Top 5 Budget Strikers for GW8

Brighton & Hove Albion v Wigan Athletic - Sky Bet Championship
Glenn Murray

The biggest dilemma for FPL managers this season has been choosing the right combination up front.

With all the premium forwards firing on all cylinders this season, many have decided to spend big on attack and compensate for that in the midfield department.

However, with the return to form of premium mids like Hazard, Sanchez and Coutinho and the injuries to Morata and Aguero, we look at some cheaper(<£6.5) strike options for GW8.

#5 Glenn Murray (Brighton- £5.7)

He might not have scored a goal in the Premier League but Brighton relied heavily on his goals to secure a promotion from the Championship.

Brighton are playing a low on confidence Everton side who have the second-worst goal difference in the league. With Hemed out for another 2 game weeks, Murray will be leading the line against Everton on Sunday and would be looking to cement his place in the line up with a good performance.

At £5.7, he'll be a good bet considering the easy fixtures ahead as Brighton have a good playmaker in Gross who will create many chances for Murray to score from.
