Fixtures

Double Gameweek 22 confirmed for eight teams

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

    Current team (got both FH intact) DGW players in Caps
    0,1m in bank and 1 FT

    DE GEA
    Cancelo Trent REGUILON (Livramento BJohnson)
    SON Jota Bernardo Foden Bowen
    Antonio RONALDO (Gelhardt)

    Would you:

    A. FH
    B. Bernardo to Maddison
    C. B plus something else for a hit

    Thanks.

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      B

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

      B or C, C if Maddison is considered good choice for DGW and beyond

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

      B

    4. OD
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      With one free hit and blank gameweeks to come, I wouldn't free hit.

      I really like the Leicester mids for this gameweek so I would go for B

      I would also try and find the cash to upgrade Joe Gelhardt to a watford striker.

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

    Ship one out for a DGW player:
    A. Foden
    B. Bernardo

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      B

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

      Easy B

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

      Probably Bernardo? I got rid of Foden last week.

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

    On the fence re free hit (all chips intact). What do you prefer:

    A) 5 DGW + TAA, Jota, DCL, Antonio, Coufal (all good fixtures) and either Raph or Dewsberry-Hall (-4) (No CR7 or Watford coverage)

    B) FH and go with the template

  5. Bleh
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Watkins, Antonio > Dennis, Kane (-4) worth it? Would give me 6/11 DGW’ers.

    DDG*
    TAA, Cancelo, Dier*
    Son*, Jota, Bowen, Gray
    Ronaldo*, Kane*, Dennis*

    1. Rog.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Looks like a good move, Antonio could haul though

  6. Ze_Austin
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    The best chip to use in this short period (GWs 21 and 22) might turn out to be WC only

    Pre-GW21 template had lotsa Chelsea and Arsenal with Salah. Those can go now, with 2+ blank GWs confirmed in the near future

    WC can get some teams with good fixture runs *and* pending doubles, as DGWs will come in a drip feed over the next few GWs, wrapped around Europe midweeks (UEFA has given permission)

    Try not to hyperfocus on one DGW. It's DGW *season*, not the usual "2 big DGWs"

    The biggest one should be DGW36, but that's in the far future

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Or no chip, if you're already set

    2. Fish up a tree
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      May be a dumb question but why is DGW36 predicted to be so big?

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

      I disagree the WC is a waste at this time

  7. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    DDG*
    TAA Cancelo Dier*
    Son* Jota Bowen Gray
    Ronaldo* Antonio Broja

    (Gunn Keane Foden Livra)

    A) Broja ➡️ King/Dennis (No BB)

    Use BB Gunn, Broja & Livra ➡️ out for -8
    B) Bachmann, King & Emerson
    C) Sanchez, King & Davies
    D) Bachmann, Dennis & Davies

    Thoughts?

  8. ShaunGoater123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Cant see the FH being worth it in this double and might even roll the transfer. Lineup would be as follows, thoughts?

    DDG
    Dalot / Royal / TAA / cancelo
    Jota / Son / Bowen / de bruyne
    Ronaldo / Toney

    Bachman / Broja / Ramsey / Williams

    1FT, 0.0ITB

    1. Sterling Archer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Yes you are unlucky/lucky to have 3 united players!

      1. ShaunGoater123
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Definitely! Cant see Dalot playing both, again probably a blessing

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

    Trossard or lookman ? Can't afford more than 6.2. cheers

  10. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Have 4DGWers currently, think I'll just take a hit to field 6 + TAA, Bowen, DCL, Cash, and Cancelo, sound OK?

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

      Yep

  11. Smokey_Lowkey
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Which move to prioritise for FT this week:

    A) Mbeumo - > Maddison (bench Gray)
    B) Livra - > Royal/Lamptey (bench Cancelo

  12. Krafty Werks
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Is this ok for a -4 to avoid using free hit? Only 5 x doublers whereas free hit would have 10!! Which do you prefer? A or B? Thanks :

    A) No free hit :

    Pickford
    TAA / Cancelo / *Reguilon
    *Son / Foden / Bowen / Gray
    *Kane / *Ronaldo / *King

    Gunnarsson, Gordon, Johnson, Tierney

    B) free hit team with 10 x doubling starters :

    *De Gea
    TAA / *Cucurella / *Dalot
    *Son / *Mount / *Maddison / *Lookman
    *Kane / *Ronaldo / *Dennis

    Foster, *Trossard / *Lowton / Tsimikas

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

      A after a hit ?

