"O'Reilly has become first-choice for Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, but Rayan Aït-Nouri's AFCON absence locks his spot in further. City's fixtures are very kind, and O'Reilly's numbers quietly suggest he's overdue a big return. Averaging 0.25 xGI per 90 minutes, he's posting attacking numbers you'd normally see in a midfielder, not a defender. Add in his consistent advanced positioning"
"It's baffling to see Thiago among the most sold forwards this week. Sure, some label him a "penalty merchant," but that overlooks just how consistent his open-play threat remains. Brentford are the best in the league at winning penalties, and Thiago's calmness on spot kicks only adds to his FPL appeal. He's in second place in the Premier League scoring charts, delivering elite level numbers and rarely blanks for too long. The upcoming run looks decent too, so selling now feels premature."
Form meets fixture chaos as AFCON absences and fixture swings create opportunities for early differentials in Fantasy Premier League. Five players are identified for Gameweek 17 based on starts, fixtures, and attacking metrics. O'Reilly has secured a first-choice role at Manchester City thanks to Aït-Nouri's AFCON absence and posts 0.25 xGI per 90 with advanced positioning and clean-sheet upside. Thiago combines open-play threat with penalty calmness, benefiting from Brentford's penalty-winning tendency and a favourable upcoming run. Semenyo's rising performance and a Burnley home match present clear short-term haul potential.
