Choosing the best Fantasy Premier League defenders for your team is no easy task. So, using the power of AI, we can give you a great idea as to the players you should consider buying in Gameweek 35.

There was a time when the job of a full-back was just to defend their side of the pitch and occasionally get forward. Nowadays, it’s almost mandatory for a full-back or a wing-back to get forward, support the attack, and even get into the box.

With all this in mind, let’s use data from FantasyFootballHub AI to help you select the best Fantasy Premier League defenders for Gameweek 35 and beyond.

AI predicts FPL Gameweek 35 points: Top 10 Defenders

We’ve already seen some spectacular performances from certain defenders this season in FPL, but there are plenty more to come. So, with that in mind, the FFH AI has picked out the players expected to earn the most points in Gameweeks 35-37, just in case you want to make some defensive changes or even play your Wildcard.

1Ben Chilwell5.421
2Nathan Ake5.421
3Rico Lewis8.420

6Ben Davies5.019
7Ruben Dias6.619
8Andrew Robertson4.318
9Trent Alexander-Arnold5.218
10Cristian Romero5.018

Chelsea and Manchester City defenders are leading the way by far for the next few weeks when it comes to expected points, with a combined five players in the top 10, which is topped by Chelsea’s Ben Chilwell.

Not only that, but budget option Gusto, who has a Double Gameweek in GW35, is projected to score highly in the coming weeks.

The AI is putting some faith in Liverpool’s Robertson and Alexaner-Arnold, but the Reds were run ragged in the Merseyside Derby. So, be cautious.
