A home encounter with Ipswich Town earns Everton duo Jake O’Brien (£4.5m) and Iliman Ndiaye (£5.2m) a call-up to the Scout Selection for Gameweek 35 of Fantasy Premier League.

Versatile defender O’Brien has started each of the Toffees’ last 14 matches. He is their joint top-scoring player in that spell, amassing 50 points, thanks to two goals and three clean sheets. 

Forward Ndiaye, meanwhile, can provide great value against the Tractor Boys, who have conceded at least two goals in four successive matches.

Crystal Palace’s Oliver Glasner (£0.8m) is picked as Assistant Manager, due to his potential to collect table bonus at home to Nottingham Forest.

FPL GW35 Scout Selection
David Raya (Arsenal) £5.6m

His extra potential for save points has helped the Arsenal goalkeeper amass 130 points this season, more than any of his defensive colleagues. Raya has a home fixture against an AFC Bournemouth side who have struggled in attack recently, scoring only two goals across their last three matches.

Josko Gvardiol (Man City) £6.3m

The defender's goal in Manchester City's FA Cup semi-final win over Forest last weekend was his sixth goal of the season. Gvardiol has three clean sheets and three bonus points over his last five league outings, underlining his many routes to returns at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Daniel Munoz (Crystal Palace) £5.3m

Crystal Palace’s wing-back offers huge all-round potential against Forest. Munoz has combined four goals and five assists with 10 clean sheets, showing why he can still prove a success even if the Eagles fail to keep out their visitors on Monday evening.

Jake O’Brien (Everton) £4.5m

An ownership of just 0.5 per cent marks O’Brien out as a huge differential in defence. 

Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) £13.8m

Although Liverpool have already won the league, their talisman is still chasing a number of personal accolades across the final four matches of 2024/25 and has plenty to play for. Salah was a big success in his previous meeting with his weekend hosts, Chelsea, claiming a goal, assist and 12 points back in Gameweek 8.

Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford) £8.1m

His form at the Gtech Community Stadium shows why Brentford’s talisman should be part of the captaincy conversation against Manchester United. Mbeumo is the second top-scoring player in home matches this season, earning 118 points, thanks to 11 goals and four assists. 

Jarrod Bowen (West Ham) £7.6m

The West Ham United star has stepped up his consistency, with two goals, two assists and just one blank across his last four appearances. Bowen faces a Tottenham Hotspur side who could be subject to heavy rotation as they play the first and second legs of their UEFA Europa League semi-final tie against Bodo/Glimt either side of the trip to London Stadium.

Leandro Trossard (Arsenal) £6.7m

The Belgian has started 14 of Arsenal’s last 15 league matches, with his domestic minutes improving due to their involvement in European competition. Trossard was the Gunners’ top performer in Double Gameweek 33, scoring three goals to collect 24 points.

Alexander Isak (Newcastle) £9.6m

Isak is the top-scoring forward in Fantasy, sitting on 198 points ahead of Newcastle United’s visit to Brighton & Hove Albion. His hosts’ recent defensive frailties suggests the Swede can smash through the 200-point barrier this weekend – Brighton have conceded at least two goals in each of their last six league matches.

Omar Marmoush (Man City) £7.6m

The Egyptian has proven a reliable performer in home matches since joining Man City in January. Indeed, Marmoush has produced ALL of his attacking returns this season - six goals and an assist - at the Etihad Stadium, averaging 7.3 points per match. 

Iliman Ndiaye (Everton) £5.2m

Since recovering from injury, the Senegal international has started each of Everton’s last four matches under David Moyes.
