Double Gameweek 22 confirmed for eight teams

Share

The revised fixture list for Double Gameweek 22 was announced by the Premier League on Thursday morning, with eight top-flight sides playing twice.

Brentford, Brighton and Hove Albion, Burnley, Chelsea, Leicester City, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Watford are the clubs who have two fixtures in the upcoming Gameweek.

There is a caveat: this proposed schedule is subject to change should any FA Cup third-round matches involving these teams or their second Double Gameweek 22 opponents be postponed this weekend. In the event of that happening, the outstanding cup ties would be played in this free midweek instead.

GAMEWEEK 22 DOUBLES

  • Brentford: Liverpool (a), Man Utd (h)
  • Brighton: Crystal Palace (h), Chelsea (h)
  • Burnley: Leicester (h), Watford (h)
  • Chelsea: Manchester City (a), Brighton (a)
  • Leicester: Burnley (a), Spurs (h)
  • Man Utd: Aston Villa (a), Brentford (a)
  • Spurs: Arsenal (h), Leicester (a)
  • Watford: Newcastle (a), Burnley (a)

There is a real mixed bag of ‘doubles’ here, with Brentford’s two games unappealing and Chelsea and Spurs having far from straightforward tests.

The best pairings are arguably those of Watford and Burnley, although which players from these two clubs beyond Emmanuel Dennis (£6.1m) and/or Joshua King (£5.8m) represent attractive targets is another question.

Liverpool, West Ham United and even Everton, whose players some of us would have loaded up on ahead of Double Gameweek 21, have very decent ‘single’ Gameweeks, meanwhile, so as ever a balancing act would seem to be the way to go.

DATES AND TIMES OF THE ADDITIONAL FIXTURES

Tuesday 18 January

19:30 Burnley v Watford
20:00 Brighton v Chelsea

Wednesday 19 January

19:30 Leicester v Spurs
20:00 Brentford v Man Utd

        With one free hit and blank gameweeks to come, I wouldn't free hit.

        I really like the Leicester mids for this gameweek so I would go for B

        I would also try and find the cash to upgrade Joe Gelhardt to a watford striker.

      On the fence re free hit (all chips intact). What do you prefer:

      A) 5 DGW + TAA, Jota, DCL, Antonio, Coufal (all good fixtures) and either Raph or Dewsberry-Hall (-4) (No CR7 or Watford coverage)

      B) FH and go with the template

      The best chip to use in this short period (GWs 21 and 22) might turn out to be WC only

      Pre-GW21 template had lotsa Chelsea and Arsenal with Salah. Those can go now, with 2+ blank GWs confirmed in the near future

      WC can get some teams with good fixture runs *and* pending doubles, as DGWs will come in a drip feed over the next few GWs, wrapped around Europe midweeks (UEFA has given permission)

      Try not to hyperfocus on one DGW. It's DGW *season*, not the usual "2 big DGWs"

      The biggest one should be DGW36, but that's in the far future
