Fantasy Premier League managers only have until 6.30pm on Friday evening to make changes ahead of a big gameweek 27.
Southampton’s game with Norwich means the clock is ticking on executing those transfer and captain decisions, with a few teams not playing and Burnley enjoying another double gameweek.
Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal are all out of action, meaning this could be the time to play a free hit.
Here, we detail our top five picks for GW27...
Wout Weghorst - Burnley - £6.5m
It may feel obvious going for the main threat in the only team playing twice this week, but sometimes you can be too clever in FPL. Weghorst has a goal and two assists in his five Premier League matches ahead of facing Crystal Palace and Leicester.
Son Heung-min - Tottenham - £10.8m
Spurs are not the sort of team you can trust in FPL, but a trip to Leeds should mean plenty of opportunities to attack into space for Son and Co.
Anthony Elanga - Manchester United - £4.8m
Ralf Rangnick really should entrust the teenage winger with a start after his heroics off the bench at Atletico Madrid. Watford at home are next up for United, with Elanga a very cheap option in good form - if he makes only his fifth league start.
Ryan Fraser - Newcastle - £5.3m
In the absence of Kieran Trippier, Fraser will be one of the Magpies’ players on set-piece duties at Brentford on Saturday and Eddie Howe has got his new team purring.
James Maddison - Leicester - £6.8m
A weekend off will be welcome relief for the Foxes, after their exploits at Randers in midweek. They then head to Burnley, who will themselves be piling on the games and could be vulnerable to Maddison if he carries his scoring form over from Denmark.
