Best FPL Budget Picks GW2: Value Players Under £6m
Best budget picks by position
GKP: Caoimhín Kelleher (£5.0m) - 3.4 xPBrentford's new number one offers excellent value at just £5.0m. Despite a tricky away fixture at Leeds (FDR 3), Kelleher's 3.4 expected points and decent points-per-million ratio of 0.68 make him a solid set-and-forget option in this price bracket. With just 6.3% ownership, he's a viable differential who won't break the bank. DEF: Reece James (£5.5m) - 5.0 xP
The standout budget defender for GW2. James faces Brighton at home with a favorable FDR of 2 and boasts an impressive 5.0 expected points. His 0.91 points-per-million is exceptional value, with a 38.9% clean sheet probability adding 0.78 xP from defensive returns alone. At 10.2% ownership, he's becoming essential at this price point. MID: Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall (£6.5m) - 4.5 xP
Everton's new midfielder stretches the budget ceiling but delivers strong projections with 4.5 expected points. The trip to Bournemouth carries FDR 3, but Dewsbury-Hall's attacking threat justifies the investment. Owned by just 4.3%, he's an under-the-radar enabler who offers genuine upside rather than bench fodder. FWD: Evanilson (£6.0m) - 4.1 xP
Bournemouth's summer signing from Porto hosts Everton with 4.1 expected points. At just 2.7% ownership, the Brazilian forward is a genuine differential. While the FDR of 3 suggests a competitive fixture, Evanilson's price point makes him an intriguing third striker option for those seeking budget rotation.
