City v Chelsea: FPL Gameweek 20 Scout Report | OneFootball

The Scout's verdict is in for Gameweek 20 of Fantasy Premier League as City host Chelsea.

Pep Guardiola’s side welcome the Londoners to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday 4 January, with kick-off scheduled for 17:30 (UK).

We enter the fixture unbeaten across each of our previous nine matches, but we’ll be aiming to return to winning ways following our goalless draw with Sunderland last time out.

But the Blues will have to be at our best to do so against a Chelsea side who have lost just one of their last five matches.

All roads lead to an exciting clash this weekend and FPL managers will be keeping an eye on proceedings at the Etihad.

For the latest tips before Gameweek 20, read the latest Scout report below before Saturday 3 January’s 11:00 (UK) deadline.

CITY STAR

Jeremy Doku (£6.4m) is a great differential for Fantasy Premier League (FPL) manages ahead of Gameweek 20.

The winger returned from injury in the second half of City’s Gameweek 19 fixture against Sunderland. The midfielder had missed the previous three Premier League matches, however, before that he had been in a good run of form.

From Gameweek 11-15, Doku created a team leading 16 chances, of these four were big chances, which was also team leading. He also supplied 17 crosses, which only Phil Foden (£9.0m) bettered across the Man City team.

Doku also had 10 shots on goal in those matches, again this was only bettered by Foden and Erling Haaland (£15.1m).

ONE TO WATCH

Midfielder Cole Palmer (£10.4m) is opponents Chelsea’s most in form player. The England international has three attacking returns in the last four gameweeks since his return from injury.

DIFFERENTIALS

Elsewhere, Ollie Watkins (£8.6m) and Anthony Gordon (£7.4m) are two low-owned gems worth considering this gameweek.

Aston Villa’s Watkins has registered five goals, two assists and 42 points in his last six matches.

Meanwhile, Newcastle’s Gordon has retained in each of his last three home matches including two 10-pointers, tallying 26 points in three games.
