There are triple-ups on Manchester City and Newcastle United in the best team for Gameweek 15 in Fantasy Premier League.
Both clubs have home encounters with promoted clubs this weekend and are backed in every outfield position .
Man City trio Nico O’Reilly (£5.2m), Phil Foden (£8.3m) and Erling Haaland (£15.0m) are up against Sunderland, while Newcastle’s Malick Thiaw (£5.0m), Bruno Guimaraes (£6.8m) and Nick Woltemade (£7.4m) face Burnley.
Haaland continues as the captain, with Woltemade named as vice-captain.
Jordan Pickford (Everton) £5.5m
Three clean sheets over the last four Gameweeks have taken the Everton No 1 to 60 points, just four off the top of the goalkeeper standings. Pickford can extend that run of returns at home to a Nottingham Forest side who have scored just once across their last two matches.
Daniel Munoz (Crystal Palace) £6.1m
Three goals, three assists and seven clean sheets have taken the Crystal Palace wing-back to the top of the defender standings on 89 points. Munoz visits Fulham in outstanding away form – he has scored, kept a clean sheet and produced 14 points in each of his last two outings on the road.
Nico O’Reilly (Man City) £5.2m
Man City’s left-back has been a huge success at the Etihad Stadium recently due to his impact at both ends of the pitch. O’Reilly has collected 42 points over his last six home appearances, combining a goal and three assists with three clean sheets.
Malick Thiaw (Newcastle) £5.0m
The German is Newcastle’s form defender, with two goals and four defensive contribution points over the last four Gameweeks. Thiaw’s total of nine shots in the box is more than the combined eight of every other Magpies defender, marking him out as their go-to pick at the back against Burnley.
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) £10.1m
Arsenal’s winger visits Aston Villa in his most consistent form of the season, with two goals, an assist, four defensive contribution points and no blanks across his last four outings. In away matches, Saka’s 13 shots, 12 shots in the box and 13 chances created are all team-leading totals for the Gunners.
Bruno Fernandes (Man Utd) £9.0m
Manchester United’s playmaker boasts a strong away record ahead of a trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers. Fernandes has supplied all five of his assists this season across his last four road trips, with 29 points and no blanks in that run.
Phil Foden (Man City) £8.3m
Four goals and 32 points across the last two Gameweeks have made the Man City star the priority pick for managers ahead of Saturday’s 11:00 GMT deadline. Foden has earned a hefty 773,000+ transfers in, almost half a million more than any other player.
Bruno Guimaraes (Newcastle) £6.8m
After coming on to score as a substitute in midweek, the Newcastle midfielder has the home form to deliver a huge haul against Burnley. Guimaraes has amassed 41 points over his last four appearances at St James’ Park, thanks to three goals and three assists.
Yankuba Minteh (Brighton) £6.3m
Brighton & Hove Albion’s winger has the home form to pose big problems for West Ham United this weekend. Minteh has supplied two assists in two of the Seagulls’ last three matches at Amex Stadium, collecting 22 points across those contests.
Erling Haaland (Man City) £15.0m
Man City’s Norwegian delivered his sixth double-figure haul of 2025/26 Fantasy against Fulham in midweek, scoring once and supplying two assists to claim 14 points. Haaland’s potential for those huge hauls, added to his mammoth 72 per cent ownership, makes the captaincy decision a very easy one.
Nick Woltemade (Newcastle) £7.4m
Since making his appearance for the Magpies in Gameweek 4, Woltemade has scored or assisted in seven of his 11 outings. His totals of 19 shots in the box and eight big chances – situations where a player is expected to score – both rank first among team-mates during that period.
