Strengthen your defence with this Fantasy Premier League tips Gameweek 26 defenders round-up and unlock your fantasy football potential.

Recommended defender picks for this Gameweek include players from Leicester City, Everton, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United, Fulham and Crystal Palace.

🌟 Ricardo Pereira LEI, £5.9

Back from injury and reminded of his potential for attacking returns with a few decent efforts on goal at Villa, and Leicester are flying at the moment.

They’ve got a Double Gameweek of fixtures at home to Arsenal and away to Burnley, and you wouldn’t back against them winning and keeping a clean sheet in either of those.

🌟 Lucas Digne EVE, £6.1

A bit of a gamble in terms of Everton’s defensive inconsistency, but he’s a consistent assister and plays at home to Southampton and away to West Brom.

🌟 Sergio Reguilón TOT, £5.5

See Digne: not guaranteed clean sheets, even at home to Burnley and away to Fulham, but there could be attacking points in there.

🌟 Luke Shaw MUN, £5.1

Another whose assist potential is in inverse proportionality to his likelihood of a clean sheet, Shaw plays away to Chelsea and Crystal Palace.

🌟 Ola Aina FUL, £4.5

Fulham have kept three clean sheets in four going into their DGW26 matches away to Crystal Palace and home to Spurs.

🌟 Tyrick Mitchell CRY, £3.9

Started the win at Brighton on Monday night so he looks likely to be a sub-£4 starter at home to Fulham and Man Utd.
