Just six team selections of the season remain as Gameweek 33 races into view for Fantasy Premier League managers this midweek.

With the memory of last weekend's goal-ridden Sunday - which, for once, lived up to its super billing - still fresh, FPL users quickly have to turn their attention to the midweek round of matches taking place between Tuesday and Thursday.

A full set of ten fixtures have been portioned out across the coming days, with the all-important title playoff between Manchester City and Arsenal headlining the midweek action.

Here are the key forwards you can include to boost you FPL points this week.


Alexander Isak (£6.8m)

Alexander Isak may not have quite the same sprawling acres to skip through on Newcastle’s upcoming trip to Everton as he did while bagging a brace against Tottenham last weekend, but the Sweden international has hit a rich seam of form.

Among players with at least one top-flight start this season, only Erling Haaland (£12.2m) is averaging more goals per game than Isak.


Dominic Solanke (£5.6m)

What do Kevin De Bruyne (£12.1m), Phil Foden (£8.0m) and Dominic Solanke (£5.6m) all have in common? It's certainly not their price tag. They are the only three players to have registered a goal and an assist in as many as three different Premier League matches this season.

With Bournemouth making the journey along the south coast to relegation-stricken Southampton, Solanke may be able to bolster his tally this midweek.

Julio Enciso (£4.6m)

The latest gem unearthed in the mine beneath the Amex Stadium represents a cheap and chirpy option to pad out the forward line of your FPL team.

Evan Ferguson was the latest shiny new piece at the tip of Brighton's attack but a nagging injury for the Republic of Ireland international has opened up a gap which Julio Enciso seems hell-bent on filling with his unique brand of verve and vibrancy.


Michail Antonio (£7.0m)

As a teenager, AFC Wimbledon refused to pay Michail Antonio's £7 registration fee. A decade on, he may be a snip at £7.0m on FPL.

Starting consistently in a West Ham side that has struck upon a prolific purple patch, it may not be too late to reap the benefits of Antonio ownership with the Hammers poised to enjoy two matches in the same gameweek after hosting a Liverpool team that has floundered away from home this Wednesday.


When is the FPL Gameweek 33 deadline?

The midweek positioning of this gameweek may force a set of hurried FPL alterations during Tuesday's lunch break. The window for changes slams shut at the 18:00 GMT deadline, 90 minutes before Crystal Palace kick off against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux.
