🔥FIXTURE TRANSFER GUIDE🔥

Here are some of the best transfers to make early in the season to capitalise on fixture swings ‼️

Taking advantage of those green fixtures for as long as possible ✅

[THREAD] 🧵

#FPL #FPLCommunity
GW4: Ings ➡️ Jimenez

Ings has already hit form in pre-season with a goal in his first start for Villa, so his first 3 fixtures should be a treat for owners🔥

We can then move him on to Jimenez, who has some of the best fixtures in the league up until GW14 🤯
GW4: Targett ➡️ Tierney

Villa’s first 3 fixtures are there to attack, but then the fixtures get tough where can expect very few CSs ⚠️

That’s where moving to Tierney will have its upside, all the way up until GW11 the fixtures are bright green for Arsenal ✅
GW5: Greenwood ➡️ Raphinha

We can expect Greenwood to start the early season fixtures with doubts over Sancho starting early, Martial’s fitness, and Cavani being on an extended break 👀

He can be moved on for Raphinha’s green fixtures, one of the key men in the Leeds attack ✅
GW6: Toney ➡️ A.Armstrong

Toney is the perfect budget striker to start with, given he’s on pens and is Brentford’s main man 🔥

Armstrong should be very well settled in at Southampton by GW6, in time for his run of green fixtures until GW12 ✅
GW7: Bruno ➡️ Lukaku

It will definitely be difficult to fit in more than 2 premiums at a time, so Bruno may need to be sacrificed when the fixtures get sour for United 🤔

If Lukaku hits some form, we will all want him in for Chelsea’s good run from GW7 🔥

(2 FTs needed ⚠️)
GW7: Shaw ➡️ Chilwell

Shaw is a chance creating machine for United. Expect some assists in those easy run of games to start the season 🔥

You can move him on to Chilwell (or any other Chelsea defender) for their incredible run until GW14. Under Tuchel, expect plenty of CSs ✅
GW7: DCL ➡️ Bamford
GW7: Digne ➡️ Firpo

Fitting in an Everton asset from GW1 to 6 could be wise option 👀

Many will be aiming to have triple Leeds by GW7 for those 4 amazing fixtures until GW10. Bamford in particular, is one that many will fear not owning here ⚠️
GW10: Wilson ➡️ Wood

The talisman of Newcastle will definitely want to hit the ground running after his spell of injuries last season, and he has the fixtures to do so 👀

It’s then an easy switch to Wood until GW18, where Burnley tend to only do well against the easier teams ✅
Taking advantage of fixtures should not be neglected, as good fixtures can easily lead to good form ✅

However, it’s also important to not pencil in too many of these transfers in advance ‼️

🍬 Everton (GW24-29)

Two home games in DGW24, followed by some nice fixtures against leaky defences.

Owning one or two Everton assets won’t hurt.
