The Premier League threw a small curveball our way on Thursday evening with a further fixture announcement.

Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers will get either a small Double Gameweek 34 or 35, depending on the results of this weekend’s FA Cup semi-final between Chelsea and Crystal Palace.

Scoutcast old guard Mark Sutherns and Joe Lepper will be reacting to the news in a video for Premium Members from 6.30pm BST, which you can find at the bottom of this piece.

IF CHELSEA WIN

  • Chelsea’s Gameweek 37 match with Manchester United will move to Gameweek 34 (Thursday 28 April).
  • Chelsea would be left with a single fixture in Gameweek 37 (Leicester City at home), while United would blank.
  • Chelsea would have West Ham (h) and Man Utd (a) in Gameweek 34, while United would have Arsenal (a) and Chelsea (h)

IF CRYSTAL PALACE WIN

  • Crystal Palace’s Gameweek 37 match with Aston Villa will move to Gameweek 35 (Tuesday 3 May).
  • Both Palace (Everton away) and Villa (Burnley at home) will be left with a single fixture in Gameweek 37.
  • Palace would have Southampton (a) and Villa (a) in Gameweek 35, while Villa would have Norwich (h) and Palace (h).

The Premier League added that “any rearrangements for matches involving Liverpool or Manchester City will be confirmed in due course”.

    2FT £0 ITB. 1 FH remaining.

    After the DG34 bombshell, knee-jerk reaction is to take a -4 to do Salah + Raph + Coutinho -> Bruno (c) + Maddison + Mount. That leaves me £0.7 ITB to do Doherty to Alonso next week and I can captain Mount/James. Thoughts?

    Current team:

    Dubravka
    TAA - Robbo - White - Doherty - James
    Salah - Saka - Kulu
    Kane - Broja

    Bench: Ramsdale; Raphinha, Coutinho, Hwang

      Seem like a reasonable trade to me. I have already bought in Bruno and Cr7 as chasing money leagues and need the differentilas.

    I have FH, BB, TC left and debating whether to play it this week or take a hit. My defence is up the spout though.

    Dub, Sa
    Rudiger Livra Doherty Tierney Kilman
    Salah kulu Maddison Saka Raphinha
    Kane adams weghorst

    Out - Tierney Doherty
    In - Cancelo Schar

    OR go for glory with the FH and make changes for the next 2 weeks for a GW37 BB

          Because I think everyone expects points for ManUtd attackers in that game and a fair few, so really IMO it's about what someone in this case thinks they'll do in the other games where points aren't as much of a given. (For what it's worth I don't think it's a given they'll comfortably beat Norwich, they scraped a 1-0 win via a late penalty earlier this season under Rangnick and little has changed since then.)
