Waiver Wire Gameweek 7

Here we outline our Fantasy EPL GW7 Waiver Wire targets that have 40% rostered or below on Fantrax. These players should perform well over the upcoming period!



Pep Chavarría (Ros 22%)

Prospects: Pep Chavarría has been Xabi Alonso's trusted LB since the half time hooking of Hato during the Hull City game. 7 ghost points in a 0-3 loss to Brentford and 15.25 points against Bournemouth reinforces his ability to grab points without relying on clean sheets. Palestra was just introduced for his first minutes of the season and Chavarría still played out the full 90. If rotation does loom, Chelsea has the benefit of being the first match up of GW7.

Verdict: Low priority, $1-3 FAB.



Carlos Baleba (Ros 20%)

Prospects: Carlos Baleba came back from his ankle injury and was immediately involved off the bench against Tottenham this weekend. 7.25 ghosts in 31 minutes contributing both offensively and defensively to the team. Possession and momentum coincided directly with him being subbed in and the $88 million signing wasn't brought into the team to sit on the bench. One to watch if you need a MID4/5 who should provide a decent floor this year.

Verdict: Low priority, $1 FAB.



Malick Fofana (Ros 23%)

Prospects: Malick Fofana saw himself subbed in early following a hamstring injury to Thomas Meunier. He was immediately shifted to his favored left side with Nilson Angulo being pushed to the right. 4.75 ghost points in 56 minutes looks very positive and it could increase if he's given the full 90. Next on Sunderland's schedule is Bournemouth, Leeds and Coventry City. With the forward waiver pool being depleted, you could be looking at the best of the rest.

Verdict: Low priority, $1-3 FAB.
