<h2 data-start="199" data-end="297">Best FPL Gameweek 2 Bench Boost team</h2>
<p>Playing the Bench Boost early has become one of the most popular strategies heading into this season, and it is easy to see why.</p>
<p>With many managers eyeing an early Wildcard to reshape the squad, getting rid of the Bench Boost in the opening couple of weeks means you never have to worry about funding a second goalkeeper or an eighth attacker later on.</p>
<p>You play the Bench Boost, take the points, Wildcard your way out of the heavy bench investment and get on with the season.</p>
<p>Gameweek 2 is a particularly appealing window given the fixtures some of the cheaper assets are sitting on, and this squad has been built to make the most of them.</p>
<p>The goalkeeping duo of <strong>Senne Lammens (£5.0m) </strong>and<strong> Carl Rushworth (£4.5m)</strong> covers Manchester United and Coventry respectively, with United playing Ipswich and Coventry hosting Hull at home in Gameweek 2 making Rushworth a very affordable and sensible inclusion.</p>
<p>Rather than loading up on expensive defenders, the backline is built around value.<strong> Cristhian Mosquera (£5.5m) </strong>and<strong> Riccardo Calafiori (£5.5m)</strong> provide the double Arsenal coverage, with the best defensive unit in the league behind them.</p>
