Our verdict on Maatsen
Chosen Esiwe
Of the 8 Premier League games Aston Villa have played, Ian Maatsen has started 5, lasting 85 minutes a time on average. He starts most weeks, though not every week. At £4.4m and owned by just 0.4% of managers, he is a genuine differential.
Over the last 30 days he has averaged 0.7 points a game, which puts him 96th out of 135 regular defenders. Managers want a lot more than that from the position. He has 1 clean sheet and 1 bonus point so far. His returns trail what his chances suggest, which often means better weeks are on the way.
His price has dropped £0.1m since the start of the season.
Over the next five gameweeks he faces FUL (H), MUN (A), SUN (H), IPS (A) and EVE (H). There is nothing there to be afraid of.
Every figure here comes from the official Fantasy Premier League data and refreshes as the week goes on. We judge minutes first, then form against others in the same position, price movement and the next five fixtures.
