Serie A’s sixth round will unfold from Saturday 10 October to Monday 12 October, beginning with Genoa against Fiorentina at 15:00 and ending with Torino’s meeting with Udinese. For fantasy managers, the forward selections are divided into four groups: established leading options, players expected to return solid scores, possible value picks, and those facing a more difficult weekend.
Key takeaways
- The sixth Serie A matchday starts with Genoa-Fiorentina on Saturday 10 October.
- Torino-Udinese brings the round to a close on Monday 12 October.
- Malen, Lautaro Martinez, Pio Esposito and Hojlund are among the leading attacking selections.
- Scamacca, De Ketelaere, Kolo Muani, Dovbyk and Berardi sit in the next bracket of trusted options.
- Pinamonti, Castro, Beto and Isaksen are potential lower-tier choices with scope to contribute.
- Lucca, Gnonto, Vitinha and Cutrone are placed among the forwards who may struggle for returns or even minutes.
The principal forward choices
The first group is reserved for the attacking names most capable of carrying a fantasy line-up this weekend. It includes Malen, Lautaro Martinez, Pio Esposito, Douvikas, Gonçalo Ramos, Hojlund, Thuram, Dybala, Soulé and Diao.
The second band contains players expected to offer dependable performances and, potentially, decisive fantasy returns. Scamacca, Kvernadze, Varela, De Ketelaere, Simeone, Kolo Muani, Krstovic, Alajbegovic, Nico Gonzalez, Piccoli, Dovbyk, Woltemade, Bonny, Pellegrino, Mendy, Berardi, Davis and Romero belong in this category.
Value options and more uncertain calls
The third selection is made up of players who may still produce an acceptable score or offer an unexpected contribution, even if they begin the round behind others in the pecking order. Pinamonti, Castro, Beto, Sebastiano Esposito, Bowie, Osmajic, Yeboah, Njie, Adams, Isaksen, Lang, Lontani, Laurienté, Zeballos, Rowe, Geubbels, Cambiaghi, Stulic and Ghedjemis form this group.
The final tier covers forwards whose matchday outlook is less favourable, either because points may be hard to come by or because a playing rating is not assured. Lucca, Gnonto, Fatah, Fini, Vitinha, Diallo, Mota, Robinson, Antonio Rrahmani, Elphege, Camarda, Frigan, Touré, Bayo and Cutrone are the names to approach with greater caution.
