Double Gameweek 37 enters its fifth day of action this evening, serving up two more fixtures to entertain Fantasy managers.

Arsenal welcome Sunderland to the Emirates in the 7.45pm kick-off as Alexis Sanchez looks to add to his goal and assist haul in Saturday’s demolition of Stoke.

Captained by 10.6% of FPL managers, the Chilean is the second most popular armband pick for the Gameweek. As expected, he has shrugged off a leg problem to start against the Black Cats, while fellow weekend scorers Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud are also named in the first XI as Arsene Wenger’s side attempt to keep their hopes of a top-four finish alive.

Man City entertain West Bromwich Albion in the second match of their Double Gameweek at 8pm.

Sergio Aguero returns to the starting XI alongside Gabriel Jesus as Raheem Sterling drops to the bench for the home side. The Argentine produced zero points as a sub at home to Leicester on Saturday, though boasting a 17% ownership, he is City’s most captained player (8.1%) for their pair of fixtures.

The top transfer target for Double Gameweek 37, Jesus rewarded his 217,000+ new owners with an eight-point haul against the Foxes, while Leroy Sane’s 7% backers will be hoping for more of the same after he delivered a season-high 11 points in the weekend win.

    Sell Alli or Hazard for Coutinho?

        Hazard

        billion dollar question

      • S.Agueroooooo
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        perhaps neither? Is there a weak player in your team this week that could be changed for a higher chance of guaranteed points.

        Both of those could outscore coutinho

    3. Delhidynamo
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Exact money for

      Haz and Gabbi âž¡ Lallana and Diego

      tempting

      1. Jayv807
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I was thinking Diego to Vardy, worried Costa's care factor is low

        1. S.Agueroooooo
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          expect there is a better transfer you can do

          1. Jayv807
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Probably, I will likely join the cout bandwagon and bring him in for Ozil. But I wouldn't bring Costa in if I didn't have him already.

    4. Just Been On Loan
      • 9 Years

      Alexis Sanchez you beautiful beautiful man.

      3 weeks ago, I'd accepted my fate of 2nd in my ML, with 1st somehow 117 points ahead.

      Last night I overtook him to go top. Must be plenty of similar stories...

      1. Sgt. Schultz
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        FPL gives us all a new lease of life

      2. Jayv807
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Similar for me, 107 pts down after GW35. Ml leader had Sanchez but TC'd Costa. I'm up 15 now.

      3. Shifty
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        :O not as big a gap as that, but yea Sanchez has put me in pole position in mine out of nowhere

      4. Triple C
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Same here man, was some 100points behind, now I'm on top with 67 ahead of the second and 4 more players to go.... 🙂

      5. Live Lad
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I had him most of the time this season. After watching him play earlier in the season, I was determined to keep him whenever fit.

      So sorry (bottomed - and this is important to me)
      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      I think there's a bug in the FPL monthly league table (and I play in a monthly cash game) !!!!!

      If the first wee of the Month has a hit it ISN'T subtracted from the monthly score. Only subsequent week's hits are .

      Can someone check this for me, please ?
      And if it's the case, WTF?

      1. FrankieTheGent
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        *week

        I'm calling bs you aren't sorry at all

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          True. And I got a reply on the previous page to boot.
          In all seriousness this is incredibly incompetant from FPL

          1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            It's bizarre if you aren't missing something . I'm on the bus on way to work so I can't check

      3. MTPockets
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Yeah pretty sure I've read about that before.

          1. FrankieTheGent
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Good grief !

            1. MTPockets
                8 years, 6 months ago

                I'd forgotten about it but:

                FPL - Rules - Leagues - Classic Scoring
                "...Any transfer point deductions in the Gameweek before a phase starts won't be deducted from the phase score. For example, any transfers made in Gameweek 3 (preparing for Gameweek 4) won't be deducted from your September score."

          2. GivetNgog
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Afraid that's correct - debatable whether the right policy, but they do state this in the rules (Help > Rules > Leagues > Classic scoring). Assume it's done so people can prepare for a particular month with impunity, and thus encourage more to do so. Should at least be taken off the previous month's score (the week it's actually made) but sounds like it's not...

            1. FrankieTheGent
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Genuinely gob-smacked

        • AA33
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Will Costa and Pedro start in GW 38?

