The Scout highlights key dates for Blank and Double Gameweeks over the remainder of the 2024/25 season to help managers in Fantasy Premier League to plan ahead.

A Double Gameweek contains more than the normal 10 fixtures, with at least one club playing two Premier League fixtures in one Gameweek, and players from that club getting two chances to score Fantasy points. 

A Blank Gameweek contains fewer than the normal 10 matches, with at least one club having no Premier League fixture, and players from such a club having no chance of scoring Fantasy points.

As it stands, there is only one confirmed Blank or Double Gameweek in the schedule, and it's coming up this weekend!

Blank Gameweek 34

Four teams are without a fixture in Blank Gameweek 34 (BGW34) due to the FA Cup semi-finals: Arsenal, Aston Villa, Crystal Palace and Manchester City.

Fixtures going ahead in GW34

Chelsea v Everton
Brighton v West Ham
Newcastle v Ipswich
Southampton v Fulham
Wolves v Leicester
AFC Bournemouth v Man Utd
Liverpool v Spurs
Nottingham Forest v Brentford

Depending on the results of the FA Cup semi-finals, two matches from Gameweek 37 will need to be rescheduled from their current date. This could result in an extra Blank Gameweek and therefore an extra Double Gameweek.
