From Scout Picks to team news, all our content and tips for Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Gameweek 16 will appear here.
Quickly following on from the midweek action, this deadline takes place on Saturday 9 December at 11:00 (GMT).
It’ll be more mayhem and quick decisions for managers, with rotation suddenly possible for names that usually avoid such minutes management.
Crystal Palace v Liverpool kicks-off proceedings on Saturday, with Aston Villa hosting Arsenal later that day. Four matches take place on Sunday, headlined by Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United.
