Best Fantasy Premier League differentials predictions for this week - Gameweek 31
Defenders
Jeremie Frimpong (Liverpool, £5.7m)
With Liverpool facing a Brighton side that are always a bit exposed at the back due to their attacking play, a defender like Jeremie Frimpong who's extremely attacking is undoubtedly one of the best FPL differential picks for this week. This is one of those games which has a huge potential to provide you with attacking returns.
Michael Kayode (Brentford, £4.5m)
Michael Kayode is widely seen as one of the most promising Youngsters in the current Brentford side and also the Premier League. The Italian right-back even scored his first goal of the season last week against Wolves. Brentford face Leeds Premier League weekend, and they are another side that's quite weak in defense. Kayode has high chances to get a great return in this game.
Midfielders
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall (Everton, £5.1m)
Everton face Chelsea at home this EPL weekend, and based on current form of both clubs, there is an argument to be made that the Toffees could end up getting a result here. Thus, we have gone with Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who's had 2 direct goal contributions in his last 3 games. With Chelsea's defense in a disastrous form right now, he is a really attractive pick.
Alex Iwobi (Fulham, £6.4m)
Alex Iwobi is one of those players the majority of Fantasy Premier League players won't even think about, and yet for this Gameweek he could be one of those difference makers. Fulham have one of the best fixtures in Gameweek 31 with Burnley at home, making Iwobi, who already has 7 goal contributions this campaign, a really great differential pick.
Striker
Randal Kolo Muani (Tottenham Hotspur, £6.9m)
This is one of those picks no one might dare to do, unless you're that FPL player who's willing to take the biggest risks out there. Spurs have been showing signs of improvement in their past 2 games, and Kolo Muani in particular was fantastic in the UCL game against Atlético Madrid. With no Haaland and Viktor Gyökeres this week, Muani might be a risk worth taking.
Selecting the right FPL differentials for Gameweek 31 can be a smart and strategic way to climb the overall rankings while gaining an advantage over your rivals. Low-owned players with favourable fixtures, strong underlying stats, and good recent form often have the potential to deliver unexpected returns that can make a real difference. The differential options listed above offer a great opportunity to move away from the template and give your squad a unique edge.
It’s important to assess risk versus reward and consider how these picks fit into your overall team structure before making your final decisions. Timing also plays a key role, as choosing the right differential in the right Gameweek can significantly boost your momentum. If selected wisely, a strong Gameweek 31 differential could be the turning point that elevates your Fantasy Premier League score and helps you make meaningful progress in your rankings.
