What the FA Cup fifth round ties will mean for the Blank and Double Gameweeks

The postponed fixtures in Blank Gameweek 29 will be known after the completion of this week’s FA Cup fifth-round matches, which get underway on Tuesday evening.

The quarter-finals of English football’s showpiece cup competition clash with a set of Premier League fixtures on the weekend of March 20/21 and, with an international break following immediately afterwards, there is no chance of the postponed league games moving to the subsequent midweek.

Some of these matches will likely be shifted to the as-yet-unannounced but widely expected Double Gameweek 26, leaving Fantasy Premier League managers with little time to make adjustments.

BLANK GAMEWEEK 29

Only Fulham v Leeds United is so far guaranteed to go ahead in Blank Gameweek 29, with one – but not both – of West Ham United v Arsenal or Crystal Palace v Manchester United also assured of taking place.

We could get anywhere between two and seven of the pre-scheduled fixtures going ahead, depending on the midweek results.



GW29 Premier League fixtureA blank will happen if the following happens in the FA Cup fifth round:
Brighton v NewcastleBrighton beat Leicester
Burnley v LeicesterBurnley beat Bournemouth AND/OR Leicester beat Brighton
Crystal Palace v Man UtdMan Utd beat West Ham
Liverpool v ChelseaChelsea beat Barnsley
Man City v WolvesMan City beat Swansea AND/OR Wolves beat Southampton
Sheffield Utd v Aston VillaSheffield Utd beat Bristol City
Spurs v SouthamptonSpurs beat Everton AND/OR Southampton beat Wolves
West Brom v EvertonEverton beat Spurs
West Ham v ArsenalWest Ham beat Man Utd


The unlikely scenario of only three blanks in Gameweek 29 will occur if Bournemouth, Swansea, Bristol City, Barnsley, Spurs and Southampton all win.

For those rooting for maximum carnage in Gameweek 29, victories for Brighton, Burnley, Chelsea, Manchester City, Sheffield United, Southampton and Everton would ensure seven blanks.

There is, confusingly, the distant prospect of a game being added to Blank Gameweek 29.

Should Spurs be eliminated from the FA Cup in midweek and Sheffield United and Southampton progress, for example, then the Gameweek 18 meeting between the Lilywhites and Aston Villa could be accommodated.

We’re into the realms of serious guesswork now, of course, but the picture should be coming a lot clearer by the week’s end.

    City V Spurs prediction I can actually see city destroying spurs 3 or 4-0

    1. JONALDINHO
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Spurs will sit back with Son to hit them on the counter. I’ll go 2-1 City

    2. R.C
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Spurs 2-1 City

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      2-0

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

      Spurs aren’t Liverpool

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Quick Alison transfer to add three goals to the tally?

    5. drughi
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      2-0

    6. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      1 or 2-0. Jose will park the bus, City will score and start walking around.

    7. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      This has a Mourinho 1-0 bus special on it.

    8. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Could see a 4-2 City

      Son & Kane for spurs

  2. iL PiStOlErO
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Thinking of doing Romeu to Raphinha to prepare for next dgw and save other ft but have quetions:

    1) Would you play Coufal insted of Dallas?
    2) Who to cpt or even TC?
    3) Would you maybe sell Justin for Digne and BB?

    Pope
    Cancelo Dallas Lowton
    Sterling Salah Bruno Gundo
    Antonio Bamford DCL

    McCarthy Coufal Justin Romeu

    2ft, 2m itb

    Cheers to all.

    1. Tcheco
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Just Raphinha. You’ll need those 2 FT in 26 by the looks of things

      1. Tcheco
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        In case of doubles

  3. Rowsdower
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    No clue what to do

    Pick 3 to play:

    Son
    Soucek
    Watkins
    Dallas
    Wan bissaka
    Coufal

    1. Tcheco
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      AWB Coufal Watkins

      1. Rowsdower
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        You'd bench son, then? He's the one I'm really worried about.

        1. Baron Penguin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I'd probably agree with Tcheco. My issue is playing three of Cresswell, Soucek, Antonio, Watkins, Grealish and Raphinha!

  4. youzef
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Pope
    Cancelo Creswell Dias Shaw
    Salah Fernandes Soucek
    Watkins Antonio DCL
    Bench: McCarthy Barnes Zaha Mitchell

    Shall I do remove Zaha and get in foden for the DGW (-4) and play him instead of soucek?? Or keep team as it is
    Thanks

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'm not sure about that for a - 4. Foden could possibly only play one match

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

      Can you not afford Gundo? Foden is a lottery.

