Fantasy Premier League managers are assembling their squads before the international period, and as Wolves travel to Southampton this week, here are some players they may be considering.
The in-form option
Marshall Munetsi | Round points: 8 | Season points: 17
Marshall Munetsi’s first goal for Wolves last time out saw him top score on Fantasy Premier League too, despite being withdrawn at half-time. The Zimbabwean took eight FPL points home with him, having earned Wolves a point. Should he be fit and start, Munetsi could well be in an advanced role again at St Mary’s and is priced at just £5.0m. He got an assist on his last Premier League away outing at AFC Bournemouth.

Striking against the Saints
Pablo Sarabia | Price: £5.0m | Total points: 25
Pablo Sarabia’s biggest haul of the season came in the first Saints fixture at Molineux back in November. The Spaniard scored the opening goal in the 2-0 win, bringing in six FPL points. Sarabia came off the bench against Everton and impressed, so will be pushing for a start at St Mary’s.
Southampton’s point scorer
Joe Aribo | Price | £4.9m | total points: 65
Southampton’s top point earner this season comes from midfield and Joe Aribo. The Nigerian international has three goals to his name, with his latest coming against Ipswich Town last month, when he scooped ten points. Priced under £5m, the midfielder could provide a budget option to managers.
Challenge option
Chris Wood | Price: £7.3m | Total points: 172
Challenge players this week are assembling 7-a-side teams, rather than five. There is no budget for players, so the high point earners become options, naturally. Of the top five FPL players this season, Chris Wood has the most favourable-looking fixture, facing Ipswich Town, so will likely prove to be a popular pick.
