FPL notes: Spurs' centre-halves + Wilson keep up fine goal records

From Scout Picks to team news, all our content and tips for Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Gameweek 31 will appear here.

It’s our first Blank Gameweek of 2025/26!

Arsenal and Wolverhampton Wanderers will definitely blank, while it’s likely that Manchester City and Crystal Palace will, too.

It’s set to be a big week for transfers, Free Hits and maybe even points hits, then, as FPL managers scrabble around to get 11 players out.

Don’t forget the early deadline on Friday 20 March at 18:30 GMT.

For all your transfer dilemmas, chip-related conundrums and captaincy quandaries, make sure to keep checking back here for the latest content.
