Arsenal FPL differentials: Timber, Guimaraes, Havertz for GW6

Fantasy Football Scout has highlighted three Arsenal players as key differentials ahead of Gameweek 6, as the Premier League resumes with Arsenal hosting Leeds United this weekend.

Defender Jurrien Timber (£6.5m) is owned by just 0.4% of FPL managers after missing the start of the season through injury. The 25-year-old Dutch international made his first league start of the campaign in Gameweek 5 and posted impressive underlying numbers in 2025/26, finishing first among all Arsenal defenders for shots in the box (24), big chances (8), chances created (27) and expected goal involvement (6.38) across 28 starts. He accumulated 149 FPL points that season, including three goals, six assists and 13 clean sheets.

Midfielder Bruno Guimaraes (£6.7m) is selected by fewer than 2% of Fantasy managers despite also making his first league start of the season in Gameweek 5. The 28-year-old Brazilian, a summer signing from Newcastle United, came off the bench in Gameweek 4 to score at the Stadium of Light and returned seven FPL points. Over his three seasons at Newcastle, Guimaraes accumulated 442 FPL points and 43 attacking returns, with last campaign his best-ever FPL season.

In attack, there is uncertainty over Kai Havertz (£7.6m) after he withdrew from Germany duty. The striker has started all five league games this season, scoring twice, and ranks second among Arsenal players for shots (10), big chances (2) and expected goals (1.67). He is owned by 8.3% of FPL managers.

Should Havertz miss the Leeds fixture, Viktor Gyokeres (£7.1m) is identified as an alternative. The Swedish forward, in 3% of teams, scored three times in two starts against Leeds last season and registered the first double-digit FPL haul of his career in the Emirates fixture.
