<h2 style="text-align: left">Who are the Best FPL Midfielders For Gameweek 6?</h2>
<h2> 
Bruno Fernandes (£11.9m) – Manchester United</h2>
<h4>Fixture: Aston Villa (H)</h4>
Bruno Fernandes has four goals in five games with 6 Shots in the Box, 7 Shots on Target and an xG of 1.82. He has also created 11 Chances with 4 Big Chances an xA of 2.24.
Although he has overperformed with his goalscoring so far, he has been underperforming with his assists.
His stats are pretty much on par with this time last season.
Manchester United play Aston Villa in Gameweek 6. I can’t see the Villains causing them too many problems.
Dean Smith's side have actually been putting up decent defensive stats. They've only conceded 37 Shots in the Box (8th in the entire league), 15 Shots on Target (4th) and an xGC of 5.2 (4th).
However, with the likes of Bruno, Paul Pogba (£7.8m), Mason Greenwood (£7.7m), and Cristiano Ronaldo (£12.6m), I can't see Villa being able to contain them.
Moreover, they have scored the most goals so far (13). This includes 54 Shots in the Box (3rd), 32 Shots on Target (2nd), 15 Big Chances and an xG of 10.4 (3rd).
Manchester United are also the second favourites (37%) to score 2.5+ goals according to the bookmakers.
According to our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool</a>, Bruno is second amongst midfielders for most predicted points (6.0). The same goes for anytime returns (59%).

<h2>Mohamed Salah (£12.6m) – Liverpool</h2>
<h4>Fixture: Brentford (a)</h4>
The Egyptian seems to be on another level this season. In only five games, he has registered four goals and three assists.
As a result, Salah is the highest scoring player in the game with 50 points. He is currently averaging 10 points per game so this is the quickest he has ever reached the 50 point mark.
Salah has 18 Shots in the Box (2nd), 13 Shots on Target (1st), with an xG of 3.85 (1st). He has also created 14 Chances (4th), 2 Big Chances and accumulated an xA of 2.06 (3rd).
Liverpool face Brentford in Gameweek 6 in what could prove to be a tricky fixture.
The Bees have really stood out with their defensive numbers. They have only conceded 30 Shots in the Box (4th), 13 Shots on Target (2nd) and an xGC of 3.8 (2nd).
This only trails reigning Premier League champions Manchester City. Thomas Frank's men have kept three clean sheets (2nd) in five games.
However, they haven’t come up against a team with the calibre of attacking talent that Liverpool possess.
The Reds have been one of the best attacking sides and have managed 12 goals (2nd) with 87 Shots in the Box (1st), 44 Shots on Target (1st) and an xG of 14.6 (1st)
With the form Liverpool and Salah are in, I cant see Brentford keeping them out here. This is supported even further by the fact Liverpool are the favourites this week to score 2.5+ goals at 48%.
It’s also no surprise that Mohamed Salah is first this Gameweek for predicted points (6.8) according to our <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Points Prediction Tool</a>. He is also at 65% for anytime returns.

<h2>Raphinha (£6.5m) – Leeds United</h2>
<h4>Fixture: West Ham United (H)</h4>
Raphinha scored his second goal of the season last week. The Brazilian was very unfortunate not to have had more returns once more.
He has managed 5 Shots in the Box, 5 Shots on Target with an xG of 1.53. In terms of creativity,, he has made 10 Chances, 1 Big Chance and accrued an xA of 1.06.
Leeds United welcome West Ham United to Elland Road in Gameweek 6 in what promises to be a high scoring game with two very attacking sides.
Although West Ham have been really good going forward, they haven't been as good at the back. They have conceded 8 goals (16th), 41 Shots in the Box (13th) and an xGC of 6.3 (8th).
Both Raphinha and Leeds should have scored more last week. If they keep playing this way then more FPL returns are imminent for the Brazil international. His stats and output from last season show he can both score and create chances.
Also, the Leeds winger is nailed on for 90 minutes usually but was taken off early against Newcastle due to a minor injury before the game.
It looks as if he will be fine but it's something to monitor as the week progresses.

<h2>Said Benrahma (£6.4m) – West Ham United</h2>
<h4>Fixture: Leeds United (a)</h4>
The West Ham midfielder picked up his third goal of the season last Gameweek which now takes his total tally to three goals and two assists.
He has managed this with 4 Shots in the Box, 5 Shots on Target and an xG of 1.50 while also creating 7 Chances, 2 Big Chances and an xA of 1.30. 
The Algerian is looking great value at only £6.4m.
West Ham have been very attacking in their opening five games and are in the top five overall. They have scored 11 goals (3rd) with 49 Shots in the Box (4th), 27 Shots on Target (4th) and an xG of 9.9 (4th).
The Hammers come up against Leeds United in Gameweek 6 and this is always a good fixture for attacking assets of the opposing team.
Both sides have been good going forward so I can see this being another high scoring game. Leeds have conceded 62 Shots in the Box (20th), 35 Shots on Target (20th), 13 Big Chances (18th) and an xGC of 10.8 (19th).
These stats bode very well for Benrahma and I think West Ham will create a lot of chances in this game.
I feel the Algerian and Michail Antonio (£7.9m) are the best attacking assets for the Hammers. They're the ones who are most likely going to be involved in any goals. Benrahma already has a 45% Goal Involvement.

<h2>Ismaila Sarr (£6.1m) - Watford</h2>
<h4>Fixture: Newcastle United (H)</h4>
Ismaila Sarr has been a great asset for his owners so far this season. The Senegalese winger has managed 11 Shots on the Box (6th), 9 Shots on Target (2nd), and an xG of 2.75 (6th). He has also created 9 Chances with an xA of 0.83.
At only £6.1m, these stats are incredible and he is looking like an absolute steal right now. He scored 13 goals and amassed 10 assists for Watford last season in the Championship.
In the 2019/20 season, he scored five goals and made seven assists. This was in only 22 starts for the Hornets so he's a proven Premier League player.
Watford come up against Newcastle United at home in Gameweek 6 which looks to be their best fixture to date. The Toons have been pretty dire at the back this season, conceding 13 goals (19th), 52 Shots in the Box (14th), 33 Shots on Target (19th) with an xGC of 12.4 (20th).
Newcastle's defensive frailties look really promising for Watford. Sarr has undoubtedly been their talisman in this campaign so far.
He is their best player and is posting the most impressive stats for them. As things stand, he has been involved in half of their goals.
Following Troy Deeney's move to Birmingham City and Joao Pedro (£5.4m) being injured, Sarr is very likely to be the <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/premier-league-set-piece-takers/">number one penalty taker</a> too.
