Scout Picks

FPL Double Gameweek 22 Scout Picks features double-ups from four clubs

We have chosen our best Fantasy Premier League (FPL) players for Double Gameweek 22 ahead of today’s 18:30 GMT deadline.

We line up in a 4-3-3 formation and, as ever, are limited to an £83.0m budget for our starting XI.

Our four substitutes, meanwhile, are always chosen from the budget crop of players.

We write this on Friday afternoon after the announcement that Burnley v Leicester City was postponed but before any other fixture news (the north London derby could be at risk, for example), so as ever, it’s worth keeping eyes and ears on any late developments as a ‘double’ could become a ‘single’ in a short space of time.

GOALKEEPER

The best FPL goalkeepers for a Double Gameweek 22 Free Hit

Despite several underwhelming performances from Manchester United in recent weeks, David de Gea (£5.2m) has continued to impress. Since Ralf Rangnick’s arrival in Gameweek 15, the Spaniard is averaging 5.2 points per match, whilst his +3.10 expected goals (xG) prevented total is better than any other keeper. Notably, his 87.5% save percentage is only trumped by Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Jose Sa (£5.2m), with his seven saves against Newcastle United a prime example of just how crucial he is to the Red Devils. Across the season, just four clean sheets in 19 appearances isn’t anything to shout about, but a Double Gameweek involving trips to Aston Villa and Brentford does give de Gea every chance to add to that tally.

    What is the safest set of DGW fixtures to pick a captain from do you think?

    1. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Man Utd

    2. Kodap
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'd say a United player or Brighton tbh

    3. Patron
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Kane I would say

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

        That would be incorrect

      2. Patron
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Oh just saw some risk of game cancellation.

    Red arrow down to 58k OR last week. Think I've decided against the FH and will take -4/-8

    DDG*
    TAA - Rudiger* - Cancelo

    Toney* - Antonio - Dennis*

    Foster* - James* - Son* - Livra

    A) Son + James > Bruno + Reg/Royal/Cucu (-4)
    B) Son + James + Antonio > Kane/Ronaldo + 7.7 mid (Mount) + 5.0 def (royal) or a combo of a defender and midfielder

      • 7 Years

  10. RAFA THE GAFFA

        You got any late dilemmas?

  11. KingPulis
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    After hours of working this out, I’ve decided to go without Kane and Ronaldo and just make 1ft

    A) Salah > Bruno (C)
    B) Salah > KDB (with good fixtures to come) and C Jota this week

    1. jonnybhoy
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. JohnnyRev7
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      A) Because that's what I'm doing.

  12. Twisted Melon
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    1) get Kane and start one of Coufal/Gallagher
    2) get Maddy and start Antonio

  13. Gabriel Agbonlahor
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Good to go?

    DDG
    Sanchez Alonso Rudiger (Johnson) (Tsimikas)
    Moura Mount Trossard Bruno (Bowen)
    Ronaldo(C) Kane Dennis

  14. Milk, 1 Šuker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Start Raph or Gray? RMT tool says start Raph but I like Gray v NOR

    1. FPL failure
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah I prefer Gray too

  15. El Presidente
    • 4 Years

    Let's go!!!

    Has this site got covid?

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

      It's busy.

  17. Calculated Risks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    A) Just Son to Bruno for free?
    B) Or do Son and Bruno with ESR to Trossard/Macallister for minus 4 and bench Watkins?

    Have 4 doublers with Bruno, 5 with the hit

    1. FPL Polarbear
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. JohnnyRev7
      • 13 Years

      A

  18. Tmel
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    1) Salah > Bruno
    2) Foden > Mount
    3) Salah and Antonio > Mount and Ronaldo(c) (-4)

  19. Return of the FF
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Am I mad to not be even remotely considering bringing Ronaldo in for a hit? Strikers are Antonio, Watkins and Dennis, and I'm reluctant to lose any of them

    1. jonnybhoy
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Would get rid of Antonio

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

      Easy Antonio sell. You need a captain this week.

      1. Return of the FF
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks guys. Genuine question about Antonio (I have Bowen), why sell into a decent fixture list? Purely form or just a way into CR7 DGW?

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

    Is it time to do son & Benteke to mount & ronaldo(c)? Thanks

  21. NotsoSpursy
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Antonio -> Kane -4 ?

  22. jai1212
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    If I don't own Dennis, then do I?

    A. Watkins/Antonio >> Dennis
    Or
    B. Mitchell >> Lamptey

    Both will be for a -4

  23. GRIMANDI [formerly boring M…
    • 12 Years

    Any rumours on the city covid cases?

  24. tristanabc
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Thoughts on this FH team?
    Trying to stick to most like DGW teams.

    DeGea (Bachmann)
    TAA Rudi Alonso (Lamptey, Regu)
    Bruno Mount Trossard Jota (Moder)
    Ronny Dennis King

    1. Twisted Melon
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Watford might be single game

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Is there any news about when the Burnley tests came through?

  25. Moose™
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Hi all,

    Any early thoughts?

    Sanchez (Ramsdale)

    TAA Cancelo Dawson (White Livra*)

    Salah* Son* Jota Bowen (Brownhill)

    Antonio Watkins Dennis

    1 FT & 1.4 ITB

    Salah and Son to Bruno and?

  26. Mane Mane Mane
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Foster or Fabianski

  27. Tinfoil Deathstar
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Help a brother out. Team is in disarray here. * denotes injury and ** denotes at threat of postponement. I have no playing bench and two of my MF options are now at risk of not playing so could easily be down to 9 players. A hit seems necessary just to protect against that.

    Sanchez
    Trent - Cancelo - Dawson
    Jota - Bowen - Saka** - Martinelli**
    King - Antonio - Ronaldo (c)

    Subs: Gunn; Son*, Dier*, Livramento*.

    A) Saka + Son -> Bruno + Trossard (-4)
    B) Saka + Son -> Bruno + Foden (-4)
    C) Saka + Son -> Bruno + Mount (-4)
    D) Something else

  28. Bruno Commando
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Broja to Dennis for a -4?

    Not sure if Burnley vs Watford will go through though..

  29. Mattdrid
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Cancelo vs Dennis, who scores more points?

    1. George James
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Probably go for one of the top scoring forwards in a double game week mate
