<h2 style="text-align: left;">The Best FPL Midfielders for Gameweek 23</h2>
<h3>Double Gameweek 23 Possibility</h3>
At the time of writing, no fixtures have been rearranged for Gameweek 23. Aston Villa are the likeliest to get a Double Gameweek and they will play one of Burnley or Leeds United which means one of them would also have a Double Gameweek if the rearrangement transpires.
See the latest possible fixture schedule below or check out our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-blank-double-gameweek-guide-2021-22/">FPL Double Gameweek Guide</a> where you can see the predicted probability of each scenario in more detail.
<h3></h3>
<h3>Diogo Jota (£8.4m) – Liverpool</h3>
Fixture: Crystal Palace (a)
Diogo Jota has so far scored an impressive 10 goals and two assists with 53 Shots in the Box (2nd), with an xG of 10.06 (2nd). He has also created 29 Chances with an xA of 4.92 (7th).
With Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane competing in the AFCON, he is still nailed to start for Liverpool.
The Reds come up against Crystal Palace (a) in Gameweek 23 who have conceded 31 goals (13th) with an xGC of 26.6 (6th). They are a decent side defensively overall but are very likely not going to keep this Liverpool side out.
Jurgen Klopp’s men have scored 55 goals (1st) with an xG of 54.1 (1st). They are the best side in the league statistically and they showed last week they could still score even without Salah and Mane as they ran out 3-0 winners against Brentford.
Jota was quite unfortunate not to get anything in that game also with 6 Shots in the Box and an xG of 0.73.
Again I don’t see them struggling to score here and even the bookies have them as the second favourites to score 2.5+ goals (37%) this week.
Liverpool will create plenty of chances in this game for sure and Jota is very likely to get a fair few of them. He is actually the second favourite to score at anytime (42%) amongst midfielders according to our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool</a> and also fifth for predicted points (5.5).

<h3>Kevin De Bruyne (£11.9m) – Manchester City</h3>
Fixture: Southampton (a)
Kevin De Bruyne now has six goals and one assist in 11 starts.
He has 20 Shots in the Box with an xG of 2.82 and has also created 45 Chances with an xA of 4.86. He has four goals and one assist in the last six games and has also started all of them.
Manchester City travel to St. Marys to take on Southampton in Gameweek 23.  The Saints have conceded 33 goals (15th) with an xGC of 33.4 (16th). They are in the bottom five when it comes to the defence so this could be a long night for Ralph Hassenhuttl’s team.
Especially seeing as the Citizens have scored 54 goals (2nd) with an xG of 51.0 (2nd) and have netted 21 times in their last six league games. Only Liverpool have better attacking stats than them over the season.
City are the clear favourites to score 2.5+ goals (50%) in Gameweek 23 and De Bruyne is sure to be involved again. He can both score and assist and is underperforming massively on his assists this season also.
Our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Price Prediction Tool</a> has Kevin as the highest predicted points scorer (7.2) overall for Gameweek 23 and he is also at 67% for anytime returns.

<h3>Gabriel Martinelli (£5.4m) – Arsenal</h3>
Fixture: Burnley (H)
Gabriel Martinelli has managed a very impressive four goals and three assists in only 9 starts for Arsenal. He has 21 Shots in the Box with an xG of 3.53 and has also created 18 Chances with an xA of 2.00.
His underlying numbers are immense, especially at his cheap price of £5.4m.
The Brazilian looks to have earned his place as a first-team starter under Mikel Arteta starting the last seven games.
Arsenal have a very kind fixture in Gameweek 23 as they take on Burnley. The Clarets have conceded 27 goals (8th) with an xGC of 29.0 (9th). They have had an unprecedented five games postponed this season though, so their defensive numbers don’t tell the full picture. They have only three clean sheets this season also.
The Gunners have scored 33 goals (5th) with an xG of 32.5 (5th) and are the fourth favourites to score 2.5+ goals (27%) in Gameweek 23 according to the bookmakers.
Martinelli has played a big part in their current good run and will no doubt score very well over the season judging by his stats, if he is given the minutes.
Our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Price Prediction Tool</a> really likes him this week as he is actually the second highest for predicted points (7.1) overall and also the favourite amongst midfielders to score anytime (45%).
<div id="attachment_42456" style="width: 823px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-42456" class="size-full wp-image-42456" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Gabriel-Martinelli-Stats.jpg" alt="Gabriel Martinelli Stats. best budget midfielders gameweek 23" width="813" height="657" />

<h3>Raphinha (£6.5m) – Leeds United</h3>
Fixture: Newcastle United (H)
Raphinha has eight goals and two assists this season in 18 starts. He has 21 Shots in the Box with an xG of 5.68 and has also created 43 Chances with an xA of 4.62. The Brazilian has been fantastic value this season.
Leeds United have one of their most favourable fixtures of the season in Gameweek 23 as they welcome Newcastle United to Elland Road. The Toon have conceded 43 goals (19th) with an xGC of 39.4 (20th). They really are poor at the back and Leeds will be strong favourites against Eddie Howe's team.
The Whites haven’t hit the heights of last season yet and have struggled due to injuries. They have scored 24 goals (14th) with an xG of 27.8 (9th). They do still play in their usual attacking manner and they also come up against a manager in Howe who likes to play the same way.
This of course bodes well for Raphinha's chances of attacking returns this week. He has a Goal Involvement of 43% so far and is the clear talisman for Marcelo Bielsa.
In the absence of Patrick Bamford he has filled the void to an extent and is their top goal scorer. He has also created the most chances for them and has the highest xA.
Raphinha is on the majority of <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/?post_type=post&amp;p=11173">set-pieces</a> also which always increases the chances of attacking returns.
Our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool</a> ranks him as the third highest predicted points scorer overall (6.5) for Gameweek 23 also.
<div id="attachment_42457" style="width: 820px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-42457" class="size-full wp-image-42457" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Raphinha-Stats.jpg" alt="Raphinha Stats. best gw23 midfielders" width="810" height="651" />

<h3>Bruno Fernandes (£11.7m) – Manchester United</h3>
Fixture: West Ham United (H)
At the time of writing, Bruno Fernandes has seven goals and three assists with 18 Shots in the Box and an xG of 3.99. He has also created 57 Chances with an xA of 5.45 (3rd). He has been nowhere near as good as last season but still very capable of big hauls as we have seen.
In his full debut season, Bruno finished as the highest scoring player in the game with an impressive 244 points. He managed a colossal 32 attacking returns - 18 goals and 14 assists
Manchester United welcome West Ham United to Old Trafford in Gameweek 23. The Hammers have conceded 30 goals (12th) with an xGC of 31.4 (13th). They have had a decent season so far as they sit 4th in the league but they have been conceding as of late.
This is likely due to injuries to first-choice centre backs, Angelo Ogbonna and Kurt Zouma and they have also had injuries to Vladimir Coufal and Aaron Cresswell. With the centre backs still absent this will of course give a huge advantage to United.
The Red Devils have scored 32 goals (6th) with an xG of 32.1 (6th) and although this will not be an easy game for them, I can see them scoring a few with the attacking players they possess.
Bruno Fernandes is on <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/?post_type=post&amp;p=11173">free kicks and corners</a> so has many avenues to points and it’s not surprising he had a Goal Involvement of 45% for them last season.
The Portuguese is also ranked at fourth for predicted points (5.5) amongst midfielders according to our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool.</a>
<div id="attachment_42458" style="width: 819px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-42458" class="size-full wp-image-42458" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Bruno-Fernandes-Stats.jpg" alt="Bruno Fernandes Stats. gw23 best players" width="809" height="655" />
