<h2>Best FPL players for Gameweek 15</h2>
<h3>Erling Haaland (£14.9m) - Manchester City</h3>
Fixture: Sunderland (H) 
Haaland has reached 15 goals and three assists for the season and with every passing gameweek, he reinforces his status as the standout FPL captaincy option almost every week.
This fixture should heavily favour Pep Guardiola's side, even though the Black Cats have been respectable defensively. 
City lead the league for expected goals (xG), big chances created and shots in the box and Haaland is unsurprisingly at the centre of everything. 
His goal involvement remains the highest in the league (56%) and his ability to haul against any opponent means he will be the overwhelming captain choice again. 
Haaland is the favourite to score at any time (65%) and it's no surprise he is the clear front runner according to <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI</a> this week (7.7 points).

<h3>Bruno Fernandes (£9.0m) - Manchester United</h3>
Fixture: Wolves (A) 
Fernandes is one of the standout midfield picks this week as United travel to bottom-of-the-table Wolves.
Wolves have conceded the most goals and also have the sixth worst expected goals conceded (xGC) in the league, making this the ideal fixture for a creator like Fernandes. 
Fernandes carries a proven blend of goals, creativity and set-piece threat. He remains first choice for penalties, corners and direct free-kicks. 
His underlying metrics consistently match what you see on the pitch - a high volume of key passes and involvement in almost all of United’s attacking phases. He is also always within a chance of getting <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-defcon-points-watch">defensive contribution</a> points too. 
Fernandes feels like one of the safest midfield options for Gameweek 15. He has both haul potential and security of minutes - something not easily found at this time of the season. 
<a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI</a> ranks him as the fourth highest predicted scorer (6.0 points) for Gameweek 15. 
Given the short turnaround to Gameweek 15, this article has been written before United's match against West Ham, so make sure the Portuguese international comes through unscathed.

<h3>Phil Foden (£8.2m) - Manchester City</h3>
Fixture: Sunderland (H) 
Foden has been in electric form, scoring four goals in his last two matches and firmly re-establishing himself as one of City’s most influential players.
His underlying numbers back this up and when he's on this sort of form, surely he carries on getting starts?
He has started every game since Gameweek 4 and after Haaland has played the most minutes of the City attackers. 
While rotation is always a threat at City, his current form and importance to the team mean he is far less likely to be benched.
 Guardiola has frequently trusted Foden in games where City need control and Sunderland at home fits that pattern. 
City are the favourites to score 2.5-plus goals (52%) and Foden is at 30% to score at any time, which bodes well for his points potential this week.

<h3>Nick Woltemade (£7.4m) - Newcastle</h3>
Fixture: Burnley (H) 
If you are looking for the perfect combination of form, value and fixture, look no further than Woltemade.  
The Magpies take on Burnley, which is arguably the best fixture of the season. 
The Clarets rank in the bottom two for goals conceded, shots in the box and xGC. 
They concede big chances at a remarkable rate and very few teams have struggled more defensively over the first 14 gameweeks. 
Woltemade already has five goals and two assists this season and has consistently passed the eye test, with high involvement in Newcastle’s build-up and good final-third decision making.  
With his minutes secure and the fixture as good as it gets, he is one of the best players to own this week. 
The German international is at 46% (third) to score at any time in Gameweek 15 and Newcastle are the second favourites to score 2.5-plus goals (45%).

<h3>Danny Welbeck (£6.6m) - Brighton</h3>
West Ham (H)
Welbeck feels like one of the most overlooked but high-upside picks for the gameweek.  
Brighton face West Ham, who have been one of the league’s weakest defences so far, conceding the second most goals (27) with the second worst xGC (21.9). 
Welbeck is expected to come back into the 11 after starting on the bench in Gameweek 14 - and crucially, he should be the first-choice penalty taker too. 
With seven goals already this season, he has exceeded expectations and continues to offer excellent movement and finishing in a Brighton team who create plenty of opportunities. 
He won't get many better chances to add to his goals tally and the odds back that - he is the second favourite (48%) to score at any time and Brighton are the third favourites to score 2.5-plus goals (36%).
