The home form of Marcus Rashford (£7.3m) makes a strong case for considering him over Erling Haaland (£12.2m) for the Gameweek 24 captaincy in Fantasy Premier League

The Manchester United star has been a huge success at Old Trafford this season, averaging 9.3 points per start.

Rashford welcomes Leicester City on Sunday on the back of just a single blank in nine outings since the season resumed.

Haaland, nonetheless, will be the most-selected captain for Manchester City’s trip to Nottingham Forest due to his huge 85 per cent ownership.

The Norwegian scored a hat-trick and claimed 17 points in his previous meeting with his weekend hosts.

Haaland's team-mate, Riyad Mahrez (£7.8m), can also deliver a huge score at the City Ground. 

He is Man City’s top-scoring player since the season resumed, producing four goals, five assists and 60 points across nine outings.

Midfield differentials

Brighton & Hove Albion’s Kaoru Mitoma (£5.3m) and Arsenal’s Martin Odegaard (£7.0m) offer further options in midfield.

Mitoma has averaged 7.3 points per home start ahead of a home meeting with Fulham, while Odegaard visits Aston Villa on the back of 40 points in his last four road trips.

More joy for Kane against Hammers?

Forwards Harry Kane (£11.8m) and Ivan Toney (£7.6m) also have the form and fixtures to deliver major hauls.

Tottenham Hotspur’s Kane has a prolific recent record against his visitors West Ham United, with two goals, four assists and 29 points in his last two home meetings.

Brentford's Toney has averaged 6.2 points per appearance since the season resumed ahead of a home encounter with Crystal Palace.
