Gameweek Six in Fantasy Premier League delivered plenty of surprises, and with another round of fixtures approaching, there are some interesting players worth considering. Manchester Citys home meeting with Ipswich looks particularly appealing, while a couple of cheaper forwards could reward managers willing to look beyond the usual names. Here are five players Id consider bringing in this week.Rayan CherkiPrice: 7.9mOwnership 32.2%Position: MidfielderOpponent: IPS (H), AVL (A), BHA (H)It feels daft to spend 15.6m on Haaland and ignore the other City player causing problems. Cherki has four goals and two assists in just 392 league minutes, and nobody in Citys midfield has managed more than his 14 shots or 14 chances created. Ipswich arrive at the Etihad without a clean sheet and rank among the leagues worst sides for expected goals conceded. The worry is the team sheet. Cherki played against PSG in midweek and Foden is back, so Maresca has options. Still, if he starts, 7.9m looks a decent price for this fixture.Gonzalo GarciaPrice: 6.1mOwnership: 7.2%Position: ForwardOpponent: HUL (H), COV (A), AVL (A)Garcia has scored once in six matches, which doesnt sound particularly exciting for a striker. His 3.0 xG tell a different story. Hes started every league match, keeps getting chances in the box and now has Hull at home followed by Coventry away. Fulham have been poor, and Saturdays late defeat at Ipswich wont have helped confidence, but theyve created considerably more than their goal tally suggests. Hull have made a better start than some expected, so this isnt a guaranteed return. For managers shopping around 6m, though, Garcia offers minutes, chances and two fixtures worth attacking.Joko GvardiolPrice: 5.8mOwnership: 28.1%Position: DefenderOpponent : IPS (H), AVL (A), BHA (H)It hasnt been plain sailing for Gvardiol, yet hes still managed 41 FPL points in six Gameweeks. That tells you why he interests me more than a defender who needs his team to keep a zero. City host Ipswich this weekend before facing Villa, Brighton, Forest and Fulham, so there is a decent run to work with rather than just one soft opponent. Gvadiol is 5.8m, hes not cheap, and his attacking returns have come from relatively few opportunities. Hes also played 458 of a possible 540 minutes, which makes rotation the catch. Id still back the fixture.Dominic Calvert-LewinPrice: 6.0mOwnership: 22.6%Position: ForwardOpponent: MUN (H), SUN (A), BOU (A)Calvert-Lewin has been sold by plenty of managers, but Leeds fixture list is about to give them a reason to reconsider. The striker has had six big chances in six games, putting him among the leagues most regularly supplied forwards. Manchester United come to Elland Road without a clean sheet this season, and Sunderland and Bournemouth follow. Both have conceded 12 or more goals already. He isnt the sort of forward you buy expecting two goals every Saturday, and Leeds wont dominate every game. But at 6.0m, those chances and the next few opponents make him a reasonable gamble.Marcus TavernierPrice: 6.1mOwnership: 7.3%Position: MidfielderOpponent: SUN (H), MUN (A), LEE (H)Bournemouth were well beaten by Chelsea last weekend, so this might feel an odd time to buy one of their players. Tavernier is still worth a look. Hes scored three times this season, has been involved in Bournemouths better attacking moves and can pick up points from set pieces as well as open play. Sunderland come to the Vitality Stadium having conceded 12 goals in six league matches, with Leeds at home and Ipswich away also on the horizon. The Manchester United trip in between isnt ideal. At 6.1m, Id rather take that fixture run than write him off because of one poor team performance. Topics Arsenal F.C. Chelsea F.C. Liverpool F.C. Manchester City F.C. Manchester United F.C.
