Fantasy Premier League Double Gameweek 28 – Best Players, Fixtures and More
1437

As we approach Double Gameweek 28, Fantasy Premier League managers are faced with the enticing prospect of fielding players with two fixtures.

However, the decision to bring in double gameweek players comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities. Here's an in-depth look at potential key players from Bournemouth and Luton Town, alongside other standout options across the league.

Goalkeepers

Neto (Bournemouth) and Thomas Kaminski (Luton Town) emerge as the go-to keepers for those looking to capitalize on the double gameweek.

However, the question remains if they are worth taking a -4 hit or more, with single gameweek goalkeepers like David Raya (Arsenal) and Alphonse Areola (West Ham) having appealing fixtures themselves. This week, it might be wiser to stick with the reliable single gameweek options.

Defenders

In defense, Arsenal's duo Gabriel and William Saliba continue to be attractive options as Arsenal appear defensively solid. For those focusing on Double Gameweek players, Alfie Doughty (Luton Town), known for his set-piece duties, is a strong pick.

Bournemouth's Illia Zabarnyi and Milos Kerkez could provide returns from the back. Antonee Robinson (Fulham) could serve as a single gameweek differential, given Fulham's strong home form.

Midfielders

The midfield selections for this double gameweek present a tricky puzzle. Tahit Chong and Ross Barkley (Luton Town) might offer value but lack consistent attacking returns. Meanwhile, Justin Kluivert (Bournemouth) is in form and could be a key asset for the Cherries. Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) is expected to bounce back after an early substitution last round. Jarrod Bowen (West Ham) could exploit Burnley's defensive frailties, and Pascal Groß (Brighton) remains a constant set-piece threat.

Forwards

Forward choices are equally critical, with Erling Haaland (Manchester City) facing a challenging fixture against Liverpool—possibly a week to look beyond him for the captaincy. Dominick Solanke (Bournemouth) stands out as a popular captain choice due to his double gameweek. Carlton Morris (Luton Town) could be a pivotal player for those targeting Luton assets. Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa), the highest-scoring forward in FPL currently, is deemed essential regardless of fixture difficulty.

As managers navigate through Gameweek 28, the balance between seizing the double gameweek advantage and sticking with consistent performers from single fixture teams will be key.

The potential for points swings is significant, making it crucial to weigh the benefits of transfers and hits against sticking with a solid core of players who have served well so far. Good luck to all FPL managers as they make their decisions for this pivotal gameweek!
