Fantasy Premier League 2019-20: 10 defenders to boost your FPL points

#1 Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool) - £7.2m

Trent Alexander-Arnold is the joint highest scoring defender in Fantasy Premier League.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is one of the best right-backs in the Premier League and possibly the planet too, which immediately makes him a top target for Fantasy Premier League managers. As previously stated, though, just because a player is superb in real life doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll be as good as that in FPL. Luckily, Alexander-Arnold is great both in real life and the game.

If you can afford his hefty price tag of £7.2m, then Trent Alexander-Arnold is a certain pick for your back-line as he picks up points non-stop. He’s currently the joint highest-scoring defender in Fantasy Premier League and could very easily finish as the highest scoring defender by the end of the campaign.

Adept both at defending and attacking, the 21-year-old is worth every penny you invest in him and you are bound to notice a return on that investment within a few weeks. He has two assists and a goal from the eight games he’s featured in for the Reds so far. If he continues this current run of form, he could end up with an assist tally a midfielder would be proud of.
