After the 10th gameweek of the Premier League, we’re already seeing a solid pattern emerging. Mohamed Salah is invaluable, Cristiano Ronaldo is proving to be inconsistent and Harry Kane is playing like a player who is upset he didn’t get a massive, mega-money move in the summer.

So while you may have Salah as a set-and-forget player in your fantasy football team, there will be players who you’ll be thinking of replacing with far more productuve fantasy points scorers.

But there’s no point following the crowd if you want to boost your overall ranking and chances of success, so here are three differentials we think you should be eyeing up ahead of this weekend’s deadline…

Patson Daka – Leicester City

With a goal and an assist in his last two Premier League outings, plus his four goal romp in the Europa Legaue, Daka is finally introducing himself to both Leicester fans and Premier League fans in general.

Jamie Vardy may have already scored seven Premier Legaue goals this season, making him the more obvious Leicester striker to pick for your team, Daka’s recent uptick in form should not go ignored.

The Foxes host Arsenal this weekend and will be confident of causing the Gunners some serious problems defensively, with Daka undoubtedly ready to be central to that threat.

Kurt Zouma – West Ham United

West Ham have started this season in the same manner they ended the last. David Moyes has transformed the Hammers both on and off the pitch, and the summer acquisition of Chelsea’s Kurt Zouma has only reinforced that fact.

They’ve kept clean sheets in both of their last two Premier League outings, against Everton and Tottenham – it’s four-in-a-row in all competitions – and Zouma was central to both of those shutouts, even winning the Man of the Match award in the home victory over rivals Spurs.

His experience and winning mentality that comes with playing in a Premier League and Champions League winning team is evidently rubbing off on his teammates, with the Hammers currently sitting in 4th in the Premier League.

They travel to Aston Villa this weekend in search for yet another clean sheet, but their threat from set-pieces also makes Zouma an interesting option in fantasy football. West Ham’s last two wins were both narrow 1-0 results, with both winning goals coming direct from corners. If they continue to be such a threat from these positions, it’s only a matter of time before Zouma gets his head on the end of one and returns a big week of fantasy football points.

Alexandre Lacazette

Now, this one might be a differential of all differentials, but we this could pay off if Arsenal’s last game is anything to go by.

Lacazette came off the bench to secure a late point for Arsenal against Crystal Palace, which led to widespread calls amongst the Gunners fanbase for him to start the next game. Mikel Arteta duly responded by playing the France international alongside Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang together from the start against Aston Villa, and the impact was superb.

Arsenal were emphatic 3-1 winners and Lacazette played an important role in that before coming off in the 68th minute. 

It was evidence that he and Aubameyang have a strong partnership and Arsenal are a completely different team when they’re on the pitch together, so don’t be surprised if Arteta continues to include him in his starting XI in the near future.
