Don’t Start Your Gameweek Without Them: Top Forwards for Fantasy – GW1
At Fantasy 24 Club, we’re back with our Premier League opening gameweek picks—the article fantasy fans look forward to every season! This week, we bring you a list of the key forwards you should secure in your squad if you’re aiming for a strong start and a competitive edge at the top.
1- Bowen 8m
Once again, Jarrod Bowen, West Ham’s most underrated star, shines as one of the club’s key players. Over the past two seasons, he’s contributed 45 goals, both scoring and assisting, and he’s always been a starter as the team captain and designated penalty taker. With West Ham facing newly promoted Sunderland in the opening gameweek, having him in your squad will be crucial.
2- Joao pedro 7.5m
The dangerous João Pedro, capable of playing in four positions but primarily a striker, seems like the forward Marisca has always dreamed of—fast, prolific, and consistent throughout the season. With Chelsea’s first game against a defensively average Crystal Palace, having João Pedro in your starting lineup makes scoring big points almost a given
3- Solanke 7.5m
Dominic Solanke, Tottenham’s striker, is widely expected to be the team’s main forward, with Richarlison shifting into Son’s role. Solanke is a powerful attacker, and with Spurs’ opening match against newly promoted and relatively weak Burnley, he looks set to be a key source of points.
4- Haaland 14m
Erling Haaland—the legendary striker and Manchester City’s undisputed number one forward—is always a lock in Pep’s lineup and the club’s penalty taker. City’s opening game is against a defensively average Wolves, and with an attacking arsenal featuring Marmoush, Haaland, Rayan Cherki, Jérémy Doku, and Savinho, leaving Haaland out of your squad isn’t an option. He’s an absolute must-pick
As the Premier League’s opening gameweek kicks off, choosing the right forwards is the first step toward a successful Fantasy season. Focus on players with consistent performances and real chances to shine in these early fixtures. Bowen, Pedro, Solanke, and Haaland stand out as top picks to give you a strong and competitive start.
