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.

    So with Man City blanking, Salah yellow, Ashley Barnes dislocating his shoulder - hope its not too serious, he's been brilliant this season - it's fair to say this has been even worse than yesterday, which is saying something. Done with this season

    So unlucky this season. I considered Aubameyang, Moses, Giroud, triple Huddersfield and double Brighton and triple West Brom defence but chickened out. 🙁

    1. Pariße

      To furthere explain my conclusion...There’s a big roof for the triple captain chip, but you rely on one player to perform in 1 or 2 fixtures. With FH your risk is spread to 11-15 different players.

    Is it true that is Ramasan month for Muslims now and therefore Salah doesn't eat and drink during daytime?

      No.
