Best Promoted Players For Your Fantasy Premier League 2021/22 Team

When picking your fantasy football team ahead of the new season, it's easy to focus on established Premier League players - but this is where you could be going wrong.

Norwich City, Watford and Brentford were the three teams that achieved promotion from the Championship to the Premier League last season.

Once more, usual suspects such as Kevin De Bruyne, Mohamed Salah and Harry Kane will be bought by millions of managers, but a £100m transfer budget means that books have to be balanced.

While some managers may be unwilling to gamble on unproven players early on, SPORTbible takes a look at some promoted players that are well worth considering.

Brentford arrive in the Premier League with the worst defensive record of all three promoted teams, however, they had the lowest expected goals conceded in the entire division.

The Bees' number one 'keeper in David Raya could offer value priced at just £4.5m - though their ability to control matches will be tested in the world's toughest league.

Watford were the best defensive side from the promoted teams, conceding the least goals in the Championship last season (30) and also kept the most clean sheets (23).

And after Daniel Bachmann's stellar performances for Austria during this summer's Euro 2020, we're backing the 27-year-old to continue his fine form between the sticks.

Norwich City's attack-minded right-back Max Aarons hasn't yet morphed into an assist machine, supplying only two in the Championship last season.

Tom Cantwell broke into Norwich's Premier League side season two years ago, scoring six goals and provided a couple of assists.

Bryan Mbeumo had a solid year with Brentford in the Championship last season, picking up eight goals and ten assists.

With Watford captain Troy Deeney back in the Premier League, you could perhaps be the most certain of any asset here of what your bargain might bring you.

Since his Newcastle United days, Brentford's Ivan Toney hasn't kicked a ball in the Premier League for over five years.
