A disrupted Gameweek 28 fixture list delivers just three matches for Saturday afternoon.

Much of our focus will be on the events at Goodison Park, with this week’s leader of the Captain Poll Romelu Lukaku in action against his former side West Bromwich Albion.

The Everton striker is the second most bought player this week, attracting over 363,000 new owners, having returned in each of his last four home outings. The Belgian will be seeking his 19th goal of the season which would represent his biggest ever Premier League season haul; it’s worth noting, however, that the Toffees have failed to score in their last three home encounters against the Baggies.

Swansea City’s Fernando Llorente was the major transfer bandwagon heading into Gameweeks 28 on the back of his brace in the 3-2 win over Burnley. His 375,000 new owners will be hoping he and Gylfi Sigurdsson can produce once again when the Swans travel to Hull City – the Icelander has produced returns in seven of his last eight Gameweeks.

Bournemouth will be looking to put an end to their run of eight matches without a win when they entertain West Ham United on the south coast.

Josh King, who has scored five goals in his last six appearances, could be the key man for the Cherries once again. Meanwhile, the Hammers will look to Andy Carroll and Michail Antonio to inflict the damage. Back from a one-match suspension, the latter will be hoping to end a run of eight matches without a goal – his longest dry spell of the season.

    Does anyone have a list of the teams who have upcoming double game weeks?

    I know we expect the big one to be gwk 37, but there should also be another. Anyone know when that should be scheduled also? Cheers.

      Everyone who's blanked will have one but we don't know when yet

      1. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Not if they play midweek in GW34 after a blank at the weekend.

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Can't tell at the moments as some of the rearranged match will be in GW34 that also has blanks.

        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers, thats interesting. Not managed to frequent this place as much this season, so a little out the loop. I'm considering the wildcard right as my teams a little all over the show, after too decent weeks though.

          9 years, 1 month ago

          The following won't have DGW's

          Everton
          Liverpool
          Hull
          Swansea
          WHU
          Stoke

          Arsenal and either Southampton or United will have two.

          The rest will have one or two depending on GW34 blanks.

          1. TheDogTor
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

  5. Foozeball
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Snodgrass -> Alli
    Or Llorente -> Kane?

    I only have enough funds to do one, unless I take a -8 and transfer Baines for a defender of 4.8 or less

  6. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    King is 4th on top scorers list now with 11 goals, incredible season he's having

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      4th within the midfielders *

    2. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      For midfielders???
      Don't think 11 goals is 4th overall

      1. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        For mids

    3. Sims

  8. Sims
    • 9 Years

    1. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ditto for me...modest move from 20K -> 16K OR with 46(-8)

      Mane and Coutinho to go...might get a bit more out of this GW

  9. 824545201
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I shouldn't have benchwankered.

    I'm really interested how much i've risen today.

    1. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago
