💎 6 cheap hidden gems that nobody seems to be talking about (well maybe a bit).
2 Midfielders, 2 defenders and 2 strikers that could make you smile this festive period

I'll be comparing both players from the same position side by side.

I will look at both players' stats, look at the team's stats then look at their fixtures. Before telling you my opinion on who I would rather
Pedro Neto Vs Raphinha
5% ownership. 0.5% ownership
£5.6 million. £5.4 million
🐺Let's look at Neto first

Minutes: 836
Goals: 3
Assists: 2
Shots on target: 7
Shots on target per 90: 0.75
Chances created: 22
Chances created per 90: 2.36

xA: 1.95
⚪Raphinha

Shots on target per 90: 0.55

xA: 1.33
🐺Wolves

xG: 10.86
⚪Leeds

To summerise:
Based on the numbers Neto looks better. But take in mind that we have much more data available for Neto than Raphinha.
Looking at the team stats Leeds look much better than Wolves their fixtures are also better.

I would pick Raphinha who would you go for?
Vladimir Coufal Vs Darnell Furlong
2.4% ownership 0.2% ownership
£4.6 million £4.5 million
Coufal:
Minutes: 714
Goals: 0
Assists: 1
Clean sheets: 3
Chances created: 11
Chances created per 90: 1.38
xA: 0.84
Furlong:
Minutes: 878
Goals: 0
Assists: 2
Clean sheets: 2
Chances created: 10
Chances created per 90: 1.02
xA: 1.29
West Ham:
Goals conceded: 14
Saves per match: 3
Clean sheets: 4
xGA: 15.53
West Brom:
Goals conceded: 23
Saves per match: 4.1
Clean sheets: 2
xGA: 23.44

To Summerise:
Both have fairly similar stats but Coufal plays for a team who keeps more clean sheets than Furlong. West Ham's fixtures are also better.

I would rather Coufal
Danny Welbeck Vs. Olivier Giroud
0.9% ownership. 1.2% ownership
£5.5 million. £6.7 million
Welbeck:

Minutes: 363
⚽Goals: 1
🎯Assists: 0
Shots on target: 4
xG: 1.09
xA: 1.46
Giroud:

Minutes: 130
⚽Goals: 1
🎯Assists: 0
Shots on target: 3
xG: 1.62
xA: 1.03
Brighton:

Big chances created: 16
xG: 16.86
Chelsea:
Goals: 25
Big chances created: 19
xG: 21.05

Both players could be great picks but both have a strong chance of rotation.
Chelsea have much better stats and fixtures! But Lamprad has more players to rotate Giroud with.

With Fulham and Sheffield UTD coming up for Welbeck he could also be a great option
Well done if you reached this far 😅. First thread I've done in a while so I was a bit rusty hopefully you liked it! Hopefully there were no silly typos
