Fixtures

Get ready for Scout coverage of FPL 2019/20 fixture release

The fixtures for the 2019/20 Premier League season are released today – and Fantasy Football Scout is the place to follow it all.

The schedules for each top-flight team will come out at 09:00 BST, which will give us the first indication of who to look at for early FPL drafts.

We will have extensive coverage of fixture release all throughout the day.

There will be an initial reaction to the news soon after 09:00 BST where we plan to pull out the key talking points from the first batch of Gameweeks.

As soon as we are able to, the Season Ticker will be updated with all of 2019/20’s matches.

Those who have signed up for Membership ahead of the new season will be able to make the most out of this feature once it has gone live.

At lunch-time today, Fantasy Football Scout readers will receive a double-helping.

From 12:30 BST you will be able to read our analysis of the teams who have the best fixtures at the start of the 2019/20 campaign.

At the same time, we will also be streaming live from our YouTube channel to discuss the fixtures in more detail.

At 17:00 BST we will bring out our assessment of the teams who are potentially worth avoiding based on poor fixtures in the early part of 2019/20.

Finally, at 20:00 BST will be a complete guide to fixture rotation for the new season.

This will include the theory behind the practice, for those as yet unaware, as well as opportunities for how to apply it to 2019/20’s early fixtures.

Don’t forget to stick with us all day to enjoy Fixture Release Day to the maximum.

    Will be interesting. Things I will be looking out for:

    1) Fixture runs where the Top 6 (Liv, Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Man Utd, Spurs) are avoided
    2) Fixture runs where the Top 6 + Leicester, Everton and Wolves are avoided
    3) Fixtures which pair well home and away

      Will help to plan must have qcaptain picks.

      I'll be trying to pick players that will score highly.
      " " " " " " " " " " and are cheap.
      " " " " avoid " " " " lowly.
      " " " " " " " " " " and are expensive.
      Think I may have nailed it finally.

    Fixtures in & around champs league group stages will be mildly interesting - where rotation could start to bite if it hasn’t already

    1. Majestic Chanka
      • 7 Years

      Got to admit I reckon rests will take place in the CL rather than PL during groups, maybe for 5th/6th fixtures if teams are struggling in CL.

    Popular players in Fantasy Cricket World Cup today:

    IND: Kohli (49%), Bumrah (42%), Pandya (36%), Dhoni (28%), Sharma (23%), Chahal (15%)
    NZ: Boult (13%)

    High chance of a washout today though.

    How will the Winter Break affect FPL GWs this year ? Will it still just be 1 GW split across 2 weekends ?

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Good question - they either go to 39 GW’s or alternatively elongate a GW in February by 7 days to pull in the second block of 5 fixtures

      1. MB10
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        39 GWs would be interesting

    2. Bury94
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Surely just 1 GW over 2 weekends

    3. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Hope it remains as one GW. As much as things like DGWs and chips etc. add to the strategy of the game, I prefer it when it goes back to brass tacks - simply picking players who will do well.

  7. Markus

    Interested to see where we think Liverpool fixtures might be disrupted with World club championship. I think that could be interesting point for chips given most people will have 3 pool

    Fixture spreadsheets with 3 way rotation at the ready! 😀

    If Salah keeps playing like he has, seeing as how he totaled 303 points in 2017/18 and 259 points last season, bar any injuries, how many points do you think he’ll total this upcoming season? (Will bookmark.)

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      276

    2. Spike ⚽️

      It's easy to work out. The next number in the sequence is 215

      509 and a half

    Silly Question - when will they close down the 2018/19 FPL site?

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Could be any time. I'd look at whatever you need to look at while you can.

    Supercup is on the 14th of August and yet Liverpool at home to Norwich on the Friday and Chelsea got Utd away on the Sunday. The fixture computer not a blues fan it seems!

      Arsenal got Spurs (h) GW4 aswell, horrible fixtures to start with.

  18. Bury94

    • 6 Years

    Everton have got a pretty decent start, Digne looks a shoe-in

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Arsenal getting their trashing away at Liverpool in GW3 this year. Nice to get it out of the way early I suppose before rebounding to beat Spurs at home a week later.

    Hello ladies.

  22. FPL ZB
    • Has Moderation Rights

    Kane Salah Sterling.. goodbye budget

    1. Emiliano Sala
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      F Kane

    2. FPL ZB
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Revise that.. Spurs isn’t great

  23. Emiliano Sala
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Wanted jota
    But wolves got awful start

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      What? Are we playing teams from the bottom half?

  24. Now I'm Panicking
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    I just came on to rate some RMTs

    1. GUNNERINHO
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      First, can you tell who the promoted teams are paired with ?

  25. Marmalade Forest
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Righto.
    Obviously we’ll all be picking one or two Liverpool attackers for GW1.

    But how much do we think is too much for the Liverpool defenders?

    Would we all turn our nose up at 7m for Robertson/VVD and 6.5 for TAA?

    1. The_Fish
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I'll have at least 1 of Robbo and Trent, even if they're 8m

    2. GREEN IS GOOD
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      7 and 6.5 would be a bargain

  26. The_Fish
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Triple City and Triple Liverpool essential and then whatever else I can fit in.

  27. Make Arrows Green Again

    Ticker not updated yet? Poor show FFS 😉

  28. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Anyone know the dates for the FIFA World Club cup are? Can't find anything on it expect that it takes place in December. Is Liverpool vs Watford on December 14th the most likely fixture to be moved to another gameweek?

  29. JabbaWookiee
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Anyone considering triple Pool defence - Robbo, TAA, VVD?

    1. GREEN IS GOOD
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Yes, but Salah C might be important

  30. Portsmouth Bubblejet
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    The 38-game home/away rotating pairs for the 2019-20 season are:

    Arsenal – Spurs
    Aston Villa – Burnley
    Chelsea – Watford
    Leicester - Brighton
    Liverpool – Everton
    Manchester City – Manchester United
    Newcastle – Sheffield United
    Norwich – Crystal Palace