  5. Garth Marenghi
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I think City can run it up versus Everton, possibly versus spurs too, but I think more like 1-0 2-0. Jose will park the bus and hope.

    1. Garth Marenghi
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      nice one

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      City seem to be playing not to expend much energy on the whole ; if you watch the last few games the Liverpool match was much higher tempo for a good reason ; otherwise they go 1-0 up and start walking it. I'm really not expecting City to do much beyond 1-0 ; 2-0 wins.

  6. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Sterling (TC)?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      big no for me

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nah, two decent opponents, might get rested in one.

    3. Gross Blank Point
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Go for it. If it works then you'll be killing it.
      Might not work though, but that's the game

  7. waltzingmatildas
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Gw25, what do you reckon to son and Antonio to raphina and Kane?

    1. R.C
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

  8. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    If Burnley lose to Bournemouth does that mean no double?

    1. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No. Leicester may beat Brighton and then the game is a double.

  9. SNEAKY SNEAKY
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Tough bench to do this week!! Need help

    Pope
    Shaw, Cancelo, Stones,
    Bruno, Gundo, Grealish, Son, Salah
    DCL (C), Bamford,
    (Martinez, Coufal, Watkins, Chilwell)

    1 FT but might hold for 25.
    Q- Who to p-play of Coufal, Watkins, Bamford or Son?

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Bamford for me

  10. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Evening People, Who do I bench....

    A, Grealish (A) Brighton
    B, Bamford (A) Arse.

    I am already benching both Son and Dallas.

    1. drughi
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      its tough have the same and playing both

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      b

  11. MoSalad
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Hold FT or chase the DGW?

    Areola
    Stones, Cancelo, Cressy, Coufal, AWB
    Salah, (G)undo, Penandes
    BobbyDR, Antonio

    Johnstone, Son, BamBam, Barnes

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Who would you lose?

      1. MoSalad
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Barnes for sure. But he can become Raphina next GW & I’ll do Coufal to Dallas. Bit more stuck this GW.

        1. waltzingmatildas
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Guess it depends on when you plan to wc?

          1. MoSalad
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Used it already ops

            1. waltzingmatildas
              • 13 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              I'd probably hold them. Tempting but team looks good long term

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Stones and Salah

      To Sterling and defender

      1. MoSalad
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I can do Stones to Tark & Son to Sterling I had considered it. Just never know on city rotation.

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I'm doing similar but keeping Son for the fixtures. So doing the above with Saka and Stones out.

          Sterling and Tarkowski incoming and Captain.

          Planning on Soucek to Raphinha in gw26 but one week at a time.

          1. AC/DC AFC
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Sorry... Gw25. Would be too late by 26!

  12. Sir Edo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Team to play West Ham: Henderson, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Telles, Matic, Fred, Van De Beek, Greenwood, Martial, Rashford.

    1. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      West Ham rocking a 4-6-0 formation

      1. Sir Edo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yes..

        Team to play Manchester United: Fabianski, Dawson, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Coufal, Rice, Soucek, Noble, Fornals, Bowen, Yarmolenko.

        1. mezza
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Soucek will score and then blank against Sheffield Utd

      2. Sir Edo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        We can expect a West Ham single GW26..

      3. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        4-2-3-1

        Helps with Antonio in the league game now.

  13. rangerdad
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    1 FT left - is it worth switching Cancelo or Stones to Sterling or Foden ?

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Either could be benched one game. Stones is likely the only one nailed for both.

  14. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Solkjaer makes me wanna captain Bruno.
    Without Pogba
    Rested
    Vs WBA(A)
    At least 4 goals for ManU in this game.
    Bruno 3 attacking returns for sure

    1. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      West Brom will win.

      There I said it.

      1. Drexl Spivey
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Typed it.

          Posted it

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      WBA will park the bus, not a great tactic for United to exploit.

      1. drughi
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        they dont have a bus

  15. Aster
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Does Cavani start?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      no

      1. The Ilfordian
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Does Martial starting mean subs bench at the weekend (or he’s first choice for a tough match against West Ham)

        1. The Train Driver
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Cavani obviously first choice now, the lazy arrogant Frenchie lost his place!

          1. The Ilfordian
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Yes that was my assumption. Shame as West Brom was a prime fixture. Time for a transfer.

            1. The Train Driver
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              However with Pogba out Martial may start on the wing. Especially if he performs tonight.

              1. The Ilfordian
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 6 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                Thanks. I’ve got 2 FTs and then WC so will make a decision whether to leave him where he is. I missed his 13 points on the bench so been a frustrating experience

  16. The Final Boss
    • 6 Years

    Antonio not in the squad??? Injury??

