Top Fantasy Premier League Picks – Gameweek 31

Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 31 comes with a midweek deadline. The final game of Gameweek 30 took place on Sunday, just two days ago, and yet another week of Premier League action is upon us again. Given the fact that top-of-the-table Liverpool plays bottom-of-the-table Sheffield United this week, it comes as no shock that most players in this article play for Liverpool. This article features some of the best captain picks and differentials for Gameweek 31 of the Fantasy Premier League.

Top Captain Picks For Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 31

Mohamed Salah played the entire game for the first time since Gameweek 20. The last time he played 90 minutes was against Newcastle in January. Salah finally made his much-awaited full return to fitness against Brighton. He marked this appearance by scoring the winner for Liverpool and helping them win the game 2-1. Salah plays against Sheffield United this week, who are at the bottom of the Premier League table. This will be the perfect game for Salah to find his form again, and he will most likely return a massive tally of points this week.

While Mohamed Salah is the clear favourite to get the captaincy band this week, if for some reason you do not own Salah or want to go for a differential captain in Gameweek 31, Bukayo Saka is your second-best option. Other than the fact that the winger has been in amazing form since Gameweek 20, he also plays against Luton Town this week. Luton has a very open defence, and given how Arsenal have been playing recently, they will find it very easy to carve openings into Luton’s defence. This is a very favourable fixture for Saka, and he can end up hauling this week.

Alexander Isak

Alexander Isak is another player who can be considered as a captain pick this week. Isak returned from injury with a blast for Newcastle United. He has four goals and one assist in his last three games for them. He plays Everton in Gameweek 31, and he hopes that he can continue his goal-scoring form against The Toffees. If he ends up playing how he has in recent weeks, it will not be surprising if he finds his name on the score sheet multiple times. This makes Alexander Isak a very good option to captain in Gameweek 31 of Fantasy Premier League.

Cole Palmer

🚨🎙️| Mauricio Pochettino praises Cole Palmer after his brace against Burnley:

🗣️ "From day one, he has taken responsibility [said Pochettino]. In terms of penalties and in the game. When the team is struggling to find solutions, he wants to take the ball."#CFC | #COYB |… pic.twitter.com/vPFt0vpAww

— A Stamfordbridge Too Far (@chelseatoofar) April 1, 2024

Cole Palmer has been having an outstanding season. He has 13 goals and nine assists in the Fantasy Premier League this season. This makes him one of the most valuable assets to own in this year’s Fantasy Premier League. While Chelsea plays Manchester United in Gameweek 31, Palmer fans may be tempted to captain him this week. This is because the English midfielder has three goals and two assists in his last three games and will most likely continue this form against United. The Red Devils did not look at their best against Brentford, and if the same team turns up against Chelsea, it will not be surprising if Palmer hauls against Manchester United.

Son Heung-min

Son Heung-min has recently been in quite some form for Tottenham Hotspurs. He has three goals and two assists in his last four games. Son plays West Ham in Gameweek 31. The Hammers have conceded seven goals in their last three games. They have looked very shaky at the back recently, and if this continues, Son may end up returning massively against them. This makes him a very good captain pick for Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 31.

Top Differentials For Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 31

Caoimhin Kelleher (6.6% Ownership)

Caoimhin Kelleher is owned by just 6.6% of Fantasy Premier League despite Alisson Becker being out of action since Gameweek 24. Alisson is not expected to return to action before mid to late April, which means Kelleher is a very good, cheap alternative until then. Liverpool play Sheffield United in Gameweek 31, and it is very likely that they will keep a clean sheet against Sheffield United.

Harvey Barnes (1.2% Ownership)

From 3-1 down to a 4-3 win! 🤯

Harvey Barnes scored two goals in just 23 minutes against West Ham last week. With Miguel Almiron suffering from an injury, Barnes is likely to start this week, making him a very lucrative option for Fantasy Premier League players. At just 1.2% ownership, Barnes can really help the players jump up the ranks in Gameweek 31.

Gabriel Jesus (2.6% Ownership)

Gabriel Jesus made his first start since Gameweek 22 against Manchester City in Gameweek 30. He is expected to continue starting for Arsenal, and at 2.6% ownership, he can turn out to be a fantastic differential. Arsenal have been amazing while attacking this season, and with Jesus back, they will only get better. Gabriel Jesus is known for getting very involved in the play, and it will not be surprising if he ends up hauling against Luton Town in Gameweek 31.

Alexis Mac Allister (4.1% Ownership)

Alexis Mac Allister has two goals and four assists in his last five games in the Premier League. The Liverpool midfielder seems to have been unlocked ever since Endo has started playing comfortably in midfield. Endo playing behind him gives Mac Allister extra license to go forward and attack, which he did not have before. This has seen him get more involved in Liverpool’s attacks. He is owned by just 4.1% of Fantasy Premier League owners and can help the owners jump up the ranks in Gameweek 31.

Rodrigo Muniz (9.0% Ownership)

🇧🇷Rodrigo Muniz has 8 goals and an assist in his last eight #PremierLeague matches.

He might be the most in-form striker on the planet.

Rodrigo Muniz is currently one of the most in-form strikers in the Premier League. The striker has eight goals and one assist in his last eight Premier League games. He is putting out numbers that no other striker in the league has been able to put out. This is not even just for a couple of games. The striker has been performing for a long time now and hopes he can continue his form against Nottingham Forest in Gameweek 31. If he ends up playing as he has recently, it will not be a shock to see him haul against Nottingham Forest this week.
