This game is entertainment guaranteed and do not miss it !!!

This game week analysis gives you a food for thought for your substitutions with a host of players who can turn out to be useful buys.

FORWARDS:

Arouna Kone

A shrewd buy from Levante, Kone has settled in quickly at Wigan and has scored 4 goals this season. Victor Moses already seems to be a forgotten man. He is quick, good in the air and a constant threat. He comes at a price of 6.5 and only a matter of time before the price goes up. Opponent: Liverpool (Away)

Nikica Jelavic

The Croatian striker has settled in well at Everton following his move from Rangers last season. He has a slow start to this season and looks to be finding his touch again over the last few weeks. His winner against Sunderland last weekend will give him a lot of confidence. He has good strength in the air and Everton will be looking up to him to fire them to the top four. 
Price: 8.5 (costly) 
Opponents: a struggling Reading (Away)

A relatively cheaper option for the game week can be Dimitar Berbatov - The classy bulgarian has rediscovered his joy for playing football at Fulham and is in top form. Price: 7.5 and rising. He plays Sunderland at home this weekend.

MIDFIELDERS:

Adam Johnson

Having struggled to establish himself at Manchester City, the skillful winger has a point to prove at Sunderland. He has slowly settled in at the Stadium of Lights and is starting to show his form. His goal against Everton last weekend will only boost his confidence. He is a constant threat and can change the game in an instant. 
Price: 6.8
Opponents: Fulham (Away)

Damien Duff

A seasoned campaigner who is a consistent points scorer over the years in the fantasy premier league. His career has been haunted by injuries and he is a real threat when he gets a run of games. The Fulham winger has got off to a great start to the season and has a lethal left foot.
Price: 6.3
Opponents: Sunderland (Home)

DEFENDERS:

Winston Reid

The New Zealand international took time to settle in at West Ham and has been in excellent form this season. He is attracting a lot of interest from top clubs and West Ham are desperate to tie him down to a new improved deal. He has been solid at the back for West ham and they have already kept 5 clean sheets this season. He comes at a price: 5 but is value for money.
Opponents: Stoke City (Home)

Brede Hangeland

The tall Norwegian is a consistent performer in the Premier League over the years. Into his fifth season at Fulham, he has been a towering presence at the back. He is a constant goal threat in the air with his height and has an eye for a pass. He can also take the ball out from the defense and go on a run. 
Price: 5.0
Opposition: Sunderland (Away).

KEEPERS:

Jussi Jaaskelainen

The veteran goalkeeper was forced to quit Bolton last season following their relegation after playing for them for 15 years. He is the longest serving foreign player in the Premier League having joined Bolton in 1997. He is a huge presence in goal and at 37, he has only got better. He has played a key part in West Ham's 5 clean sheets so far. You can rely on him for points. 
Price: 5.1 
Opposition: Stoke City (Home)


Get set for another action packed EPL weekend and may your team gather a lot of points !!!

See you next Game Week !!!
