DOUBLE GAMEWEEK 29 REACTION

FPL review: Maddison's elite numbers, Spurs' injury woes 1

We now have confirmation of Double Gameweek 29 and it’s a big one as expected, with 12 teams set to play twice.

Away matches for Liverpool against Man City and Chelsea are far from straightforward, but more appealing doubles await Leicester and Nott’m Forest.

And what about Brighton and Brentford, who could now potentially face two ‘doubles’ and two ‘blanks’ in the next five rounds?

What all of this does mean, however, is that chip planning will become more important than ever in the coming days and weeks, with Free Hit deployment set to pick up in Blank Gameweek 28 and Double Gameweek 29, depending on your strategy.

For a rundown of the latest Blank Gameweek 28 permutations, see below.

    Liverpool fans enjoying the Champions League anthem.

      Can someone enlighten me why they boo it?

        It's directed at UEFA.

          Thanks. Of course, because of last year's final and how the fans were treated.

    Liverpool in good voice!

    Read earlier that, even with ten men, Newcastle had a higher xg and more shots on goal against Pool. Madrid are definately scoring tonight and wouldn't be too hot on their defence for the double.

    1. LarryDuff
      • 8 Years

      There's more to football than xG lol

      1. Bartowski
        • 13 Years

        Read it again.

        1. LarryDuff
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 3 months ago

          Yep read it again and you still mention xG

          1. Bartowski
            • 13 Years
            1 year, 3 months ago

            Where did I say football was all about xG?

      2. Yozzer
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        The reliance on XG these days is just ridiculous isn't it.

      3. Bartowski
        • 13 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Yeah that xG really proved nothing in this game...

    Which player has scored in each of his last 4 appearances, has less than 1% ownership in the top 100k, has green FDR fixtures in both BGW25 + 28 and doubles in GW29? 🙂

    2. RICICLE

  12. DycheDycheBaby
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    I was going to ask the question, Gakpo or Nunez. Question already answered:D

  13. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Darwin + Salah 100% ownership it is!

    1. DycheDycheBaby
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Wish I could afford both!

  14. Count of Monte Hristo

    1. Utopsis
      • 4 Years

      Indeed

  17. SEXY SOLO SAUCE FOR THE LAS…
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Salah going to smash it for me again this week!

    1. SEXY SOLO SAUCE FOR THE LAS…
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      In the main team too!

  18. RICICLE
    • 1 Year
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Think I may have to lose Kane if I want Salah and Darwin, is it really worth it?

    1. TheBiffas
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      I am thinking it will be worth it, we've got similar teams I think

      1. RICICLE
        • 1 Year
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Oh hey bud! Yeah we have somewhat similar sides.
        I really didn’t wanna lose Kane but he is the ONLY person along with Mahrez/Bruno that I’d feel can pace the way for Salah and Darwin.
        Has to be somewhat worth it?

    2. DycheDycheBaby
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Same for me but then it means keeping Mitro which is not appealing right now 🙂

      1. RICICLE
        • 1 Year
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Yeah it’s a bit a ‘meh’ feeling that isn’t it, needs just I suppose.
        Really did not wanna lose Kane, but I know I can’t be too attached to players in FPL, gotta go where the points are more likely and higher

    3. BeaversWithAttitude
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Nah.

  19. Arteta
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Liverpool are officially back.

  20. wulfrunian
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Things are getting serious.

  21. BeWater
    • 3 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    It was nice having low ownership Darwin and Salah for a couple of weeks.

    1. RICICLE
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Think they’ll still be quite low overall

      1. BeWater
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 3 months ago

        Hopefully. I'm just glad Nunez is fit to be honest after going early.

        1. RICICLE
          • 1 Year
          1 year, 3 months ago

          Very true. And now Salah!

  22. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Mitro > Darwin for a hit. Here we go!

    1. DycheDycheBaby
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Mitro will play and score a brace if I do this move 😀

  23. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Now I have to ask if Kane > Nunez is worth a -4 (sigh).

    Probs opens up Trent in too.

    Dammit I wanted to not go into 28 with Liverpool 😆

    1. TheBiffas
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      I'm looking at Botman, KDB, Kane > TAA, Salah, Nunez

    2. RICICLE
      • 1 Year
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Same here, having to debate losing Kane now

    3. CrouchDown
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      I’m doing Trippier, Bruno, Kane > TAA, Salah, Darwin

      Scary thing is I need to do it tonight before price changes…

    4. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Doing Akanji KDB Kane to TAA Salah Darwin -8 myself, can FH in 28 or take hits worse case

  24. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    I think I just saw Gomez beat Vincius for pace

    1. TheBiffas
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      He's quick

  25. The Senate
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    No card for Fabinho? Liverpool well and truly got the juju back

    1. BeWater
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 3 months ago

      Got a free one there.

  26. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    He will miss two sitters tonight and people will start abusing Nunez again.

  27. JBG
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Salah much more of a provider lately, from the matches I've seen at least and IMO.

  28. Digital-Real
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Decision boils down to:
    Salah + Darwin vs Gakpo + TAA vs Robbo
    leaning towards Salah, Gakpo and TAA
    Still don't trust Darwin, been burnt before.

  29. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    Salah close

  30. KeanosMagic
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 3 months ago

    That's decided then.

    Salah Darwin in, KDB Kane out for a -4
