Fantasy Premier League has made its biggest change in years this week as it announced a brand new game mode known as FPL Challenge.

This version allows players to make unlimited transfers in order to meet a specific rule set by the game.

For the opening week of the game mode, users will be allowed to pick a squad with an unlimited budget, and an appealing fixture for Chelsea this week could see players looking their direction for players.

Here are three players The Chelsea Chronicle believe should be in your team for this week.

Perhaps the obvious choice from Stamford Bridge, Cole Palmer has been a revelation for those who had faith in him early on in the game cycle this year.

Starting low in value, the England international has seen his price grow near enough every week.

However, with that not an issue it is his value on the pitch that means people should be looking to bring him in this week.

The fact that he takes penalties, and certainly won’t be giving his next one up after what happened with Raheem Sterling last time out, he has the added opportunity to find the net that everyone else on his side does not.

With 11 goals and eight assists in just 23 Premier League games so far this season, you would back him to be involved in some capacity on Saturday when relegation-threatened Burnley arrive at Stamford Bridge.

Clean sheets have been at a premium for Chelsea this season, however the upcoming fixture is one more than most where you would hope the Blues can shutout their opposition.

However, Malo Gusto offers just as much threat going forwards as many wingers, and is reportedly going to be fit for the return of the Premier League return.

The Frenchman is already on five assists in the Premier League, and is a constant danger down the right whenever Chelsea attack.

Linking up a lot with the aformentioned Palmer to get into crossing positions, it remains to be seen if there will be anyone up to the task of finishing those chances on Saturday.

Nicolas Jackson

Since returning from the African Cup of Nations, it has been a run of either a goal or assist in six of his last seven starts for Nicolas Jackson.

The Senegal international has actually proven to be essential in the starting team up to now, and looks equally as dangerous both on the left and down the middle.

The creativity from the likes of Palmer and Gusto has created a number of chances for him this season, however his recent assist against Leicester showed he has the capabilities to create goals all by himself.

He found the net against Burnley last time despite coming off the bench, and will be hungry to make it double digits for the season on Saturday.
