixture ended 4-0 last season and we’re inclined to back a repeat.
Our Prediction: 4-0 to Man City
Eddie Howe will be hopeful of closing the gap on Arsenal this weekendCredit: Getty
Newcastle v Arsenal
Arguably the standout fixture of Matchweek 12, made even more intriguing by the two clubs’ contrasting fortunes in the Carabao Cup this week.
The Gunners produced their worst performance of the season at West Ham, suffering a 3-1 defeat, while Eddie Howe’s second-string XI breezed past a beleaguered Man United at Old Trafford.
The Premier League is a different story, however, and it should be noted that Mikel Arteta’s side remain unbeaten in the top flight.
Newcastle looked a tad leggy against Wolves last weekend but they are the joint-top scorers in the league at this stage, having scored 26 across their first ten games.
Home advantage is a massive boost for the Magpies but Arsenal will fondly remember their 2-0 win at St James’ Park back in May.
That fence looks comfortable, perhaps we’ll just rest our legs for a moment…
Our Prediction: 2-2 draw
How many goals for Villa this weekend?Credit: PA
Nottingham Forest v Aston Villa
The Villains are level with Newcastle on league 26 goals but they’ve plundered 20 of them at home and just six on the road.
Perhaps it would be unreasonable to expect another goal glut from Unai Emery’s troops this weekend, although Forest have to be considered a favourable opponent on current form.
Steve Cooper’s side have slipped to 16th having taken just four points from their last six outings.
There’s actually not much difference between the two sides defensively – Villa have conceded 14 league goals, Forest have conceded 15 – but the latter have struggled in attack.
Forest average just one goal scored per league game, worlds away from Villa’s free-flowing attacking unit.
Our Prediction: 2-1 to Aston Villa

Three-goal Liverpool to strike again?Credit: PA
Luton v Liverpool
Another significant mismatch on paper.
18th-placed Luton are already 18 points behind the Reds in the table – the gap between the Premier League’s top four and bottom four has rarely been greater.
We mentioned in last week’s Score Predictor article how frequently Liverpool are scoring three goals this season.
Jurgen Klopp’s side then underlined the point with a 3-0 win over Forest last weekend but they settled for two away to Bournemouth in the Carabao Cup in midweek – blame that slight under-performance on rotation.
Assuming Liverpool will be back to full strength on Sunday, well, you know what usually means…
Our Prediction: 3-0 to Liverpool
Spurs saviours old and newCredit: Dream Team
Tottenham v Chelsea
All eyes on the dugout for this one.
Mauricio Pochettino was once heralded as Spurs’ saviour but many of the fans who used to sing his name felt betrayed when he made Stamford Bridge his new home.
And besides, the North Londoners have a new messiah in the form of Ange Postecoglou, who has masterminded an mightily impressive start to the campaign – he’s taken 26 points from a possible 30 so far.
Chelsea’s resurgence was dramatically halted by a home defeat to Brentford last weekend, an annual event these days.
Only the top four have conceded fewer league goals than the Blues but they continue to be inefficient in the final third – only Marcus Rashford has under-performed against his xG more than Nicolas Jackson and Enzo Fernandez this season.
On paper, a home game for the league leaders against 11th should be cut and dry but Pochettino’s side clearly have considerable potential and the emotional elements around this fixture may interfere with the actual football.

THIS season, Dream Team managers have at least two transfers available to them every Gameweek.While this allows for greater flexibility, it’s still wise to look beyond the next round of fixtures when settling on a strategy.
With that in mind, we’ve identified five players with the potential to earn bountiful points throughout November, starting with Gameweek 11’s match-ups.

