Everton come under the spotlight as we begin our team-by-team look at the four clubs with two fixtures in Double Gameweek 24.

After a flying start to the season, the Toffees have endured a mixed run of form and face-off against Fulham and Manchester City in Double Gameweek 24.

The 500,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) players who have brought Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.7m) into their teams for the double now face an anxious wait after the striker was substituted off with a hamstring injury in their FA Cup clash with Spurs.

With other assets like Richarlison (£7.8m), James Rodriguez (£7.7m) and Lucas Digne (£6.1m) receiving some attention, we are assessing Everton’s FPL credentials using Opta data.

As this article uses a significant amount of information from the Fantasy Football Scout Premium Members Area, only those with a valid subscription can access it in full.

THE FORM

Everton started the season as unlikely title contenders after a series of impressive results.

After scoring 14 goals in their first five Gameweeks, Calvert-Lewin was a fixture in nearly every team, with Rodriguez and Digne also picking up a decent following.

But injuries to key players saw the Toffees drop out of form, with Carlo Ancelotti choosing a more defensive style of play to grind out victories.

However, recent results and a return to form for Calvert-Lewin, who failed to score a single goal from Gameweek 12 to Gameweek 21, have seen a resurgence in Everton ownership.

    Start Coufal or Holding?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Got to start Coufal vs SHU over Holding vs Leeds

  2. FPL Bargain
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Anyone else looked at making a WC team to prep for DGWs and BGW 29?

    It doesn't seem hard to me now.

    1. boombaba

      Are all DGWs mapped out ? What are they

      1. FPL Bargain
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 6 hours ago

        Look at Ben Crellin's Twitter or Legomane's for the best strong estimates.

        1. boombaba
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 6 hours ago

          Got a WC draft ?

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Yup should be easy to navigate BGW29 using WC and FTs

    3. Steinburg FC
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      i activated wc about an hour ago

      1. The VAR Team
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        What was your old team?

    4. Steinburg FC
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Martinez, (McCarthy,)
      Dias, Robinson, Lowton, (Dallas, Vestergard)
      Gundogan, Bruno, Sterling C, Raphinha, (son)
      Ings, Bamford, Cavani. 5 dgw players

      Money in the bank to go Cavani to Kane and BB 25 of Martinez, Robinson vs Shef at home, Lowton vs WBA and Raphinha. 6 dgw players

      for GW 26 11 dgw players,Raphina to DGW player and bench Bamford.
      First thought is down to Jorginhio and -4 Lowton to a 5.3

      whats yours?

  3. Chilli Heatwave
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Are people going to risk keeping DCL for DGW? Tempted by richarlison to play it safe...

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      I think I would rather think ahead of GW24 and bring in Ings or Kane

  4. boombaba
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Captain Cancelo Pope or Bruno

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Cancelo.

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Cancelo

  5. Totalfootball
    • 9 Years

      Press conference tomorrow

    2. FPL Pillars
      • 9 Years

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  6. FPL Bargain
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Here is my potential WC team to prep for DGWs and BGWs.

    Anyone else doing this?

    It looks straight forward to me.

    Areola Sanchez
    Cresswell Stones Cancelo Lowton/Target Dallas
    Salah Fernandes Son Gundagon Jorginho
    Kane Watkins Bamford

    1. FPL Bargain
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      11 DGW in 26
      8 BGWeekers ready for 29 to be added to
      5 DGW 24
      2 DGW 25

      1. Steinburg FC
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        Pretty different but i have FH available

        Martinez, (McCarthy,)
        Dias, Robinson, Lowton, (Dallas, Vestergard)
        Gundogan, Bruno, Sterling C, Raphinha, (son)
        Ings, Bamford, Cavani. 5 dgw players

        for GW 26 11 dgw players,Raphina to DGW player and bench Bamford.
        First thought is down to Jorginhio and -4 Lowton to a 5.3

    2. boombaba
      • 13 Years

      Looks great but no Grealish worries me

      1. FPL Bargain
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        Salah would swap to Grelish after the double

        1. boombaba
          • 13 Years
          5 years, 5 hours ago

          You could also get rafinha for gundo for the Leeds DGW

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Yes!

      Pope Sanchez
      Tarkowski Stones Mee Dallas Targett
      Salah Bruno Son Foden Gundogan
      Kane Bamford Watkins

  7. abaalan
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Matrinez
    Stones,Digne, Coufal,Justin, Mitchell
    Salah,Sterling, Fernandes, Soucek, Raphinha
    DCL, Antonio, Watkins

    2FT, 2.1 ITB.... completely lost at what to do now with all these flags.
    Was planning Soucek + Mitchell -> Gundo + Bur def

  8. JJeyy
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Who scores more this week only? - Stones or Mee

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Stones.

    2. claretparrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Me

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Stones

  9. Gunners in Haaland
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Alonso rested and starting this week?

  10. Botman and Robben
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Have 2FT. Worth it doing Dias -> Cancelo in light of the former's illness concerns?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      No

  11. Eat my goal!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    This double GW seems like Laporte all over again!

  12. Captain_Shirokov
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    is there a consensus on what the best plan is for people with WC but no FH left?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      WC26 and have players in your team that covers 29

    2. Nuka Girl
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      I'm likely using FT's to get team for GW29 then WC out of there on GW30.

    3. BOATIES FC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      I might WC in 25 rather than 26

  13. ajk1211
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Dias owners. Keep or Sell?

