The Best Gameweek 30 Differentials 

We are now in the home straight of the season. Chip planning, blanks, doubles, injuries, all will have a major part to play. 

So, if you are one of the managers who needs to make up some ground or climb some rank quickly, then it’s time to start taking some risks. What better way to do so than with the humble differential.  

A quick reminder. As we aim not to repeat any suggestions from previous differential articles and bring you only fresh content, there are still plenty of differential gems that can be found in our Gameweek 29 and Gameweek 28 differentials pieces. 

Also, Make sure you check out our Best FPL Gameweek 30 Captains for other great differential options. 

And as always, make sure you check out our Predicted Line-Ups and Team News Hub before locking in any changes. 

Anyway, without further ado, let’s get stuck into the best Gameweek 30 differentials for FPL. 

 

Anton Stach – £4.7m 

Ownership: 2.6% 

There’s no 2 ways around it, £4.7m is unbelievable value for the type of output this man can produce. Already on 4 goals and 6 assists for the season and now coming into a great run of fixtures. He is also doing it at a very solid 0.3 xGI per 90. Which, while not jumping out the page, shows consistent involvement. Particularly for a £4.7m player. 

What makes Stach extra exciting however, is his Defcon potential. He is averaging 11+ per game in his last 5 starts and has not had a single game below 10 in that same stretch.  

With Palace, Brentford, United, Wolves, Bournemouth and Burnley in their next 6, he makes the perfect 5th midfielder for anyone needing to make budgets work. Especially if you have already used your wildcard and need a consistent starter for the next 6.  

He also has a strong presence on set-pieces which further adds to his appeal. An all round great asset for only £4.7m.  

 

Morgan Gibbs-White – £7.3m 

Ownership: 3.8% 

On balance I think it’s fair to say Forest have the best fixtures in the league. Now where most people will be going for Anderson, if you really want to chase some upside, then Gibbs-White could be the play. He has quietly amassed 8 goals and 2 assists already this season, including 2 in his last 2. 

His goalscoring touch could not have come at a better time either, with Fulham, Spurs, a struggling Villa, Burnley and Sunderland in their next 5.  

There 2-2 draw with City, in which MGW scored, should also give them plenty of momentum. Along with the fact they are battling to stay up. This Forest team will no doubt be giving it everything they have in these next few game weeks and MGW could be a prime beneficiary of that. 

He also works well if you are on Wildcard 32, as his next 2 games in Fulham and Spurs are about as good as it gets for an attacker. 

 

Florian Wirtz – £8.3m 

Ownership: 9.1% 

Again, whether you are looking for a 2-game punt and are wildcarding in GW32, or you are looking at a slightly later wildcard, then Wirtz is a great option. Before his most recent knock he was on an absolute tear and was averaging an xGI  per 90 of 0.72 across his most recent 9 games. To along with his 4 goals and 3 assists. 

With Spurs, Brighton, Fulham, Everton and Palace in his next 5, it is hard to see the German not picking up where he left off.  

 

Benjamin Sesko – £7.3m 

Ownership: 5.9% 

With 4 goals in his last 6 games, and now finally 2 starts in a row in the books, Sesko appears to have finally entered FPL viability. It is no secret that Man United’s attack is one of the best in the league at present, so any man spearheading it should see plenty of opportunities. 

Along with his 4 goals in 6, he is averaging a very respectable 0.5 xGI per 90, meaning the service is also very solid. Would be hard not to be with Mbeumo, Cunha and Fernandes behind you. 

He now goes into a set of 5 fixtures where you really wouldn’t say any have good defences. Villa have been struggling and have shipped 6 in their last 2 games, Bournemouth have conceded the 5th most goals in the league, Leeds the 4th most, Chelsea have 1 clean sheet in their last 13 and Brentford recently conceded 3 to Burnley. Wheels up.
