Gameweek 14 Waiver Wire Targets
Here we outline Fantasy EPL Gameweek 14 Waiver Wire Targets that are 40% rostered or below on Fantrax. These players will also have a favorable run of fixtures upcoming, so they could perform very well over the upcoming period!
We’re all about matchups this week. These three low-key balled out over the weekend and have the added bonus of going up against poor opposition next GW. Improve your roster by picking up these diamonds in the rough!
Ashley Young
Position: Defender
Team: Aston Villa
Rostered: 11%
Next Fixture: Manchester City (Home)
Prospects: This may be a very reactionary suggestion, but Ashley Young seems to be rolling back the years and has found a new lease on life with Stevie G at the helm. 2 assists in 2 games and more importantly a much more natural and good looking performance on the left as opposed to that of Emi Buendia last week. with Ings, Emi, Bailey, and Young all vying for 2 spots, here is definitely a lot of competition but Young has done enough to be considered aóthe front runner. I would not necessarily start him against City as he is classified as a defender in Fantrax Default Scoring leagues and therefore will get -2 for every goal conceded, but if you are stuck for defensive options, I would not be afraid to do it.
Verdict: I would use a low-end waiver claim or 0-3% of my remaining FAB on Young.
Albert Sambi Lokonga
Position: Midfielder
Team: Arsenal
Rostered: 6%
Next Fixture: Man United (Away)
Prospects: We have recommended him numerous times in both Sleepers XI articles, Stream your way through the gameweek articles and previous waiver suggestions and we are at it again. The Arsenal midfielder has been a solid performer ever since he got his first taste of starting XI action and this past gameweek that amounted to 15 points, 14 of which were of the spooky kind. He will have a lot to do in the midweek game against a revitalized United team so expect a good score.
Verdict: I would use a low-range waiver claim or 3-5% of my remaining FAB on Lokonga.
Armando Broja
Position: Forward
Team: Southampton
Rostered: 12%
Next Fixture: Leicester (Home)
Prospects: One of my favorite under 40% rostered players to look for every time Southampton lineups come out. The Chelsea loanee’s time in the starting XI has been hampered by an injury, but he made it back for the game against Liverpool and promptly put up a very respectable 7 points in a 4-0 defeat. With easy fixtures ahead for Southampton, he could well be a long-term hold.
Verdict: I would use a low-end waiver claim or about 3-5% of my remaining FAB on Broja.
