Fixtures

When will the Blank and Double Gameweeks take place in FPL this season?

Monday’s surprise announcement that the EFL Cup final would move back two months has caused a stir in the Fantasy world, as it would seem to have implications for the Blank and Double Gameweek picture.

First off, there will very likely be a Blank Gameweek 33, in which one or two Premier League fixtures will be postponed depending on how many top-flight clubs progress through the quarter-finals and semi-finals of the EFL Cup.

Secondly, Gameweek 26 will, barring any further weather or COVID-related postponements, have a full complement of 10 Premier League games taking place on the last weekend of February.

The free midweek after Gameweek 26 may well have accommodated any postponements from the weekend had the EFL Cup final clash occurred as originally scheduled.

Instead, it may now host other rearranged games, be it the outstanding fixtures from Gameweeks 1 and 11 and/or other cup-related postponed matches.

So here’s what we know about the Blank/Double Gameweek picture so far…

WHICH BLANK AND DOUBLE GAMEWEEKS ARE SO FAR CONFIRMED?

Blank Gameweek 18 and Double Gameweek 19 have been confirmed by Fantasy Premier League and look as follows:

WHICH FIXTURES REMAIN OUTSTANDING?

Three postponed fixtures (two from Gameweek 1 and one from Gameweek 11) are yet to be rearranged. They are:

  • Burnley v Manchester United
  • Manchester City v Aston Villa
  • Aston Villa v Newcastle

It’s possible that two of those could still fall within Gameweeks 18 or 19, thus adding to the Double Gameweek 19 fixture bonanza or meaning that fewer teams will be without a match in Blank Gameweek 18.

But other dates are possible, as we’ll discuss below.

WHEN COULD OTHER BLANK GAMEWEEKS OCCUR?

There are two Gameweeks in which the Premier League schedule clashes with a cup competition and there is no ‘free’ midweek afterwards. These Gameweeks, therefore, could be ‘blanks’:

  • Gameweek 29: The FA Cup quarter-finals take place on the same weekend. An international break subsequently follows, so any postponed league matches couldn’t take place in the ensuing days. Anywhere between zero and eight league games could be affected.
  • Gameweek 33: The EFL Cup final takes place on the same weekend, with the Champions League and Europa League semi-finals scheduled for the following midweek. Between one and two league matches will be affected.

WHEN COULD OTHER DOUBLE GAMEWEEKS OCCUR?

  • Gameweek 26: The most obvious time to stage any outstanding matches will be Gameweek 26, given that no domestic or European competitions are scheduled to place straight afterwards and a free midweek opens up. Two of the three postponed matches from Gameweeks 1/11 could be candidates for this week, as could any rearranged Gameweek 29 clashes.
  • Gameweeks 32 and 37: There are free midweeks immediately after these two Gameweeks, which happen to clash with the FA Cup semi-finals and final. It would make sense for any fixtures affected by those FA Cup ties to be merely shunted back three or four days, but there is the capacity to absorb outstanding matches from other Gameweeks if required.

There are other possible options for a small Double Gameweek, such as Gameweek 23 – although that would require clubs being eliminated early from the FA Cup and thus having a free midweek when the fifth round is due to take place.

WHEN ARE THE CHIPS AVAILABLE?

Joshua Bull crowned overall FPL champion for 2019/20

A shrewd chip strategy will be needed to navigate through this tricky period of Blank and Double Gameweeks, and that’s before we acknowledge the possibility of COVID-19 wreaking more havoc on the football calendar.

The chips, which can’t be used in conjunction with another in the same Gameweek, are available as follows:

Bench Boost, Triple Captain and Free Hit – can be used once a season at any time.

First Wildcard – available until the start of Gameweek 16 (Monday 28 December at 13:30 GMT).

Second Wildcard – available after the start of Gameweek 16 (Monday 28 December at 13:30 GMT).

          Cheers bud! To you too with Stones, both solid buys.

            • 10 Years

            I’ll probably grab Dias in a couple weeks too anyway πŸ˜‰

              Nice, same if all goes well I may even double up with Stones/Cancelo πŸ™‚

                • 10 Years
                3 years, 3 months ago

                That’s one of the reason I went stones, keeps that option open

                1. Salah’s Sonnet
                  • 12 Years
                  3 years, 3 months ago

                  Yep, makes sense, I’ve had to take a slightly more aggressive approach as no decent bench cover until after GW potentially.

