Julio Enciso claimed his first double-digit haul of the season with 10 Fantasy Premier League points against Nottingham Forest as Ipswich Town collaborated with Fantasy Football Scout to deliver tactical hints for Gameweek 9.
Fantasy & Market Impact
- Enciso Valuation: Priced at £5.5m, the Paraguayan midfielder ranks as Ipswich’s second-highest scorer overall with 29 total points.
- Budget Differential: Goalkeeper Christian Walton offers a high-value differential route at just £4.4m with under 0.5% ownership.
Julio Enciso Emerges as Ipswich Town’s Creative Core
Across the opening eight fixtures, Enciso has racked up 29 points, scoring one goal and assisting two alongside three bonus points. The 22-year-old has registered 23 shots so far this campaign, taking the most attempts amongst his Ipswich colleagues. He has hit the target with seven of those shots, while six have come inside the box.

Only teammate Emersonn, also priced at £5.5m, has taken more shots inside the box than Enciso among the Ipswich squad. Furthermore, the midfielder has created seven chances for his teammates this campaign, of which three are classed as big chances. That tally leaves Enciso sitting right behind Abdul Fatawu (£5.4m) among his colleagues in the creative metrics.
Christian Walton Offers Low-Ownership Differential Value
Starting the previous four league games, Christian Walton represents a budget-friendly goalkeeper option for managers ahead of the weekend deadline. Falling firmly into differential territory at just 0.5% ownership across all teams, the £4.4m asset provides a clean differential path for mini-league gains. In the official game, any player under 10% owned qualifies as a differential pick capable of shifting overall ranks.
Over the games he has started, Walton has collected an extra point for the number of saves he has made in three separate fixtures. The rules reward goalkeepers with one extra point for every three saves completed, which accumulate toward Bonus Points rankings. Those extra save points, combined with a clean sheet, form the blueprint for significant defensive returns for managers backing the Ipswich keeper.

EFL Cup Rotation and Squad Management
With heavy Premier League involvement in the EFL Cup during midweek, managers must monitor emerging team news closely ahead of the upcoming fixtures. Team selections, load management, and potential injuries will dictate transfer strategies before the weekend deadline. Ensuring maximum roster information is essential as squads navigate congested fixture schedules.
