Fantasy Football Live Match Chat GW31
The Man City vs Palace fixture has finally been confirmed as a blank. They join Arsenal and Wolves to give us our first blank gameweek of the season.
Despite the reduced fixture list, we’ve still got games spread across three days — because of course we do.
We kick things off with Man United’s trip to Bournemouth, where the hosts have become something of an FPL hotspot in recent weeks. If Bruno Fernandes is wearing your armband, you’ll be hoping the early kick-off captaincy curse is just a myth we all tell ourselves after the damage is done.
Saturday brings four fixtures, but — rather cruelly — just one 3pm kick-off. The traditionalists will be absolutely livid. We start with Liverpool away at Brighton in the lunchtime slot, before the solitary 3pm game sees popular captain pick Harry Wilson’s Fulham welcome Burnley to the Cottage.
Into the evening, Everton take on Chelsea at 5:30pm, followed by Leeds vs Brentford at 8pm — because nothing says “prime-time entertainment” quite like that.
Sunday at 2:30pm, and it’s all about the Tyne-Wear derby (well, for me anyway). Newcastle will be looking to avenge their defeat at the Stadium of Light, and perhaps restore a bit of dignity after their midweek embarrassment at the Nou Camp. No pressure.
We then close out the gameweek with two 2:15pm kick-offs — because scheduling consistency is clearly overrated — as Villa host West Ham and Spurs face Forest.
Good luck all — you’re going to need it.
The games in full…

Everyone is talking about WC in GW 32. Think I might postpone it, of course that is 3 weeks away and many things could happen by then.

I think many are going for the WC to just get in players for the DGW’s but many people will have these players anyway, Arsenal, City and Newcastle have a pretty good fixture run to the end of the season so three of each could be viable.
I only have my FH left.

So is it City, Arsenal, Palace and Wolves that will have a dgw? Or have I got that wrong
Reg83
Arsenal vs wolves already happened. But arsenal will get another dgw if they reach fa cup sf as expected

Could bench Anderson but he’s great for defcons and Haaland is lousy these days
Reg83
Haaland over the midfielder andersen.. else sell Haaland but to who is the question
Terminators
I think play Haaland over Anderson or possibly Wilson, the thing with Halland is even though he’s been pretty poor this season, he is still the one player that can just score at will, Chelsea defence isn’t very good, I really think this is one of those where whoever you bench will score the most points out of the two players you are trying to decide between.
I have included Wilson because as good as he’s been and as poor as Liverpool are, Liverpool always just have that bit more oomph at home, yes in the form they are in, they can and are likely to concede, but which is more likely Wilson has to score or Anderson has to keep a clean sheet and get top defcon and/or back to Haaland has to score.

It’s Haaland and not Pedro now. CHE are awful and so is Pedro.