Take your pick from midfielders with favourable fixtures this monthCredit: Dream Team
We’ve omitted the blindingly obvious names because it goes without saying the likes of Erling Haaland (£7.5m) and Mohamed Salah (£6.7m) are strong options.
Kaoru Mitoma (£4m)
Dream Team bosses may have lost some confidence in Brighton after a run of four league games without a win.
However, the Seagulls have recently played Aston Villa (away), Liverpool and Manchester City – that’s a tricky run in anyone’s book.
There’s a good chance optimism will be restored in the coming weeks as Roberto De Zerbi’s side are set to play Everton, Ajax, Sheffield United, Nottingham Forest and AEK Athens before the end of the month.
An away day to Amsterdam would usually be a daunting prospect but the four-time European champions are actually bottom of the Eredivisie – they lost 2-0 at the Amex last week.
Most read in Football
Brighton continue to concede goals but they pack a punch going forward – only Villa and Newcastle have scored more league goals at this stage.
Mitoma and Joao Pedro (£3m) are level on 75 points as the club’s joint-best Dream Team performers but the latter is a rotation risk.
The Japanese winger has scored three goals and provided five assists in 2023/24 – he also leads the way for big chances created and bonus points among his team-mates.
Bruno Fernandes (£5.6m)
Forget his strops, look at the statsCredit: Getty
Gaffers will be reluctant to back Manchester United assets after Sunday’s one-sided derby at Old Trafford.
However, the underlying numbers suggest Fernandes has considerable potential to deliver plentiful points.
Petulant he may be but the Portuguese playmaker has created more big chances than any other midfielder this season and he’s joint-fourth in his position for shots on target as well.
He’s also among the top ten midfielders for tackles.
Simply put, the Red Devils’ captain has been a tad unlucky not to have earned more points so far this campaign though his overall tally of 72 is still very respectable.
Erik ten Hag’s side will be hopeful of encouraging performances against Fulham and Copenhagen in Gameweek 11 – with Luton, Everton and Galatasaray to follow.
Fernandes is due a double-digit haul.
Jarrod Bowen (£4.9m)
A ‘midfielder’ in the loosest possible senseCredit: Getty
West Ham have suffered three consecutive defeats but Bowen remains Dream Team’s third-best midfielder nonetheless.
The England international leads the way in his position alongside Bryan Mbeumo (£3.6m) in terms of goals, he’s bagged six in all competitions to date.
Only James Maddison (£4.5m) has registered more shots on target among midfielders.
Truth be told, Bowen’s categorisation as a midfielder is a generous one – David Moyes has deployed him as an out-and-out centre-forward at times in recent weeks.
On current form, Gameweek 11 may pose a challenge for the Hammers as their league opponents Brentford just beat Chelsea while Olympiakos got the better of them in Greece last Thursday.
However, West Ham complete the month with fixtures against Forest, Burnley and Backa Topola – a team not many English fans knew existed prior to the Europa League draw.

Moussa Diaby (£3.3m)
Diaby has hit the ground runningCredit: Getty
Aston Villa are scoring so many goals this season that even those already backing Ollie Watkins (£4.7m) would do well to consider a punchy midfield option in addition.
We previously stated that Diaby’s underlying numbers hinted that a double-digit haul was on the horizon and so it came to be last weekend when he took lowly Luton for 11 points.
The Frenchman ranks sixth among midfielders for shots on target and second for big chances created – his tally of eight goal involvements (three goals, five assists) will surely grow significantly as the season progresses.
Unai Emery’s men face a stern test in the form of an away game against league leaders Tottenham this month but the Spanish tactician won’t be overly concerned by November’s other fixtures: Forest, AZ Alkmaar, Fulham, Legia Warsaw.
Diaby is great value at £3.3m.
Kostas Tsimikas (£2.8m)
A popular choice this monthCredit: Reuters
We tipped the Greece international for a prosperous streak the moment news broke of Andy Robertson’s (£3.7m) injury.
And Tsimikas hasn’t let us down having notched 17 points in his two outings since he was promoted to first-choice left-back.
The 27-year-old didn’t feature against Toulouse in Gameweek 9 but a ten-point return against Forest in Gameweek 10 underlined his viability.
Read More on The Sun
Jurgen Klopp’s troops travel to the Etihad first up after the international break but there should be plenty of points elsewhere against Luton, Toulouse, Brentford and LASK.
Tsimikas has earned seven bonus points in six outings this season.

DARWIN NUNEZ (£4.2m) can be a frustrating figure at times.For all his positive attributes, he has a curious habit of squandering gilt-edged chances more often than Jurgen Klopp would like.
However, it would be clanging mistake to write-off the Uruguayan striker simply because he’s not the most efficient finisher around.

Nunez has impressed at the start of this seasonCredit: Dream Team
Physically imposing, Nunez has great instincts and his movement is genuinely world-class.
He also has a dogged persistence and competitive edge typical of many other South American players.
While he may miss more than his fair share of chances, Nunez’s great strength is his ability to generate opportunity after opportunity for himself.
A forward who converts one chance out of four over the course of a game is better than a striker who scores every other shot if the latter is only in the right place and the right time once every other game.
Simply put, missing chances isn’t much of an issue if the goal involvements are flowing freely.
There’s no better example of this than Erling Haaland (£7.5m).

Manchester City’s No9 missed more big chances (as defined by Opta) than any other player last season – he also broke the record for most goals in a Premier League campaign.
The Norwegian poacher has missed more big chances than any other player so far this season too – but again, he’s top scorer.
Reverting to Nunez, while he may not be the most clinical finisher around in terms of chance conversion, he’s mightily efficient with his time.
The 24-year-old averages a goal or assist every 50 minutes in Dream Team this season!
Having only played the full 90 minutes in two of his 13 appearances this term, Nunez has scored six goals and registered seven assists.
This has translated to 82 points in total, putting him sixth among assets in his position, two points behind Son Heung-min (£4.8m).

