Ekitike (8.6m)
After returning from injury, Ekitike has become a key figure in Liverpool’s lineup, confidently securing his spot as manager Arne Slot favors him over Isak due to his consistent form and clear impact on the pitch. The young forward has delivered a strong season so far, earning 68 points across 15 matches, establishing himself as a reliable attacking option in Fantasy. With his upcoming fixture against a defensively struggling Tottenham, his chances of scoring and making a difference are high, making him a smart inclusion in your lineup for valuable points in the next Gameweek.
Igor Thiago (7.2m)
Brentford continues to spring surprises on us this season. After Ivan Toney left & then the brief flourish of Mbeumo, things have really taken off for Igor Thiago. He’s turned out to be one of the real finds in the Premier League, netting 13 goals in his 16 matches so far & that’s put him a close second in the league’s top scorer charts. Thiago has been doing this pretty much all season, racking up 82 points in those 16 games – just what you’d want from your fantasy forward. And given that Wolverhampton – their season’s falling apart & they’re basically in the Championship already – have a dodgy defence, Thiago’s got a great chance of keeping his form going, making him a pretty reliable pick to bring in some extra points in the next gameweek.
Erling Haaland (15m)
Undoubtedly, Haaland has become one of the most pivotal forwards in Premier League history, and he is on track to surpass even Alan Shearer. He has scored 17 goals in 16 matches, amassing 135 Fantasy points, playing a key role in Manchester City’s challenge as Arsenal’s main competitor in the Premier League standings. Haaland is unquestionably the league’s top scorer this season, and with his upcoming fixture against a vulnerable West Ham side, his chances of finding the net are extremely high!
Mateta (7.8m)
Mateta has always been one of the most underrated forwards in Fantasy Premier League. Despite being overlooked by many, with ownership hovering just above 20%, he consistently delivers strong performances and proves his effectiveness in front of goal. The Crystal Palace striker has already accumulated 63 points this season, scoring 7 goals, firmly placing himself among the contenders for the Premier League’s top scorer. With his upcoming Gameweek 17 fixture against Leeds United, Mateta is a smart pick capable of making a difference and giving your lineup a significant points boost, especially given his full fitness and consistent form.
Gameweek 17 could be a turning point in your season, and choosing the right forward is key to gaining an edge. Take advantage of favorable fixtures, monitor player form closely, and don’t hesitate to make a bold decision that could make all the difference in your Fantasy ranking.
