<h2>Future Blank and Double Gameweeks:</h2>
<p>This excellent image was shared on Twitter via @goweramg and makes it far easier to visualise how you will go about your future planning. Make sure you drop him a follow!</p>
<p>The rescheduled fixtures mean we see a minimum of 10 teams doubling in Gameweek 36, and a minimum of six doubling in Gameweek 37.</p>
<p>With so many teams doubling, it&#8217;s important to ensure that assets who have doubles aren&#8217;t simply allowed to maintain their position in the squad. Instead, we should undertake analysis and take measures to ensure the squad has the best doublers, who will return each side of the double gameweeks.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The sections below give a brief overview of which assets/teams to target, hold and avoid.</p>
<h2></h2>
<h2>Teams to target:</h2>
<h3>Leicester:</h3>
<p>The Foxes are the only team with three double gameweeks between now and the end of the season.</p>
<p>Not only that, but they also have a very good fixture run (it&#8217;s most definitely one of the best in the league) which heightens the ceiling of their assets but will also mean that more stable returns should occur.</p>
<p>It ultimately depends how willing you are to give up your places to Leicester assets.</p>
<p><strong>James Maddison (£6.8m)</strong> is by far their best asset for me. Whilst he has played the last few games in a wider position, his overall quality means he has and will still deliver attacking returns. I wrote a detailed article about him specifically a few weeks back which you can read <a href="https://fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/why-james-maddison-is-the-best-fpl-transfer-for-the-run-in-fpl-tips-2021-22/">here.</a></p>
<p><strong>Kasper Schmeichel (£4.8m)</strong> is the best defensive option, with a high ceiling, but he does block Nick Pope which I don&#8217;t like, as I think he&#8217;s the best keeper for the run in.</p>

<h3></h3>
<h3>Chelsea:</h3>
<p>Similar to the Spurs section below, I will go into this subject in greater detail in another article.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d avoid their assets until Gameweek 35 due to their fixtures and European commitments, but after that <strong>Reece James (£6.2m), Antonio Rudiger (£6.1m) </strong>and <strong>Kai Havertz (£7.9m)</strong> are all looking like good selections. My preference is the order in which they were stated.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-45283 size-large" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.47.58-1024x834.jpg" alt="reece james fpl" width="1024" height="834" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.47.58-1024x834.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.47.58-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.47.58-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.47.58-610x497.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.47.58.jpg 1058w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<h3></h3>
<h3><strong>Burnley:</strong></h3>
<p>For what feels like the millionth time this season, we come to the conundrum of what to do with Burnley assets.</p>
<p>Very simply:</p>
<p><strong>Nick Pope</strong> <strong>(£5.4m)</strong> on paper at least, is head and shoulders above every other keeper for the run in. A sea of green for their fixtures, two doubles, a very high ceiling and everything to play for. No brainer in my opinion.</p>
<p>If you need a cheap enabler, then double Burnley defence isn&#8217;t the worst option.</p>
<p>The forward options have been woeful, hence for now I think <strong>Wout Weghorst (£6.4m)</strong> still warrants a place.</p>
<h3><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-45285 size-large" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.52.48-1024x834.jpg" alt="pope fpl" width="1024" height="834" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.52.48-1024x834.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.52.48-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.52.48-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.52.48-610x497.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.52.48.jpg 1058w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></h3>
<h3></h3>
<h3>Manchester City:</h3>
<p>Again, another topic which needs further detailed explanation down the line. After Gameweek 33 they &#8220;see a sea&#8221; of green for their fixtures, and whilst challenging for the title, I imagine rotation for key players will be at a minimum.</p>
<p><strong>Joao Cancelo (£7.0m)</strong> is definitely the best option, but I really, really like <strong>Raheem Sterling (£10.5m)</strong> as a differential for the run in. I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised one bit if her outscored Salah in this period. Given Pep seems to really like playing Foden at False-9 and Sterling looks fantastic at the moment, I can see him starting most games.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-45288 size-large" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.56.14-1024x834.jpg" alt="sterling fpl" width="1024" height="834" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.56.14-1024x834.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.56.14-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.56.14-768x626.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.56.14-610x497.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-16.56.14.jpg 1058w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<h2></h2>
<h2>Teams to hold:</h2>
<h3>Arsenal and Spurs:</h3>
<p>Given the recent template, I imagine most managers have a minimum of four assets combined from these two teams.</p>
<p>The circumstance and strategy surrounding the two teams does slightly differ.</p>
<p>With Spurs, they have one less double than Arsenal, but have an excellent fixture run for the whole season. They are in very good form, especially going forward, and just leaving their assets there to inevitably pick up points across the rest of the season with no transfers will help you drastically. I&#8217;d strongly advocate a triple up of <strong>Doherty (£4.9m), Son (£10.9m) and Kane (£12.5m)</strong> ideally.</p>
<p>Their double in Gameweek 36 against Liverpool and Arsenal is a good one from an attacking perspective, and I&#8217;ll go into more detail as to why in a later article, but don&#8217;t be fooled by the colour of the box on the fixture ticker.</p>
<p>With Arsenal it&#8217;s slightly more tricky. Following the injury to <strong>Kieran Tierney (£5.1m)</strong>, their fixture list and other options at similar price points, I&#8217;d be looking to move on the defensive assets. However, one attacking asset <strong>Lacazette (£8.4m) or Saka (£6.8m) </strong>ideally would be good to have.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-45292 size-large" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-17.02.42-1024x834.jpg" alt="saka fpl" width="1024" height="834" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-17.02.42-1024x834.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-17.02.42-300x244.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-17.02.42-768x625.jpg 768w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-17.02.42-610x497.jpg 610w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-05-at-17.02.42.jpg 1056w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Teams to avoid/move assets on from:</h2>
<h3>Leeds and Wolves:</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s a very similar story for both sets of assets. They both have one blank (Gameweek 33) and double Gameweek left this season, with relatively difficult fixture runs to conclude their season. Both play Chelsea and Manchester City, alongside either Arsenal or Liverpool.</p>
<p>Given the previous template there will be a lot of teams with <strong>Raphinha (£6.5m)</strong> + 2 or 3 Wolves assets. I&#8217;d be looking to move them out sooner rather than later.</p>
<p>The Leeds and Wolves assets don&#8217;t have close to the upside, which the other assets they are blocking do.</p>
<h3>Everton:</h3>
<p>The team I would most strongly suggest avoiding. Firstly, they double in Gameweek 36/37 which is still sometime away. Before that they face Manchester Utd, Leicester, Liverpool and Chelsea. An absolutely awful fixture run.</p>
<p>A very lengthy article could be written on Everton&#8217;s problems, and there&#8217;s very little to suggest performances will improve in these four games. <strong>Anthony Gordon (£4.6m)</strong> is the only asset you could logically defend having, but only as a budget enabling fifth midfielder.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve seen arguments being presented for the inclusion of Richarlison and Dominic Calvert Lewin, to put into perspective how bad Everton have been going forward; between Gameweek 26-31 they have amassed an <a href="https://fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/opta/">xG of 2.81</a> which ranks them 20th; Norwich are 19th and have nearly double the value.</p>
