The Scout is tipping five players to produce big points in Gameweek 10 of Fantasy Premier League.

Alexandre Lacazette (ARS) £9.3m

Arsenal's schedule gives them the perfect chance to bounce back from Monday's loss at Sheffield United.

Four of the Gunners' next six Premier League encounters take place at Emirates Stadium.

And according to the Fixture Difficulty Ratings (FDR), they score a combined total of only nine.

Lacazette returned from injury with a 21-minute outing off the bench at Bramall Lane, making his first appearance since Gameweek 4.

And the Frenchman's home record suggests he can make a difference for the Gunners during their favourable schedule.

He has scored in both of his home appearances this season, with strikes against Burnley and Tottenham Hotspur earning him 13 points across those matches.

That mirrors Lacazette's displays at Emirates Stadium over his previous two campaigns.

He scored 11 of his 14 goals at home in 2017/18 and then nine of his 13 goals in 2018/19.

Overlooked

Only 1.5 per cent of managers own Lacazette for the visit of Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon.

He has a fine record against Roy Hodgson's men, providing one goal and three assists over four meetings.

The Eagles, meanwhile, have lacked resilience on the road, conceding in all four of their away fixtures.

Lacazette can be the next player to score against them, before rewarding investors with more goals over his run of kind home matches.
