Fantasy Football Tips: 5 Essential Transfers For Gameweek 24

4. Vincent Kompany

Team: Man City Value: £6.3 million Points In GW23: 9 Manchester City take on Chelsea in a blockbuster encounter at the Etihad next Monday, the first of two games between these two in February, as they also meet in the FA Cup. City's home form is superior but it will be put to the test against a Chelsea side looking to keep up their title hopes - all the ingredients for a classic. I think City will win given their 100% home record, though the Blues will put up more of a fight than their London rivals Spurs did mid-week. I also reckon the Citizens will keep a clean-sheet because Chelsea's strikers are struggling at the moment and they fired blanks against lowly West Ham on Wednesday. Vincent Kompany has also been a rock for City at the back and has even been getting in the goals recently as well, netting in the routing of Tottenham. He's one of the more expensive defenders in the game at £6.3 million and his injury record is patchy, but when he plays he scores big points.
