Premier League Fantasy Picks: Round 4

Premier League Fantasy Picks: Round 4

Round 4 is up next for Sofascore Fantasy Premier League, with the deadline landing tomorrow. Three rounds of the new season are now in the books, and the form guide is starting to take real shape — Cody Gakpo, Morgan Rogers and João Pedro have all been among the standout performers in the game over the last month, while Arsenal’s Ben White continues to be one of the best-value picks around at his price point.

On the fixture side, looking at the next five rounds, Arsenal have the kindest run in the league by a distance, with Manchester City, Chelsea, Newcastle and Liverpool rounding out a group of five clubs whose schedules all look considerably easier than average heading into October.

Here is our full 15-man squad for Round 4 — 2 goalkeepers, 5 defenders, 5 midfielders and 3 forwards — assembled for €99.4M, comfortably inside the €100M budget cap, and without a single player parked purely to gather dust on the bench.

Arsenal’s run stands out clearly — a trip to Sunderland that’s rated as one of the easier away days of the round, followed by four more fixtures that all look manageable on paper. Manchester City, Chelsea, Newcastle and Liverpool are not far behind, which is exactly why all five feature below.

GOALKEEPERS

David Raya — ARSENAL at SUNDERLAND

€6.6M, owned by 28.8%. Raya remains the most-selected goalkeeper in the game, in good form of late, and gets a favourable trip to Sunderland this week backed by the best fixture run in the league.

James Trafford — LEEDS UNITED at NEWCASTLE UNITED

€4.6M, owned by 11.2%. Rather than a backup who never plays, Trafford remains Leeds’ undisputed No.1 as they push to establish themselves back in the top flight, and he’s continued to pick up save points at a healthy clip through the opening rounds.

DEFENDERS

Joško Gvardiol — MANCHESTER CITY at MAN UTD

€6.8M, owned by 17.4%. One of the form defenders in the entire league, Gvardiol continues to offer goal threat on top of his defensive numbers, backed by one of the kindest fixture runs in the division.

Ben White — ARSENAL at SUNDERLAND

€5.2M, owned by 4.5%. Comfortably the best-value defender in the game right now, White has been in excellent form and sits in a Gunners defence with the best fixture run in the league.

Lewis Hall — NEWCASTLE UNITED at LEEDS UNITED

€5.8M, owned by 11.1%. One of the form full-backs in the league this season, Hall gets a trip to Leeds this week backed by a Newcastle schedule that holds up well over the coming month.

John Egan — HULL CITY at CHELSEA

€4.2M, owned by 2.5%. A recognised first-choice centre-back for Hull, Egan has been one of the form defenders in the entire division regardless of price — a tough trip to Chelsea awaits, and a side fighting to stay up tends to spend long spells defending, the kind of volume that keeps producing defensive-contribution points regardless of the scoreline.

Semi Ajayi — HULL CITY at CHELSEA

€4.4M, owned by 5.9%. The other half of a Hull back line that has quietly been one of the form defensive units at the budget end of the game, Ajayi should be busy again this week against a strong Chelsea side.

MIDFIELDERS

Dominik Szoboszlai — LIVERPOOL vs FULHAM

€8M, owned by 21.6%. Szoboszlai continues to be a reliable source of returns for Liverpool, and gets a home fixture against Fulham that’s rated among the friendlier matchups of the round.

Martin Ødegaard — ARSENAL at SUNDERLAND

€7.8M, owned by 9.7%. The form midfielder in the entire league right now, Ødegaard captains a Gunners side with the best fixture run in the division.

Cody Gakpo — LIVERPOOL vs FULHAM

€7.7M, owned by 6.4%. One of the form players in the whole game over the last month, Gakpo gets a home date with Fulham that should suit a red-hot Liverpool attack.

Morgan Rogers — CHELSEA vs HULL CITY

€7.4M, owned by 16%. Rogers has been directly involved in goals for fun since his move, and gets about as favourable a fixture as the round offers at home to newly promoted Hull.

Anthony Elanga — NEWCASTLE UNITED at LEEDS UNITED

€5.3M, owned by 8.7%. One of the form wide players in the league at a bargain price, Elanga travels to Leeds for a fixture that’s rated as manageable for Newcastle.

FORWARDS

Erling Haaland — MANCHESTER CITY at MAN UTD

€12M, owned by 75.5%. The most expensive and most-owned player in the game needs no introduction, and City’s fixture list remains one of the kindest in the league.

João Pedro — CHELSEA vs HULL CITY

€7.9M, owned by 38.2%. The form forward in the entire division, João Pedro leads the line for a Chelsea side with a genuinely favourable fixture at home to newly promoted Hull.

Yoane Wissa — NEWCASTLE UNITED at LEEDS UNITED

€5.7M, owned by 12.4%. A cheaper route into Newcastle’s attack, Wissa has found good early-season form and travels to Leeds for a fixture that should suit his side.


Combined value of this 15-man squad: €99.4M, comfortably inside the €100M budget cap. Fancy building your own team for Round 4? Head over to Sofascore Fantasy and get your squad in before the deadline.
