<h2>FPL Gameweek 18 Best Players &amp; Formation</h2>
<p>To start with, I&#8217;ve selected the top five players in the <strong><a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions/">Prediction Tool</a></strong> for Gameweek 18, which comes in at a very affordable price.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-41655 size-large" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.51.05-1024x828.jpg" alt="best fpl team for Gameweek 18" width="1024" height="828" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.51.05-1024x828.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.51.05-300x243.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.51.05-768x621.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.51.05-1536x1243.jpg 1536w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.51.05-610x494.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.51.05-1080x874.jpg 1080w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.51.05.jpg 1592w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p>Despite failing to score in eight consecutive games, <strong>Michail Antonio (£7.9m)</strong> features as the attacker of choice, for a home game against Norwich. Antonio is ranked second among all forwards for key passes over the last four games, with seven.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s joined by <strong>Mohamed Salah (£13.1m)</strong>, who continues to excel this season. His away record is astonishing: ten goals and six assists, with not a single blank. He&#8217;s likely to be the most captained player once again.</p>
<p>They are joined by a trio of Manchester City players: <strong>Phil Foden (£8.0m), Raheem Sterling (£10.6m) and Joao Cancelo (£6.8m) </strong>with managers hoping for a repeat performance of the 7-0 demolition against Leeds United in midweek.</p>
<p>Sterling and Cancelo look poised for starts given their lack of involvement on Tuesday: Cancelo has five assists and nine clean sheets this season. Sterling has three goals and one assist from his last five starts.</p>
<p>Foden looked to be back to his best against Leeds United after ankle issues have hampered much of his season. He thrived in the false nine role, grabbing a goal and an assist. Encouragingly, he was fit enough to play the full 90 minutes.</p>

<h2>FPL Gameweek 18 Best Forwards</h2>
<p>We have gone with two <a href="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/best-fpl-forwards-for-gameweek-13-fantasy-premier-league-tips-2021-22/"><strong>forwards</strong></a> for our FPL Gameweek 18 team.</p>

<p><b>Ollie Watkins (£7.7m) </b>joins the strike force after his double digit haul against Norwich City last time out. He now has five goals this season and is the talisman of this Aston Villa side under Steven Gerrard.</p>

<h2>FPL Gameweek 18 Best Midfielders</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-41657 size-large" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.00-1024x581.jpg" alt="best fpl team for Gameweek 18" width="1024" height="581" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.00-1024x581.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.00-300x170.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.00-768x436.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.00-1536x872.jpg 1536w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.00-2048x1162.jpg 2048w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.00-610x346.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.00-1080x613.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p>With the budget tight after selecting the two expensive midfielders, <strong>Jarrod Bowen (£6.5m) </strong>and <strong>Gabriel Martinelli (£5.2m) </strong>join the five man midfield contingent.</p>
<p>Bowen will be looking to replicate the form he showed against Chelsea this month. He faces a Norwich City defence without a clean sheet in their last four games, conceding seven goals.</p>
<p>Martinelli has impressed since stepping up for Emile Smith Rowe when he was injured and now looks to have cemented his place, with two goals and two assists from his last five appearances.</p>

<h2>FPL Gameweek 18 Best Defenders</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-41658 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.09.jpg" alt="best fpl team for Gameweek 18" width="2266" height="1292" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.09.jpg 2266w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.09-300x171.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.09-1024x584.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.09-768x438.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.09-1536x876.jpg 1536w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.09-2048x1168.jpg 2048w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.09-610x348.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.09-1080x616.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 2266px) 100vw, 2266px" /></p>
<p><strong>It&#8217;s the usual suspects providing the consistency in defence, with Trent Alexander-Arnold (£8.2m) </strong>the highest scoring defender in the game this season. The 22-year-old forms part of a <strong>Liverpool</strong> defence who have kept the <strong>most clean sheets</strong> this season.</p>
<p>Chelsea&#8217;s <strong>Marcos Alonso (£5.7m) </strong>has continued to chip away at attacking returns and faces a Wolves defence who have scored just one goal in their last five games.</p>

<h2>FPL Gameweek 18 Best Goalkeepers</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-41659 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.18.jpg" alt="best fpl team for Gameweek 18" width="2270" height="1294" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.18.jpg 2270w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.18-300x171.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.18-1024x584.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.18-768x438.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.18-1536x876.jpg 1536w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.18-2048x1167.jpg 2048w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.18-610x348.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screenshot-2021-12-16-at-12.52.18-1080x616.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 2270px) 100vw, 2270px" /></p>
<p>With budget left for an expensive goalkeeper, it&#8217;s time for <strong>Emi Martinez (£5.5m) </strong>to get the nod, as we&#8217;ve already got a full quota of Manchester City players. He has kept five clean sheets this season, with the Aston Villa defence improving all the time.</p>
