The Scout is tipping five players to produce big points in Gameweek 25 of Fantasy Premier League.

Jack Grealish (AVL) £6.7m

The Aston Villa playmaker has been a major influence on the road lately.

Grealish has recorded two of his three double-figure hauls this term in Villa's last two away matches.

He produced a goal and an assist in their 2-1 win at Burnley in Gameweek 21 to claim 13 points.

The 24-year-old then netted in a 1-1 draw at Brighton & Hove Albion in Gameweek 23 to earn 10 points.

The underlying statistics highlight Grealish's all-round influence on Villa's attack on the road.

His 18 chances created are more than any team-mate, while his 20 shots are second only to the 21 of Wesley (£5.5m).

Grealish's numbers are also impressive when assessed against other FPL midfielders.

Indeed, he ranks among the top 10 midfielders for both shots and chances created away from home this season.

Charitable Cherries?

A visit to AFC Bournemouth has boosted Grealish's popularity in FPL.

He is the fourth most-bought midfielder ahead of Saturday's 11:30 GMT deadline, earning over 88,000 transfers in.

Those new owners will be encouraged by the Cherries' recent struggles in defence.

Eddie Howe's side have managed just one clean sheet in the last 13 Gameweeks, losing on 10 of those occasions.

Grealish can profit from those frailties and get more FPL returns on the road on Saturday afternoon.