                  1. The Suspended One

                    • 10 Years
                    3 years, 3 months ago

                    That comment finally convinced me on Stones, I realized I have good options if he doesn’t play and Dias could wait

    6. Flair

      Dias!

      oh nice one Balbuena dropped back down, cheers

    9. Nice to Finally Michu
      • 10 Years

      2 Up! (essentially 3 as I'm looking at Balbuena for the DGW)

    10. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      amazing that people are going for the Stones trap again with the left footed Laporte nearly back from injury ... we know the best CB pairing at City πŸ˜‰

  4. There Can Be Only One
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    So guys I'm planning to bring TAA in do I do it for

    A)Dias
    B)Zouma

    I'm currently leaning towards selling Dias but just wanted your opinion, both have done really well for me and have got some decent points.

    Other option is downgrade Neto/Soucek and then upgrade KWP.

    This is the rest of the team

    Martinez - Forster
    Robbo - ZOUMA - DIAS - KWP - Coufal
    Salah - Son - Fernandes - Neto - Soucek
    DCL - Bamford - Wilson

    1.9m itb

    1. All Hail K
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Wait for the Dias price rise tonight.

      1. All Hail K
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Personally I'd hold onto both this week. They both have good chances of cleanies which means TAA will have to score or assist on top of the clean sheet to make it worth it.

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Just got Dias and here you are thinking of selling him? Can understand it I guess if you want TAA but no way I’d be booting him with City’s fixtures. Would have to be Zouma imo, or the second option to upgrade KWP.

    3. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      It would be Dias if you are FH 18

      1. There Can Be Only One
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        If I do dias to Taa it also gives me 9 DGW players. (Martinez and Son as SGW). But I'm still not 100% on getting rid of either. I may just hold fire and wait a few weeks.

        Sadly I'm 0.1m short of Neto to Grealish which would have been the move I wanted.

        1. The Suspended One
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          I wouldn’t suggest it if not for dgw plans, I think it changes things

  5. pakornk

    Chilwell -> Cresswell or Zouma?

  6. Tsparkes10

    I avoided Salah. Took a -4 and going to risk it before I wc... could go horribly wrong lol.

    McCarthy
    KWP Robertson Coufal
    KDB Son Grealish Bruno
    Firmino DCL Bamford
    (Nyland, Konsa, Podence, Mitchell)

    1. The Suspended One

            I physically can’t sell him at 25% ownership. I tried and I can’t do it.

  7. Tiki-Taka
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Having used 1st WC, planning on FH 18 and BB 19 - does this BB team look strong enough for just one -4 hit before GW19?

    Martinez / Johnstone
    James / Dallas / Dier / Coufal / Balbuena
    Bruno / KDB / Salah / Son / Raphina
    Bamford / Antonio(Haller) / DCL

    1. luk46
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      looks nice, would maybe want a Liverpool defender, but g2g overall

  8. FDMS All Starz
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Working towards this team for gw18 team (7 players) is it enough or would you still FH? (will play BB chip in gw19 with 2FTs: KDB & Kane --> Salah & Vardy)

    mccarthy
    DIAS - CANCELO - MARCAL
    SON - KDB - NETO - bruno
    KANE - bamford - adams

    (johnstone - rapinha - justin - dallas)

    1. luk46
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I think 7 is the minimum you should have, looks alright... what are you doing with Marcal and Neto for gw19?

    2. JonSnow
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Have the same plan here, will try to filed 7-8 of mostly spurs & city and then keep 2ft up my sleeve and do a -4 3 transfers to set myself up for GW19. City have a favourable fixture in 20 as well so may work out well.

  9. Footieboot
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Martinez
    Chilwell Reguilon Justin Coufal Mitchell
    KDB Bruno Son Grealish Zambo
    Kane DCL Bamford

    2FT 0ITB

    Who do I sacrifice for Salah?

    1. luk46
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Grealish + Kane > Salah + Adams looks a no brainer imo, also with dgw19 in mind

    2. All Hail K
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Leicester just shut out Spurs, so if you think they can do the same to ManU then Bruno.