            1. Delhidynamo
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              I'm a little worried about Bats getting a continued run in

            2. bigbudgie
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Costa I think yes. Pedro I don't know.

          • Bubz
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Would you play Monreal (EVE) or Stephens (STO)?

            1. Jam0sh
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Monreal

            2. Sgt. Schultz
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Stephens sure to start ? Monreal I would say

            3. MTPockets
                8 years, 6 months ago

                Stephens

            4. Shifty
              • 12 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Front 8 AOA for GW38 at the moment. 2FT, 0 in bank. Thoughts?

              Sanchez Hazard Eriksen King Albrighton
              Kane Jesus Gabbiadini

              A) Hazard + Albrighton + Gabbiadini > Coutinho + Fabregas + Lolrente (-4)
              B) Hazard + Albrighton > Coutinho + Fabregas. and hope Gabbi plays on AOA
              C) Do B...ditch AOA and play Monreal over Gabbi.

              Thanks

              1. Shifty
                • 12 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                Argh mistake again - C) is Bailly over Gabbi

              2. Jayv807
                • 8 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                I'd play Albrighton, been playing well and plays BOU at home. Just do Haz to cout and Gabbi to best you can afford.

                1. Shifty
                  • 12 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  Cheers Jayv.

                  I could afford Hazard > Coutinho, Gabbi > Vardy...funded by Bailly/Monreal > cheapie (-4).

                  Probably worth a hit and you're right...LEI could do very well, last home game of a season they need to make right for their fans.

            5. Karan_G14
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Chances of De Bruyne being benched against Watford?

              Thinking of doing Hazard to Kdb!

              1. Sgt. Schultz
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                plays a major part if Pep has any sense.

            6. Tomcooper9

              • 10 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Who's been your personal favourite and least favourite FPL player this year?

              For me, favourite has been Sanchez - pretty much always produced when captained and got some big hauls (closely followed by Lukaku who seemed to be predictable for when he would get points)

              Least favourite has been Hazard - never had him at the right times and never seemed to get big points when expected.

              1. Shifty
                • 12 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                Favourite - Sanchez, Lukaku, Mane

                Least favourite - Hazard (owned him 3 times, no returns), Barkley, Aguero (just wasn't worth it this season especially as there's always "pressure" to captain him)

                1. Shifty
                  • 12 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  i'd add Firmino to the least favourite as well. Just so unpredictable.

              2. Dreams
                • 8 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                Favorite has been Lord Heaton. Least favorite has to be Viktor Fischer. I was expecting him to be the next Eriksen.

                1. Tomcooper9
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 10 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  Ah yes Heaton has been another great - lots of 'unexpected' point

                  1. Dreams
                    • 8 Years
                    8 years, 6 months ago

                    Just loved owning that guy.

              3. Jayv807
                • 8 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                Favourite Sanchez and Ibra, had Ibra when he went on his run before my rivals.

                Least are stones, Cedric and Daniels. Owned stones 3 weeks - 2pts total, swapped to Cedric and 3 weeks - 1pt, swapped to Daniels and 4 weeks - 2pts. Worst stretch of my year.

                1. Tomcooper9
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 10 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  Had a similar thing early on with Baines, said minor injury and he ended up being out for around 5 GWs

              4. GENERATION X
                • 12 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                Defenders like Alonso McAuley and Walker plus Heaton have kept my season alive long term.

                Special mention Eriksen - my one (C) punt on him yielded 38 points and started the comeback from 400000 odd to 1322 now

            7. Jam0sh
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Good morning everyone. 10 points behind top 1k and contemplating possible moves for GW38. Naturally two games left of GW37 but if the distance stays the same how would you approach the final gameweek? Here are my transfer ideas:

              Caballero
              Alonso, Vertonghen, Yoshida
              Hazard, Sanchez, Alli, King
              Costa, Kane, Jesus

              subs: Pickford, Stephens, T.Carroll, Maguire --- 2 FT, 0.0 ITB

              A) Hazard & Caballero -> Coutinho & Mignolet
              B) Hazard & Maguire (to fund KDB) -> KDB & Fernandez
              C) Hazard & Costa -> Coutinho/KDB & Sturridge
              D) Something else, what?

              1. Shifty
                • 12 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                AOA intact?

                1. Jam0sh
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 13 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  No chips left

                  1. Shifty
                    • 12 Years
                    8 years, 6 months ago

                    Like the sound of C.

