Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek 1 2023/24 Welcome to Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek 1 2023/24 Writing this particular article for GW1 is always a bit of a mug’s game. Or a bugger’s muddle, if you like. The reasons for this are many. Do you wish me to tell you exactly which teams will begin the season on fire, and which will be already staring down the barrel of relegation come GW6?! Right, ok… and what would you like me to base this on exactly? Last season? Maybe. Pre-season form? Maybe, but probably not. Signings? That’s always difficult to predict how they will translate. Potential signings? Clutching at straws now. Players leaving? I can give you two very different versions of how Spurs may look depending on what Harry Daniel decides to do!

Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek DGW29 With a DGW this week, a blank (ish) one to follow a few weeks later, and now another confirmed, and decently full looking, DGW again in 34, we thought it may be high time to take a closer look at the fixtures of each team. It can be a bit of a numbers game when we get to this stage of the season. Numbers such as Liverpool having 5 games in the next 4 weeks vs Man City having just the 3, or indeed Liverpool having 8 in the next 6. With chips needing to be used up these numbers are all important, as is planning ahead, so let us try to make some simple sense of it all for you. When we do these articles we normally just concentrate on the immediate, usually about three games in advance. For this one we are going to stretch that out for six GW’s to...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW9 We figured this International Break may be an apt time to interject with a bit of a fixtures analysis article, all things considered. There are now only 8 PL game-weeks until the World Cup and then we will effectively have a 6 week break. We shall come on to the exact timings below and we will look at your Wildcard options and then have a quick dip into which teams have the best / worst / most convulated schedules ahead, as this short period is not all just about the PL, as you are about to find out… FPL FIXTURE TRACKER But first up that all important Fixture Tracker itself… This is the Fixture Tracker as it looks with just the PL games on it. We shall poo-poo this very shortly… FIXTURE TRACKER LINK FIXTURE TRACKER 2022/23 Fixture co...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW1 Centre Forwards are back in fashion then? I should really begin with a bit of an apology, although in essence I’m not really apologising at all. I’ve sort of disappeared over the summer, almost to the point of invisibility, but with dam good reason! I swore to myself that finally, for once, after 14 summer’s of promising myself I would but never actually doing so I would finally have an actual break from all this malarkey. And so I did. So what have I done woth my spare time? Well, for starters I’ve had more holiday’s than Judith Chalmers (use Google youngsters) and I haven’t finished on that front yet. I’ve filled my usual ‘site time’ with real downtime: I watched the cricket. I’ve read 6 bo...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW33 It must be DGW planning time again! This almost feels like part 2 of what I began back in GW31 but, back then, we only had a few snippets of info to go on, namely a couple of DGW32 fixtures and a few more DGW33 ones. The latter ones still stand but now we have another raft of DGW36 and 37 games to add to our planning. The planning, or indeed the complete picture, is not yet finalised as we still have one game that is yet to be added (Wolves v Man City), apong with a few others that are currently scheduled but may yet be moved, depending on how teams progress in the other competitions, notably the FA Cup and the CL. We do still have enough though to build a framework from. So, as we stand, this is our take on how it looks and which teams may have the ...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW31 We need to talk about Kevin fixtures, or something… If I’m whipping out the ol’ fixtures article then you know there’s probably a bump or two in the road ahead. There are a good few on tw@tter that whip out the ol’ something else at the mere mention of a DGW but I’m a bit too old in the tooth for that now. The getting overly excited about it all bit, anyway. Don’t get me wrong, they can be extremely profitable if you play them right, and also get lucky with rotation along the way, but we’ve all also seen too many fall flat because of the aforementioned ‘R’ word. That said they need to be planned for and we are here to help with that as best we can. There a few blanks ahead too so it’s definitely worth taking a closer look at it all. In this article w...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW12 As we alluded to recently, we have scaled this particular article back a bit in recent times and, rather than waffle on about the same teams each week for a month, we are doing it more periodically and oft when it is more pertinent. An International Break is usually a good opportunity to re-boot and this one provides the perfect timing as we can now look ahead to a good chunk of five gameweeks from 12-16 and this then takes us nicely into the busy Christmas period which sees another five gameweeks, albeit those ones are squashed into 21 days. Consider this part one of two then and we shall have the Christmas sequel the week prior to Gameweek 17 to deal with the said mess above. Rather than just give you a vague idea of three teams with decent fixture...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW7 Welcome to Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW7 On the face of it this may seem like a bit of an odd week to roll out a fixtures article as we are about to have a break for the internationals but GW7 always felt like a bit of a turning point as quite a few teams see a change in their fixture fortune from this point in time. How much stock you put in the fixtures themselves is up to you, as we all know an in-form player can sometimes make a mockery of them. Sometimes… More often than not though it pays to be informed so that you can target the next big thing. Or quite simply bring in the obvious thing (player) at the correct time. Our usual format here is to examine the good vs the bad, except that when we sat down and attempted to split the te...[Read More]

FPL Fixtures Gameweek 35 It looks like we finally get to write about some upcoming fixtures that we know will actually happen and won’t be changed on a whim. DGW35 was announced last week and along with it a blank-ish GW36. As ever with these things they are not mutually exclusive and as such the excitement of bringing in assets from Arsenal, Leicester, Chelsea and Man United for a bumper double haul will be tempered with the knowledge that they will all then cause you a headache with a blank the week after. However, Villa, Palace, Everton and Saints all now have 3 games in 2 weeks, with the caveat that they are all fairly crap teams! Which was all well and good up until Sunday when Man United vs Liverpool was called off! This has to be fitted in somewhere and the best guess right no...[Read More]
