<h2>Sky Gameweek 6 Preview</h2>
There are three days of action in Sky FF this weekend. 
Saturday and Sunday should provide most people with a couple of captaincy options to choose from, whilst the Monday night game is perhaps a bit unappealing to many - Leeds v Nottingham Forest. 
The action starts with the lunchtime game at Craven Cottage, as Fulham host Chelsea. Aleksandar Mitrovic has been in great scoring form. Six goals in six games for the Serbian. If only he’d scored the penalty he missed at Wolves and he’d be on a six match scoring run. 
Chelsea have only kept one clean sheet all season, and have looked a bit suspect especially with Edouard Mendy in goal. 
Mitrovic has a great run of games coming up. Forest, Newcastle, West Ham, Bournemouth, Villa, Leeds and Everton. With 49 points, he’s only second to Erling Haaland as the highest scoring striker. In just 32.8% of the top 1000 teams currently, I expect his ownership to grow over the coming weeks.
 I would say don’t bring him in this week, but the way Chelsea have looked defensively, perhaps it’s not an issue.

With all that said, Ben Chilwell could be a differential option. He's priced at £9.4m and in just 0.2% of the top 1000 teams. 
Chilwell is just returning after a long injury lay off, but did manage an 11 pointer off the bench in his last game with a goal and an assist.
 I also think his return will make Marc Cucurella a player to transfer out. Owned by 4.8%, he’s only earned 11 points all season, no clean sheets, and no passing bonus, although does have two assists to his name.

Liverpool face wolves at Anfield, and there have been some doubts about Mohamed Salah’s lack of goals this season. 
Despite his perceived lack of form, and Liverpool’s indifferent start, he’s still managed two goals and two assists for 30 points. 
Surely the big hauls will come soon for the Egyptian?

The evening game is Manchester City v Tottenham. Is it a case of always captain Erling Haaland every time City play? 
He’s started every game so far, and seems to play for at least an hour then gets taken off. 
With a big game like this one, I see no reason why he wouldn’t start again. 
Haaland went off after 70 minutes against Sevilla in the Champions League in midweek after grabbing a brace, so he should be good to go.
<div id="attachment_47507" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-47507" class="size-full wp-image-47507" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/GettyImages-1410535103.jpg" alt="haaland" width="1024" height="676" />

Sunday sees three matches, West Ham v Newcastle, Arsenal v Everton and Crystal Palace v Manchester United. 
Gabriel Jesus I suspect will be the most selected captain, sitting at 63% ownership amongst the top 1000 teams. 
For those without Jesus, William Saliba could be a good option too.
Saliba is 55% owned, and should be ok for passing bonus, which could be a ten point captaincy even without a clean sheet. 
I did look at Nick Pope, £7.1m, 23.3% owned in the top 1000, and he has 43 points. Three clean sheets and save bonus in five games makes him the second highest scoring keeper.
<div id="attachment_49152" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-49152" class="size-full wp-image-49152" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/GettyImages-1242645622.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" />

Marcus Rashford is another option. Just £8.1m, after having the biggest price drop in the game since last season. I’m still not 100% convinced on him. The two goals last week were great, but apart from the goal against Liverpool he hasn’t done much this season. 
But he is a tempting price for a midfielder that played as the front man last week. The concerns I have with him are that when he hasn’t been great, Cristiano Ronaldo might take some game time off him, and even the signing of Antony may affect him, as well as the return of Anthony Martial. 
Mentioning Antony, at £8.8m he started well with a goal and shots bonus. Perhaps you're better investing a bit more for the Brazilian over Rashford? 
Rashford is 45.7% owned in the top 1000 though, so not owning the England man is a risk.

Monday night's game is Leeds v Nottingham Forest. 
A lot of people, myself included, have £6.5m goalkeeper Dean Henderson in place for this game. 
Not forgetting Forest play Fulham next Friday, so a Forest player will cover you both games, Henderson is 10.8% owned, so again I expect this to rise. 
Brennan Johnson at £7.2m is in 11.4% - he’s ticked along ok I guess. Not brilliant, but 22 points so far and a couple of goals. 
What the Welshman does over the single game days will determine how much of a good pick he’s been.
<div id="attachment_48904" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-48904" class="size-full wp-image-48904" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Wales-World-Cup-Brennan-Johnson-1.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" />

Another player of note this week was Alexis Mac Allister at £7.4m - with a brace against Leicester, he now has four goals this season from six starts. 
That’s 43 points for the Argentine, who is just 7.5% owned in the top 1000. 
Brighton also have a single game day against Brentford on Friday 14th October, so he could be someone to bring in sooner rather than later. 
He’s also picked up tackle bonus three times, and shots and passing bonus once, so he has a few strings to his bow.