                    Would focus the transfers on attackers, for starters. And the Home ones.

                    1. Jam0sh
                      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                      • 13 Years
                      8 years, 6 months ago

                      Cheers Shifty. Somehow I'm also tempted to keep Costa as I think he will start. However there could be an upside in Sturridge which I'll most possibly also need to catch top 1k.

                    2. Jam0sh
                      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                      • 13 Years
                      8 years, 6 months ago

                      If I do Costa -> Sturridge would you get Coutinho or KDB in for Hazard? Going GW38 without Chelsea attacker doesn't feel too good though.

                      1. Shifty
                        • 12 Years
                        8 years, 6 months ago

                        Tough one that, I might be more tempted by KDB given form. Coutinho and Liverpool are a bit unpredictable...if you feel comfortable with a Liverpool strong win, a double up is still a good idea.

                        Considering the same re: Chelsea (Hazard out, Fab/Willian in), but I was quite surprised by Sunderland last night. Seems like they took Wenger's comments quite personally.

            8. Dacra
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Complete raffle who plays in 38 then?

            9. _Gunner
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Pick 2 defenders to play next GW:

              A- Davies
              B- Yoshida
              C- Monreal
              D- Gibbs

              1. Dreams
                • 8 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                A C. You were right yesterday. Gibbs started.

                1. _Gunner
                  • 11 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  Thanks mate

                  Was really hoping for some Gibbs points.

                  1. Dreams
                    • 8 Years
                    8 years, 6 months ago

                    Didn't he last 60 mins?

                      • 11 Years
                      8 years, 6 months ago

                      yes.

                      I meant I was hoping for some points after the 0 he got me in the first match

                      1. Dreams
                        • 8 Years

              Who is more important for next GW?
              a)Jesus
              b)Coutinho

              Surely silly not to keep costa if you already own?

              Also, is Coutinho worth 4 more points than Lallana? Would need to take a hit to do Sterling to Coutinho but can do Sterling to Lallana for free.

              Cheers

              Ddg pickford owners.

              As DDG has played his last game for utd you getting rid in 38 or playing Pickford?

                Well I'm 12pts up in mini league with my Kane vs his Gabbi and Davies to play.

                If my lead is somewhat intact, I might consider a hit of DeGea to Heaton to cover rival. Worried about a clean sheet and bonus pts on the last day at Turf Moore

                Pickford could be slaughtered against Chelsea, he has 11 saves yesterday but lots of this were straight at him. If Chelsea turn it on, theyll be tucking their efforts way so Pickford's save potential will be limited I feel

                  Not worth a -4 though?

                    Difficult to say. It's so easy to lose the clean sheet at any time and maybe Pickford ends on 3 and your replacement ends on 2,your down 5pts.

                    For OR, I don't think the points potential outweighs the points lost, especially for one week

              121 points with 8 players left. 17 points behind league leader, he has 7 players left, all different. Dramaaaa!

                Dont think Gabbi will play. They were much improved in attack without him.

                Stephens maybe.

              That smug moment when you start to think you made the right move with Jesus (c) as he assists KDB just after scoring and you do the permutations....
              The smugness turns to in-trepidation on 72 mins when Alexis names flashes on the screen and you do the maths thinking not so bad Jesus still ahead and Sanchez devoid of bonus anyway....so much time for de Jesus to gain anyway due to the staggered kick offs..... still reasonably smug.....
              Boom your worst fears realised as you cheer on a City team you detest and a familiar name flashes on the screen again..... smug turns to rage..... even owning him doesn't feel enough......alll those TC ....... why did I go Jesus over Alexis....I hate this game.....now I have to face all those 'scorechecks' and smugness on scout....why do I play?....At least Willy has kept his c.s. I needed that just to balance up with Pickford ridiculous save tally.....

                Oh relax, at least you had him. I captained Jesus over Sanchez too. I wasted my TC on Aguero in the first double week!

                  Fantasy Football Scout daily hot topic

                  Home Comforts in Gameweek 38.

                  Gameweek 38 historically has an above average number of goals.

                  But as discussed on last night’s Scoutcast this is particularly the case for home sides, who are looking to impress their own fans before the summer break.

                  Here’s a look at the last two seasons to show how potent a GWK 38 home clash can be for a side.

                  2015/16

                  There were no away wins.