In fine formCredit: PA
Nunez has been particularly productive of late, pocketing 29 points from three outings since the start of Gameweek 9.
In fact, the aforementioned Haaland is the only striker who has produced more points across their last three games.
Looking ahead, Liverpool’s fixtures look rather favourable for the rest of November.
The Reds travel to Bournemouth this evening in the Carabao Cup before a trip to Luton this weekend.
They then to travel to Toulouse (who they recently beat 5-1) before welcoming Brentford to Anfield just prior to the international break.
Read More on The Sun
A visit to the Etihad on the 25th represents a tough test but a home fixture against LASK completes a month ripe with potential for Liverpool assets.
Nunez currently features in 10.1% of teams.

IT’S possible too many Dream Team managers are underestimating Ben White (£4.4m) this season. At the time of writing, Arsenal’s No4 has 77 points to his name.
That’s eight more than Dan Burn (£4m) and five more than Matty Cash (£3.3m), who are both more popular – the latter appears in over twice as many teams.

White name, white hairCredit: Dream Team
In fact, only Kieran Trippier (£5.7m) boasts a greater tally than White among defenders right now.
The Newcastle right-back has amassed 91 points and is sixth in the rankings among all assets from all positions.
With an ownership of 30.8%, Trippier is also one of the most-selected players in the game.
It’s not that White has been totally overlooked, his ownership of 11.4% is the seventh-highest among defenders, but given only the evidently brilliant Trippier has outperformed him to this point, shouldn’t he appear in more teams?
It’s interesting to compare the ex-Brighton defender’s numbers to that of William Saliba (£3.6m).
A popular man among Dream Team managersCredit: Getty
The Frenchman has notched a very respectable 61 points, putting him joint-seventh among players in his position, but he’s now 16 shy of White.
Most read in Football
And yet Saliba boasts a massive ownership of 29.9%, meaning he’s only marginally less popular than Trippier.
One logical reason for this is that the 22-year-old is a more affordable route into Arsenal’s defence – he’s £0.8m cheaper than White currently.
The main difference between the two is that, as right-back, White is able to contribute more going forward.
He’s registered four shots on target, two big chances created, one goal and one assist – whereas Saliba has one assist but nothing across the other three metrics.

More points to come?Credit: Getty
Mikel Arteta’s side face West Ham in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday and face a tough trip to Newcastle at the weekend but the rest of their November fixtures appear rather favourable.
Arsenal host Sevilla having beaten them in Spain recently before welcoming Burnley to the Emirates.
Brentford and Lens complete a relatively friendly run, although the Ligue 1 side did win the reverse fixture in France.
Dream Team bosses could do a lot worse than backing White throughout November given his impressive stats.

WEEKLY transfers mean Dream Team gaffers can tailor their teams to the Gameweek fixtures to a greater degree than previous seasons.However, it still pays to consider the schedule on a monthly basis to differentiate between short-term punts and players who are likely to produce healthy returns for the foreseeable future.
With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at November’s fixtures for every team currently in the top half of the Premier League.

Once again, the league leaders’ lack of European commitments is laid bare.
The likes of James Maddison (£4.5m) and Son Heung-min (£4.8m) are unquestionably among the most in-form players in the top flight and they’ll have to continue to shine if they’re to hold off rival players with additional fixtures at their disposal.
It’s a relatively tough little run for Ange Postecoglou’s side as well – Gary O’Neil’s men are unbeaten in their last five league games and the Villains haven’t tasted defeat in the top flight since the first weekend of September.

We haven’t included the Gunners’ trip to West Ham in the Carabao Cup that occurs on November 1st because that’s included in Gameweek 10, meaning it’s too late for gaffers to do anything about it now.
A visit to St James’ Park represents a stern test but Mikel Arteta will be confident of positive results elsewhere – although Lens did beat his side in France a month ago.

Liverpool’s visit to the Etihad after the international break should be a cracker.

Roberto De Zerbi has admitted he’s found it challenging juggling European games on top of the domestic schedule this season but optimism will be restored on the south coast if the Seagulls are able to take advantage of a friendly November.
Ajax away would normally be a daunting prospect for a club like Brighton but the four-time European Cup winners are in crisis right now – the Dutch giants are currently bottom of the Eredivisie!
Four away days out of five isn’t ideal but the match-ups favour Brighton.

Few Dream Team gaffers will be keen on backing the Red Devils after their dismal showing in the Manchester derby but Erik ten Hag will be hopeful of regaining some faith in the next month.
Again, four away trips out of five is unfortunate but there will be points on offer if the squad can refocus.
A failure to cash in against Fulham, Copenhagen and Luton would surely lead to a mass exodus of United assets in the world of Dream Team.

The Hammers’ form has fallen away of late so it’s hard to know what to make of this set.
There’s nothing to worry about in particular – they even finish the month against a team few fans knew existed prior to the Europa League draw – but confidence has dropped somewhat after just one win in October.
