If you’re in a hurry and need some last-minute Fantasy Premier League (FPL) advice, here’s a quick summary of what you need to know about Double Gameweek 26.
WHEN IS THE FPL GAMEWEEK 26 DEADLINE?
There is hardly any time to catch your breath from the weekend as FPL has a very fast turnaround time. All transfers and team selections must be made no later than this 6:00 PM GMT on Tuesday, February 10.
ARSENAL + WOLVES PLAY TWICE
Due to March’s EFL Cup final, the Molineux League match between Arsenal and Wolverhampton Wanderers has been rescheduled, meaning both teams will play twice in this Double Gameweek.
Going all-in on the top-flight Gunners doesn’t need much explanation. Many are simply wondering whether they should triple their defense or invest in offense.
Revived by being one of two managers of ‘The Great and the Good’ Cole Palmer‘s (£10.5m) hat-trick is considering Lateriser to take either Kai Havertz (£7.3m) route or securing a third defensive name.
Viktor Gyokeres (£8.8m) scored twice past Sunderland and has high chances for another attack. Moreover, there is an all-rounder Declan Rice (£7.5m). Despite a run of five games without goals or assists, Zophar’s Q&A backs up the England international’s creativity stats.
In the meantime, are there any Wolves players worth owning? With three such individuals on our Goals At Hand table, let’s not overlook them.
USE TRIPLE CAPTAIN ON GABRIEL?
Gameweek 25’s competitive captaincy race was exciting. Because the VAR disallowed and showed a third goal from Manchester City Dominik Szoboszlai (£6.7 million) a red card, Erling Haaland (£14.9m) picked up enough bonus points to marginally surpass Bruno Fernandes (£9.8 million).
This time, Arsenal’s notoriously mean backline has kept four clean sheets in five games, leaving a goal looming Gabriel Magalhaes ( £7.1 million ) the recommended bracelet recipient from both Captain Sensible and our Rate My Team (RMT) algorithm.
Not only that, he’s a real option to activate this season’s Triple Captain chip, even if it’s rare to see a defender get this kind of FPL support.
After later assessing the pros and cons and the lack of possible alternatives, Zophar decided to make the Brazilian Triple Captain.
Of course, some managers will prefer to use a Wildcard this week, or Bench Boost like FPL General.
FPL GAMEWEEK 26 TEAM REVEALS
SCOUT CHOICES + DIFFERENTIAL
Our weekly selection – which is essentially a Free Hit except for the name – is understandably heavy on Arsenal and Wolves.
There are also expectations for Crystal Palace’s hosting of Burnley, a match that could make it Jorgen Strand Larsen (£6.1m) one of the best differential points of the week.
PREDICTED LINEUPS
We have predicted the starting XIs of all twenty Premier League teams.
Whatever you decide to do, good luck with FPL Gameweek 26!