    3. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Any money tied up? If no then Bruno if yes then kdb or Kane. Depends on tomorrow

    4. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Similar team to mine, actually the same 7 attackers. My options are down to 3:
      A. KDB > Salah very reluctantly due to KDB (NEW)
      B. Grealish Kane > Salah Adam (-4)
      C. Grealish Son > Salah Soucek (-4)

      1. Footieboot
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Probably doing Chilwell + Reguilon + Bruno to Salah + Stones + Dier
        Will build a GW18 squad and FH19

  10. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    I actually had a really good week for once.
    3 mil OR to 2.1 mil OR
    I don’t think it’s any coincidence it’s the week Son and Kane stayed quiet.

    I have chilwell, rjames and lamptey all flagged.
    Chillwell to Robertson or TAA and hold longterm?
    Never saw the game on the weekend, did TAA pass the eye test or is Robertson the better option, chasing in ML

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Robbo better but Trent is different

    2. leeboy104
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I've not seen anything from Trent this season to convince me to choose him over Robbo. Even the assist on the weekend was more about Hendo's great finish rather than Trent doing anything. Trent has lower ownership so can be treated as a differential, but Robbo for me.

  13. waldo666
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Must admit, I haven't been giving the blanks/doubles the attention they deserve, terrible time of year for them to lob.

    With 1st WC in tact do we think the best option may be to WC16 with focus on GW19 double players and then FH for 18? Have seen plenty planning to utilise BB and/or TC over this time too. I really don't have the time to ensure optimisation and so probably best for me to keep those up my sleeve for future doubles?

    I know it's all been discussed to death but indulge me if you will πŸ™‚

      1. waldo666
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Food for thought, cheers.

    1. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If I had a wc that has to be used by 16 I would have 15 to allow me to get through both 18 and 19 without a FH in 18. There would have to be some compromises but I think it can work , especially if not Playing BB in 19.

      1. waldo666
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Cheers mate, I need to start running through a few permutations and screen shotting so I don't get lost!

          It’s always mind bending but fun and it’s the planning and seeing it come off is what keeps us playing this silly game if you ask me πŸ™‚

            • 13 Years

      I don’t know. It can work but form seems to be trumping fixtures this year. Firmino is a huge diff if you are willing to risk it.

    Reposting - Hello guys, Im planning my future transfers in preparation for BGW 18. I have FH, TC, and will have the 2nd WC available by then. I would like to save my second WC and only play my FH chip in DGW 19.

    Current team
    Martinez* Steer
    Chilwell Reece Lamptey* Taylor Mitchel*
    GroB* Salah Bruno Son* Grealish*
    Kane* Bamford Wilson*

    * = Players that have a match on BGW18 = Total of 8

    This week planned transfers are:
    Chilwell and Reece to Walker and Dier give me 2 additional players with good fixtures that also play on BGW18. Total = 10 players for BGW18

    I will then use an additional transfers to get other assets, may do Salah/Bruno to KDB and then take a hit to bring him back.

    With this plan, I dont have to use my second WC, and will only FH on DGW 19. What are your thoughts? Good plan?

    1. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      I keep saying this -the next blank GW will be around GW 28 and will most likely be horrible to negotiate without aFH even with the second WC intact.
      If I were you I would be happy with the 8 I have for GW18.
      Hold the FH and take a hit to bring 2 more dgwers in for 19
      The Spurs and City assists have a great single fixture in 19. Just my opinion

      1. KUN+10

        Thanks for your input. It will be hard to try and get players in the double game week and at the same time get players that perform in 18, without a chip I mean.

        1. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Yeah it wouldn’t be perfect and would require compromise but I just think the FH is such a valuable chip.
          You got much profit on Salah or Bruno? If going to KDB for a week just make sure you have the cash to get them back in.

      2. Yankee Toffee
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Why will it be horrible to negotiate? Should be as difficult to prepare for as any other BGW/DGW, no?

      3. Sanchit
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I disagree. Whatever the situation would be, it won't be similar to 18 and 19 where a blank is directly followed by a DGW.
        This particular situation is making things pretty bad. If we had 4-5 gameweeks in between the blank and DGW, then it didn't make sense to use the FH as we could build for both using FT's

        1. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Fair point - possible double 26 to blank 29 you might be able to plan for - it’s tight though or again you are compromising how many dgwers you get out, but that needs to be the case for one blank either way and FH for the other.