    1. R.C
      • 6 Years

      Rest

    As a WC, FH and BB owner, do I want Burnley to lose?

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Depends on Brighton I believe.

    2. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years

      No, you want Burnley and Brighton to win for the max carnage

    Would you sell Son to get Rashford just for this GW?

      Yep

    2. Bushwhacker

  21. George James
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Considering the below move

    Stones + Son >> Lowton + Sterling -4

    Own cancelo and gundogan. Yes or no?

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      More chance of Stones starting two than Sterling IMHO

    2. ajk1211
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Thinking along similar lines (see below) but Mee instead of Lowton

  22. ajk1211

    Feedback on the below appreciated. 2FTS and 3.2m itb

    Pope (Martinez)
    Stones Dias Coufal Cresswell Dallas
    Gundo Salah Bruno Son (Bissouma)
    Antonio Bamford DCL

    Thinking Son/Stones -> Sterling/Mee

  23. TKC07

    Is Antonio given full rest? Any news why he's not even in squad?

      fat. igue.

    2. R.C

      Not fit

  24. Ange Ball
    • 9 Years

    What's this about Ederson taking over Penalty duty from Gun.

    1. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Pep humour I think

    2. R.C
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Pep Roulette on Pens

    3. Garth Marenghi
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      The fact that pep is joking about it makes me think it's still Gundogan.

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah I’d say Gundo gets the next one but if he misses that then maybe they change again

        KDB missed vs Pool in November but still took (and scored) the next one vs Fulham

  25. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Soucek in auxiliary striker alert?

    ——-Rice, Noble——
    Yarm, Fornals, Bowen
    ——-!SOUCEK!——-

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years

        Moyes has done similar before with both Fellaini & Tim Cahill...

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Nah, Yarmo upfront?

  26. diesel001
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Burnley and Brighton wins are required to max out the GW29 blanks. Burnley already ruining that.

    1. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Let them both ruin it. I have no FH.

  27. Fudgy
    • 4 Years

      'Injured'

      More like saved for the PL.

      1. Fudgy
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        He isn't even in the squad

          Of course. Would you waste your best asset in a cup that doesn't come with much financial reward and where the odds on you winning are low?

          Basic playing the probabilities by Moyes. Give Antonio a proper night off.

      fat. igue. Moyes was very upfront about it.

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

      Just rested surely? Moyes was saying he was tired

    4. TheDragon
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No... he is just fatigued isnt he?

    6. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Rested, fatigued.

      Saved.

    7. R.C
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Not fit

    8. Fudgy
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He'd be in the squad if he was fatigued. He's injured clearly

              Get a room is the best solution.

    9. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years

      He’s just resting

      (Resting a big torn hamstring)

    What is the case with gw26

    Possible teams with double ?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Too many combos to speculate just now.

      Wait a few days.

    Considering Son is Son and AWB and Coufal have nice fixtures would you take a -4 for these 3 moves to get 8 dgwers and the team below?
    I will WC next week so don’t mind punting on triple Bur defence and James Rod

    Son AWB and Coufal
    To
    James Rod Tarkowski and Mee
    To give

    Pope

    Cancelo Dias Tarkowski Mee

    Salah Sterling(C) Bruno Soucek JamesRod

    DCL

    Forster Watkins Brewster Bernardo

    1. Hy liverpool

      3 years, 2 months ago

      AWB and coufal have nice fixtures not worth it imo. Specially AWB.
      Only one of lowton/Mee and another punt for free is enough for me.

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

        Seems like a happy medium and no hit is good.
        Mee seems the best if only getting one to go with Pope?
        Also I think benching Watkins ahead of Soucek is ok - agree?

        1. Hy liverpool
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Yep Mee/Tarkowski gor attacking threat.
          This is tough may ne watkins or even punt on ashley barnes if you that punty

        And thanks I booked that room I think it could get weird 🙂

    2. Baron Penguin

      I'd just double up on Burnley defence and save an FT.

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

        Thanks I want to use both FT as I will WC next week.
        So Mee in and a punt - probably James and no hit should be good.

    Triple City, double Everton, double Burnley and Bruno leaves me three from six to choose from. No BB and no idea what to do!?!?!?!?

    Play three of these:

    1. Watkins
    2. Grealish
    3. Cresswell
    4. Soucek
    5. Antonio
    6. Raphinha

    1. TheDragon
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      3 & 5 definitely

      Then it’s pretty tough

        It's my own fault. Although with the plethora of games and injuries and covid it's a good idea to have a strong bench, or at least that was my thinking. Also have 9.4 ITB! My bus team has 3 and 5 on the bench! Hope your season is going better than mine.
