Fantasy Premier League 2017-18: Players to pick for Gameweek 7

Tottenham Hotspur v Stoke City - Premier League
Harry Kane is back to his best

Forwards

11. Harry Kane - Long Term

West Ham United v Tottenham Hotspur - Premier League
Kane brings with him great form away from home

Managers who kept faith in Kane were rewarded as the Englishman hit 2 goals in quick succession against West Ham last week. Kane has been frustrating but his away form speaks for itself. The player has had the highest shots taken (39) and leads the next in line, Romelu Lukaku (27), by quite a margin.

With a strong midfield with Alli and Eriksen to back him up, we expect Kane to deliver yet again this coming week. Kane also had a superb Champions League outing as he scored a hattrick.

Tottenham travel away to play Huddersfield town, a team with only a single victory in their last 5 matches. Although the Terriers have been defensively sound for the majority of their campaign till now, a strong Spurs attack could completely blow them away.

10. Romelu Lukaku - Short Term

Manchester United v Everton - Premier League
The Belgian is our captain for this week

The Big Belgian will be wearing the armband for our team this gameweek as he faces a weak Crystal Palace team who just can't get away from their horrid form despite getting in a new manager in Roy Hodgson.

Lukaku's home form had been phenomenal at his old club Everton and the forward has brought it to Manchester United as well. His consistency and strong potential for points at home make him a force to contend with this gameweek. Lukaku also has an extremely high pick percentage (56%) which means that not having him could backfire immensely. The forward also scored a brace against CSKA Moscow earlier this week in the Champions League.

However, United are heading towards rough fixtures soon and it would be advisable to bank on another premium striker in the long run.
