Gameweek 27 is set to be an interesting few days for FPL managers across the globe.

With Liverpool and Chelsea's assets rendered useless thanks to the pesky Carabao Cup final on Sunday, you may be wondering which players to sign on Fantasy Premier League this week.

Never fear. As always, 90min is here to provide the best FPL tips around...


1. Joao Cancelo (£7.1m)

After a few underwhelming weeks it could be time for you to throw your weight back behind one of the triumphs of the FPL season so far.

Cancelo has already bettered his 2020/21 points total this campaign, and it's only February.

Next on the fixture list for City is Everton – hardly intimidating opposition. Don't be surprised to see him register a clean sheet and a goal or an assist. Maybe all three if you're lucky.

2. Armando Broja (£5.5m)

Searching for a properly cheap forward option this week? Look no further than Armando Broja.

Tipping the scales at just £5.5m, the Albanian is all but certain to start against struggling Norwich and Southampton are in flying form of late.

You get the feeling that Broja will only get better as the season draws to its conclusion, too.

3. Dejan Kulusevski (£6m)

All signs point to Dejan Kulusevski being a regular starter for Tottenham until the end of the season.

Considering that, £6m is more than a reasonable price to pay for his services. All it takes is a couple of goals and assists – which seems likely – and you will have got your money's worth.

Spurs' opponents this week, Leeds, have proved very accomodating to opposition forwards this campaign as well.

4. Conor Gallagher (£6.2m)

After some time on the sidelines due to injury Conor Gallagher announced his return to the FPL scene with a terrific display against Watford in midweek.

Next on the agenda for Palace is Burnley. Although the Clarets are bang in form, Gallagher will be confident of getting his name on the scoresheet again.

There were goals when the two sides last met too, with Christian Benteke bagging a brace in a 3-3 draw. We wouldn't recommend getting the Belgian in though...

5. Wout Weghorst (£6.5m)

Wout Weghorst has had a transformative effect at Turf Moor since arriving at Burnley during the January transfer window.

He's already got a very respectable 23 FPL points to his name but this could be when he properly arrives as a must-have asset.

Burnley have a double gameweek for one and he is certain to start both games. Palace and Leicester do not exactly boast the strongest defences in the division too. All of this bodes very well for Weghorst owners this week.

6. Bernardo Silva (£7.3m)

We are always shocked at how little Bernardo Silva costs on FPL, considering he is one of the best midfielders on the planet.

If he is not already counted among your ranks this week might be the time to snap him up.

He put Sporting to the sword last week and it is easy to imagine him dancing through Everton with absolute ease.
