Football is coming thick and fast and that is proving to be a real headache for Premier League managers – not to mention their fantasy football counterparts.
With yet another Gameweek getting under way on New Year’s Day, here are our final Fantasy Premier League tips of 2018.
Get these points scorers in your side and kick off 2019 with a bang.
Raul Jimenez, Wolves
Raul Jimenez’s form for Wolves this season has made him a favourite among FPL managers, with 21.7 per cent of teams currently possessing the centre-forward.

His goal helped Wolves to a shock 3-1 victory over Spurs on Saturday, taking the the newly promoted side up to seventh in the Premier League table.
Other than Manchester City in Gameweek 22, Wolves now face a relatively kind run of fixtures with the struggling Crystal Palace set to visit Molineux on 2 January and Jimenez looks well capable of adding to his already impressive points tally.
Cost: £6.3m Points: 93
Paul Pogba, Manchester United
One man who has clearly flourished under the guidance of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is Manchester United’s club record signing Paul Pogba.
The midfielder has been in sensational form, picking up 46 points since the Norwegian took charge as United have won three on the bounce.
With United set to face a struggling Newcastle this week, it would be a brave FPL manager who chooses not to include him in their team.
Cost: £8.2m Points: 97
Richarlison, Everton
While not in the best form, Everton face a kind run of fixtures to kick off the New Year.
While Gylfi Sigurdsson (97 points) is the club’s top scorer in terms of FPL points, teammate Richarlison (95 points) is £0.3m cheaper and therefore a better value option.
Get him in ahead of games against Leicester, Bournemouth, Southampton and Huddersfield.
Cost: £7.0 Points: 95
Dele Alli, Spurs
With his Spurs teammate Son Heung-min soon to jet off for the Asian Cup, there could well be plenty more game time for Lucas Moura in the coming Gameweeks.

The Brazilian started the season in great form, scoring three goals in as many games – including a brace at Old Trafford – but has struggled of late.
With Manchester United visiting Wembley next month as well as winnable fixtures against Cardiff, Fulham and Watford, consider getting the Spurs man in at some point in the next few weeks and back him to re-find his form.
Cost: £6.9m Points: 84
David Luiz, Chelsea
David Luiz has enjoyed an excellent season under Maurizio Sarri, benefitting from the new manager’s emphasis on playing out from the back.
The Brazilian has played 90 minutes of every game, bar the victory over Wolves in Gameweek 15, and has picked up an impressive 91 FPL points thanks to nine clean sheets and five games in which he has been awarded bonus points.
With home games against Southampton and Newcastle coming up, now seems as good a time as any to get the Chelsea man on board.
Cost: £5.8m Points: 91
