Frisking the Fixtures

Which teams have the best and worst upcoming fixtures?

With the international break over, we take our regular “frisk” of the Premier League fixture list ahead of Gameweek 9.

In this feature, we assess the top-flight clubs with the strongest and weakest runs of league matches over the coming weeks.

Although our primary focus will be on a six-Gameweek lookahead, we will scrutinise the long-term fixtures beyond that point where relevant.

We’ll be using our Season Ticker to help – Members using this tool can sort by difficulty and teams that rotate well, filter home and away fixtures, and separate attack and defence.

THE STRONG

Leicester City

Next six: BUR | sou | cry | ARS | bha | EVE

Bottom of our Season Ticker for the first eight Gameweeks of 2019/20 yet still sitting fourth in the league after it, Leicester City’s fixture schedule is about to improve dramatically.

Between Gameweeks 9 and 17, the Foxes meet only one of the ‘big six’ – and that is a home fixture against an Arsenal side not renowned for their defensive aptitude.

Leicester’s defence has been one of the stand-out performers from an underlying stats perspective and in their next seven matches, they face five of the seven teams who are currently scoring at a rate of one goal per game or under.

Burnley and Palace, two of their next three opponents, are in the bottom four for big chances created, too.

Those two clubs may be tougher nuts to crack from a defensive perspective but Southampton, Arsenal and Watford, who are all to come between now and Gameweek 15, are in the bottom six for shots on target conceded.

Arsenal

Next six: shu | CRY | WOL | lei | SOU | nor

Arsenal have a similar run to Leicester from now until December.

From Gameweeks 9 to 16, Unai Emery’s side face the two newly promoted clubs, three of last season’s bottom ten and no ‘big six’ clubs.

The Gunners are the only Premier League side not to face one of last season’s top half-dozen teams in the next six Gameweeks and indeed the visit of Manchester City in mid-December is their next encounter with one of these clubs.

With Arsenal’s defence never fully convincing, Fantasy managers may well be focusing more on the Gunners’ attacking assets for this upcoming run – although their next four opponents sit in the bottom eight for attempts on target this season.

From an attacking perspective, a trip to the King Power Stadium won’t be easy, with Leicester having the third-best expected goals conceded (xGC) total of 2019/20 so far.

Sheffield United, Leicester and Crystal Palace are indeed among the five meanest defences in terms of goals conceded this season.

Gameweeks 13-16 look more enticing from an attacking point of view, with Southampton, Norwich and West Ham among the six teams who have conceded the most big chances.

No FPL forward scored more goals than Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.1m) against non-big six sides in 2018/19 (19 in 26 games).

Wolverhampton Wanderers

Next six: SOU | new | ars | AVL | bou | SHU

Wolves sit second-top of our Season Ticker from Gameweeks 9-18 and their recent upturn in form is coinciding nicely with the fixture swing after the international break.

Arsenal are the only ‘big six’ club that Nuno Espirito Santo’s side face between now and mid-December.

After their early-season defensive struggles, no opposition player has scored against Wolves in the last three Gameweeks.

The problem remains Europa League-led rotation, of course, with Conor Coady (£5.0m), Raul Jimenez (£7.1m) and Willy Boly (£5.0m) the only outfielders to avoid a benching so far.

Purely from a fixture perspective, Wolves face five of the seven teams who have allowed the most big chances in Gameweeks 9-15.

At the other end of the pitch, Southampton and Newcastle are two of the four worst teams for goal conversion – although trips to Arsenal and Bournemouth will be sterner tests.

Chelsea

Next six: NEW | bur | wat | CRY | mci | WHU

Chelsea avoid not only the other big six sides over the next four Gameweeks, they also dodge any other club that finished in the top half of the Premier League table last season.

A daunting trip to the Etihad in Gameweek 13 is a cloud on the horizon but there are still appealing home fixtures against West Ham, Aston Villa and Bournemouth before we get to the busy festive period.

The games at Stamford Bridge are particularly enticing as the Blues don’t meet any of last season’s top six clubs in west London until late-January.

