Well done to all Rashford (triple) captainers in the previous double gameweek. But now is it time to focus on double gameweek 23 in Fantasy Premier League.
Let’s jump to our FPL GW23 Tips
1. Fantasy Premier League Double Gameweek 23 Tips
- Manchester City and Arsenal have a double gameweek
- target Manchester City, Arsenal, and Newcastle players if you are on a free hit (although it might be more valuable later in the season, especially in big blank in GW28)
- Haaland + Ederson + KdB/Mahrez is our preferred trio from Man City
- Arsenal also have a double in GW25, meaning they play 5 matches in next 3 gameweeks. You need three players from their team from GW23 onwards
- GW25 will be blank and double at the same time, plan for that gameweek. Liverpool, Wolves, Arsenal and Everton play twice in DGW25.
- Saka + Odegaard + Gabriel is our preferred trio from Arsenal. Nketiah also an amazing option, but we cannot fit him in. Martinelli is a sell, GW22 showed that Trossard is a threat to his playing time
- Do not forget to plan for blank gameweeks: GW25 and GW28
- Gameweek 23 Differential: Wilson
- Differential captain for GW23: Saka
- Gameweek 27 will be a double gameweek for Brentford, Brighton, Crystal Palace and Southampton
