FPL GW29 Tips
Key notes for FPL GW29
Let’s start with our key notes for GW29 of FPL.
- Your strategy for GW29 depends on whether you are using your free hit in blank gameweek 30
- If you will use your free hit in GW30, focus on bringing in players from Liverpool, Spurs and Everton
- If you are not free hitting in GW30, bring in players from Arsenal and Spurs
- Arsenal and Spurs are only two teams which have 3 fixtures in next 2 gameweeks
- Burnley, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Manchester City, Manchester United, Norwich, Southampton, Watford have only 1 fixture in next 2 gmaeweeks
- Ramsdale, Saka, Lacazette are three best options from Arsenal (in that order)
- Son, Kane, Kulusevski are best three options from Spurs (in that order)
- Doherty could be a trap, if you are keen on bringing in Spurs defensive player, bring in Lloris
- If you do not plan to use your free hit in GW30, you can “dead end” your team to GW30 and in GW31 use wildcard
