<h2>Who are the biggest minutes risks in Gameweek 33?</h2>
<p>The biggest minutes risks for Double Gameweek 33 come from Aston Villa and Arsenal who have used a lot of energy in their Champions League quarter-final ties over the last two midweeks.</p>
<p>We saw Unai Emery rotate heavily in the Premier League wins against Nottingham Forest and Southampton, with <strong>Ollie Watkins (£8.9m) </strong>and <strong>Marcus Rashford (£6.7m) </strong>likely to share minutes up top.</p>
<p>Aston Villa have the most congested schedule of any Premier League side at this time, since they play in the FA Cup semi-final immediately after this double gameweek.</p>
<p>Rotation should be less of a concern for Arsenal, although <strong>Bukayo Saka (£10.5m) </strong>has failed to start a league game since returning from injury, playing just 90 minutes across his last three fixtures.</p>
<p>We do need to be mindful of rotation for the other two sides in FA Cup semi-final action immediately after this double gameweek: Manchester City and Crystal Palace.</p>
<p>Crystal Palace play their second double in successive gameweeks, with <strong>Jean-Philippe Mateta (£7.8m) </strong>playing just 100 minutes across the two fixtures. However, many will look to just stick to the same triple from last time out.</p>
<p>At Manchester City, plenty of managers will be looking to play the minutes game with <strong>Kevin De Bruyne (£9.3m). </strong>I personally feel that it's a risk worth taking, given he's played 176 minutes across his last two games.</p>

<h2>Is Bukayo Saka the best Arsenal attacker?</h2>
<p>When fully fit, <strong>Bukayo Saka (£10.5m)</strong> is the best Arsenal attacker by some margin, with 17 goal involvements from 16 starts this season. I wouldn't view <strong>Gabriel Martinelli (£6.5m) </strong>or <strong>Mikel Merino (£6.1m) </strong>as comparable alternatives.</p>
