Ahead of the final nine Gameweeks of 2020/21 Fantasy Premier League, managers will be targeting players who could have a big part to play for the run-in.

FPL expert Az Phillips has identified Diogo Jota (£6.7m) as a key acquisition and believes the fit-again Portuguese can provide excellent value as Liverpool push for a top-four finish.

"Now he's back from injury, he's the one who could spark Liverpool and get them going again as they go for the top four," he says in the latest episode of the FPL Show

"He's also a great price at £6.7m."

Chelsea's defensive prowess

As for Gianni Buttice, he is backing the Chelsea backline to continue their excellent form and is drawn to the set-piece threat and price tag of Antonio Rudiger (£4.6m).

"With Rudiger, I want to target the Chelsea defence," he says. "Azpilicueta is obviously a brilliant option and will get as many minutes, if not more, than Rudiger.

"I expect them both maybe to miss one or two games with Chelsea's involvement in cup competitions. But Rudiger is the cheaper of the two and perhaps more dangerous at set-pieces as well."

Remember, the deadline for Gameweek 30 is 11:00 BST on Saturday 3 April.
