From Hojlund to Politano: Napoli`s Early Season Fantasy Gems
Napoli has started the season strong, securing five wins and sharing the top spot with Roma after six Serie A matches. The reigning Italian champions, significantly bolstered during the summer transfer window, have quickly shown their determination to retain the Scudetto, unlike their performance two years prior. Their only setback so far was a defeat at San Siro against AC Milan, a game where the Partenopei played with a numerical advantage for much of the second half. Despite this loss, Antonio Conte`s squad leads the league, propelled by key contributions from established players like Anguissa, McTominay, and Spinazzola, as well as standout performances from new signings Kevin De Bruyne and Rasmus Hojlund. As the second international break commences, it`s an opportune moment to assess individual performances. Focusing solely on players with at least four rated appearances, here are Napoli`s top five fantasy football performers based on their average scores.
Napoli`s Top 5 Fantasy Players
After six matches, Napoli`s player with the highest fantasy average (7.9) is Rasmus Hojlund (58 credits). The former Manchester United forward scored on his debut against Fiorentina and again in the last round against Genoa. Kevin De Bruyne (56), another acquisition from Manchester City, shares the same impressive fantasy average. The Belgian maestro has already netted three goals against Sassuolo, Udinese, and Milan. Completing the top three is Zambo Anguissa, a stalwart in Conte`s squad, with a fantasy average of 7.8, boosted by two goals and an assist in the opening six fixtures. Fourth place goes to Leonardo Spinazzola, who boasts a fantasy average of 7.5, having contributed a goal and an assist so far. Rounding out the top five is Matteo Politano with a fantasy average of 6.8. The former Inter player has provided an assist and generally performed well, though he sustained an injury during the match against Genoa in the sixth round.
