FPL Double Gameweek 26 and Double Gameweek 27 announced as fixtures pile up for Man City

Both FPL Double Gameweek 26 and Double Gameweek 27 were announced on Friday evening, as Fantasy Premier League managers can begin planning in earnest for the month of March. Blank Gameweek 29 is also set.

Double trouble

Premier League leaders Manchester City have two double gameweeks in a row from Gameweek 26, something which Pep Guardiola kindly let FPL players know ahead of the official announcement.

A whopping 14 teams, in total, play twice in Double Gameweek 26; Man City, Man United, Liverpool, Spurs, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Leicester, Everton, Burnley, Wolves, Fulham, Sheffield United, West Brom and Crystal Palace.

The GW 26-29 fixtures have been announced

Double Gameweeks for:
14 teams in GW26
2 teams in GW27 (MCI and SOU)

AVL vs TOT moves to GW29 so neither team Blanks

2 remaining postponements:
AVL vs EVE is fairly likely to move to GW28
TOT vs SOU will most likely move to GW 32/37 pic.twitter.com/yHcER5Qx5T

• West Ham vs Arsenal
• Aston Villa vs Spurs

Blank Gameweek 29 is set after Aston Villa vs Spurs was added to the skeleton schedule

Leftovers

That leaves just Aston Villa vs Everton and Spurs vs Southampton to be rearranged, at the time of writing.

AVL vs EVE almost certainly won't move to GW32 because one of MCI/EVE will reach the FA Cup SFs so one of EVE vs TOT or AVL vs MCI will be postponed on the weekend of GW32 and moved to the midweek of GW32.

They could move AVL vs EVE to GW37 if EVE don't reach the FA Cup Final

Villa against Everton could yet end up in Gameweek 28, which begins on March 13. If that is the case, FPL players should know about it relatively soon when further TV selections are made. That game could also be put on the longlist and pushed back as far as Gameweek 37.

Here a simple version of the FPL schedule from GW26 to GW33.

If AVL vs EVE doesn't move to GW28 then it could also move to a different UCL midweek (GW 30/31/33/34) or the final free midweek, GW37. pic.twitter.com/D4GRTdTliP

Gameweeks 32 or 37 are potential slots for Tottenham against Southampton. Fantasy managers will have to wait a while longer to find out where that fixture will land but Double Gameweek 26 and Double Gameweek 27 are locked in.
