Gameweek 8 of Fantasy Premier League has come to an end, marking just over 20% of the season completed.
Few would have predicted the Premier League table to look quite like it does at this stage, and these unexpected developments are giving FPL managers plenty to think about as they prepare for the weeks ahead.
In this FPL fantasy analysis, we will provide free FPL gameweek 9 tips, and we’ll take a closer look at one striker who’s capturing everyone’s attention, along with another forward who started the season strongly but is now being transferred out in large numbers.
We’ll also highlight a defender who continues to impress with his consistency, compare two highly attacking midfield options to see who comes out on top, and review the top five players for both expected goal involvements (xGI) and defensive contributions heading into Gameweek 9.
