The North London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham is the star attraction on Wednesday evening, while surprise title contenders Nottingham Forest are aiming for a league double over leaders Liverpool when they meet at the City Ground on Tuesday.

Here are five players you should be looking to get into your Fantasy Football squad for a busy midweek of top-flight action.

Bruno Fernandes (Midfielder)

The Manchester United skipper scored a stunner in the FA Cup at Arsenal on Sunday and is playing his part as Ruben Amorim gets to grips with the Red Devils.

The Portuguese has an ideal home fixture against basement boys Southampton at Old Trafford in this game week. Only Wolves have conceded more goals than the Saints.

The United skipper has scored three goals and provided four assists in his eight Premier League appearances against Southampton and will appeal to many as captain material this week.

Alexander Isak (Forward)

If Newcastle forward Alexander Isak is not already part of your squad, this surely is the time to have him onside.

Alongside team-mates Anthony Gordon and Lewis Hall, Isak is proving a very popular acquisition. He has scored in his last seven Premier League outings, tallying nine goals and two assists in that run.

Struggling Wolves are the visitors to St James' Park before games against Bournemouth, Southampton and Fulham, ensuring looks a must-have forward for the foreseeable future.

Lewis Hall (Defender)

Staying with the Magpies, left-back Lewis Hall is sure to be on the shopping list for many managers.

The 20-year-old has made the position his own this season and has helped Eddie Howe's side to four clean sheets in their last five Premier League games.

He is a solid option for getting forward too, with three assists in those five games.

Wolves are outside the relegation zone on goal difference alone entering this round of games and have conceded more goals (45) than any other side, so Hall could be set to add to his attacking gains this week.

Daniel Munoz (Defender)

A differential could be Crystal Palace defender Daniel Munoz, as the Eagles prepare for a trip to face Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

The Colombian was a January signing for Palace last season and started 16 times across the second half of the campaign.

The wing-back has cemented his position in the side this time around and has two goals and two assists already.

Both goals have come in his last seven league starts, so he is player in form, and the chances of more attacking dividends are highlighted by the fact he has 20 shots from inside the box already this season.

Everton and Jordan Pickford are now under new manager David Moyes

Jordan Pickford (Goalkeeper)

Everton have reunited with former manager David Moyes and it will be no surprise if the Scot can oversee an upturn in fortunes, meaning goalkeeper Jordan Pickford remains a solid option for fantasy players.

Aston Villa the visitors to Goodison Park for Moyes' first game second time around and the Villans have lost their last five on the road in the league, scoring just two goals across those five games.

Pickford's 61 saves this season leave him in the top five in the Premier League.