    Bought in at 5.5 but seems a risk to gamble more than needed when 3 City should be key for DGW

    1. aleksaa2
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Keep

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      keeping and playing unless definitely out

    3. marcos11
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Think I’ll keep even in my wildcard, have 0.3 saved in him and won’t need til gw26

    4. ajk1211
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Thanks all

  14. boombaba
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    After GW29 is there gonna be no more major DGWs?
    What I am basically trying to work out is... keeping WC after then is pointless

    1. n-doggg
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Depends on team. If you can get through to 30 then can restructure team for run in nicely

  15. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Dias not seen in training, can't write this!

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      You just wrote it?

      1. Digital-Real
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 6 hours ago

        you must be fun at parties

        1. FPL Pillars
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 5 hours ago

          Says the “book keeper” 😉

        2. ‘Tis the Season
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 5 hours ago

          His alter ego is BOTEX & he is a bit lippy..

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      A case of the bum poos

  16. Nuka Girl
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Apologies for a basic question, but does Southampton winning cup game mean Tottenham likely to have double GW26?
    Was contemplating Son to Rashford, but maybe not with the Spurs double.
    Cheers.

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Spurs will most likely have a double in 26

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 6 hours ago

        Follow Ben Crellin on twitter

      2. Nuka Girl
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 6 hours ago

        Great. Cheers.
        Never had such a complicated decision as this GW24, 25 & 26.

  17. n-doggg
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    A lot of flags. 1FTs

    GTG or make a change? DGW*

    Areola*
    Mee*, Stones*, digne*, Taylor*
    Stering(c)*, gundo*, Bruno, Salah
    Dcl*, Antonio

    Johnstone, raphinia, bamford, Justin

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      I think it's a risk to start Taylor when he might only play 1 out of 2. I would rather start Bamford ahead of him

  18. bigdip
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Any hits to make? (0 ft and 3.8mn itb)

    Mcarthy (Forster)
    Pieter Rudiger Cancelo (Justin, Lewis)
    Salah Fernandes Gundo Son (Soucek)
    Antonio Bamford Dcl

    A) Forster to Pope for a hit
    B) Salah or Son to Sterling for hit
    C) No hit and keep team

    1. n-doggg
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 6 hours ago

      Probably get in Pope

  19. Danno - Emre Canada
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Fabio Silva looks like young Sherlock!

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      His greatest mystery is to put the football in the goal.

      1. ‘Tis the Season
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        Or find the net

      2. Danno - Emre Canada
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        HaHaHa

  20. Oggle22
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    2ft 1.6m itb
    Martinez
    Konsa Stones Cancelo
    Salah Mahrez Bruno Soucek
    Bamford DCL Antonio

    Steele Son Mitchell Holding

    Cheers

  21. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    All this uncertainty is pushing me closer to activating my WC, thought I’d planned well enough for these DGW’s!

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      The amount of last minute injuries and issues has been quite incredible. Unforeseeable really!

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        Intensity of 4 dah turnarounds.

        With Champions league and Europa league February and March will be more of the same.

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      save your wc

      1. boombaba
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        Why

  22. waltzingmatildas
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 6 hours ago

    Which moves do you prefer to prepare for gw29 with no FH.
    2fts
    A) Salah and stones to sterling and targett
    B) dcl/antonio to Watkins

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Sterling isn't playing in 29.

      Best to prepare for 24 and 25 first.

      Then tackle 26 onwards.

      1. waltzingmatildas
        • 15 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        No, that is to move some funds and get targett in.

        1. AC/DC AFC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 5 hours ago

          Makes sense but I'd say much like doubles game weeks, with blanks don't sacrifice a few weeks either side for the sake of one game week.

  23. FPL Pillars
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 5 hours ago

    Chelsea 1-0 Tammy

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Assist Reece James

      1. BENOIT
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        Decent assist?

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Nice move.

      Abraham is a fpl prospect if he had the EPL game time. Over say Werner and Giroud who is okay too.

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        He had a load . . . he failed to deliver to be fair.

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Would have been offside with VAR.

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        Isn't this the behind the ball argument again?

  24. 03farmboy
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 5 hours ago

    Which transfer to do?

    Soucek to Sterling
    Or
    DCL to Jesus

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      I like both.

      B.

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        i d keep dcl unless confirmed out for a long time. he has great dgw26 fictures (if confirmed of course)

  25. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 5 hours ago

    Oh well, bye bye Salah gw29.

    1. boombaba
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Y

  26. ivantys
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 5 hours ago

    Goal was offside but justice served with the ref robbing them a clear cut pen in the first half

  27. Captain_Shirokov
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 5 hours ago

    Likelihood of Dias, DCL and Antonio playing this weekend dependent on tomorrow's press conferences?

    Or are they ruled out already?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      wait for more news

    2. marcos11
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Have these three, read something earlier to suggest Antonio would be inline to play, Dias I fancy should play as well but nothing confirmed on either yet

    3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      Think Antonio is likely according to ex west ham employee ( think i saw that)

      DCL no chance, Dias i would be suprised if he had a fever and stomach bug and not trained. Not a lot the physio's can do

      1. seanie3
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 5 hours ago

        Antonio is likely to play or not play?

        1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 5 hours ago

          Apparently he is in line to play

  28. aborg
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 5 hours ago

    Chelsea goal

  29. Scholes Out For Summer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 5 hours ago

    How does this look for a WC draft?

    Pope
    Cancelo - Shaw - Dallas
    Sterling - Gundogan - Bruno - Rashford
    Ings - Richarlison - Bamford

    Martinez - Mitchell - Sanchez - Raphinha

    Can get Kane and one of Grealish or Watkins for 26. Changing from double City defence to double midfield is one concern

  30. waldo666
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 5 hours ago

    Unlucky Barnsley, well offside.

    1. seanie3
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 5 hours ago

      no chance
