Ahead of this week's Premier League matches, here are some key stats about the top fantasy options in this week's key contests.


Tottenham vs. Burnley

In terms of fantasy matchups, stacking Tottenham players will likely be your best bet for optimal results. Coming off a draw at Barcelona in the Champions League, Tottenham will look to ride the high into the weekend in the Premier League.

Spurs' opponent, Burnley, has allowed 17 goals on the road this season, with only Southampton (20) and Fulham (24) allowing more. Burnley have also scored six goals on the road, with only Cardiff City (3) scoring fewer.

Harry Kane has scored goals in four of his past five Premier League starts, averaging 4.4 shots per game and 2.4 shots on goal per game. His last start was against Southampton, and he registered a goal and an assist.

Another player to consider is Son Heung-Min. In his last four Premier League starts, he has three goals and one assist, all games with three or more shots and at least one shot on goal. Sneakily, he has averaged over four ball recoveries per game, too.

Southampton vs. Arsenal

Arsenal players are solid options in case you do not trust Tottenham players to succeed against Burnley. Arsenal are currently unbeaten in their last 21 games, last losing August 18 against Chelsea. Arsenal have scored in 20 of the 21 games during its unbeaten streak.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is currently tied for the Premier League lead in goals with 10 with Mohamed Salah. During Arsenal's unbeaten run, Aubameyang has scored 12 goals and assisted another three, earning an October Player of the Month award in the Premier League.

Alexandre Lacazette is also a solid option. Since Lacazette came back from an injury in April, Aubameyang (17, first) and Lacazette (11, fourth) are the only pair of teammates with at least 10 goals scored in the Premier League.

Wolves vs. Bournemouth

This match has potential for Tier 2 or 3 players to do well. Both teams have been allowing goals over the last month and have not been keeping clean sheets. Bournemouth have allowed 10 goals during their past four games, most in the Premier League. Wolves also have a negative goal differential in that span.

Players such as Joshua King, Callum Wilson and Raúl Jiménez are all viable Tier 2 forwards. All three players have scored at least four goals this season. Jiménez and Wilson both have provided four or more assists for their respective squads this season, as well.

The last time either team kept a clean sheet was Bournemouth vs. Fulham on October 27. Since then, the two teams have allowed 24 goals combined.
