<h2><strong>Best FPL differentials -</strong><strong> Gameweek 2</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>Riccardo Calafiori (£5.5m) - </strong><strong>Arsenal - 2.5%</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Leeds (H)</strong></p>
<p>Banking a clean sheet at Old Trafford on the opening weekend, Arsenal look once again to be the defensive horses to back this season.</p>
<p>No team kept more clean sheets than the Gunners last season, and with Arteta at the helm there is every chance that will be the case again in 2025/26.</p>
<p>While <strong>Gabriel </strong>and <strong>William Saliba </strong>will cost you £6m a piece in FPL, Calafiori offers a cut-price route into the Arsenal back four.</p>

<p>The Italy international scored the only goal of the game as his side came away with three points against Manchester United, with his early header contributing to a total of 13 points.</p>
<p>The assist from <strong>Declan Rice </strong>is worth taking note of, as the midfielder could be another strong pick this week with <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-2025-26-changes-defensive-contributions/">DefCons</a> now in his armoury too.</p>
<p>A single attacking return can lead to a haul of this kind for Arsenal's defenders, and as left-back Calafiori has the potential for open play returns as well as goals and assists from set-pieces.</p>
<p>While <strong>Miles Lewis-Skelly </strong>will provide competition for the spot, Calafiori came in for individual praise from his manager after Gameweek 1, with Arteta making specific reference to his attacking positioning.</p>
