<h2>Best budget FPL forwards for £6.0m or less</h2>
<h3>Sam Greenwood (£4.2m)</h3>
<p>The Leeds forward is in 11.5% of teams, having been backed as the super-budget pick of choice at the start of the season.</p>
<p>He has made six appearances in the league, five from the bench, scoring one goal.</p>
<p>Regular game time has therefore been hard to come by, so Greenwood&#8217;s presence is likely to be as a third bench player in a two-up-top formation.</p>
<p>At £4.2m, Greenwood offers FPL managers a significant saving on other options, unlocking cash to invest elsewhere.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51359" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Sam-Greenwood.jpg" alt="" width="897" height="731" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Sam-Greenwood.jpg 897w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Sam-Greenwood-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Sam-Greenwood-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Sam-Greenwood-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Odsonne Edouard (£5.3m)</h3>
<p>Edouard tops the Hub&#8217;s <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">predicted points</a> charts for forwards costing £6.0m and under between Gameweek 17 and 20.</p>
<p>Crystal Palace play Fulham and Bournemouth first up, before the fixtures turn more challenging.</p>
<p>The former Celtic striker has three goals and two assists in 13 games, four of which have come via the bench.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51362" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Odsonne-Edouard.jpg" alt="" width="897" height="731" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Odsonne-Edouard.jpg 897w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Odsonne-Edouard-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Odsonne-Edouard-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Odsonne-Edouard-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Dominic Solanke (£5.8m)</h3>
<p>Solanke has three goals and five assists in 13 games for the Cherries, with his assist tally returning him more FPL points than teammate <strong>Kieffer Moore (£5.4m) </strong>who has scored four in 15.</p>
<p>His goal involvement percentage of 44% is the best of the regularly playing forwards priced at £6.0m and under.</p>
<p>Solanke is on penalties and is Bournemouth&#8217;s talisman.</p>
<p>The Cherries&#8217; <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-restart-fixtures-and-double-gameweeks">fixture run</a> is however one of the weakest post-restart.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51360" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Dominic-Solanke.jpg" alt="" width="897" height="731" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Dominic-Solanke.jpg 897w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Dominic-Solanke-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Dominic-Solanke-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Dominic-Solanke-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Bryan Mbeumo (£5.8m)</h3>
<p>With an expected goals (xG) tally of 4.74, Mbeumo leads the way in this price range.</p>
<p>He has three goals and one assist in his 15 games and has had the most shots among forwards in this category.</p>
<p>Mbeumo has had more shots in the box and on target than any of his rivals, while his seven big chances is bettered only by Nottingham Forest&#8217;s <strong>Taiwo Awoniyi (£5.7m) </strong>who is in and out of favour.</p>
<p>Brentford rank seventh on our fixture ticker between Gameweek 17 and 24.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51361" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Bryan-Mbeumo.jpg" alt="" width="897" height="731" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Bryan-Mbeumo.jpg 897w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Bryan-Mbeumo-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Bryan-Mbeumo-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Bryan-Mbeumo-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>One to watch: Julian Alvarez (£6.0m)</h3>
<p>The Argentine has had an excellent World Cup, forcing his way into the team at the expense of experienced forward Lautaro Martinez.</p>
<p>He has three goals in 12 in a Manchester City team which sits top of our fixture ticker between Gameweek 17 and 24. City are expected to comfortably score the most goals in this period, too.</p>
<p>Alvarez&#8217;s minutes have largely come from the bench. He is unlikely to be involved in Gameweek 17 too, given his participation in the final stages of the World Cup.</p>
<p>He is therefore here as a potential option for a little later down the line. Whether he can rack up enough minutes on a regular basis to be an FPL option remains to be seen &#8211; but he could be one to consider as the need to rotate intensifies.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51363" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Julian-Alvarez.jpg" alt="" width="897" height="731" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Julian-Alvarez.jpg 897w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Julian-Alvarez-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Julian-Alvarez-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Julian-Alvarez-610x497.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px" /></p>