    3 years, 3 months ago

    if i do bruno and chilwell to salah and stones.

    i will have stones mahrez kdb(too much?)

    perhaps i should look at the lineup later vs arsenal and decide again?

    i can bench mahrez vs newcastle..

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      3 years, 3 months ago

      You aren't benching Mahrez vs Newcastle.
      Lineups (extra info) worth 0.1m at least.

      1. Letsgo!
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        why not... tbh i really feel mahrez gonna start vs arsenal ..

        1. TorresMagic™

          • Has Moderation Rights

          May as well sell Mahrez if you are benching him.

  20. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    What is the minimum you would want out for 18? I am considering only 7.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      7 is fine if 7 good options.
      If they are mainly 2 pointers, get more.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        One would be Brewster πŸ™
        KDB Dias Dier and Son and will try to add 2 more to these

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          What scorelines are you expecting?

          No Villa goal, maybe another City defender, DCL/Wilson?, Kane?

          1. Albrightondknight
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Yeah good picks.
            I would be thinking Wilson, another City and/or Spurs attacker.
            I am very cash limited and even hokey kokey is difficult as I may not be able to afford to buy back any I sell due to value gained. I might be mad saying this but I like what I see of Tierney lately.

            1. Albrightondknight
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 3 months ago

              I meant another city or Spurs defender.

    2. Yankee Toffee
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I'm working on 8-9
      Martinez,
      Stones, Reguilon, Webster, (Mitchell)
      KDB, Son, Grealish,
      DCL, (Brewster)

      Realistically, Mitchell and Brewster won't play

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        So you will then FH in 19?

        1. Yankee Toffee
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Don't want to but might need to depending.

          City and Spurs have a great fixture so I want to hold the FH and maybe do TC Salah in 19. I think FH will be more useful/valuable later down the line.

          how about you?

          1. Albrightondknight
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            I think I have given up on BB 19.
            I have very few 18 players so if I FH it will be in 18 but like you I want to hold the FH it possible. And yes all options though hard are made easier by having City and Spurs options

  21. tc93

    Guess I just burn a transfer this week? Got 2FT 0.0 ITB. Could find a better 4.5 than Ayling potentially?. Feel like I should be do prep for the incoming fixtures and already used my WC.

    Team:
    Martinez
    Chillwell / KWP / Dias
    Salah (c) / Fernandes / Son / Grealish / KDB
    Adams / Bamford

    Bench: Button, Ayling, Michell, Davis

    1. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Chilwell to Zouma and Mitchell to Taylor/ Coufal or something similar if a bit short on cash. This presumes you will BB in 19.
      Next week I think Grealish out.
      Current team looks very good btw.

      1. tc93
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks mate- was having a terrible season until the last few weeks- shot up to 500k last week. I like those moves but I couldn’t afford unless I go for James over Zouma.. is chill we’ll defiantly out?

        1. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Don’t know but watching it live he seems to go over on that ankle pretty nasty. Might only be a sprain but you would have to think he is out this week at least. He sat down immediately and didn’t even try to run it off.

        2. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Such a bad season for me too but 3 mil to close to 2 mil OR rise this week is a bit of an early Christmas present. πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

          1. tc93
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Glad to hear mate. Been a strange season I was 1.5 mil a few weeks ago- just goes to show what you can do with a couple of hauls. Do you think James is an ok replacement then? Could do Chillwell + Michell to James and Coufal then

              • 12 Years

              James is also injured and unlikely to play every game, steer clear for now imo

  22. FPL Doctor

      I might get him for Wilson if my defence gets healthy.

    What is a better combo for DGW19?

    A) Fabianski, Adams

  30. olly:)
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Have 6.9 for a 1 week punt on a FWD, already own Bamford.

    A) Watkins
    B) Che
    C) Other (if so who?)

    Think Watkins is the better option not regarding fixture but do rate Palace defence higher than Fulhams. Thoughts?

    1. olly:)
      • 8 Years

      also already have triple leeds so cannot get Rodrigo..

          I have had triple Leeds since a long time.
          Meslier
          Dallas
          Bamford

    2. Dr. Ante Pavlovic

      B imo

    3. Eleven Hag
