Having looked at the Blank and Double Gameweek implications from Tuesday’s UEFA Champions League ties, we now do the same with Wednesday’s fixtures.

DOUBLE GAMEWEEK 33/BLANK GAMEWEEK 34

FPL notes: Wirtz returns, Ekitike rested + Ngumoha bright

In short, little changes with the eliminations of Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur.

Newcastle and Arsenal are still very likely to double in Gameweek 33 and blank in Gameweek 34. That’s because of the Gunners and their progress in the Champions League and FA Cup.

Tottenham will not have any Blank or Double Gameweeks this season – barring unexpected postponements for things like inclement weather.

Arne Slot’s side’s progress to the Champions League quarter-finals does mean one thing, however. Should the Reds get past Manchester City in the FA Cup quarter-finals, Liverpool and Crystal Palace would blank in Gameweek 34 and very likely double in Gameweek 33.


Everything Blank/Double Gameweek-related will be pretty much rubber-stamped before the Gameweek 32 deadline. Until then, we’re inching closer to a few likelier scenarios.

    Kelleher
    VvD | VdV | Hill
    Bruno | Gordon | Wilson | Scott
    Ekitike | Thiago | JP

    Did Haaland + Rice for Gordon + Thiago. Kinda tempted to punt (imagine using that word only six months ago) on Salah, but nah.

      Damn right, ef that guy.

      You won't see Salah on wildcards next week, it's been a sentimental punt for the YouTubers lol.

        I bet you do if City lose to Liverpool in the Cup!

    Best 2 strikers for a 1 week punt besides Thiago..

    Pedro, Sesko, Richarlison, Jimenez, Ekitike, Bowen, DCL all in the mix..

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years

      Jimenez and Richa

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…

      Ekitike is a no. Jimenez and Richa probably, although Sesko, so hot right now, Sesko.

    3. _Greg

      I'd probably buy Pedro and Bowen. I'd be too concerned this is the week Muniz starts I think.

      Looks absolutely fine dude.

        Thanks bud. Wasn't too sure about the defence.

    Best for this gw?
    A) Andersen vs BUR
    B) Hall vs SUN

    1. _Greg

      It's quite difficult to get defcons Vs Burnley, they also score fairly frequently. Tyne Wear derby doesn't feel like a clean sheet game either, but chance of attacking return is higher with Hall so I saw go with him.

    2. SpaceCadet

      A

      Great differential. good luck.

      UCL fantasy is too sweet! 123 pts here. Hope you played Kane? 🙂

        yep. Fortunately keeping Cancelo and Ruggeri on bench didnt backfire

          Good job!

    Play Rayan or sell for Gordon with FT:

    A) Rayan (MAN)

    1 - Play Hill v United
    Or
    2 - take a hit (-4) to buy and play Wilson and drop hill on the bench

    Thank you

    Is this worth it for free?

    Chalobah to Lewis hall?

    A. Yes
    B. No

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years

      Hall might not start, wait for presser

        Why wouldn't he start? Was no suggestion of injury last night?

    2. Kingy109

      Lewis Hall is quality.
      However Thiaw is more nailed, is cheaper, has better Def con and offers more goal threat. If more than a one week punt he's the sensible choice.

    Better mid to transfer and hold till GW33 BB?

    A. Szoboszlai
    B. Gordon

    1. Kingy109
      • 4 Years

      Gordon is the more likely to double in 33

    "Should the Reds get past Manchester City in the FA Cup quarter-finals, Liverpool and Crystal Palace would blank in Gameweek 34 and very likely play in Gameweek 33."

    Is it "very likely play in Gameweek 33' or 'very likely DOUBLE in Gameweek 33'?

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      1 month, 1 day ago

      Both. Very likely to play each other in Gameweek 33 as the second part of a double.

    Which to bring in if I can only have one?

    A)Szobo
    B)Gordon

    1. Kingy109

      WC32 or not?
