Choosing the best Fantasy Premier League defenders for your team is no easy task. So, using the power of AI, we can give you a great idea as to the players you should consider buying in Gameweek 29.
There was a time when the job of a full-back was just to defend their side of the pitch and occasionally get forward. Nowadays, it’s almost mandatory for a full-back or a wing-back to get forward, support the attack, and even get into the box.
The Premier League is packed with incredible talent, and some of the fullbacks the league boasts are second to none.
With all this in mind, let’s use data from FantasyFootballHub AI to help you select the best Fantasy Premier League defenders for Gameweek 29 and beyond.

Like the best Free Hit and best Wildcard teams, AI doesn’t have a huge crop of players to choose from this week due to blank fixtures.
However, it does love Spurs’ backline, which is proven by Guglielmo Vicario being near the top of the goalkeeper charts. Obviously, this is just how AI sees things and you may have some other ideas that prove to be better in the long run.
