FPL Double Gameweek 29 Differentials

Fantasy expert Lee Bonfield has revealed his Wildcard squad to give fellow Fantasy Premier League managers a helping hand when setting up their teams for a tricky next two Gameweeks. 

As many as six teams have a Double Gameweek 29 but four of them then have no fixture in Gameweek 30. That makes it problematic to target Brighton, Everton, Liverpool and Newcastle players ahead of Saturday's 11:00 GMT deadline

That is why even if you are not Wildcarding, Lee says it is important to go big on two sides in particular.   

"I need a bit more Spurs and Arsenal in my team," he says on the latest episode of the FPL Show.

"I'm going to set myself up for the Double and muddle through Gameweek 30. I was going to Free-Hit in Gameweek 30 but I don't see enough upside in that now. 

"So I'll have all the key players for Gameweek 30 in my Wildcard team knowing I've got the Free Hit in my pocket for some Double Gameweeks later in the season."

Time to Triple-Captain?

While Lee cannot play a second chip in Gameweek 29, he and his wife Sam, the other half of the @FPLFamily, say any managers who have their Triple Captain left should consider using it now.

Indeed, more than 100,000 of those chips are active, and Sam and Lee see two outstanding options for it.

"[Harry] Kane!" Sam says.

"[Bukayo] Saka!" Lee responds.
