The Fantasy Premier League (FPL) season might be drawing to a close, but arguably the most important Gameweek still remains on the docket.

With 16 fixtures – more than any other Gameweek this season – scheduled across six days of football, Double Gameweek 37 promises managers their best opportunity to climb the rankings.

Moreover, with five of the league’s top six sides in possession of two fixtures, a wide range of premium options find themselves vying for our attention.

Doubling the importance of this Gameweek is the high number of managers who retain one of the game’s two highest-yield chips for use across these fixtures.

Those who have resisted the urge to spend either the Triple Captain or Bench Boost chip before this weekend will find themselves spoiled for choice, with a plethora of captaincy picks and budget bench options at their disposal.

With this in mind, this week’s second article for members will be using our expected goals and goals conceded data to break down the fixtures of this upcoming Gameweek to identify sides – and players – who look best placed to prosper.

    Vert/Smalling/Lowton/Tark/Morgan
    Salah/Son/Willian/Sterling/Gross

    0FT 0.1ITB

    Is it worth bringing Jesus? Can take up to -12.
    Ideas ?

    1. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      BB? Look dgw 34 team to me. Lol

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        No BB, thinking about changes

  4. United10
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Start 1
    a) Gross
    b) Cedric

    1. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      A

  5. _Gunner
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Which is better?

    A- Dunk > Danilo/ Mawson (-4)
    B- GroS > Sterling/Sane (-4)

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Bbbbbbbbbbb!

    2. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      B by far

    3. Geezer
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Both?

    4. Hedge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      B is better. Both worth doing

  6. No Pirlo No Party
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    This weeks decision boils down to this:

    A) Vardy - Kane/Jesus - Vertonghen/Kompany -4
    B) Kane - Jesus - 4.7 (van der Hoorn?) -8

    B blocks my rival with Kane and Jesus. Holding a 40 point lead. Time to be a dullard?

    1. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      A

    2. djenzio

      Ask Jonty.

  7. syke63
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Still clinging to hope that Maguire, Mahrez & Vardy can come good this gw. Not worth a -4 on any imo but 2 will go for 38.

    1. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      If youre gonna take a hit to drop them in 38, I'd rather do it now as it gives you more time to regain the pts hit. Leicester defence is rubbish, doubt they'll keep any clean sheet and there are just so many alternatives to Mahrez

      1. Thinkering like a Boss
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        This

      2. syke63
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Hit to et Salah in , can't do that this week. Have Sterling, Arnie, Silva already so happy enough.

  8. Longlatini
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    I’m sure that my ml rival has just sold Salah to get Sterling in, who I already own.
    I’m leading by 14 points and have two free transfers.
    Loath to get rid of Salah but surely this presents an opportunity!!
    Got £0.7 itb
    Is Salah to Eriksen/Alli a good idea in this scenario? (He has Son)
    Rest of my midfield is Sterling Kenedy Milivojevic

    1. ELO
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Get KDB

      1. Naboo
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        This

  9. yLLacs
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Salah, Vardy, Murray > Kane (TC), JAyew, Pogba

    worth a -8 hit?

    1. ELO
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Do you have another TC option? If so I would only do the Murray to Ayew move

      1. yLLacs
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        I guess Jesus..

        Current playing team:

        DDG
        Alonso Mustafi Morgan
        Son Salah Willian Lingard
        Jesus Vardy Murray

        Kennedy 1st sub

        1. ELO
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          What about Willian/Murray to Pogba/Ayew?

    2. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Yes if you gamble TC on Kane.

