What is an FPL Differential?
An FPL Differential is a player selected by a small percentage of managers, therefore is likely to make your team different to others in your mini-leagues, which can help you move up overall FPL rankings.

Upcoming Fixtures:
- Fulham (H)
- Leeds Utd (A)
- Newcastle (H)
With Wolves' favourable upcoming fixtures, and the Portuguese international set to slot into the attacking wing-back role, vacated by Doherty, Semedo could accumulate a serious points tally this season.
Sergio Reguilon (£5.5m)

Upcoming Fixtures:
- Man Utd (A)
- West Ham Utd (H)
- Burnley (A)
Reguilon is currently selected by only 0.2% of FPL managers, but we're expecting to see that number rise rapidly, as he'll be attacking down the left flank for Spurs whilst picking up points for clean sheets.

With West Ham's form seeming to have taken a positive turn, the Englishman could be worth a punt in midfield at only £6.3m.

Upcoming Fixtures:
- Crystal Palace (H)
