Fantasy Football Premier League is the top type of fantasy football event in the world, just like the EPL is the top league, right? Well, that’s what devoted fans would like to believe.

But all that interest creates heavy competition. And just how are people like you and me triumph over fantasy managers who know everything down to the players’ shoe size?

I’ve got a few tips and tricks for you. I will not make any false promises about you winning the contests outright. But I can, nearly, claim that using these players in your team will save you embarrassment.

These are the players that you need for Round 9 of the fantasy football Premier League.

But, wait! Before you scuttle off to use this knowledge, let me remind you of FootballCoin’s fantasy Premier League contest this weekend. Yes, it’s free, and, unlike other games of the type, this offers real rewards! There, I said it!

These Are the Players You Need for Premier League Fantasy Football for Round 9!

If there’s one trendy team this season, who’d you reckon it is? Sure, Crystal Palace and Brighton have been doing all right for quite a while.

This leaves space for fans to marvel at Bournemouth’s record, not to mention its style of play. Of course, Antoine Semenyo is vital for it, and you should pick him ahead of anyone else this week. That’s partly because Andoni Iraola’s team is playing a Nottingham Forest team trying to regroup under new management.

FootballCoin stats also reveal that defenders Marco Senesi and Adrien Truffert could look great in your team, along with American midfielder Tyler Adams.

If you are looking for near-desperate cases, Manchester City’s travel to Aston Villa might be just what you’ve been searching for. Erling Haaland can’t stop scoring, and Villa look a bit shaken by the mid-week defeat to Go Ahead Eagles.

Pep Guardiola’s starting elevens always have a habit of tricking you. That’s why I’ll only mention Ruben Dias (if you can afford him) and Tijani Reijnders as good fantasy football picks.

Meanwhile, if on the other hand you’re searching for a possible surprise result, Crystal Palace might be capable of it as they take on title favourites Arsenal.

Expect some rotation from Mikel Arteta if he can spare it. Still, Declan Rice and Gabriel Magalhaes should be in the starting eleven, and in yours as well. Meanwhile, Jurrien Timber has been excellent this entire season.

Elsewhere, Nick Woltemane has immediately taken to the Premier League pace. Can you believe that the German card is free to use in FootballCoin? You should take advantage of that.

Let’s end on a sad note. Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United takes on Brighton, shooting for the epochal record of three wins in a row. A lot of things could go wrong here. However, Bruno Fernandes, Casemiro and Bryan Mbeumo tend to pick up points in these kinds of matches.

The Players You Need to Avoid in Round 9!

Harry Maguire was fantastic last round. And, in fact, the Manchester United defence was brave and capable of stopping attacks by one of the league’s finest teams. Will they do it again? I’d, perhaps, reconsider picking Maguire, Matthijs De Ligt, or Diogo Dalot. I’m not that brave!

I like this Fulham side. But even talented players like Alex Iwobi or Sande Berge should struggle against a Newcastle side now finding its stride once Woltemade has joined up. Can you believe that the German card is free to use in FootballCoin?

Elsewhere, it’ll be easier to avoid players like Martin Odegaard or Nono Madueke, who are out through injury. Add to the list Youri Tielemans, David Brooks, Cole Palmer, Jeremie Frimpong, and possibly even Alexander Isak.

Meanwhile, there is no doubt whatsoever about the likes of Mateo Kovacic, Reinildo, and Malo Gusto, who are suspended ahead of Round 9!

Now that you know, get into that FootballCoin contest and create your top fantasy football Premier League team! You are the manager!
