Liverpool and West Ham differentials to consider for Double Gameweek 24

Gameweek 23 saw double-digit returns for Paolo Gazzaniga (£4.6m), John Fleck (£5.0) and, one of our differential selections from last week, Leandro Trossard (£5.8m).

All of these players have a Fantasy Premier League ownership of 5% or less, suggesting there is still budget value to capitalise on and help propel you up the rankings.

This time, two of our picks have Double Gameweeks to enjoy, whilst the third is looking to kickstart his career at a new club.

Joe Gomez

  • FPL ownership: 4.2%
  • Price: £5.2m
  • GW24-28 fixtures: wol + whu | SOU | nor | WHU | wat

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool are among two sides involved in Double Gameweek 24, and will visit both Wolverhampton Wanderers and West Ham United over the coming eight days.

Loading up on their assets is a no-brainer but if your budget won’t stretch to one of Liverpool’s premium defenders, FPL bosses could do a lot worse than look at Joe Gomez (£5.2m).

The 22-year-old centre-half has completed 90 minutes in each of the Reds’ last seven league games, in which they’ve kept seven clean sheets, and has returned 44 points in the process. Interestingly, that’s identical to Andrew Robertson (£7.0m) over the same period.

The return of Joel Matip (£5.2m), and to a lesser extent Dejan Lovren (£5.3m), could impact his minutes, but the feeling amongst supporters is that his consistent displays alongside Virgil van Dijk (£6.4m) has secured his spot in the first team for now.

Whilst this part of the analysis is usually reserved for the opposition, this is Liverpool, and they are that good that it’s perhaps not even necessary. It goes without saying that two further clean sheets are a real possibility.

Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.6m) remain the stand-out picks but if funds are needed further forward, Gomez’s price of just £5.2m offers real value.

Sébastien Haller

  • FPL ownership: 3.3%
  • Price: £7.0m
  • GW24-28 fixtures: lei + LIV | BHA | mci | liv | SOU

Talk of Liverpool assets has rightly dominated discussion in the FPL community since their Double Gameweek was announced last month but what about the other team involved, West Ham United?

Back-to-back matches against Leicester City and Liverpool limits their appeal but their subsequent Gameweek 25 fixture at home against Brighton and Hove Albion offers further encouragement.

For those in search of a mid-price forward, Sébastien Haller (£7.0m) may be worth a look.

The Frenchman does look low on confidence but has pedigree, having supplied 15 goals and nine assists for Eintracht Frankfurt last season.

His underlying stats over the last three Gameweeks are also worth noting, with only four forwards taking more shots in the box.

Whilst it’s ambitious to think Haller will return anything more than appearance points against Liverpool, an encounter against Leicester looks more promising for West Ham’s attacking prospects. The Foxes have conceded 12 since Gameweek 18 – only Aston Villa have let in more in that time.

Talking after Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Everton, David Moyes suggested his team need to take advantage of Haller’s aerial ability and supply him with more crosses in dangerous areas in the box.

If West Ham’s wide players take heed of those instructions and provide better service to their record signing, Haller could soon add to his six goals for the Hammers.

Cenk Tosun

  • FPL ownership: 0.3%
  • Price: £5.7m
  • GW24-28 fixtures: SOU | SHU | – | NEW | bha

When you think about Crystal Palace, resolute defensive performances are something you associate with them.

Goal threat certainly isn’t.

However, the arrival of Cenk Tosun (£5.7m), combined with Jordan Ayew’s (£5.0m) fine form, means they may have addressed some of those issues.

Tosun, who joined Palace on loan from Everton earlier this month, earned his first start against Manchester City on Saturday and scored a clinical header just before half-time, helping the Eagles secure a 2-2 draw with the reigning champions.

On the back of that draw, the Eagles are now undefeated in five league games and sitting pretty on 30 points.

In addition to the obvious attributes associated with a target man, Tosun also has the ability to find pockets of space, whilst possessing enough composure to play in others. It wouldn’t surprise me if we see one or two assists in the forthcoming weeks.

Their opponents, Southampton, have put up good defensive numbers in recent weeks, but despite this have managed only one clean sheet in their last eight away matches.

As far as debuts go, Tosun’s was excellent, and whilst it is only one game, maybe he’s found the right environment at Selhurst Park to thrive.

Those considering this move should be aware Tosun will miss Gameweek 26 due to being ineligible to face his parent club, Everton.

    Start ings or greenwood?

    Hearing talk of an ings rest and don't want him blocking potential greenwood points v Burnley if it does turn out to be true.

    1. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Settled then

    2. Big Ping
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Unless he's knackered, wouldn't it make more sense to play him tonight and rest him against Pool?

  3. Totti
    • 7 Years

      Deeney and Martial can work

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    With Richarlison out, Traore will start for me. I have the funds to swop him for anyone up to 9.5 for a -4 hit.

    Considering I have 3 Liverpool already, is there anyone worth taking a hit for?

  12. Rotation's Alter Ego
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    If I had left my team alone all season, I'd be on 1340 points.

    Instead I'm on 1264. 76(!) points worse off. Safe to say I haven't enjoyed this season.

    Anyways, check yours here. Desperately looking for someone who has been more of a hindrance than I have been...

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights

      101 better, 1207

    2. Pras (FPL)
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      73 better, 1223. This is quite cool though - it even takes into account autosubs and VCs

    3. Chucky
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      lol i would be on 1055 points and my active team is 259 points ahead 😀

    4. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      only 7 points better off

    5. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      1121, so I'd be far worse off than I am now.

    6. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Lmao. I'm 7 points better off

    7. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years

      I would have 1209 while now i'm on 1400.. I will destroy this lovely points this week.

    8. the dom 1

      1292 so only 18pts difference

    9. OverTinker

      I am 170 points better

    10. Tambling5
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Well I would be 48 pts. better off also on 1340!

  13. B Sharp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years

    Noble or Trossard? Means potentially losing Sarr to the peasants beneath me in the table. One of which now has 3 west ham assets. Hmmm

  14. fkmzcgp
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Should I do DCL and Vardy to Aguero and Greenwood after the games tonight (for GW25)?

    I don't like doing early transfers but if Aguero rises tonight I wont be able to afford it!

  15. ChelseaGuy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years

    Any chance there might be 3 more DGWs after this? Not sold on Pool TC

    1. Make Arrows Green Again
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      If I get more than one point it will be an improvement on last season.

      If I get more than three points it will be my best haul for three years.

      At this point I'd be glad of anything!

    Anyone like the +'s tonight on the cap? Villa, Bournemouth and Palace all dogs at home... albeit probably DNB.

    Even the Newcastle, Sheffield United and Arsenal + look decent

          What's your choice if Pope was your GK?
          It's Lund vs Kelly in the end regardless of GK

        Very much so. Probably the worst pick going. However, only players available are Ox, Noble, fornals

  27. Rolls-Royce

      They are the best sort of dreams...
      I dreamt Mane did his hamstring 24 minutes in and Vardy scores two penalties against west ham.

    I have 7.4mil available for a Rashford replacement.

    Already have TAA Salah and Mane.

    Up front i have Ings and Vardy.

    Should Haller be the choice due to DGW?

    In a Head 2 Head league against the current leader and he has Tammy, Vardy & Greenwood
