<h2 style="text-align: left;">Best FPL team for Gameweek 9</h2>
A full lineup of players with home matches is selected by the AI this week.
Newcastle have the best chance of a clean sheet in Gameweek 9, given Crystal Palace have the fifth-worst expected goals (xG) and are missing star man Eberechi Eze.
Kieran Trippier is the Magpies defender of choice, having recorded five assists.
He is joined by Nottingham Forest&#8217;s Willy Boly, who faces a Luton side who have scored the joint-second fewest goals so far. The AI fancies a Forest defensive double, pairing Boly with Matt Turner.
Pedro Porro is the first of three Tottenham Hotspur players, joined by Son Heung-min and James Maddison for their fixture against Fulham.
Son is behind only Erling Haaland for predicted points this week, just ahead of Mohamed Salah who also makes the cut for the Merseyside Derby.
Moussa Diaby and Phil Foden complete the midfield. Diaby is second among Aston Villa players for goal involvements (six), while Foden has one goal and three assists for Manchester City.
The defending champions play Brighton and will hoping to bounce back from two league defeats in a row. The expected return of Rodri may help their chances.
