NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT have teamed up with fantasy football game Oulala to reveal four budget players that simply must add to your side.
When you're working on a fantasy budget, these are the four players who will save you pounds and win you points.
Oulala's extensive database of statistics, which comprises 70 different criteria sourced straight from Opta, is the perfect tool to identify which players are on a hot run of form.
We've check out the stats and have come up with four players who offer great value, that must be in your fantasy football team this weekend.
Kurt Zouma has been Chelsea's best performing centre-back this season.
The Frenchman has won more tackles (15) than both Gary Cahill and club captain John Terry.
And the stats suggest that this is just the beginning for the physical young Frenchman.
The 21-year-old is out-performing his two more senior colleagues with more clearances (78) more aerial duels won (44), 20 interceptions, and five blocks.
He's showing some form with the ball at his feet too, averaging 24 successful passes per game with an accuracy of 79 per cent.
With numbers like these, whoever replaces Jose Mourinho at Chelsea will find it hard to look beyond Zouma in the centre of defence.
Chelsea host Sunderland on Saturday, who have only scored eight goals away from hom this season are still languishing deep inside the relegation zone.
Alberto Moreno has impressed for Liverpool since regaining his place at the expense of the injured Joe Gomez at left-back. Moreno has made 15 appearances, clocking up 1,060 minutes of game-time for the Reds.
The 23-year-old has made more tackles (35) than any other Liverpool defender, has also made 26 interceptions, 20 clearances and two blocks.
The Spaniard is averaging 27 successful passes per game with an accuracy of 81 per cent.
He has created 31 chances and registered one assist. Liverpool go to high-flying Watford on Sunday, and Quique Sanchez Flores' side have struggled to score at Vicarage Road.
Guillermo Varela has found himself in the Manchester United back four in recent weeks due to United's ever-mounting injury list.
The right-back has two appearances under his belt, performing well in the process.
The 22-year-old has made six tackles, six clearances and four interceptions in his two league games.

United boast one of the league's most watertight defences, and welcome Norwich to Old Trafford on Saturday, a team sitting 18th in the table.
Dele Alli has been a revelation at White Hart Lane this season and his stats back it up.
The 19-year-old has scored three goals and made one other in the Premier League.
He is averaging 25 successful passes per game at an accuracy of 77 per cent and has created 15 chances.
The Tottenham midfielder has also registered 20 shots at an accuracy of 64 per cent and has completed 11 successful dribbles.
Furthermore, the youngster has put in a shift defensively, winning 24 tackles, as well as making 28 interceptions and 17 clearances.
Spurs will head to Southampton on Saturday, a side that is conceding an average of more than a goal a game at home.
