Fantasy Football Tips

Captain Options

Jamie Vardy is the standout captain candidate in this fixture. He is a flat-track bully who will relish the opportunity against a leaky Norwich side.

Ricardo Pereira could be amongst the points on both ends of the pitch. He might play out of position in a right-wing role. He has high assist potential along with clean sheet chances.

Differential Pick

Our differential pick for this game is Todd Cantwell. He has premier league experience and played well in Championship last season, scoring six goals and six assists.
