FPL Double Gameweek 25 and Blank Gameweek 29
In this article we take a look at FPL Double Gameweek 25 and Blank Gameweek 29.
So, then, it’ll be back-to-back Double Gameweeks for Liverpool after they progressed to the EFL Cup final.
Their mid-March league meeting with Aston Villa – which clashes with the Reds’ trip to Wembley – will now be brought forward to Gameweek 25, creating a ‘double’ for both clubs.
Those two sides will also now blank in Gameweek 29, however.
LIVERPOOL + ASTON VILLA: REVISED SCHEDULES
In Double Gameweek 25, Liverpool entertain Wolverhampton Wanderers before they travel to Villa Park.
That’s their only home league game among the five they contest in Gameweeks 24-26.
Wolves made it tricky for Arne Slot’s side in the reverse fixture, going down fighting in a 2-1 loss.
As for the Villans, they have a much more favourable encounter with Ipswich Town before they face the might of the league leaders.
Thereafter, both clubs have Gameweek 26 encounters with big-six clubs who, while tricky opponents on paper, leave a lot to be desired from a defensive perspective these days.
There’s certainly a school of thought that both sides’ Gameweek 27 opponents might prove to be a tougher nut for Mohamed Salah (£13.7m), Morgan Rogers (£5.6m) and co to crack.
Probably the easiest fixture of the season, Southampton at home, precedes Liverpool’s Blank Gameweek 29 – so players from Slot’s squad are not easy early sells for Gameweek 29 dead-enders.
LIVERPOOL TRIPLE-UPS ALREADY IN PLACE FOR MOST
The above image from LiveFPL shows how many players from each club feature in the average top 100k squad.
Most FPL managers are already well set up for Liverpool’s Double Gameweek 25, then, having trebled up on the Reds – be it players and/or Arne Slot (£1.5m) – before Double Gameweek 24.
We’ll obviously have to monitor the fitness of the well-owned Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.4m) ahead of the February 14 deadline. The early noises from the Liverpool camp are positive, however.
