Fantasy Football: October Predictions
October is a critical month for Premier League clubs. When the international break is over, there’s no breathing space until the end of the season. The games come thick and fast, but that’s good news if you’re a fantasy manager. A congested fixture list makes it easier to score points.
However, players often pick up niggles and injuries during busy periods. For that reason, you should check the latest team news before selecting your squad. If your star forward is sidelined for a couple of games, it could harm your points tally. Take a few minutes to scour social media sites for the latest updates.
According to Bonusbets.com, there are plenty of thrilling games during October. We’re going to look ahead at the fixtures and post our fantasy league predictions.
Norwich vs Aston Villa – If Teemu Pukki is in your team, you should be excited about this game. The Finnish forward has scored a bundle of goals for Norwich this season. Additionally, Aston Villa have conceded at least one goal in most of their matches so far. What’s more, we think it’s only a matter of time before Jack Grealish starts scoring. This game promises to deliver plenty of fantasy league points.
Man City vs Wolves – City are wonderful at the Etihad. Aguero, Sterling, and Bernardo Silva have bagged plenty of goals already. However, they could also keep a clean sheet here against a struggling Wolves side. Ederson, Walker, De Bruyne, Sterling, Silva, and Aguero are the potential point scorers here. Jota and Jimenez are the main threats for the visitors, but Dendoncker can also chip in with goals and assists.
Chelsea vs Newcastle – Tammy Abraham and Mason Mount have been Chelsea’s standout players so far. However, it’s been a frustrating time for Christain Pulisic owners. The American winger hasn’t played many minutes. If he can force his way into the team, he could potentially get off the mark against Newcastle. Almiron and Joelinton will create most of the Magpie’s chances. We’d recommend benching your Newcastle defenders for this game.
Man Utd vs Liverpool – This should be a fantastic match. The Reds are scoring plenty of goals. However, let’s not forget about Robertson and Alexander-Arnold. The fullbacks chip in with plenty of assists and goals of their own. If you own Wan-Bissaka, we’d drop him for this game. Rashford and Poga could be the main point scorers for the hosts. Keep a close eye on team news and make your selections from there.
Man City vs Aston Villa – This could be the perfect time to triple captain Aguero or Sterling. The Citizens are ruthless at home. If you have any Villa defenders in your team, leave them out of this one. Man City have already scored eight against Watford this season. We don’t think they’ll do the same to Villa, but they could put three or four past Dean Smith’s men. City’s defenders and midfielders could also score lots of points during this game. Take your pick.
