Each week, we will help Fantasy Premier League Draft managers prepare their squads for the Gameweek ahead.

The Gameweek 6 deadline for waivers, which allows you to swap players, is Friday 21 September at 11:30 BST.

FPL Draft experts Rotoworld check out the Fantasy potential of some top-performing players from Gameweek 5.

Nicolas Otamendi (MCI)

The Argentinian (pictured above) claimed a clean sheet in his first start of the season in a 3-0 win over Fulham. Don't be fooled, though, he still appears to be fourth choice in central defence for Manchester City and is unlikely to secure a regular role.

Andriy Yarmolenko (WHU)

Handed a first start away to Everton, he fired two goals in West Ham United's 3-1 win. But we're putting it down to the Toffees' defensive frailties and reckon the Ukrainian will struggle to keep on delivering.

Olivier Giroud (CHE)

He returned 10 points, thanks to two assists, in his first start for Chelsea. Giroud looks a good bet to remain ahead of rival Alvaro Morata and should be targeted if you are keen to freshen up your forward line.

Matt Doherty (WOL)

An assist and clean sheet helped the Irishman to 12 points at home to Burnley. Along with fellow wing-back Jonny, Doherty's raids down the flank can make it worth bringing him in.

Rui Patricio (WOL)

This coming weekend against Manchester United isn't particularly appealing but he can be a great option with the fixtures Wolverhampton Wanderers have in the subsequent four Gameweeks.

Wayne Hennessey (CRY)

If you need a one-Gameweek goalkeeper solution, the Crystal Palace stopper is a solid bet at home to Newcastle United.