Chelsea’s backline still have much to prove but the next four matches look attractive from a defensive perspective, with Newcastle, Burnley, Watford and Palace in the bottom eight for big chances created.

From an attacking perspective, Watford and West Ham are two of the three worst teams for big chances conceded.

On the flip side, Burnley and Palace are among the five best clubs for that statistic.

Manchester City’s ongoing defensive woes will at least give owners of Mason Mount (£6.8m) et al more hope of attacking returns than a visit to the Etihad would have last season.

Manchester United

Next six: LIV| nor | bou | BHA | shu | AVL

A fixture swing for Manchester United beckons after the visit of Liverpool in Gameweek 9, although Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side are hardly making a convincing case to us Fantasy managers at present.

The Red Devils sit top of our Season Ticker from Gameweeks 10-14, taking on five clubs who are currently ranked tenth or below.

The two remaining teams without a Premier League clean sheet to their names this season immediately follow Jurgen Klopp’s side, which should offer hope to the brave souls among us who are backing United’s misfiring attacking assets.

Solskjaer’s troops have been better from a defensive perspective this season and no club has a lower xGC total after eight Gameweeks of 2019/20.

In Bournemouth, Sheffield United and Aston Villa, United are taking on three teams who rank in the bottom six for shots in the box.

Bournemouth

Next six: NOR | wat | MUN | new | WOL | tot

Any fixture run that begins with Norwich and Watford automatically catches the eye, even if the Cherries’ matches beyond that are mixed.

The Canaries and the Hornets have conceded 41 goals and kept just one clean sheet between them, which bodes well for Callum Wilson (£7.9m) and co.

An out-of-sorts Manchester United are there for the taking, too, although the Red Devils are the meanest defence when it comes to expected goals conceded.

A trip to Spurs needn’t hold much fear either, with the Lilywhites having conceded more shots on target than all other clubs bar Norwich.

Everton

Next six: WHU | bha | TOT | sou | NOR | lei

Everton have been staples of this article this season but their excellent run comes to a juddering halt in Gameweek 14, with trips to Leicester, Liverpool and Manchester United interspersed with home matches against Chelsea and Arsenal.

Before that, though, the out-of-sorts Toffees enjoy home matches against the side who have allowed the most big chances (West Ham) and the two teams who allowed the most shots on target (Spurs and Norwich) in 2019/20.

Only the Canaries and Watford have shipped more goals than Southampton, meanwhile.

Also Consider

We’d be foolish to overlook Manchester City’s (cry | AVL | SOU | liv | CHE | new) next three fixtures, even if the trip to Anfield and the visit of Chelsea beyond that are not quite so appealing.

Saturday’s match against Palace is not so straightforward, either, given that the Eagles have only conceded one goal at Selhurst Park all season.

The double-header against Villa and Southampton at the Etihad is enticing, though: those two clubs are among the seven worst teams for big chances conceded this season.

West Ham (eve | SHU | NEW | bur | TOT| che) have their own appealing double-header coming up and a trip to an out-of-sorts Everton before that, three games that ought to offer clean sheet possibilities: the Toffees, Sheffield United and Newcastle are in the bottom four for goals scored this season.

Burnley’s (lei | CHE | shu | WHU | wat | CRY) four fixtures in Gameweek 11-14 are also similarly appealing from a defensive perspective, with all four opponents in the bottom half for big chances created.

We can’t ignore Tottenham Hotspur‘s (WAT | liv | eve | SHU | whu | BOU) ongoing excellent home fixtures, with the Lilywhites’ next four in north London all against teams that finished outside of the top ten last season.

A double-header on Merseyside is a little off-putting, though, along with a trip to an improving West Ham United side.

The Weak

Crystal Palace

Next six: MCI | ars | LEI | che | LIV | bur

It’s hard to imagine a tougher run than the one Crystal Palace have got coming up, with the Eagles now facing six of the top current seven in the top flight – the other team, of course, are Roy Hodgson’s troops themselves.

Palace are, unsurprisingly, rock-bottom of our Season Ticker from Gameweeks 9-14.

The Eagles have been pretty strong from a defensive perspective but in Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea they will face the three Premier League clubs who have scored the most goals this season.