  10. HD7
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Should I start Morgan or Andy King?

    1. ELO
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      King

    2. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      King

    3. Pep says
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      What??

    4. JustPark
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      King easy.

  11. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Who is more likely to start both DGW games?

    a) Lanzini

    b) A. Ayew

    c) Willian

    d) Ramsey (if they get knocked out tonight)

    1. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      B

    2. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      B

    3. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      B of couse

  12. ooooo
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    With 2.0mil itb, any transfer here worth a -4?
    DDG
    Vert Chilwell Lowton
    Salah Willian Sterling Son
    Kane Jesus Barnes

    Ryan Morgan Long L.Cook

    A) Morgan to Smalling
    B) Barnes to Ayew
    C) Son to KDB

  13. Positive vibes
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Hi, already do Christensen -> Vert (-4)

    Is Morgan -> Danilo (if Walker out worth another -4?
    Or just play Dummett?

    Thanks 🙂

    1. Legomané
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      No other city plans? It's not bad though. Considering similar.

      1. Positive vibes
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Already have GJesus and Sterling

    2. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Play dummet

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      No

      1. Positive vibes
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Not worth? Yes, Danilo not nailed also

  14. Legomané
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Lots of possible directions this wk - Thoughts very much appreciated as always 🙂 chasing rival owns Eriksen which worries me in particular.

    A. Christensen Willian > Sané Naughton (-4)
    B. Christensen Willian > DSilva Mawson (-4)
    C. Christensen Lingard > Danilo Arnautovic (-4)
    D. Christensen > Smalling
    E. Willian > DSilva
    F. Lingard > Arnautovic
    G. Son Christensen > Eriksen Danilo (-4)
    H. Willian Son Christensen > Eriksen Arnautovic Mawson (-8)

    DDG
    Alonso Vertonghen Christensen Chilwell
    Sterling Son Willian Lingard
    Kane Jesus

    (Ryan Milivojevic Barnes Lowton)

    1. ELO
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      H, but like the KDB/Naughton combo better than Eriksen/Mawson if you can afford

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      F for me

    3. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      B+Barnes->JAyew.

    4. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      A or H

  15. DAZZ
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Everyone here have convinced themselves Kane is a bad captaincy option, the man city blinkers are out

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      What makes the City view blinkered?

    2. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      has*

    3. MTPockets
        7 years, 10 months ago

        No but form and fixtures suggest he's not the best.

      • Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        He doesn't look like he's at 100%, hasn't scored a double digits in ages, I may still captain him yet but there are good reasons to ignore him

      • Pep says
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Kane isn't a bad captaincy option. My TC has been on Sterling since watching City beat West Ham last weekend.

        Kane's performance only bolstered it onto Sterling even more.

        Don't think I have blinkers on, I think my eyes are very much open. Kane's been poor. Of course he can explode in these 2 games but he hasn't shown anywhere near that level of form as of late. In addition West Brom and Newcastle will be the type of opponent that Kane's struggled against all season. He only 2 goal against Brighton and Watford, these are teams Kane would usually have no problem bagging 2/3 goals against.

        Meanwhile Sterling is just a joy to watch. So many chances created and big chances falling to him. Even if he only plays 120mins, that's more than enough time to score big for him.

        Im tired of captaining players out of fear this season. I'd like to spend my TC chip on the player I want to captain the most and for me that's Sterling.

        1. Messsiaah
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          I'm with you

        2. Pep says
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          You seem a lot more undecided than me based on your comment history so you clearly aren't convinced on Kane either

          1. Messsiaah
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 10 months ago

            i'm chasing. so Kane(TC) is out of question.

          2. Pep says
            • 10 Years
            7 years, 10 months ago

            @Messiaah, sorry I was referring to OP (Dazz), I just looked at his comment history and he doesn't seem to have a clue who to TC.

    4. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Barnes Willian Mahrez > Ayew Sterling Sane -8 a no brainer?

      1. Old Wulfrunian
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        yes

    5. Messsiaah
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      How much point do you think Arnie gonna score?

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        3-7pts

      2. Viper
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        9

      3. Thinkering like a Boss

        4

      4. Old Wulfrunian
        • 9 Years

        24

    6. Kalou
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Looking to triple captain one of these to make up ground in ml.
      A.Hazard
      B.Kdb
      C.Sterling
      D.Other?

      1. iCon
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Really depends what those above you are doing? Assume you're assuming they're on Kane?

