Fantasy Premier League: Top 5 Budget Defenders you should pick

#3 Shkodran Mustafi- Arsenal (£5.4)

Averaging around 9 in the last 3 games, Mustafi is soaring high

Arsenal have got 3 consecutive clean sheets against Spurs, Burnley and Huddersfield. And Mustafi has contributed greatly in all these games.

His impressive performances have bagged him bonus points in 3 successive matches. He scored a goal in the North London Derby to help the home side win 2-0. And in the last 3 games, he has picked up an astonishing 28 FPL points.

He has got a noteworthy form of 7.0 and comes at a reasonable price of £5.4. Seeing that he has exceeded expectations on his recent performances, Wenger should now be giving him more game time.

Arsenal have a tough fixture up next with United coming over to Emirates. But considering the recent demolition of Huddersfield, their remarkable home record conceding just 4 goals and having beaten all the oppositions at Emirates so far, the odds are slightly in favour towards the Gunners.

As a result, Shkodran Mustafi comes under the radar. His value has increased by £0.1 in the previous gameweek and will likely increase further.

Shkodran Mustafi sure looks a promising addition to your FPL team.
