Strengthen your defence with this Fantasy Premier League tips Gameweek 2 defenders round-up and unlock your fantasy football potential.

Recommended selections this week include players from West Bromwich Albion, Southampton and Burnley.

Ahmed El-Sayed Hegazi, WBA – £4.6m

Marked his West Brom debut by scoring the winner from a set piece against Bournemouth, and next up he plays an admittedly tricky away game at Burnley.

Maya Yoshida, SOU – £5m

Just one of the affordable Southampton defenders looking to follow an opening day clean sheet against Swansea with another at home to West Ham.

Stephen Ward, BUR – £4.5m

Scored in the shock 3-2 win at Chelsea and has a home game against low-scoring West Brom up next.

Good luck and happy selecting!
