NOTES
- Cambridge United defensive investment is essential this week and because their defender picks are underwhelming, goalkeeper Jake Eastwood was an easy addition.
- In defence, MK Dons’ Jack Sanders was a shoo-in due to fixtures. I also like to own Bromley’s Omar Sowunmi in home doubles. He has multiple routes to points playing for the best team in the league currently.
- Midfield was easy. Lewis Wing is arguably an easy captaincy choice, whilst Oliver Norwood has frustrated, but still offers more than most other midfielders in the game. I always try to pick one differential and the in-form Kelly N’Mai of Salford City will be that for me.
- Up top, I have gone for Yousef Salech. He recently signed a new contract, so looks committed to Cardiff. Hopefully, he can cash in on his data a bit more; if he does, he will be the perfect Fantasy asset.
- I’m also backing Cambridge United and MK Dons. The only thing I might change is Sowunmi to Lincoln City’s Sonny Bradley; otherwise, everything should stay the same.
- Good luck!

NOTES
- In goal, I’m backing Jake Eastwood. Two favourable fixtures combine with one of the strongest defences in the league, which places clean-sheet potential extremely high this week.
- At the back, Jack Sanders and Sonny Bradley both appeal. Each offers strong bonus potential while also carrying goal threat from set-piece situations. With clean sheets firmly in play, both defenders look well-positioned for returns.
- In midfield, Lewis Wing stands out with two home fixtures against weaker opposition, giving him an excellent platform for points. Despite recent blanks, Amario Cozier-Duberry keeps his place, with the fixtures still offering maximum attacking upside.
- Up front, I’m backing Yousef Salech, who has the ceiling to deliver a major haul this week. He’s joined by Daniel Udoh, who benefits from favourable attacking fixtures and continues to offer solid upside.
- For team selections, MK Dons and Salford City both look strong. Each side carries favourable matchups and plenty of upside going into the round.

NOTES
- I’m backing Jake Eastwood this week, with two favourable home fixtures and strong form on home soil making him a standout option.
- At the back, Jack Sanders earns his place thanks to excellent bonus numbers and a pair of strong home fixtures. He’s joined by Adam Senior, who also plays twice at home and offers genuine attacking upside.
- In midfield, Oliver Norwood appeals for his all-round routes to points, while talisman Lewis Wing comes in for his goal threat and consistent returns.
- Up front, I’m running with two Daniels. Daniel Kanu arrives in strong form and benefits from two attractive home fixtures. Alongside him sits Daniel Udoh, who has looked dangerous throughout the season, with Salford continuing to impress going forward.
- For club selections, I’m backing MK Dons, who I expect to pick up two wins given the quality of their fixtures. Cambridge United are my second choice, having lost just once at home all season and playing both matches on home soil this week.
- The captaincy goes to Oliver Norwood.

NOTES
- Another Double Gameweek arrives, and Jake Eastwood once again looks like one of the strongest options available. Cambridge United’s defence has been exceptional at League Two level, consistently limiting shots and big chances. With favourable fixtures against low-output attacking sides, clean-sheet potential sits very high, alongside strong bonus upside.
- Sonny Bradley remains a reliable defensive pick. Lincoln City stay well organised at the back, and Bradley offers an excellent balance of clean-sheet probability and bonus accumulation, with added threat from set pieces. He continues to provide a safe and consistent route to points.
- Once again, Jack Sanders stands out as an outstanding option. MK Dons boast one of the strongest defensive units in the league, and Sanders combines high clean-sheet potential with genuine goal threat and dependable bonus returns, making him one of the premium defensive picks this week.
- In midfield, Lewis Wing looks elite and shapes up as an excellent captaincy option. He operates as Reading’s talisman, takes penalties, and remains one of the most influential players in the league. With favourable fixtures, he offers both reliability and explosive upside.
- Oliver Norwood continues to appeal even with tougher matchups. He delivers points through multiple routes, including interceptions, defensive actions, and key passes. Penalty duties only strengthen his profile, and his all-round involvement often allows him to return regardless of fixture difficulty.
- Up front, Lorent Tolaj looks well worth consideration. Plymouth Argyle have begun to create more chances, with much of their attacking play now funnelled through him. His sharp finishing and central role give him genuine haul potential, particularly against weaker defences.
- Meanwhile, Yousef Salech stands out as a premium forward option and a true talisman for Cardiff City. Fresh from signing a new contract, he remains the penalty taker and a central figure as Cardiff push towards a return to the Championship. Against struggling opposition, his ceiling is extremely high.

NOTES
- I’m lining up in a 2-2-2 formation this week, with the captaincy handed to Callum Paterson. Alongside that, my team selections focus on MK Dons and Cambridge United, two sides well placed to capitalise on the fixtures.
- A haul of 107 points in Double Gameweek 25 has moved me back inside the top 2k, now sitting at rank 1,968. After spending a long period outside that range, it’s encouraging to head straight into Double Gameweek 26 with momentum already building.
- Starting in goal, I’ve opted for Jake Eastwood, who currently sits second among all EFL goalkeepers for clean sheets this season with nine. While Tranmere Rovers carry some attacking threat away from home, Shrewsbury Town rank joint-bottom for goals scored on their travels. In addition, Cambridge have conceded just seven goals at home all season, which further strengthens the case for backing Eastwood once again.
- At the back, I’ve gone with Jack Sanders and Jack Tucker. Both remain among the highest-scoring defenders in League Two, and more importantly, each offers reliable baseline production. In fact, the pair have combined for an impressive 573 clearances this season, making bonus points a consistent possibility even without attacking returns.
- Moving into midfield, the selections are James Brophy and Oliver Norwood. Cambridge United continue to impress, currently unbeaten in 11 matches and winning four of their last five. As a result, Brophy’s appeal continues to grow, especially after registering an assist and two key passes in three consecutive appearances.
- Meanwhile, Norwood faces two challenging away fixtures against Cardiff City and Blackpool. However, he remains Stockport County’s central figure. His recent output of seven interceptions and six key passes across the last two matches highlights his multiple routes to points, even when goals or assists fail to arrive.
- Up front, I’m backing Callum Paterson alongside Daniel Kanu. Paterson has now delivered 17 goal involvements this season, with eight goals and nine assists across 25 appearances. With two outstanding home fixtures against Shrewsbury Town and Bristol Rovers – sides that concede a combined average of 2.04 goals per 90 away from home – the conditions look ideal for a big return. For that reason, he takes the captaincy.
- Alongside him, Kanu continues to offer excellent value. He has produced 13 goal involvements from just 21 matches, including 11 goals, and now benefits from two home fixtures against 16th-placed Accrington Stanley and 22nd-placed Crawley Town. Consequently, the opportunity to add to his tally is very real.
- From a team-selection perspective, targeting Shrewsbury Town appears the most logical approach. Furthermore, adding exposure to Bristol Rovers only increases the upside, while Tranmere Rovers present a fixture that could swing either way. Overall, the set-up looks well-positioned for strong team returns in the week ahead.
