The Scout picks the best XI for Gameweek 7 of Fantasy Premier League.
This week's line-up features doubles-ups on four clubs.
Three of them – Arsenal, Aston Villa and AFC Bournemouth – are at home and merit investment at both ends of the pitch.
Arsenal’s Gabriel (£6.2m) and Viktor Gyokeres (£9.0m) face West Ham United, while Villa’s Emiliano Martinez (£5.0m) and Ollie Watkins (£8.7m) take on promoted Burnley, and Bournemouth pair Marcos Senesi (£4.9m) and Antoine Semenyo (£7.8m) host Fulham on Friday evening.
Manchester City duo Erling Haaland (£14.4m) and Jeremy Doku (£6.6m) are also named in the 3-4-3 formation for their visit to Brentford.
Haaland earns the armband due to his prolific start to the campaign, while Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes (£9.0m) pips Gyokeres to the vice-captaincy at home to Sunderland.
Emiliano Martinez (Aston Villa) £5.0m
A visit from Burnley gives the Villa goalkeeper the chance to add to his total of just one clean sheet in four outings. In away matches, Burnley have had a league-low two big chances, which are situations where the player is expected to score.
Gabriel (Arsenal) £6.2m
As evidenced by his late winner at Newcastle United last weekend, the centre-back's threat at free-kicks and corners makes him the best Arsenal defender to own in Fantasy. Gabriel faces a West Ham side who have conceded a league-high 34 shots at set-pieces this season.
Dan Burn (Newcastle) £5.0m
A home match with Nottingham Forest gives Newcastle the chance to collects a fifth clean sheet of the campaign. Burn is the Magpies' top-scoring player in Fantasy thanks to his defensive contributions, while he also offers a decent threat at set-pieces.
Marcos Senesi (Bournemouth) £4.9m
Bournemouth's centre-back is the top-scoring defender in Fantasy, collecting 44 points due to his many routes to returns. Senesi has combined two assists with three clean sheets and is the ONLY player to collect two points for his defensive contributions in each of the first six Gameweeks.
Bruno Fernandes (Man Utd) £9.0m
Man Utd's playmaker has proven a reliable captaincy pick in home matches lately, earning 10 points in each of his last two outings at Old Trafford. Fernandes offers many routes to returns against Sunderland. He has scored twice this season, collected two sets of defensive contribution points and also created 16 chances, the second-best total in the league.
Antoine Semenyo (Bournemouth) £7.8m
Bournemouth's talisman has averaged 8.0 points per match on his way to the top of the midfielder standings on 48 points. Semenyo's 12 shots in the box and six big chances also both place first in his position in Fantasy, an indication of his huge goal threat against Fulham.
Jeremy Doku (Man City) £6.6m
The winger has four assists in three appearances since securing a starting role for Man City in Gameweek 4. Doku has had two big chances and created three more of them in those last three Gameweeks, meaning he has been involved in a total of five big chances - placing him first among midfielders in Fantasy over that period.
Yankuba Minteh (Brighton) £5.9m
Brighton & Hove Albion's winger is another player who has stepped up his output recently, scoring against Tottenham Hotspur and supplying an assist against both Bournemouth and Chelsea in the last three Gameweeks. Minteh can maintain that momentum away at a Wolverhampton Wanderers side who have conceded at least three goals in each of their first three home matches.
Erling Haaland (Man City) £14.4m
His midweek brace away at Monaco in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday took Haaland to 11 goals and an assist in his first eight matches across all competitions for Man City. The Norwegian has produced nine or more points in five of the opening six Gameweeks in Fantasy, making the captaincy decision an easy one against Brentford.
Viktor Gyokeres (Arsenal) £9.0m
Arsenal's Swedish forward has scored all three of his goals this season at Emirates Stadium, collecting 20 of his 24 points in home matches. Gyokeres' 13 shots in the box and four big chances are both team-leading totals for the Gunners, indicating his major goal threat against West Ham.
Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa) £8.7m
After ending his run of five blanks with a goal at home against Fulham last weekend, the Aston Villa forward can profit from Burnley's frailties on the road. In away matches, the Clarets are the worst team when it comes to conceding shots, shots in the box and shots on target.