      1. Krafty Werks
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Yes a -4 only but only 5 x doublers in comparison to B's 10 (and 2 x doublers as decent bench cover too!!)

  13. T.Henry14
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    DDG
    TAA, Cancelo, Coufal
    Son, Jota, Bowen, Gray
    Ronaldo, Antonio, Dennis

    (FosterX, Cash, D.Luiz, White)

    1FT - 4.3 ITB

    Save transfer here??

  14. TeddiPonza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Which move is best:

    A. Bernardo to Maddison, play Foden
    B. Bernardo to Trossard, play Foden
    C. Bernardo to Trossard and Gelhardt to King for -4, bench Foden.

    Thanks.

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

      C with Maddison?

      1. TeddiPonza
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Can´t afford

  15. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Any chance the number of DGW22 fixtures could be increased or is that it?

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I believe that's it. They could have announced more fixtures had they planned to have them imo.

  16. Jimmy Boy
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Would you bench boost this? Can get to it with a -8 and has seven dgwers. Not expecting Dalot to play both of his fixtures but if he plays at least one I think this is one of the few times this season I'll hopefully have a playing fifteen.

    Ederson
    Robertson - Cancelo - Bavies*
    Son* - Jota - Foden - Gallagher
    Ronaldo* - Dennis* - King*

    Kepa - Saka - Tomiyasu - Dalot*

    1. Jimmy Boy
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'll probably wildcard when Salah comes back from AFCON so not too bothered about messing with my team structure.

  17. Krafty Werks
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    If you have worked out that your prospective Free Hit team (which has twice as many doublers) is likely going to be worth approx 20 points more than your regular side without? Then would you Free hit or save the chip? Thoughts?

  18. TeddiPonza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Better 2 week punt before Salah comes back:

    Trossard (CRY CHE lei)
    Maddison (bur TOT BRI)

    Thanks

    1. Krafty Werks

    2. Camzy

      Maddison.

      Mad

  19. akhilrajau

    De gea, Bachmann
    TAA, Cash, Cancelo, White, Davies
    Jota, Son, Bowen, Maddison, Douglas Luiz
    Antonio, CR7, King
    Bank: 1.7m, FT: 1

    Any suggestions to include 2 double game players (-4 hit). Thinking dennis + any def . Please suggest

  20. Eat my goal!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Don't feel the need to FH but with 2 in my pocket, WC & BB when?

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Depends on your current team. WC probably good idea, but not certain whether to BB week after that.

  21. Baps hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I had planned to BB, but I have second thoughts now. No dgw:s for Avl or Eve. I would have to use my ft to sell Cash and I doubt it's worth it. Looks like a save with this bench?

    gk Sanchez vs CP + Che
    Cancelo vc Che
    Gray vs Nor
    Cash vs MU

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      BB would mean Cash to Cucurella / Lamptey, but I doubt it's sound long term transfer.

  22. mikess
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Tielemans with pens could a nice punt for someone shopping around that budget

    1. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Yeh agree good shout although I can afford Maddy

  23. Willmissudimitrypayet
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Who to sell to get Maddison?

    Martinelli, Gray, Bowen or Jota?

    1. sulldaddy
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Martinelli for sure

    2. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Mart

  24. Pompey5
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo Davies
    Son Mount Silva Jota Bowen
    Antonio King

    Foster Livramento Coufal Watkins

    1FT 3.5 ITB (to bring back Salah after ACON)

    A. Silva to Madison
    B. FH (still have both left
    C. Other

  25. W.Cogitations
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Which one should I play in GW22 out of Tierney (TOT), Martinelli (TOT), Davies (ARS, LEI)?

    1. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Davies as could get an assist even if no cleansheets

  26. OD
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    My team looks like this (I am 21k in the world):

    Sa (Carson)

    Rudiger TAA Mitchell Cash (Cancelo)

    Bowen Jota Saka (Bernardo, J.Ramsey)

    Ronaldo (C) Antonio Calvert-Lewin

    With 1.3m in the bank and one free transfer, I am looking to turn Carson into DDG.

    Which of the following moves should I do for a hit:

    A. Mitchell to Lamptey
    B. Antonio to King
