The Scout is tipping five players to produce big points in Gameweek 32 of 2022/23 Fantasy Premier League.

Alexander Isak (NEW) £6.7m

A home encounter with Tottenham Hotspur lifts the Swede’s prospects of more goals in Blank Gameweek 32.

Isak has scored five goals in his last six matches for Newcastle United since his recent return from injury.

He has also collected six bonus points to amass a team-leading 35 points across that run.

The underlying numbers show Isak’s huge influence on Newcastle's attack.

His totals of 17 shots and 13 shots in the box in his last six matches were both more than any team-mate.

Isak's 10 shots on target in that run were more than double any other Newcastle player and placed third among all forwards.

Spurs, meanwhile, visit St James’ Park in poor defensive form.

They are without a clean sheet in six attempts and have conceded three goals to both Southampton and AFC Bournemouth in their last four matches.

Newcastle’s subsequent schedule suggests Isak can play a key part in the run-in for managers in Fantasy.

After their match with Spurs, three of their subsequent four encounters score only two in the Fixture Difficulty Ratings (FDR).

Newcastle's GW33-36 matches
GW Opp. FDR GW Opp. FDR
33 EVE (A) 2 35 ARS (H) 4
34 SOU (H) 2 36 LEE (A) 2

All three of those opponents, Everton, Southampton and Leeds United, are among the bottom five sides in the league.

Starting with his home meeting with Spurs, Isak looks set for a productive period in Fantasy.
