Best Gameweek 18 fixtures
The Gameweek 18 fixtures run from the 30th of December through to the 1st of January To help FPL managers with their decisions we take a look at the teams with the best fixtures in Gameweek 18.
Fantasy Football Scout members have the opportunity to sort the Fixture Ticker by difficulty. This means that they are able to see how difficult the matches are over a range they have specified. Members are also able to sort the Fixture Ticker by defence and attack. You can sign up as a Fantasy Football Scout member here.
We have sorted the Fixture Ticker by difficulty and the four teams that sit top are Chelsea, Man City, Crystal Palace and Fulham. We take a look at the teams with the best fixtures in Gameweek 18.
Chelsea
Chelsea are top of the FFScout Fixture Ticker for Gameweek 18. The Blue’s travel to the midlands to play Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon. Chelsea have a good record against the newly promoted sides.
Christian Pulisic has six attacking returns in his ten matches against newly promoted teams prior to the start of the 2022/23 season.
Man City
Second on the Fixture Ticker for Gameweek 18 are Man City. They host Everton at the Etihad.
Man City beat Everton in both matches that they played against them in the league last season. Everton failed to score in both those fixtures.
Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace sit third on the Fixture Ticker for Gameweek 18. They travel south to Bournemouth.
Ahead of the World Cup, Palace were in mixed form with two wins and two defeats in their last four. Wilfried Zaha was a popular pick for FPL assets ahead of the World Cup, however his missed penalty in Gameweek 16 has seen him sold by many FPL managers.
Fulham
Fulham are fourth on the Fixture Ticker for Gameweek 18. They host Southampton.
Fulham will likely be popular investments ahead of the match against Southampton. This is especially true of attacking assets such as Pereira and Mitrovic as a result of Southampton’s defensive weaknesses. In addition any investment in Fulham this week would be good for Fulham’s Double Gameweek 19 fixtures against Leicester and Chelsea.