Only Newcastle have carved out fewer big chances than the Eagles and any little interest we have in their attacking assets is likely to be put on ice until after this run.

All bar Arsenal of their next six opponents are among the half-dozen clubs with the meanest defences, based on expected goals conceded.

Budget assets such as Martin Kelly (£4.1m) and Jordan Ayew (£5.1m) look likely to be spending a lot of time on our benches in October and November, then.

Aston Villa

Next six: BHA | mci | LIV | wol | NEW | mun

Villa have two appealing home fixtures against Brighton and Newcastle in the next six Gameweeks but aside from that, there are stiff tests for Dean Smith’s outfit.

Trips to City, an in-form Wolves and Manchester United look tough for Villa’s attacking assets, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s misfiring side nevertheless still fairly solid at the back.

Liverpool, who have conceded the fewest goals this season, visit Villa Park in Gameweek 11.

Villa will at least take solace from the fact they have scored against both north London clubs already this season.

Southampton

Next six:  wol | LEI | mci | EVE | ars | WAT

Southampton’s forthcoming fixture run is perhaps not quite as bad as Palace’s but they face teams that finished in the top half last season in each of the next five Gameweeks.

Away matches at Manchester City and Arsenal look particularly unappealing and their defence is surely a no-go zone until the fixture swing in Gameweek 14.

A fixture against Wolves might have looked appealing a few weeks ago but Nuno Espirito’s Santo have shown an upturn in form and have conceded just one goal in the last three Gameweeks – an own-goal, at that.

Only Liverpool have conceded fewer goals than Leicester, meanwhile.

Even without the fixtures, the Saints’ patchy form and porous defence (only Watford and Norwich have shipped more) are off-putting factors at present.

Sheffield United

Next six: ARS | whu | BUR| tot | MUN | wol

John Lundstram (£4.5m) may find himself on bench duty quite a bit over the coming weeks, with Sheffield United’s fixtures a mixed bag at best.

The Blades will be hoping that Spurs and Manchester United are still in a slump by the time we reach mid-November, while keeping their fingers crossed that Wolves and Burnley’s decent form has taken a turn for the worse.

Owners of Lundstram may consider the fixtures against Burnley, Spurs and Manchester United at a push, all of whom are in the bottom eight for big chances created.

Also Consider

Once again we have to highlight the fact that Liverpool‘s fixture run (mun | TOT | avl | MCI | cry | bha) is far from ideal for those of us with assets from Jurgen Klopp’s side.

While the schedule from Gameweeks 9-12 (and even Palace away in Gameweek 13) may be enough for us to swerve a triple-up, there will be many FPL bosses willing to stick with the likes of Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.2m) through the choppy waters ahead.

Klopp’s troops are, let’s remember, on a 17-match winning run in the Premier League.

The Reds face three big six clubs between now and the November international break but it could be argued that this is the best time to play United, Spurs and City, with all three sides having issues either going forward or at the back.

    Think I'm finally decided on my wc team:

    Pope, McGovern
    Taa, Soyuncu, Rico, Dunk, Lundstram
    Mane, Kdb, Maddison, Mount, Dendoncker
    Aguero, Abraham, wilson

    Any suggestions? Have chopped and changed between Mane/KDB/Sterling/Auba/Aguero so many times!

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I think it's a good one. Very template but good.

    2. suddenorgan
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I'm on literally the same team at the moment and the Maddison + Wilson vs. ? + Vardy conundrum is still bothering me, and I feel slightly cowardly for still ending up with Aguero rather than having the balls to go with Auba and just have KDB from City

    3. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      No Salah OR Sterling? That’s a big red flag for me.. comfortably dominated FPL over the past 2 seasons

    4. ameisin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Mine's exactly the same except:
      Dendo > Cantwell
      Mount > CHO (can't afford Mount).

      Any plans going forwards?