                  Goals scored by home sides: 26
                  Goals scored by away sides: 9
                  Notable matches: Arsenal 4-0 Villa, Everton 3-0 Norwich, Newcastle 5-1 Spurs, Southampton 4-1 Palace

                  2014/15

                  Two away wins – Burnley v Villa, Spurs v Everton both 1-0

                  Goals scored by home sides: 23
                  Goals scored by away sides: 6
                  Notable matches: Arsenal 4-0 West Brom, Chelsea 3-1 Sunderland, Stoke 6-1 Liverpool, Lei 5-1 QPR

                  It looks like loading up attackers from home sides looks key.

                  With this in mind who will you be captaining and transferring in this week?

                    • 12 Years

                    8 years, 6 months ago

                    With this in mind I should drop Eriksen over Hazard for Coutinho then!

                      Newcastle 5-1 Spurs last season. You could be right.

                    I will be transferring in Sturridge for Costa. Captaining Holgate because of a prior commitment.

                      Costa could punish you on what could be his last home game for Chelsea...A brace looks to be on the cards here...

                        He has punished me enough this season by getting 1 or 2 points. I don't want him in my team anymore.

                    The obvious one of Hazard to Coutinho for the ft, then for a hit do JWP or Alli for another home playing midfielder who looks up for it.
                    The armband to Kane most likely.

                    Great bit of research that Jonty. It's certainly made me change my plans this week.

                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 6 months ago

                    This is bad for me

                    I have 5 away players - Kane,Alli,Jesus,sane,king

                    Well i guess i am screwed

                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 6 months ago

                    Well, KDB, Alli, King, Eriksen, Kane, Jesus, Sané all play away - don't think you would advise getting rid would you?

                    Vardy, Costa, Sturridge do look tempting though but bringing one of them is only possible with a -8 as far as I'm concerned... (Anichebe to be upgraded)

                    So, not worth it I think.

                    • 12 Years
                    8 years, 6 months ago

                    Thinking Vardy is the one with that B'mouth game looking ripe for goals.

                    Hit to clear out Gabby pending any miracles tonight for Vardy. Will probably generate the cash by selling Sane (is he a rotation risk, looked jaded last night) to the best non-playing mid sub I can get.

                    Great article, thx you.

                    Please help me with for GW 38.

                    A. Hazard -> KDB
                    B. Hazard -> Coutinho
                    C. Hazard -> Ozil
                    C. Alli -> Coutinho

                    I likely will play h2h with someone who has KDB, should I buy him for playing safe?

                    My other MID are Sanchez, Eriksen & Tom Carroll.

                    Cheers, thx you.

                  Should Stephens & Tadic both not play, my BB will give me just 7.
                  The BB "play early" strategy that I used last season (before wk 10) got me 17/18 from memory - might be worth thinking about again.

                    In fairness, 3 of your 4 were budget players with bad matchups though.

                  Would you sell any of these two for free: Hazard (SUN) / Alli (hull) in order to get (C)outinho (MID)

                    I'd do Alli -> Coutinho but Hazard seems to be the popular choice. Haz ives you spare cash to make a -4 worth it somewhere else too.

                  So the consensus is that Costa will start GW38 and Batshuayi not?

                  Was planning to do Haz & Gabbi for Cout & Bats but looking like Giroud might be a better option.......

                  Will probably change plans completely if Gabbi scores tonight.

                    Costa to score a hatty on his last game at Stamford bridge...

                  Owning Hazard, Sane + Costa and being completely unsure who will play the next round is a tough one, obviously want Coutinho but can't afford to go Sane > Coutinho.

                  Who is the biggest doubt for GW 38:

                  a) Hazard
                  b) Sane
                  c) Costa

                    Got to be Hazard given he was the only one omitted from rotation v Watford, hasn't it?

                  De Gea
                  Davies - Kompany - Monreal
                  Hazard - Sanchez - Eriksen - Zaha
                  Kane (C) - Gabb - Jesus

                  (Pickford - De Roon - Yoshida - Barragan)

                  1 ft. 2,1 ITB.

                  Who would you rather have?

                  A: Gabb --> Giroud
                  B: De Roon --> Coutinho (-4)
                  C: De Roon --> Sane

                    Or:
                    Hazard --> Coutinho and Gabb --> Vardy? (-4)
