The season continues so in this article we take a look at some FPL planning for Gameweeks 28-30. With the help of the Fantasy Football Scout Members Area we highlight the best teams to invest in, the best players to buy and if we should use a chip.

Our FPL planning for Gameweeks 28-30 can be extremely helpful to fantasy managers. Having a good idea of which teams to invest in and which players to buy could help you claim a successful start season. So, let’s dive in!

Gameweek 28-30 Fixtures

Below we can see the Fantasy Football Scout Fixture Ticker in difficulty order. The teams at the top have the easiest fixtures and the teams at the bottom have the toughest fixtures.

Who has the best fixtures?

Wolves, Bournemouth, West Ham, Nottingham Forest and Manchester City all rank among the top five teams with the easiest fixtures.

Who has the worst fixtures?

Aston Villa, Newcastle, Liverpool, Fulham and Crystal Palace all rank among the bottom five teams with the toughest fixtures.

Best Players to Buy

Wolves – Matches against Everton, Southampton and West Ham could hold plenty of potential for Wolves assets. The ban to Matheus Cunha (£7m) is disappointing, but it could give more responsibility to fellow striker Strand Larsen (£5.2m). In defence, Jose Sa (£4.3m) is one of the cheapest routes in. However, offering more attacking threat are Nelson Semedo (£4.5m) and Rayan Ait-Nouri (£4.7m).

Bournemouth – Tottenham, Brentford and Ipswich could be excellent opportunities for the Cherries. Centre-back Dean Huijsen (£4.5m) and goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga (£4.6m) are budget routes into the backline. Standing out in attack is penalty taker Justin Kluivert (£6.1m). Fellow midfielder Antoine Semenyo (£5.7m) could also be another great and reliable path into the effective attack.

West Ham – West Ham face Newcastle, Everton and Wolves, which could see potential for their assets. Coming in as one of the cheapest starting goalkeepers in the game, Alphonse Areola (£4.2m) continues to start for the Hammers. A more attacking option in defence is full-back Aaron Wan Bissaka (£4.4m). The best option in attack is of course main man Jarrod Bowen (£7.4m). However, a cheaper option is fellow midfielder Mohammed Kudus (£6.2m).

Who else should we consider?

Brentford – The fixtures are better than they appear at first glance for the Bees. Because of this, goalkeeper Mark Flekken (£4.4m) could be an option between the sticks. Most of Brentford’ appeal comes from their attackers, especially the in-form penalty taker Bryan Mbeumo (£8m). Another fantastic option, who has managed two returns in his previous two matches is striker Yoane Wissa (£6.4m).

Chris Wood (£7.2m) – The Nottingham Forest striker has become one of the most reliable assets in the game for output this campaign. With that in mind, and his fixture in Blank Gameweek 29, he could be a great pick.

Erling Haaland (£14.7m) – With Nottingham Forest, Brighton and Leicester ahead, it could be time to bring the Norwegian back in. Haaland has returned in all but one of his previous six matches, so goes into the period mentioned in great form.

Should We Use a Chip?

Gameweek 29 could be a great opportunity to use a chip, more specifically the Free Hit. The Free Hit can help managers navigate the round, but also focus in on the players with the best fixtures.

FPL managers could also consider using their Wildcard in Gameweek 30. For those looking to dead-end their teams into Blank Gameweek 29, a Gameweek 30 wildcard could be perfect to help set you up for the rest of the season.
