FPL tips and team of week 10 – captain Mohamed Salah this week, pick Bukayo Saka and Rayan Ait-Nouri

Matz Sels, Nottingham Forest, keeper, £4.6m – home to West Ham

The Belgian is on a nice run of form – with a surprise assist and a clean sheet in his past two games.

Forest are still top five in most defensive stats and have conceded just seven goals – the second-lowest total in the league.

At home and with clean sheets in general at a premium, Sels makes sense.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Liverpool, defender, £7m – home to Brighton

Last week, just three of 20 teams kept a clean sheet. The week before it was five – thanks in part to a 0-0 draw between Aston Villa and Manchester United.

In that context, picking the most attacking defensive asset in a home game is a simple choice, despite Brighton posing a decent forward threat.

Alexander-Arnold is still miles ahead of any other defender in expected assists (3.05) and has just one. If you believe in those figures regressing to the mean – and I do – then “he’s due”.

Rayan Ait-Nouri, Wolves, defender, £4.6m – home to Crystal Palace

A very popular FPL pick at the moment and one flagged as a player to watch in this column three weeks ago.

Super attacking and budget friendly, Ait-Nouri has scored with three of his five shots on target and now has a run of fixtures where he could muster up a clean sheet to go with everything else.

Leif Davis, Ipswich, defender, £4.5m – home to Leicester City

Looking at this week’s fixtures, it is hard to predict a clean sheet. So in comes another attacking full-back at home.

We’ve talked about Davis’ attacking stats before – he had a superb season in the Championship in 2023-24 and has a couple of assists already this time around.

Ipswich should be on the front foot, at home against relegation rivals, so expect plenty of attacking positions from Davis.