    5. Manani
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      very similar team as mine, except I went for Auba Vardy instead of Kun Wilson (still may change that though)

  2. Bobby Digital
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Play Cantwell or Lundstram?

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years

      Cantwell

    2. Brosstan
      • 9 Years

      Lunny

  3. Tempestic

    0.0ITB 1FT
    Pope
    TAA Tomori Soy Otamendi
    Son Sterling KDB
    Auba Abraham(c) Pukki
    Button - Cantwell Saka Lundstram

    Son to Mount this week or next?

    1. Bobby Digital

      Next

    Why the feck is Connor Wickham still red flagged? Lack of match fitness surely does not warrant a red flag - the lad has been training with the squad for weeks!

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      FPL Towers being kind. It's a warning not to get him.

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Will be price protected though once flag is removed - would be a blessing for my squad

  5. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    3 current worries on my WC atm. Thoughts?

    A) KDB only city
    B) Triple Chels (CHO, Mount, Tam)
    C) No Jimenez

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Need double city attack. 2 of the 3 chelsea boys are enough. Get Tomori for your 3rd blue if you trust their defence. Not touching Jimenez until Wolves are eliminated from Europa

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        You’d take double city attack even if you can’t have a Liverpool attacker then?

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          No. I would recommend Salah, KDB and one of Sterling/Aguero

      2. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Not keen on Tomori, prefer fullbacks. Prefer CHO over Mcginn or Yarmo tbh

    2. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      A) I’m looking like similar. What’s your thoughts on Sterling KDB v Mane KDB?
      B) they are on form but a bit risky. I’d be tempted by Yarmolenko for now over CHO
      C)should be ok rn

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        A) Mane KDB for me atm.
        B) True but prefer fixtures and more of a differential which tempts me
        C) hopefully

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      a) for me KDB and sterling but sterling form is a bit concerning
      b) I've went with the 3. Good fixtures, good value vs potential attacking returns
      c) not considering until after europa exit

  6. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years

    1. Do you expect cry or mun to be a tougher game this weekend? I’m inclined to say cry...

    2. Anyone else on WC rn and risking no Liverpool attack??

      KDB

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah think your , just both In my team right now , but Salah to Sterling isn't worth a -4 is it?

        1. Top Lad Dakes.
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          No

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            I agree

    2. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Hold

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Tbh dont think I can risk having Son , as much as would love have him v Watford, but it probable he won't start.

        1. Eat my goal!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years

          Why won’t he start - wait to see if he trains tomorrow

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Even if he trains, he still probably starts on the bench, there is also some injury doubts being put in the press.

    Heaton Button

    Otamendi Robertson Rico Montoya Tomori

    Salah Sterling KDB Mcginn Mount

    Abraham Pukki Greenwood

    1FT & 1.2m in the bank.

    Thoughts? I can't see past one of these three moves;

    A. Pukki - > Wilson

    B. Pukki - > Jimenez

    C. Save

  10. fkmzcgp

      B

  11. Phil's Stamps
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    After City's two nice home games, what do you think about switching Otamendi to Boly for the mid-long term? On the comparison tool they are almost identical (51% Ota 49% Boly) but that extra 0.5+ in the bank with Boly could come in very handy.

    1. Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Yes

    2. Jekori
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Boly is the new Azpi (or should i say old?) in the sense that he's a massive BAPS-monster. Wolves proved resilient defensively while city have looked vulnerable. It doesn't get much more straightforward than that.

    3. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Boly is rotation-proof as well (although I don't think Ota has that much to worry about at the mo).

      Thanks for the replies.

  17. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Ok to anyone who is wondering Mane v Sterling. You need to broaden your data range past just this season and look back over the last 2/3 years , one clear winner.

    1. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      You need to be quite selective which data you pull from last season tho, as Sterling featured on the right a lot of the time.

    2. F4L
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      now factor in player improvement, change in team systems etc.

      Its not just as simple as comparing who has had the most big chances, shots/touches in the box over the last few years...

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Why would you care about data 2-3 years back?

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

        Did you pick Alexis Sanchez last season?

  18. Manani
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    already got Maddison, should I go for Wilson instead of Vardy?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      These questions have to much context sometimes/all the time, the question is

      Wilson v Vardy = Vardy

      1. Citizenkane91
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Wilson over Varfy next two. Relevant context=time horizon.

