So, it all comes down to this.

Gameweek 38 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) is where overall ranks are etched onto your season history page and where mini-leagues are settled.

Hits will be taken, captaincy punts will be gambled on and the occasional chip will be deployed. Or perhaps you’re doing none of these things, sitting tight while all around you opt for the all-or-nothing approach.

Whatever your strategy or moves this week, we’ve got all of our content for the upcoming Gameweek on this page to help with your transfer dilemmas and chip-related conundrums.

Don’t forget that the later-than-usual FPL deadline is at Sunday 22nd May at 14:30 BST, although it might not be a bad idea to have your moves confirmed a little before this cut-off point given the likely spike in traffic that the site will experience.

    Is it risky to go without Toney? Many people think that he will have an awesome game. Thank you!

    1. noissimbus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Just as likely Mbeumo will have an awesome game.

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        Or Wissa. Don't mind the hivemind here or on Twitter, I have Toney and think he's a good option this but I can see either of the other two outscoring him

        1. Nightf0x
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 1 month ago

          Espacially wissa

  2. MountainBeach
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    KDB or Mane?

    1. Under my Cucurella
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Debating the same and can't decide

    2. N1ceguyEdd1e
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Went for KDB myself... (Mane minutes 'Mane' reason but either good shouts)

  3. FPLShaqiri
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Play:
    a) Watkins
    b) Weghorst

    Worried Weghorst won't start, although he has the better game by far.

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

      Same, played Watkins, weg first on bench, Watkins maybe benched after m week game ?

      1. FPLShaqiri
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I wouldn't be worried about Watkins starting. Cheers!

    2. Tartan Brazilians
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Weghorst will be benched and Is a donkey anyway even if he plays. Think Villa will score so Watkins

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

    Schmeichel
    Robbo, Cancelo, Alonso, Bavies
    Son(c), KDB, Saka, Maddison
    Kane, Nketiah
    Subs: Foster, Cash, KDH, Dennis

    GTG?

    3. Our Tiny Windows
      • 10 Years

      I hope the Lord returns for you

    4. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years

      Jésus (c)? I've just brought him in.

  6. Scholes Out For Summer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Trying to get as close to top10k as possible, currently 35 points away. Which would you do?

    Dias + Salah —> sess + mane/son (-4)
    Salah + Broja —> Diaz + Vardy (-4)

    1. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Can do Maddison + Kane as well

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

    Hey, I have Sa and Martinez, with these benching rumours is it worth shipping one of them out?

    1. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      How much itb? If for a hit , it’s not worth it imo. If not, then get Alisson, hopefully he does well

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Sa save points probably detracts from any GK hit.

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

        He was benched last game though

  8. Mighty Banana
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I've been 'stuck' with DCL for a while now, any thoughts on whether he'll start today?

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Don’t see why he wouldn’t

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 1 month ago

        I think Mendy. (I'll have Pickford come in)

        1. PartyTime
          • 4 Years

  21. Scots Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    I dropped from 70k to 150k last week. Pretty much killed my season in one week.

    That’s some bullsh*t

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      150k is good. You benefitted from your players/strategy to get to 70k in the first place. If you'd have done something else to avoid a big drop, you might never have made it to 70k or even 150k. You never know. Chin up

  22. KT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Mane/Origi or
    KdB/ Gelhardt?

  23. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years

    No Alonso or James sneaking about

    4. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Well guess taking a hit was worthwhile this week, going to be relying on Martinelli now

    5. Stranger Mings

      Samuel Martin. He’s not giving leaks today though apparently.

      Heard Leicester are full strength today though.

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

        Thanks I own amartey so assume benched

  27. g40steve

    Vardy or Son Cap?

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years

      Son if leading, Vardy if chasing.

  29. Eleven Hag
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 1 month ago

    Would you get Toney for -4 and cover for benching of Alonso or Mount ?

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      If you have another starting play then no. If you don’t then yes. I believe Mount will start

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

    1ft 0.1m itb. What could be done here? Salah out for who? Do you think both mount and havertz will start?

    ramsdale
    taa alonso cancelo white
