By The Scout 20 Oct 2022

Cancelo has three double-figure hauls this season and is selected with two other Man City stars

Joao Cancelo (£7.3m) is among three Manchester City players included in the Scout Selection for Gameweek 13 of Fantasy Premier League.

MCI

3-1

BHA

Cancelo has proven a huge source of returns at the Etihad Stadium, producing three double-figure hauls in his five appearances.

The Portuguese has combined two goals and two assists with three clean sheets in that run, also collecting five bonus points.

He entertains a Brighton & Hove Albion side who have failed to score in each of their last three fixtures.

City team-mates Phil Foden (£8.4m) and Erling Haaland (£12.1m) also take their places in a 3-4-3 formation, with Foden named as vice-captain and the striker handed the armband.

Lukasz Fabianski (WHU) £5.0m

The West Ham United No 1 offers many routes to returns at home to AFC Bournemouth. Fabianski has 19 points in his last four outings, thanks to one clean sheet, five save points and two bonus.

Joao Cancelo (MCI) £7.3m

An average of 8.6 points per home start highlights his captaincy credentials against Brighton.

Andrew Robertson (LIV) £6.7m

An ownership of only 3.8 per cent makes the Liverpool left-back a huge differential at Nottingham Forest. Robertson will be fully refreshed after being rested in midweek and can deliver returns at both ends of the pitch.

Gabriel (ARS) £5.1m

Arsenal's centre-back has averaged 5.8 points per away match, keeping a clean sheet in four of his five road trips. Gabriel's aerial threat will be a major weapon against a Southampton side who have struggled to defend such situations this season.

Phil Foden (MCI) £8.4m

Man City's midfielder is the most-bought player in the Gameweek, earning nearly 400,000 new owners ahead of Saturday's 11:00 BST deadline. Foden has delivered 30 points in his last two home matches, thanks to four goals and an assist.

James Maddison (LEI) £8.2m

After serving a one-match ban in Gameweek 12, Leicester City's playmaker will be fresh for the trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers. Maddison has amassed 28 points in his previous four appearances, scoring three goals and providing an assist.

Bukayo Saka (ARS) £7.9m

The Arsenal winger visits Southampton on the back of only one blank in his last seven appearances. Saka has four goals and four assists over that run, averaging 7.4 points per match from Gameweek 4 onwards.

Wilfried Zaha (CRY) £7.5m

Crystal Palace's talisman faces Everton on the back of his fifth goal of the season and an eight-point haul in a 2-1 win over Wolves in midweek. Zaha can get more returns against an Everton side who have lost their last three fixtures.

Erling Haaland (MCI) £12.1m

Man City's Norwegian has 10 goals and two assists in his last four home appearances. Haaland averages 13.6 points per match at the Etihad in his debut season in Fantasy and will again be the go-to captain for millions of managers.

Darwin Nunez (LIV) £8.8m

Liverpool's Uruguayan has scored in each of his last two starts ahead of a visit to Nottingham Forest. Nunez's 12 shots, nine shots in the box and five shots on target are all team-leading totals in the last three Gameweeks.

Gianluca Scamacca (WHU) £6.8m

The West Ham forward has netted in each of his last two at home, amassing 17 points. Scamacca's 13 shots in the box in his last four matches place second only to the 17 of Haaland among all players in Fantasy.

GW13 deadline: 11:00 BST, Sat 22 Oct