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Disagree. Vardy will outscore Wilson over next 2 and you save a ft, Vardy has longevity.

  19. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Given I already have Mount & Abraham...

    A) Salah + Maddison + Vardy
    B) Salah + Maddison + Jimenez (+1.8m)
    C) Mané + Maddison + Vardy (+ 0.9m)
    D) Mané + CHO + Aubameyang

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      A

    2. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Vardy, Mane and CHO?

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        2.2m ITB. Not sure what I'd invest that in right now.

    C) Kelly CHO Sterling Vardy

      C

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      In B is Tomori your 5th DEF?

      Super close between A & C.

    3. Tsparkes10

      C

    4. fgdu
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      i pick A because i think mount is a much better pick over CHO and i think aguero > sterling this year

  21. Tsparkes10

    On WC.

    A) Cononlly (bench) , Sterling, Lowton, Soy
    B) Vardy, Saka (bench), Perreira, Tierney

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

      I'd go A. B is high-risk/high-reward, with a lot depending on Tierney finally getting a first team spot. Would be more exciting tho having defenders that can manage 10+ points

      1. Tsparkes10
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Exactly. Bored of 4.5m defenders and Sterling now tbh. Easy enough to make the changes back with 2 FT

  22. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Why cant you search and find Son on FPL stats?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      You can type Son he is on page 2

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Oh yea there he is, im blind! But searching Son or Heung-Min will not bring up Son for me. Weird

        1. Annie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Try and find Söyüncü

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Soy and he is there.

          2. have you seen cyan
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Lol he comes up even if I type Soy, must be the North Koreans

          3. lespaul
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            He's in Leicester

        2. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah it is weird.

      Too many players with son in surname.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Yea I guess, first player I ever found who I cant search

    Is it worth WC to get team A or stick with team B and keep WC?

    A Play WC for Team A
    B Save WC and play Team B

    Team A

        Think that’s good advice! Thanks......getting too trigger happy

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Your team is good.

          1. Pep Roulette
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            Exactly! It looks like a WC team to me!

        2. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          I would just probably start Cantwell instead of Rico, but that just a personal preference.

    2. Jekori
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      B. You have a great team and wc-ing just to move some big hitters around comes with big risks too

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      B could easily outscore A. Beginning of 2 week break was considering selling Aguero to get Vardy in

  25. Eastman
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Any comments on this WC team appreciated. Concerned no KDB but can’t fit him in:
    Ryan (McGovern)
    VVD Pereira Boly (Lundstram Rico)
    Mané Sterling Mount Yarmolenko (Dendonker) Vardy Wilson Tammy

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      V nice mate. But I'd go KDB over Sterl, VVD to TAA and have some nice money itb

    2. chaser123
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Don't want TAA?

    3. Jekori
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Although it's boring, like everyone will keep saying: You need TAA and KdB. Madness to go without either one on WC

      1. Eastman
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks. It’ll be Sterling to KDB then

    Just did Pukki/Barnes to Wilson/Jimenez.

    Boom.

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

      I'm sure Jimmy can still party like last year. And Callum has been for almost the whole season so good moves 😉

  27. robt

    A. Tielemans & Azpi

    OR

    B. Maddison & Tomori

      B, easily IMO.

    Would really appreciate your thoughts on:
    a) no wildcard (-8 points)
    b) wildcard

    Pope Button
    VVD Otamendi Tomori Rico Hanley
    Sterling KDB Maddison Mount Dendoncker
    Auba Vardy Abraham

    1. chaser123
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      If I wildcarded, I'd look to sort out the defence and would probably replace Auba with Wilson....

  30. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Traore must be the most obvious trap I ever saw. Its like leaving a bear trap on a quiet, well lit street wheres theres no mobile phone signal

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Hard to argue having seen him for a season at Villa

    2. Jekori
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      But it has such a nice shiny gem inside it tho! tbf he'll keep playing, you don't know where ok, but still, 5.0 ain't that much money.

    3. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      lol, I should have added its lipstick pink as well
