⚽ Low-Owned Picks for Gameweek 27

We’ve opened a Discord community for Draft Fantasy. The best place to talk fantasy football with others!

An assist and a clean sheet from Ait Nouri last time out topped the picks for Gameweek 26. Well done to those of you who voted for Rayan to be pick of the bunch and an even bigger well done to those of you who managed to snap him up for your own teams! A full roster of fixtures awaits us in Gameweek 27 as we dive back into the waiver pile to find those low-owned gems for this week. Happy hunting all!

Marcos Senesi (BOU) DEF Ownership: 28.6% Next Fixture: BUR (A)
With a keen eye on an excellent set of double gameweek fixtures in Gameweek 28, the first pick of the bunch this week is Marcos Senesi. Having proved a threat in front of goal with three goals already this season and a great fixture this week when facing Burnley, there's lot's to like about this pick. Grab him whilst you can if still available in your league!

Jarrad Branthwaite (EVE) DEF Ownership: 25.7% Next Fixture: WHU (H)
In a rarity for me, I'm tipping another centre back this week in young Jarrad Branthwaite. Since making the second spot (alongside James Tarkowski) in central defence his own, Branthwaite has put in a string of impressive performances and notched two goals in the last four gameweeks. Whilst West Ham ran riot on Monday evening against Brentford, I fancy Everton to prove a tougher nut to crack for the Hammers this time out. One to consider, for sure.

Jacob Ramsey (AVL) MID Ownership: 17.5% Next Fixture: LUT (A)
A favourite for the waiver wire picks, Jacob Ramsey sneaks his way back into consideration. Having notched an assist last week, I'm backing Ramsey to build on this and get on the scoresheet against a lacklustre Luton side that are shipping goals for fun. Whilst Luton defenders will be glad to see the back of Erling Haaland, Villa do possess plenty of firepower and I fancy this Villa side to put a hatful past them, hopefully with Ramsey among those to prosper.

Marcus Tavernier (BOU) MID Ownership: 27.8% Next Fixture: BUR (A)
As mentioned above with team-mate Senesi, there's plenty of appeal with Bournemouth assets as they chase a Burnley fixture with a double against fellow stragglers Sheffield United and Luton Town next week. Tavernier seems to blow hot and cold, but if you time it right, this is a pick that can do wonders for your ranks. With his last goals coming as a brace back in gameweek 13, you might see this as either a player overdue a return, or a wasted pick…..the choice is yours.

Eddie Nketiah (ARS) FWD Ownership: 36.7% Next Fixture: SHU (H)
A bit of a rogue pick, I'm scraping the barrel to find any dregs of a player that may make it onto the turf against Sheffield United. With the Blades in dire form and Arsenal raining goals from across all areas of the pitch, I'm hoping Nketiah can persuade Arteta to give him at least 20 minutes to make his mark on this fixture and that may well be all it takes for him to deliver the goods, particularly given the aforementioned form of the two sides.

That will do it for this week from Draft Fantasy! Best of luck on the waiver wire!
