Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 37 Preview

Strategic Insights

— 2 min read

As the Premier League season draws to a close, there are only two gameweeks left before the final whistle blows, and Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers face a daunting task in deciding who to pick. The title and relegation spots have been sealed for a while, but the Champions League spots are still up for grabs, adding an extra layer of complexity to the selection process. With expensive big hitters not regularly returning, managers must turn to differentials and cheaper alternatives to fill their squads.

Key Takeaways:

  • Liverpool, who have not won in their last two games, have two final games at Brighton and at home to Crystal Palace, making their fixtures interesting for FPL managers.
  • Arsenal are without Mikel Merino for Newcastle United at home before the Gunners finish at Southampton on the final day, affecting their selection.
  • Manchester City, fresh from dropping points at Southampton, host Bournemouth before traveling to Fulham, making their fixtures relevant for FPL managers.
  • Aston Villa may have something to say about Chelsea's chances of Champions League football, with Spurs at home before a trip to Manchester United on the final day.
  • Fulham have a tough run, traveling to in-form Brentford before hosting Manchester City.
  • Crystal Palace may be focusing more on the FA Cup final on Saturday, which could affect their selection for FPL managers.
  • Wolverhampton Wanderers travel to Crystal Palace before hosting Brentford.
  • West Ham United will be looking to finish the season strongly at home to an out-of-sorts Nottingham Forest before traveling to Ipswich Town.
  • Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur will likely prioritize the Europa League final, which could impact their selection for FPL managers.

  • 16th-placed Manchester United has a crucial game at Chelsea before hosting Aston Villa.
  • 17th-placed Tottenham Hotspur has another tough game at Aston Villa before hosting Brighton.
