FPL Price Risers And Fallers After Gameweek 2 in 2025/26 Season

Fantasy Premier League 2025/26 has just started, as Gameweek 1 recently ended, with most managers busy setting up their second Gameweek team. From now on, the FPL managers will have to deal with the FPL price rises and falls, which aren’t easy to handle every time. In this week, we'll discuss FPL price risers and fallers after some high-quality Premier League games in Gameweek 1.

Who are FPL Price Risers?

After the beginning of Gameweek 1 of the new season, the FPL players’ prices change on a daily basis due to the impactful transfer activities by the FPL managers. If many managers record a transfer in for a player, the player can gain £0.1m for a day. Meanwhile, on the opposite side, if many managers record a transfer out for a player, the player can lose £0.1m per day. The player price changes happen overnight UK time. The FPL players' price changes also affect FPL managers' budgets, while the managers can earn or lose budget valuations, according to the changes in the players' valuations.

Even before the end of Gameweek 1 of the Premier League 2025/26, we got the examples of price risers in FPL. Initially, three players were named in the list of FPL price rises. Later, two more players have experienced FPL price rises, while more than 10 players have suffered price falls. Here, we are discussing the FPL price rises and falls after Gameweek 1 of the 2025/26 season.

FPL Price Risers after Gameweek 1 in 2025/26 Season

Let's take a look at who are the price risers FPL after the first gameweek:

Antoine Semenyo

Bournemouth’s Ghanaian forward Antoine Semenyo started the new Premier League season strongly despite his team suffering a 4-2 away defeat against the defending champions Liverpool. While the visitors were trailing by 2-0 at the season opener, Semenyo scored two goals to equalise the scoreline, but sadly, his team lost due to conceding late goals. With the help of three FPL bonus points, the Ghanaian earned 15 FPL points in the season opener. So, there is no doubt about his name in the list of early FPL price risers in the 2025/26 season.

The FPL midfielder Semenyo has now earned a £0.1m FPL price rise, as his latest FPL value is £7.1m. He has been selected by close to 10 per cent of FPL managers.

Hugo Ekitiké

The defending Premier League champions Liverpool started the new season with a thrilling 4-2 home win against Bournemouth. Liverpool’s newly signed French forward Hugo Ekitiké shone in that fixture after scoring one goal in the FA Community Shield match against Crystal Palace. In the new PL season opener, Ekitiké recorded one goal and one assist, which helped the FPL forward produce 11 FPL points, including two bonus points.

Surely, Ekitiké is now one of the new favourite names among the FPL managers, and he soon became one of the early FPL price risers in the 2025/26 season, while he has been selected by close to 20 per cent of FPL managers. His FPL value has gained £0.1m, as his present value is £8.6m.

Tijjani Reijnders

The Manchester City midfielder Tijjani Reijnders is one of the three early FPL price risers in the 2025/26 season. In their season opener, City thrashed the hosts Wolves by 4-0, and Reijnders recorded one goal and one assist in that fixture. The Dutch midfielder earned 10 FPL points in that opening gameweek fixture, and he has already been an FPL favourite for his convenient value since the new season became live. About 25 per cent of FPL managers have selected Reijnders, while the Dutch midfielder has gained £0.1m after the gameweek 1 match, as his new FPL value is £5.6m.

Chris Wood

Nottingham Forest forward Chris Wood started the new season strongly. While his team beat Brentford by 3-1 at home in the opening gameweek, Wood scored two goals and produced 13 FPL points, along with three bonus points. He is a player who remains a hot favourite during his good form, as he consistently brings in regular points.

Almost 19 per cent of FPL managers have selected the New Zealand forward, as he is in the list of early FPL price risers in the 2025/26 season. With the £0.1m value rise, Wood’s present FPL value is £7.6m.

Daniel Ballard

Sunderland centre-back Daniel Ballard is getting popular after his opening gameweek outing, where the promoted club defeated West Ham United by 3-0 at home. In that game, the Northern Ireland footballer scored a goal, finished with a clean sheet, recorded 14 CBIT to bring two defensive contribution points, and also recorded three bonus points to generate a total of 17 FPL points, the highest by any player in that opening gameweek.

As Sunderland will face another promoted club Burnley in the second gameweek, Ballard is now the favourite in the FPL. While more than 5 per cent of managers have selected him in the FPL, his valuation has risen by £0.1m to guide his latest FPL value to £4.6m. His and his team’s performances in the upcoming gameweeks will be very important to understand how strong his present FPL valuation is.

Already, four Manchester City players are victims of it, including two of the injured players, while Alexander Isak from Newcastle United is also on the list, as he is currently unavailable for the game.

The New Zealand forward has been selected by more than 23 per cent of FPL managers.

Dominic Solanke

Tottenham Hotspur striker Dominic Solanke is recovering from his ankle injury, as he played for less than 20 minutes in both of their first two fixtures in the new PL season. He has only generated two FPL points this season, as now fewer than three per cent of FPL managers have selected him. Although we are experiencing some price falls in his case, the situation will be better soon with his better fitness status.

Jarrod Bowen

While West Ham United have managed a very disappointing start in the new FPL season by suffering thrashing defeats against promoted Sunderland and Chelsea, English forward Jarrod Bowen has disappointed the FPL managers by delivering only four points in the first two games. At present, less than 10 per cent of FPL managers are holding him in the squad.