        1. Kalou
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          Yeh..Kane or Jesus

          1. iCon
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            7 years, 10 months ago

            C then, but with the obvious caveats

      2. Hedge
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        C

    7. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      35 behind in ML. Is this enough to clawback in the double do you think?

      *Differential to rival

      DDG*
      Cresswell* | Naughton* | Dummett*
      Son* | Hazard* | Arnie* | Sterling
      Vardy* | Kane (TC) | Jesus

      Hennessey | Lowton* | Long* | Milivojevic

      Rival will be playing BB, but only has 9 DGWers before transfers (1FT)

      Thanks

      1. iCon
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Will be very tough if Kane doesn't do it for you

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          TC someone else?

          1. iCon
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            7 years, 10 months ago

            Sterling, if you've got the testicular fortitude for it!

            1. Scapegoat Salah
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 10 months ago

              If I do that reckon I can close the gap?

      2. Positive vibes
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Hope the differential pay off, good luck. TC Kane over GJesus?

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          Thanks. Worried about Jesus starting both

    8. Viper
      • 16 Years

      Any team news/rumours from the FPL today that haven't been mentioned in the scout tweets? Silva rumours or the like?

      1. badgerboy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

        Bulk of the press conferences will be tomorrow.

        I have been keeping an eye on news and nothing pertinent that I have seen.

    9. KUNingas
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      So which one?

      A) Jesus, Mahrez (-4)
      B) Vardy, Salah

      1. Karan_G14
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        B

      2. Viper
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        A

      3. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        B

      4. iCon
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Why would you bring in Mahrez and not someone else?

        1. KUNingas
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          I already have him

    10. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Whenever I’ve come on here to read posts this week I always feel like that I’m not taking enough hits this week!

      1. Messsiaah
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        So much this

      2. Viper
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Just tell yourself you're starting the gameweek 4/8/12 points ahead of most

        1. Karan_G14
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          Agreed!

      3. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        This! Cant decide if I should keep Vardy Son Willian Gross and Morgan....

        1. Karan_G14
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          I’m keeping and starting Son, Willian & Morgan out of those. Sold Vardy didn’t own Groß.

          1. Atimis
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 10 months ago

            Would rly love Jesus in płace of Vardy but it means -8/-12...

      4. Legomané
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        😆 reckon GW32/33 WC who are BB'ing this week could need a few to get 15 good un's out - rest of us are just getting carried away!

        1. Karan_G14
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          Every question this week is if this/that is worth a hit.

          With only 2 gws to go this probably the worst week to take hits as there’s no time to regain those points if it goes wrong.

          1. Legomané
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 10 months ago

            True, very true. Also magnificent if it comes off.

            1. Legomané
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 10 months ago

              Certainly don't regret Mahrez Lukaku > Rahz Jesus this wk

      5. Positive vibes
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Willian to Arnie has been my planned transfer all week. Just waiting for the presses but I can afford a price swing so I'm happy to sit and see everyone take hits to get in the players I already have

          Arnie an amazing option. Would really like to have him but have to take a hit for him. Think I’m keeping Willian for this week and will sell for Arnie next week as a last gw punt.

            Ya I'm aware Willian can just as easily outscore him and I'm slightly tempted to hold but Arnie is just more exciting to own

      A. Salah to Hazard/KDB -4 (TC Sterling/Kane) enables switch back to Salah in 1 transfer for 38.

      B. Salah & Austin to Tadic and Jesus -8 (TC Jesus) would need a hit to get Salah back in 38. Rival will TC Jesus and is 7 points behind me.

      C. Nothing this week then ditch Willian for Zaha/Arny in 38.

      Current team with 1.3 itb, no FT

      DDG (Ryan)
      Valencia, Bavies, Morgan/Kiko (Lowton)
      Salah, Willian, Alli, Sterling, Pogba
      Kane, Austin (Barnes)

      Safe to assume Simpson will start with Albrighton banned or is he just completely out of favour now?
