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.
And each of those sides possess assets that stood out and should, therefore, be considered in your Fantasy Premier League team, but which players should you include?

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.
Advert
At the start of the season, promoted clubs generally offer better value than more established sides and are, as a result, a reasonable place to start when assembling your 15-man squad.
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.
David Raya (Brentford)
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.
Advert
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.
Price: £4.5m
Gameweek 1 fixture: Arsenal (h)
Daniel Bachmann (Watford)
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).
Advert
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.
Price: £4.5m
Gameweek 1 fixture: Aston Villa (h)
Max Aarons (Norwich City)
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.
Advert
However, having said that, he does looks to be the best pick out of Norwich's defensive options.
Price: £4.5m
Gameweek 1 fixture: Liverpool (h)
Rico Henry (Brentford)
Rico Henry was selected in the Championship Team of the Season after another exceptional campaign at left-back.
Advert
Henry provides plenty of chances from that area of the pitch and was Brentford's most creative defender last season, fashioning 25 chances.
Price: £4.5m
Gameweek 1 fixture: Arsenal (h)
Tom Cantwell (Norwich City)
Tom Cantwell broke into Norwich's Premier League side season two years ago, scoring six goals and provided a couple of assists.
Having attracted interest from several top clubs last season, Cantwell decided to stay at Norwich and looks sure to be included in a fair few fantasy teams this season.
Price: £5.5m
Gameweek 1 fixture: Liverpool (h)
Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford)
Bryan Mbeumo had a solid year with Brentford in the Championship last season, picking up eight goals and ten assists.
We're expecting Mbeumo to burst onto the Premier League scene and, with his price standing generous at just £5.5m, he looks a serious bargain for a midfielder of his calibre.
Price: £5.5m
Gameweek 1 fixture: Arsenal (h)
Troy Deeney (Watford)
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.
At his incredibly low price, Deeney represents a pretty good deal if, of course, medical issues don't get the better of him.
Price: £5.5m
Gameweek 1 fixture: Aston Villa (h)
Ivan Toney (Brentford)
Since his Newcastle United days, Brentford's Ivan Toney hasn't kicked a ball in the Premier League for over five years.
Despite that, the 25-year-old is currently the most-owned forward in FPL, ahead of established big-hitters like Kane - whom he is almost half the price of.
Price: £6.5m
Gameweek 1 fixture: Arsenal (h)
