FPL Price Changes: A Look Ahead to the Upcoming Gameweek
As FPL managers keep a close eye on their budgets, understanding the dynamics of player price changes can be crucial to maximizing team value. Tonight's price changes bring notable shifts for several players, impacting transfer decisions for the upcoming gameweek.
Players Set to Fall in Price
Anthony Gordon (Newcastle)
Price Change: Set to fall from £7.6m
Transfer Activity: 188,413 sales this gameweek
Form: 4.2
Ownership: 19.1%
Anthony Gordon's decline in price comes amid Newcastle's mixed performances. Despite his respectable form, his ownership has dipped as managers look for more consistent options. Newcastle's upcoming fixtures could see a resurgence if he regains form, offering potential value at a reduced price.
Amad Diallo (Man Utd)
Price Change: Set to fall from £5.6m
Transfer Activity: 86,744 sales this gameweek
Form: 6.8
Ownership: 21.6%
Despite decent form, Amad Diallo's price is dropping as Manchester United struggle to find consistency. His potential remains high, but managers may prefer to invest in more reliable performers until United stabilize.
Lewis Hall (Newcastle)
Price Change: Set to fall from £5.1m
Transfer Activity: 64,929 sales this gameweek
Form: 3.2
Ownership: 24.6%
Lewis Hall's drop in price reflects Newcastle's defensive vulnerabilities. Although offering budget-friendly defensive coverage, his appeal lessens unless Newcastle tighten up at the back.
Others Falling

Morgan Rogers is attracting attention due to Aston Villa's promising fixtures. While his form lags, the upcoming matches could see an upturn, making him a popular budget-friendly option.
Justin Kluivert (Bournemouth)
Price Change: Set to rise from £5.9m
Transfer Activity: 170,242 purchases this gameweek
Form: 12.3
