FPL GW24 Tips - Best players to target & captaincy picks

The 2022/23 Premier League season is entering its twenty-fourth round of fixtures and things are really hotting up in Fantasy now.

This weekend will see Newcastle take on Liverpool in a vital top-four clash, whilst Arsenal and Manchester City will continue their title charges.

So, we're providing you with the best players to target for Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 24.

Please note, the GW24 Deadline is on Saturday, 18 February at 6am ET / 11am GMT.

GW24 fixtures

The Premier League's next round of fixtures is as follows:

Saturday, 18 February

Aston Villa v Arsenal

Brentford v Crystal Palace

Brighton v Fulham

Chelsea v Southampton

Everton v Leeds

Nott'm Forest v Man City

Wolves v Bournemouth

Newcastle v Liverpool

Sunday, 19 February

Man Utd v Leicester

Spurs v West Ham

Forwards

Owned by just 1.4% of FPL managers, Chelsea's Joao Felix (£7.5m) is a great option for Gameweek 24 and beyond.

Despite Chelsea's poor form, the Portugal international has impressed massively in the two matches he has played.

Following his return from suspension, Felix played 90 minutes, scored one goal and picked up three bonus points against West Ham.

The Blues will face 20th-place Southampton in GW24, who have lost their last three matches, scoring just one goal in that time.

Spurs host West Ham in GW24, with Harry Kane (£11.8m) looking to score against a side that has kept just one clean sheet in their last ten league matches.

Whether Erling Haaland (£12.2m) will be fit for Manchester City's clash with Nottingham Forest remains to be seen.

Midfielders

If the City goal machine is deemed unfit to start, you may want to look to the other side of Manchester for your best captaincy option.

Marcus Rashford (£7.4m) has only blanked once in the past nine gameweeks, scoring eight goals and amassing 74 points in that time period.

Manchester United host Leicester in GW24 who have failed to keep a clean sheet since way back in GW16.

Riyad Mahrez (£7.8m) has continued his fantastic run of form, having netted another goal and picked up an assist against Aston Villa last time out.

Dejan Kulusevski (£7.9m) could prove to be a great buy if you can't afford Harry Kane as Spurs come up against West Ham (H), Wolves (A), Nottingham Forest (H), Southampton (A) and Bournemouth (H) within their next eight GWs.

Kaoru Mitoma (£5.3m) offers great value in the midfield and will face newly promoted Fulham in GW24, although it is important to note that Brighton have a blank gameweek in GW25.

Defenders

Like Mitoma, Brighton's Pervis Estupinan (£4.6m) is in fine form and is definitely worth considering in the long term.

The left-back has three assists and 28 points over the course of the last four gameweeks.

Max Kilman (£4.3m) is a great rotational option for the mid to long-term in Fantasy.

Wolves have kept two clean sheets in their last four outings and Kilman has played the full 90 minutes in every single one of their PL matches this season.

Wolves host a Bournemouth side in GW24 that has lost five of their past seven PL matches, scoring just two goals in that time.

James Tarkowski (£4.2m) offers a cheap avenue into Sean Dyche's solid Everton defence.

The Toffees host Leeds in GW24 followed by a double gameweek and then matches against Nottingham Forest and Brentford.
