Joe and Seb are joined by Karam to look at the key issues facing Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of Gameweek 23.
Just two hours before our Scoutcast trio were due to start this latest episode, dramatic news broke concerning the upcoming schedule.
As predicted by eagle eye Detective Karam earlier in the week, Manchester City and Everton both have two fixtures in Gameweek 24.
And there’s more. Burnley and Fulham also play twice that week, then Leeds and Southampton have a brace of matches in Gameweek 25.
In this hastily revamped Double Gameweek special Scoutcast, Joe, Seb and Karam try to make sense of the latest developments and how it impacts on their strategy for the remainder of the campaign. This is particularly in the context of Gameweek 26, when further extra fixtures are due to be scheduled, and Gameweek 29, when the FA Cup is set to lead to blank Gameweeks for a handful of teams.
Seb takes the strain regarding strategy, while Karam then moves the discussion along to help Fantasy Premier League managers pinpoint the players to pick.
Whether a Gameweek has the regulation ten fixtures or more, the same rule applies – make sure the best player is captained. Joe takes a look at how FPL managers can, perhaps, better choose armband contenders. This includes a deep dive into the Fantasy Football Scout Premium Members Area to look at favourable match ups such as when aerial threat specialists meet teams that concede from headers regularly.
There’s some smooth bench points to look at in our round up of Gameweek 22 and Gameweek 23’s transfer and captaincy plans are revealed.
