<h2><strong>Best FPL players for Gameweek 4</strong></h2>
<h3>Viktor Gyokeres (£9.0m) - Arsenal</h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Nottingham Forest (H)</strong></p>
<p>Gyokeres continues to cement himself as a reliable forward option and this week’s home clash against Forest looks particularly appealing.</p>
<p>Forest’s backline has been shaky this season, struggling to keep clean sheets even against weaker opposition.</p>
<p>With penalty duties in his locker and guaranteed minutes, Gyokeres offers both safety and explosive potential.</p>
<p>Arsenal are a good attacking side and should score a few goals here. Right now, the Swedish international will be the focal point of the attack.</p>
<p>The Gunners are the second favourites to score 2.5+ goals (38%) too.</p>
<p>Gyokeres is the second favourite to score at any time (52%) and is the third highest predicted scoring forward (5.8 points) according to <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI</a>.</p>

<h3>Mohamed Salah (£14.5m) - Liverpool</h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Burnley (A)</strong></p>
<p>Liverpool face Burnley in Gameweek 4, a side who have looked fragile defensively and rank among the weakest teams in the league.</p>
<p>Salah is not only on penalties but is the undisputed talisman of the league’s most potent attack.</p>
<p>The Egyptian has already managed a goal and assist despite not being at his best.</p>
<p>He is nailed to start, on penalties and has both goals and assists in abundance. It’s one of the most favourable fixtures of the season for Arne Slot’s team.</p>
<p>The Reds are favourites to score 2.5+ goals (45%) in Gameweek 4 and Salah is also at a 50% to score at any time.</p>
<p>It’s no surprise <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI</a> ranks him as the highest predicted scoring player (8.2 points).</p>
<div id="attachment_74545" style="width: 850px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-74545" class="size-full wp-image-74545" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/playerstats-M.Salah-bordered-3.jpeg" alt="Mohamed Salah Stats" width="840" height="690" /></p>

<h3>Jean-Philippe Mateta (£7.5m) - Crystal Palace</h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Sunderland (H)</strong></p>
<p>Mateta is one of the best options for Gameweek 4.</p>
<p>With <strong>Eddie Nketiah</strong> still unavailable, his expected minutes looks great - and he comes up against newly promoted Sunderland at home.</p>
<p>This is arguably the best fixture he’ll get all season.</p>
<p>Add penalty duties into the mix and the upside here is huge. He scored 14 goals last season and found the net 16 times in the 2023/24 campaign, so is a proven player at this level.</p>
<p>Palace should score a few here and with <strong>Ismaila Sarr</strong> potentially injured, Mateta looks like their only route to goals right now.</p>
<p>He is at a very healthy 49% to score at any time and <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI</a> rates him too - the Frenchman is the third highest predicted scoring player (6.7 points) for Gameweek 4.</p>
<div id="attachment_74546" style="width: 850px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-74546" class="size-full wp-image-74546" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/playerstats-Mateta-bordered.jpeg" alt="Jean-Phillippe Mateta Stats" width="840" height="690" /></p>

<h3>Erling Haaland (£14.1m) - Manchester City</h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Manchester United (H)</strong></p>
<p>It’s impossible to talk about captaincy this week without mentioning Haaland.</p>
<p>United have been leaking chances and look vulnerable defensively, especially against teams with City’s attacking power.</p>
<p>Haaland is the league’s most lethal finisher and when he gets chances, he usually buries them.</p>
<p>City look to have a lot of the same issues they had last season but they have had no problems finding the back of the net.</p>
<p>On paper, this looks like it is going to be a high-scoring game.</p>
<p>Haaland is favourite to score at any time this week (53%) and <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI</a> has him as the second highest predicted scoring player (7.2 points).</p>
<p>The Norwegian is nailed to start, on penalties and should play the full 90 minutes too.</p>
<p>He is the focal point in a very good attacking side and will likely finish the season with the most goals in the league.</p>
<div id="attachment_74547" style="width: 850px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-74547" class="size-full wp-image-74547" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/playerstats-Haaland-bordered-2.jpeg" alt="Erling Haaland Stats" width="840" height="690" /></p>

<h3>Daniel Munoz (£5.5m) - Crystal Palace</h3>
<p><strong>Fixture: Sunderland (H)</strong></p>
<p>For those chasing upside in defence, it doesn't get much better than Munoz.</p>
<p>Listed as a defender but effectively playing as a winger, he offers threat at both ends of the pitch.</p>
<p>At home to Sunderland, there’s real potential for a clean sheet - and his attacking numbers suggest he could just as easily deliver an assist or even a goal.</p>
<p>If you want a defender with explosive potential, Munoz is the pick. He has already picked up an assist this season and scored four goals and assisted six in 2024/25.</p>
<p>Palace have looked great in defence too with two clean sheets in the first three and they are at 42% to keep a clean sheet (third highest) in Gameweek 4.</p>
<p>Munoz is also by far the highest predicted scoring defender (6.0 points) in Gameweek 4 according to<a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions"> Hub AI.</a></p>
<div id="attachment_74548" style="width: 850px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-74548" class="size-full wp-image-74548" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/playerstats-Munoz-bordered-1.jpeg" alt="Daniel Muñoz Stats" width="840" height="690" /></p>
