for Aston Villa last term.<\/p>\n<p>Making only seven starts, Bailey managed a goal and three assists over the campaign.<\/p>\n<p>However, he has been a regular during the club\u2019s summer schedule so far, starting each of their three friendlies.<\/p>\n<p>Bailey has produced a goal and an assist over those outings, strengthening his claim ahead of a hugely favourable short-term schedule.<\/p>\n<p>According to the <a href=/index.html"https:\/\/fantasy.premierleague.com\/fixtures\/fdr\">Fixture Difficulty Ratings<\/a> (FDR), each of Villa\u2019s first three matches against AFC

season.<\/p>\n<p>Pereira was handed an advanced central role behind lone striker Aleksandar Mitrovic (\u00a36.5m) on his debut against Benfica last weekend.<\/p>\n<p>He made an immediate impact, supplying an assist for Mitrovic&#8217;s strike in a 5-1 loss.<\/p>\n<p>Pereira has quickly emerged as the go-to budget midfielder for managers ahead of the new season.<\/p>\n<p>He is the fourth most-owned player in his position, found in over 22 per cent of squads.<\/p>\n<h6><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pedro_Neto_WOL_55m\"><\/span>Pedro Neto (WOL) \u00a35.5m<span
