Premier League fantasy football tips: Time to think about upcoming blanks and doubles

Before you make any transfers this week see how your squad is looking for gameweeks 25, 27 and 28.

Brighton and Brentford then double in gameweek 27 along with Crystal Palace and Southampton.

The problem is that Brighton, Brentford and Southampton could then well blank in gameweek 28 along with the likes of Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham. Those fixtures will depend on the results in the fifth round of the FA Cup which takes place just before gameweek 25.

It may be that you will want to use your Free Hit chip if you've still got it to navigate your way through gameweek 28 and there is a viable strategy where you could wildcard in gameweek 27 to set yourself up for a Bench Boost in gameweek 29, which is likely to be a double gameweek for quite a few clubs, and play the Free Hit in between.
