After a rare, normal Gameweek of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) in which all 20 teams played only once, we return to the carnage caused by Covid and cups with Gameweek 33.

Seven teams double and three teams blank in the upcoming Gameweek, while four sides are in FA Cup semi-final action before they return to Premier League duties in midweek.

Free Hits and Bench Boosts are being activated in the run-up to Saturday’s deadline (over 45% of responders in our poll said they would be playing one or the other), so we’ll have plenty of chip chat on our site.

Matt Doherty replacements are also up for discussion after the Irish wing-back was ruled out for the season.

Whatever your strategy or moves, we’ve collated all of our content for the upcoming Gameweek ahead of the FPL deadline at 11:00 BST today.

    1. Ghost86
      • 9 Years

      1. Mattdrid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Got an ft, have white (sou/che), but fancy cancelo… thoughts?

        1. Jonny HOW SON?

    5. AC Yew

  5. Champions League Varane

      Rudiger for attacking returns too.

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Rudiger - goal threat

    3. Stranger Mings
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      R

  6. TSN

  7. Hairy Potter
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I reckon ASM outscores Wood this GW.

    1. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Yup reckon good chance

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      This is why I have both

  8. Punty McPuntface
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Possibly the most mundane question I've ever asked...

    Do I swap out Brownhill for Dewsbury Hall?

    1. marcos11
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Only if trying to burn a FT

  9. marcos11
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Where to use 2FT here? On BB this week.

    Schmeichel
    Cancelo Roberts White
    Salah Havertz Maddison Saka Kulu
    Kane Weghorst
    Foster Mateta Robbo Chalobah

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Will Chalobah play?

      Wouldn't fancy Weghorst at West Ham. So banking on the home game to Southampton.

    2. MeinBergkampf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I'm in the same boat! Maybe Chalobah to someone whose minutes are more secure?

      1. marcos11
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Thinking Chalobah > Schar, just if there’s anything else worthwhile doing

        1. MeinBergkampf
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          I think that's your move 🙂

  10. Jonesy5
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Mount -> Saka/Martinelli for free?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Why?

      1. Jonesy5
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        FOMO

    2. Jinswick
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Nah, Mount bang on form and had good fixtures and 2 DGWs to come

      1. Jonesy5
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks, that’s what I was thinking

        1. Jinswick
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          If it helps, I brought him in this week!

          1. Jonesy5
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 1 month ago

            Haha, yeah thanks that does help! Good luck

  11. Jebiga
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Play broja or schar?

    1. BeWater
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Schar

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Schar

  12. winchester
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Hey guys. 2ft and 3.5m itb. FH&BB left.

    dubravka*
    taa targett* white*
    salah saka* barnes* mount
    kane(c) weghorst* broja*

    (dubravka* rudiger doherty ramsey)

    doherty -> cancelo (roll other ft and GTG) bench broja or weg for cancelo?

  13. frenchfries
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Decided to go all in with FH this week:

    Schmeichel
    Schar Burn Cancelo White
    Fernandes Son Saka Barnes
    Kane Ronaldo(C)

    0.1itb

    Would you do any changes?

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      not enough for Maddison over Barnes?

      1. frenchfries
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        No missing like 0.3, and want to take A punt on Barnes also since ML leader have him

    2. FourLokoLeipzig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Looks really good. I’d go Dalot over Burn though. AWB not in the squad today so you’ll at least get the Norwich game

      1. frenchfries
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Oh Nice, was considering him but not sure about playing time

  14. Caleb's Kitties
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Best defender up to 4.8 (not newcastle)?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Matip

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Or did he go up?

        White

    2. MeinBergkampf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Emerson?

    3. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Royal

  15. MeinBergkampf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Have 2FTs but there really isn't anything I want to change - am I missing anything obvious? BB33, FH36/37, 0.0ITB.

    Pope Dubravka
    Robbo, Cancelo, Laporte, James, Amartey
    Salah, Kulu, Havertz, Saka, Martinelli,
    Kane, Mateta, Weghorst.

    Is it mad that I'm actually considering Weghorst -> Rodriguez, just to burn a transfer? I'd considered Havertz to a Leicester mid but I think I'll want him back next week...

  16. the dom 1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    When would be the best GW's other than this one to use BB & FH Chips?

    1. H.E. Pennypacker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      36

  17. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Captain Kane or Madders?

    1. H.E. Pennypacker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Harry!

    2. MeinBergkampf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I've gone Kane

  18. Dannyb
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Any changes to fh?
    Schmeichel
    Schar Telles Gabriel
    Maddison Bruno Martinelli Saka
    Wood Ronaldo(C) Kane

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Schmeichel

      1. Dannyb
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        To?

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Dubravka for one.

    2. Bubbles1985
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      No. Looks good.

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Maddisson to Lookman could be another one.

  19. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Is Wood(c) a bit still? Feels like I should go with a DGWer but none of them really appeal…

    RAMSDALE
    Robbo, Cancelo, James
    Salah, Mount, Kulu, MARTINELLI
    WOOD, BROJA, Kane

    Foster, Coutinho, Doherty, Ait-Nouri
    Bank 0.0m, 0FT, FH/BB left

    1. Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Go for it and enjoy hiding behind the sofa at 12.30 today

  20. The Final Boss
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    This week is killing me. Planning bb on 36. No wc . Gut saying I should bring a Utd player in. Have 2ft.

    A) salah to BrunoC

    C) Don't bring utd and do raph and saiss to dewsbryhall and cancelo free.

  21. RWB_1991
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

  26. The Ilfordian
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Sorry I’m sure this has been asked before but is Dubravka better than Schmeical on a FH? I don’t want a Newcastle defensive double but think Dubravka may be the better bet

    1. Heiro
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Risk Vs reward purely.

      1. The Ilfordian
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers. Nothing to lose, risk it is!

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      I think so

  27. FCSB
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Are any of the following worth it:

    1. Salah >> Bruno (-4)
    2. Kane >> Ronaldo (-4)

    Yes or No

    1. tokara
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Not for me

    2. Super John McGinn-
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Nah

    3. Hairy Potter
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Nope

  28. Paul Psychic Octopus

    4 years, 1 month ago

    Who is the MUST HAVE DGW Midfielder?

    A. Maddison

    D. JWP

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Bruno if any. Maddison if he was guaranteed to start both

    2. Dannyb
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      C or A out of those for me, I've got both, so probably going to go tits up.

    3. OptimusBlack
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago
