Double Gameweek 22 confirmed for eight teams

Share

The revised fixture list for Double Gameweek 22 was announced by the Premier League on Thursday morning, with eight top-flight sides playing twice.

Brentford, Brighton and Hove Albion, Burnley, Chelsea, Leicester City, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Watford are the clubs who have two fixtures in the upcoming Gameweek.

There is a caveat: this proposed schedule is subject to change should any FA Cup third-round matches involving these teams or their second Double Gameweek 22 opponents be postponed this weekend. In the event of that happening, the outstanding cup ties would be played in this free midweek instead.

GAMEWEEK 22 DOUBLES

  • Brentford: Liverpool (a), Man Utd (h)
  • Brighton: Crystal Palace (h), Chelsea (h)
  • Burnley: Leicester (h), Watford (h)
  • Chelsea: Manchester City (a), Brighton (a)
  • Leicester: Burnley (a), Spurs (h)
  • Man Utd: Aston Villa (a), Brentford (a)
  • Spurs: Arsenal (h), Leicester (a)
  • Watford: Newcastle (a), Burnley (a)

There is a real mixed bag of ‘doubles’ here, with Brentford’s two games unappealing and Chelsea and Spurs having far from straightforward tests.

The best pairings are arguably those of Watford and Burnley, although which players from these two clubs beyond Emmanuel Dennis (£6.1m) and/or Joshua King (£5.8m) represent attractive targets is another question.

Liverpool, West Ham United and even Everton, whose players some of us would have loaded up on ahead of Double Gameweek 21, have very decent ‘single’ Gameweeks, meanwhile, so as ever a balancing act would seem to be the way to go.

DATES AND TIMES OF THE ADDITIONAL FIXTURES

Tuesday 18 January

19:30 Burnley v Watford
20:00 Brighton v Chelsea

Wednesday 19 January

19:30 Leicester v Spurs
20:00 Brentford v Man Utd

    Anyone else looking at that lineup and thinking it's probably not worth a chip? I already have Son, Alonso, DDG and Dennis who will double, and will probably get Maddison with my free. No standout TC options, and don't want to fill my bench with Brighton & Burnley crap for the sake of a BB.

    Outside of that, I don't see anyone I'd really want to drop any of my West Ham or Pool players for before their good SGW fixture.

    Somehow I still have Toney in my team (I know) and with his doubles its become harder to get him out. That being said, what would be your priority here:

    1. Toney --> Ronaldo for free (Bench Sissoko)
    2. Sissoko --> Maddison for free (Bench Toney)

    Bench is currently.. Ramsdale, Coufal, Gray, then Sissoko/Toney.

    Doubles are always tempting, but would you ditch Jota/TAA Vs Brentford? Antonio/Bowen vs Leeds? Even Everton should score well against Norwich.

    Thinking about free hitting but outside of Spurs and United (neither of whom are exactly firing on all cylinders) there aren't many stand out options who are likely to outscore those with a plum SGW.

    The second WC will be the most difficult chip to use imo.

    Ideally you would use it in a DGW but if there’s only 2/3 games in each DGW then it doesn’t make sense to WC in players you don’t want going forward

      Looks good to me. Although I'd prefer Maddison and Tielemans over Lookman

    Outbreak at City, Chelsea are collecting a starting XI of injuries, absolutely no reason to think that all scheduled fixtures go ahead.
    FH is maybe where I go if I use a chip. -8 & BB another possible line. But not really going to examine this in any detail until after the weekend.

    B) Worth keeping pinnock even tho he plays Liverpool and Man utd?

    C) Cash to Lowton?

    D) Wolves defender still worth it even tho they don’t have DGW?
