It’s time for another round of Premier League fixtures as we look at three players you should consider when picking your Fantasy Premier League team ahead of Gameweek 26.

As always, some notable fixtures that should be considered when making your decisions are Sunderland versus Manchester United, Aston Villa versus Liverpool, and Everton versus West Bromwich Albion.

Last week we selected Reds star Adam Lallana, Tottenham Hotspur defender Kevin Wimmer, and Southampton keeper Fraser Forster, with all three giving you decent points.

Lallana picked up a total of nine points after netting a goal, Wimmer managed to register his second clean sheet with seven points, while Forster has now gone five games without conceding, tallying another six.

Picking differentials will always be seen as a risk, but if your gamble does pay off, you’re bound to make up some room or even overtake the players ahead of you in your respective leagues.

So, whether you agree with our selections or not, here are three Fantasy Premier League differentials for you to consider ahead of Gameweek 26.

Jesse Lingard

First off, Manchester United winger Jesse Lingard (4.3 and owned by 1.8%) is slowly getting picked by a few Fantasy Premier League players, so he could be a good selection as his price is also bound to rise.

He registered eight points against Stoke City in Gameweek 24 and then another nine in his previous match against Chelsea as his side now travel to face a struggling Sunderland side. Due to his form, manager Louis van Gaal will surely select him for the role on the right wing heading into the match.

Emmanuel Adebayor

 

 

Crystal Palace January signing Emmanuel Adebayor (5.8 and owned by 0.4%) could be another interesting pick given that he looks to have regained his match fitness after featuring for 85 minutes in the 1-1 draw with Swansea City last weekend.

The striker is now in line to net his first goal for the Eagles when they host Watford this coming Saturday as a win would see them overtake their opponents in the table. Adebayor has been away from the game for quite some time, but could very well replicate his form when playing for former clubs Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur.

Aaron Lennon

Everton winger Aaron Lennon (5.6 and owned by 0.3%) will be a very good pick given that he has been on a good run of form lately, netting two and providing one assist from his previous two matches.

His recent performance has also seen him overtake Gerard Deulofeu in the pecking order as he played the full 90 minutes in his previous two matches. He scored a goal in the 3-0 win over Stoke City last weekend and could continue his form when his side host West Bromwich Albion this Saturday.
