Double Gameweek 21 announced for West Ham, Brentford and Everton

The news that Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers were waiting for – or part of it, at least – finally arrived on Friday, with the confirmation that we are to get a Double Gameweek 21.

West Ham United, Everton and Brentford are the three teams who will get a Double Gameweek, 16 teams will have a single Gameweek and Newcastle United will be without a fixture altogether.

A total of 22 postponed Premier League fixtures were outstanding before today’s announcement (18 due to Covid-19, one thanks to inclement weather and three future matches due to clashes with the Club World Cup and EFL Cup final) with three of them now rearranged for Double Gameweek 21.

The additional fixtures in Gameweek 21 are:

  • Southampton v Brentford
  • Everton v Leicester
  • West Ham v Norwich

It’s at this point where we bring up the dreaded C-word again: coronavirus. It goes without saying that the fixtures below are the mercy of the ongoing pandemic, so doubles could easily become singles or blanks in an instant.

We’ll have more coverage of the Double Gameweeks in the coming hours and days, while we’ve set up a Hot Topic to gauge your reactions here.

    Hmm decisions decisions.

    James needs to go to get 11 (assuming Cancelo very at risk) and a West Ham defender seems sensible.

    Already have DCL and Antonio so it’s a question of how many hits to take in midfield with no spurs or West Ham.

    A) Salah -> Son (-4)
    B) Gallagher to Bowen (-4)
    C) both -8

    Looking at best use of ft in this crazy moment. Team is in good shape compared to others.

    Would you do:
    A) Broja+Rudi to Antonio+1)Targett or 2)Coufal

    B) also Bilva to Foden now for -4?

    DDG 3.9
    TAA Rudi Cancelo Dier Tierney
    Son Jota Bilva Bowen D. Luiz
    CR7 Dennis Broja

    2ft, 2.2m itb

    Salah and Dennis to CR7 (c) and Martinelli for a hit in GW19, then back to Salah (c) with King for a hit in GW20 looking even worse now Dennis isn't going to Afcon.

    On WC, thoughts on this draft:

    DDG - Sanchez
    TAA - Cancelo - Targett - Dier - Ait Nouri
    KDB - Son - Jota - Bowen - Ramsey
    DCL - Antonio - Dennis
    1.0itb

    Gives me a little flexibility for Salah back in or Laporte for Targett in a couple of weeks, thoughts? (I like the DCL punt because he's a long term hold imo)
