Blanks and double gameweeks are starting to take shape in Fantasy Premier League as we aproach Gameweek 24. Let’s look at our tips, best captain, best picks, transfer targets, differentials, captain and our, odds, team selection for GW24.
Let’s start with our FPL GW24 Tips.
1. Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 24 Tips
- There is a double gameweek in the GW25, so do make your moves considering GW25 (4 teams – Brentford, Man. City, Liverpool and Luton will play twice)
- However, there is a straight blank gameweek in GW26 (Spurs, Chelsea, Liverpool, Luton currently do not have a fixture in gameweek 26)
- Blank in GW29 will be determined after GW26 where the FA Cup 5th round is scheduled to.
- If you want to sell Watkins (for example for Haaland), we think, now is the time. We like to sell players rather after they deliver points (in this case huge haul), than after a series of blanks. It’s a similar concept to selling stocks after they rise in price, rather than after they drop in price
- Doughty is our number one transfer target for GW24
Injury & team news
- Areola was subbed off as a precaution in GW23
- Gordon was seen with crutches and wearing a protective boot after the match in GW23, as it looks like he twisted his ankle during the game. The extent of the injury is not yet known, so wait for more injury news.
- Korea Republic was eliminated from Asian Cup, so Son and Hwang will be back soon. Potentially in GW24 – depending on when they travel and what their fitness is. (If they are not ready for GW24 yet, they should definitely be ready for GW25)
