Who are the best Brentford players for FPL Double Gameweek 27?

227 Comments
Share

Brentford have the longest current Premier League unbeaten run of 12 games and are one of four teams who have a Double Gameweek 27.

In this Scouting the Doubles article, we look at the pick of The Bees players for Fantasy Premier League (FPL).

All stats in this piece come from our Premium Members Area, where you can access Opta player and team data for every single Premier League fixture this season.

FIXTURES

Brentford have two fixtures in Gameweek 27 and 29, as well as a game in Blank Gameweek 28. That means The Bees have five matches in the next three Gameweeks, more than any other side.

Up first is appealing away trips to Everton and Southampton, both of whom are under new management.

FUTURE FIXTURES

After Brentford’s Double Gameweek 27, they play Leicester City at home in Blank Gameweek 28, where they have been particularly strong this season, losing just once to league-leaders Arsenal all the way back in Gameweek 8. The Foxes have conceded 18 goals across their 10 post-World Cup games, so this could be a decent matchup for Ivan Toney (£7.7m).

Double Gameweek 29 sees The Bees visit Brighton and Hove Albion and Manchester United. Two not-so-great fixtures on paper, especially for defenders, but Toney is worth hanging onto, given his staggeringly good record against sides currently inside the Premier League’s top eight this season:

After, Brentford face Newcastle United and Wolverhampton Wanderers, before a guaranteed home meeting with Aston Villa in Blank Gameweek 32.

    Is it worth to do Bueno->Henry for a hit or start Odegaard?

      I think Øde + 4 probably outscores Henry. But if you need to ditch Bueno for BB29 then this is a decent opportunity to do so

      Yes. First off, the WC draft you posted the other day, I couldn't see how you could afford it!! What is the team you're currently on?

      Second, do you think I should wildcard this team?

        Was considering getting in DDG, Mee, Chilwell, Martinelli, Watkins, Toney to set up for coming weeks.

          Yeah Chilwell is firmly on my radar. Probably won’t touch DDG.
          The other way to think about I suppose, is there’s not much of the season left to properly make use of a wild card now. So if you’re really tempted, just do it.

        You sure it wasn’t another horse? I wild carded a few weeks ago.
        No I don’t think that’s worth a wild card.

          Ha! I dunno, is there another horse? Anyway, thanks. Maybe I will do Haaland to Toney if I'm feeling brave, or Beuno to Brentford defender if not.

    Might not be the first one to ask, but what to do with Sanchez?:

    A) Get Raya (already on Henry and don't really like the fixtures)
    B) Get Steele (is he nailed for GWs 27-29)?

      He's not completley nailed yet, but Id think Steele will plan the next couple. I'd just go Raya if getting a keeper for the long term.

    What do you reckon for this team here lads? 1FT and 1.7 ITB.

    Got a decent team for BGW28 and DGW29 with a few FTs, so could dead end and WC in 30, or maybe WC next week to maximise 29

    My GW28 team. I’m well set up for 27 and 29 with a couple of changes.

    28: Darwin to Watkins

    Raya
    Henry Trippier Tark White
    Saka Ode
    Toney Watkins

    DDG estu Rash Mitoma Salah Haaland

    Any changes or all good? I want to save my FH for 34/37.

    Hadnt planned to use a transfer this week after WC, but is it worth Sanchez -> Steele?
    Probably means a hit later down the line (DGW29), or could just play Kepa (do Che have other blanks likely?)

      That's tough. I'm reluctant to choose the non-Mitoma option, but I guess the difference between Chilwell & Fofana is bigger, especially if you're captaining Toney over BHA mids. Would ideally like both though if its possible to make a small sacrifice somewhere else
