Both Marcus Rashford (£7.0m) and Harry Kane (£11.6m) have the form to outscore Erling Haaland (£12.2m) in Double Gameweek 20 of Fantasy Premier League.

His ownership of 85 per cent, means Manchester City’s star striker will retain his place as the most-selected captain for his matches with Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur.
Haaland produced his season-high haul of 23 points in the Manchester derby in Gameweek 9 and will tempt many managers to play their Triple Captain chip.
In-form pair
Nonetheless, he has been outperformed by Rashford and Kane since the campaign resumed.
Rashford has scored in all six of Man Utd's matches since returning from the FIFA World Cup 2022, totalling seven goals and two assists in that run.
He will visit Crystal Palace in the second match of his Double Gameweek.
Kane, meanwhile, produced his top score of the campaign against the Eagles in Gameweek 19, combining two goals with an assist for 16 points.
The Spurs talisman has a prolific record against both his upcoming opponents, Arsenal and Man City.
Indeed, he scored twice and earned 13 points in each of the corresponding fixtures last season.
Kane risk
Kane’s armband appeal is slightly dented, though, as he is currently on four yellow cards.
If he is booked against the Gunners on Sunday, he would serve a one-match ban and sit out the clash with Man City.
Managers who are willing to take further risks with the captaincy could consider midfield big-hitters Kevin De Bruyne (£12.5m), Bruno Fernandes (£9.8m) or Son Heung-min (£11.6m).
De Bruyne's 57 key passes and 19 big chances created are both more than double any Man City team-mate.
Fernandes, meanwhile, has attacking returns in each of Man Utd’s previous two fixtures yet is owned by only three per cent of squads.
Son scored his first goal since Gameweek 8 in Spurs' win at Palace in the previous Gameweek. His total of 11 double-figure hauls last term was more than any other player in Fantasy.
Don't forget the GW20 deadline is 18:30 GMT on Friday 13 January
