Arsenal

Gameweeks 7-12 appears to be Arsenal’ easiest run.

Aston Villa

Aston Villa have two periods that standout: Gameweeks 3-8 and Gameweeks 24-36. During that latter period they face no red (tough) fixtures.

Bournemouth

Between Gameweeks 24-31 seems to be the best time to invest in Bournemouth players.

Brentford

Brentford have two fantastic fixture runs between Gameweek 15-21 and Gameweeks 27-35.

Brighton

Brighton don’t have many smooth fixture runs during the 2025/26 campaign. However, one managers could consider is Gameweeks 7-12.

Burnley

Far from convincing, newly promoted side Burnley have an extremely tough fixture list overall. However, in each of the runs above they face one red opponent.

Chelsea

Gameweeks 1-6 and Gameweeks 21-27 look like Chelsea’ best period in the upcoming season.

Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace have two good fixture runs in the new season: One between Gameweek 10-15 and the other between Gameweek 25-30.

Everton

Everton are another side who lack truly convincing runs. But, periods between Gameweeks 9-15 and Gameweeks 18-27 could hold potential.

Fulham

Fulham are quite difficult when it comes to pinpointing a nice run of matches. Gameweek 15-19 does appear to be their best opportunity though.

Leeds

Newly promoted side Leeds will likely find every match they face challenging. However, they have two large runs that could be appealing for FPL managers.

Arguably their best run is between Gameweeks 29-38, where they face zero red fixtures.

Liverpool

2024/25 champions have two interesting runs here. Whilst Gameweeks 12-20 could see plenty of success for their assets, Gameweeks 22-35 sees them play just one red fixture against Manchester City.

Manchester City

Manchester City have one major standout period between Gameweeks 13-24.

During that period Pep Guardiola’ men face no tough opposition, which could suggest potential across the board.

Manchester United

Manchester United have one especially good fixture run. During Gameweeks 11-21 the Reds have just one red fixture against Aston Villa.

They also have another good fixture run between Gameweeks 24-28.

Newcastle

The Magpies have one standout period in the upcoming season. Eddie Howe’ men don’t face any tough fixtures between Gameweeks 13-22.

This could be a fantastic time to invest in their players.

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest have two decent runs ahead: Gameweeks 13-17 and Gameweeks 30-34.

Sunderland

Targeting two runs between Gameweeks 1-8 and Gameweeks 20-24 could be ideal for those going for Sunderland players.

Tottenham

Tottenham also have two good runs of fixtures. Between Gameweeks 3-11 and Gameweeks 18-23 they do not face a single tough opponent.

West Ham

The Hammers have an inconsistent schedule, but for one period between Gameweeks 18-23, could have potential.

Wolves

Wolves have two very good periods to potentially invest: between Gameweeks 5-10 and Gameweeks 32-38.
