After Huddersfield shocked us all by holding Man City to a goalless draw at the Etihad, there’s a pair of 4.30pm fixtures to hopefully get Double Gameweek 37 on track.

Despite playing just once in Double Gameweek 37, Mohamed Salah is second only to Harry Kane for the captaincy, with 19.42% OF Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers handing him the armband for Liverpool’s trip to Chelsea.

Salah – who scored against his former employers back in Gameweek 13 – remains four goals ahead of Kane in the race for the Golden Boot after the latter’s blank at West Brom yesterday.

However, that single fixture means that, in terms of transfers out, the Egyptian (356,000+) and team-mate Roberto Firmino (272,000+) were the two most sold players ahead of last Friday’s deadline.

There was limited interest in the Blues, though, with Cesar Azpilicueta their most bought player (34,000+) for a pair of home fixtures that also includes a midweek visit from Huddersfield.

Antonio Conte’s teamsheet sees Olivier Giroud lead the line, with Eden Hazard handed a central support role behind the winter signing – only 6% of FPL managers own the Belgian, who has a goal and two assists in his last three matches across all competitions.

Elsewhere, Arsenal welcome Burnley to the Emirates in Arsene Wenger’s final home match in charge.

The Gunners’ manager names a strong attacking line-up after their midweek Europa League exit, with Pierre Emerick Aubameyang back on the teamsheet.

The Gabon international has five goals and three assists in his last seven league outings, though he looks set for a role on the left, with Alexandre Lacazette leading the line.

Handed the armband by just 1.89% and 1.81% respectively, Aubameyang and Lacazette (with four goals in four) could now emerge as big captaincy differentials, with Wenger’s men also set to face Leicester’s porous defence on Wednesday evening.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Surely Alonso is more likely to start the second game if the win this?

    Full squad now needed?

      Yeah. What a legend

    • 10 Years

    Ok so, Spurs City Utd and Liverpool scores a combined 0 goals for the night, and Arsenal scores 5? Should we all just quit Fantasy next season and spare us the pain?

    1. Jairzinho

    2. TAT
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Would have transfered in Aubameyang and captained him if it were a single GW. DGW fear got me out of it.

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

        He has two matches as well though.

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

          Yeah, but you know… City…

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

      Yeh average captain is about 5 points I guess doubled to 10, tripling it to 15 makes f all difference

  16. SW6
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    61(-8) with 10 to play, yeah that'll do for now 😎

    Great to have so many midweek matches still be relevant.

    1. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Phew. Time for Kane (c) (and all the other plonkers in my team) to save the GW.

  28. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Wait, people actually kept Salah in GW33?

  29. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Chelsea would be crazy to get rid of Conte just look at the passion he is still showing for the job.

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah but managers like Pardew are available

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Can only coach 3 at the back, has pissed off some players (Costa) and took a long time to turn around their form
