Free Hit Differentials For FPL Gameweek 13

Gameweek 13 offers a rare chance for Free Hit managers to break away from the template and target low-owned players with real upside.

With several standout fixtures on the slate, these differentials can provide huge gains for anyone looking to climb the ranks quickly:

Kevin Schade is exactly the type of high-upside differential that can separate a Free Hit team from the pack.

Burnley have conceded the highest expected goals in the league this season, and Schade’s direct, explosive style makes him a prime candidate to take advantage.

He is also sitting on four yellow cards, which will deter many managers, keeping his ownership extremely low. If he hauls, the gains could be massive.

Sepp van den Berg is a budget gem with almost no ownership. Brentford sit just behind Manchester City in clean sheet odds this week, and van den Berg has been extremely reliable for defensive contributions.

In every match where Brentford have played a back four, he has produced at least nine defensive contribution points. With Brentford expected to line up with a back four again, he offers a stable floor at a bargain price.

Matty Cash remains the standout Aston Villa defender, offering both attacking and defensive potential. He has taken set pieces this season and now faces a Wolves side that has scored the fewest goals in the Premier League.

Wolves are also the only team yet to reach double digits for goals, making Cash’s clean sheet odds strong. With the added threat going forward, he is an ideal Free Hit differential.

Phil Foden looks like the safest Manchester City attacker to own besides Haaland, especially without any early leaks.

He has started each of City’s last nine Premier League matches and now has a plum home fixture against Leeds. With such low ownership, his ceiling becomes hugely appealing.

Elliot Anderson is quietly one of the most underrated FPL assets this season. He leads the league for defensive contributions and consistently offers a reliable four-point baseline even before factoring in attacking contributions.

With set-piece involvement and a good matchup against a vulnerable Brighton defence, he is a sharp differential pick for those seeking steady returns with sneaky upside.
