Gameweek 33 of the Fantasy Premier League season gets underway on Friday night as we take a look at four key players that are likely to do the business for your team.

It has been quite a remarkable few days of sport, hasn't it?

An already elongated gameweek has felt even more prolonged due to all of the European Super League nonsense, which came and went in the space of a whirlwind 48 hours.

Despite overshadowing events on the pitch, a more than satisfactory conclusion was reached thanks to coordinated and vociferous fan pressure up and down the country.

Right, now let's turn our attention to something that's worthwhile, shall we? That's right, Gameweek 33 of the fantasy football season is upon us.

Harry Kane's brace against Everton on Friday gave hope to a haul of points considering Tottenham play twice - particularly for those who have him down as skipper.

Elsewhere, Mohamed Salah came off the bench for a one-point performance against Leeds United, while Bruno Fernandes had no involvement in Manchester United's goals in their win over Burnley.

Whether you are ahead in the league or looking to close the gap, SPORTbible takes a look at some transfer suggestions to consider ahead of the new week...

Kelechi Iheanacho (Leicester City)

Price: £6.1m

Points: 70

Prolific striker Kelechi Iheanacho is in the form of his life at the moment.

The Nigerian international has sensationally scored eleven goals in his last eight matches in all competitions, including the winner against Southampton to send the Foxes into a first FA Cup final in 51 years last weekend.

In FPL currency, Iheanacho has averaged 9.8 points per game over the past five gameweeks.

Despite his appealing low price tag, he looks to be a leading captaincy candidate this weekend against a Crystal Palace side that has conceded four goals to both Spurs and Chelsea in their last four games.

Lewis Dunk (Brighton & Hove Albion)

Price: £4.9m

Points: 116

Lewis Dunk, the heart of Brighton's defence is certainly a player you want to have in your back four for this week.

The Seagulls side have returned to their profligate ways in front of goal of late, but defensively - especially with Dunk at the back - they are looking extremely solid.

Having kept three cleans sheets in their previous four matches, Brighton will expect another against a Sheffield United attack that has scored once in six games.

The Blades' 1-0 defeat to Wolves last weekend means that they have officially been put out of their misery and relegated to the Championship following a wretched season.

Although Brighton will be wary of facing a side that can play pressure-free from here on in, Graham Potter will see this as a big opportunity to propel his side to Premier League safety.

Matheus Pereira (West Brom)

Price: £5.4m

Points: 120

West Brom's revival has probably come too late to preserve Sam Allardyce's record of never suffering relegation from the Premier League.

Having said that, they still boast one of the most exciting talents in the league in Brazilian maestro Matheus Pereira.

The playmaker has been their standout performer recently, providing three goals and two assists in his last two outings against Chelsea and Southampton.

West Brom's next opponents Aston Villa have one of the best defensive records in the season, conceding the third-fewest goals in the division.

But their form has fallen off a cliff since Jack Grealish's injury before Gameweek 25, which should give the Baggies hope of continuing their winning run.

Christian Pulisic (Chelsea)

Price: £8.3m

Points: 68

Christian Pulisic was expected to become one of Chelsea's key players under Thomas Tuchel given it was he who gave him his big break at Borussia Dortmund.

Injury problems and the good form of others has initially restricted his game-time, though.

However, the 22-year-old American is gradually rediscovering the explosive form he demonstrated at the back end of last season, to emerge as a key player once more.

Pulisic blanked against Brighton in midweek, but prior to that he had scored three goals and claimed 21 FPL points in his previous two outings.

Tuchel is bound to rotate his side against West Ham on Saturday given Chelsea face Real Madrid on Tuesday - with Pulisic almost certain to retain his place at the London Stadium.
