There are a lot of options on the ASX for income investors to choose from.

But which ASX income stocks could be top options this week?

Two that analysts are feeling bullish on are listed below. Here's what sort of dividend yields you can expect from them:

Dexus Convenience Retail REIT (ASX: DXC)

The first ASX income stock that analysts think could be a buy this week is Dexus Convenience Retail REIT. It is a property company with a focus on service stations and convenience retail assets located across Australia.

Bell Potter likes the company due partly to its attractive valuation. It commented:

[W]e see clear price discovery for DXC where there have been 53 petrol station transactions in CY23, proving up book value. Notwithstanding, DXC trades at a 27% discount to NTA and screens value to us.

In addition, the broker highlights the company's generous forecast dividend yields. It is expecting dividends per share of 20.7 cents in FY 2024 and 21.7 cents in FY 2025. Based on its current share price of $2.76, this equates to yields of 7.5% and 7.85%, respectively.

Bell Potter has a buy rating and $3.00 price target on its shares.

Super Retail Group Ltd (ASX: SUL)

Another ASX income stock that has been rated as a buy is Super Retail. It is the name behind popular retail brands BCF, Macpac, Rebel, and Supercheap Auto.

Goldman Sachs is very positive on the retailer and has buy rating and $17.80 price target on its shares.

The broker was impressed with Super Retail's performance in the first half of FY 2024, noting that "the 1H24 result was high quality and the strategic growth plan is intact." In addition, it likes the company due to its resilient brands. It adds:

We believe SUL will display resilience in a softer economic environment that is built upon its competitive advantage of high loyalty (~11.0m active members accounting for >75% of sales) and this will be further bolstered as the company launches the Rebel loyalty program and continues to build personalisation capabilities.

Goldman expects this to underpin fully franked dividends per share of 67 cents in FY 2024 and then 73 cents in FY 2025. Based on the latest Super Retail share price of $15.40, this will mean good yields of 4.35% and 4.75%, respectively.
