Here are the fixtures for #GW22:

Man Utd & Leeds have a Double Gameweek ‼️
Teams to target:

Man Utd 🔴

Have a double gameweek vs CRY/LEE. It would be hard to handpick a better double, both at home!

Narrowly beat by Arsenal in their last league game however have won all 3 domestic games in between.
(Reading/Nott’m Forest x2)

Confidence is flowing!
Leeds ⚪️

Also have a double gameweek this week! NFO/MUN (A)

A draw last time out in the league vs Brentford followed by a win in the FA Cup vs Accrington Stanley

A few additions in January to really bolster the squad! (Rutter/McKennie)
Arsenal 🔴

Their best even start to a season! 50 points from 19 games 🤯

Impressive 3-2 win at home to Man Utd.

Face a struggling Everton (A) next in the league!

Also have a double coming up (GW23) so best to target them now with such a good single gameweek!
Man City 👕

Much improved since that defeat vs Man Utd.

2 wins, 7 goals, both at home!

Spurs (A) next, a team who they’ve just beat 4-2.

1-0 win vs Arsenal in the FA Cup!

Also double next week (GW23) would advise a double up at the very least.

Captaincy Options:

Marcus Rashford 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Unbelievably it’s not Erling Haaland as the first choice captain this week!

Rashford has been in incredible goalscoring form since the World Cup!

He continued that with a stunning goal at the Emirates & the City Ground…
…vs Nott’m Forest in the EFL Cup semi-final first leg.

Continued with two assist in 10 minutes of coming on in the 2nd leg!

I expect him to be the most captained player this gameweek, here’s why…
A double gameweek for Man Utd, both home games vs CRY/LEE just makes Rashford so much more appealing if he wasn’t already!

Since the World Cup, Rashford has scored 5 goals from a xG of 3.7 and has a xGi of 4.5.

All games at Old Trafford, Rashford has scored 7 goals from…
…a xG of 6.28.

Rashford has a xGi of 8.3 in all home games.

At home, Rashford is continuously over-performing which proves he loves playing at Old Trafford!

With both games in the double at home, this only bodes well for the England forward!
Rashford has been given the same odds (%) of a chance of scoring in both games (32%)

With 10 goals in his last 12 games, can he bring this form and continue it in the double?

Will he be your captain going into what is #DGW22 for Man Utd?
Bruno Fernandes 🇵🇹

Rashford’s team-mate is the next captaincy option!

Like Rashford, Bruno has had a fantastic start since the World Cup ended.

He has returned in each of his last 5 league games! In FPL, one of those was a 19 point haul, DGW20!

CRY/LEE up next!
Since the restart, Bruno has created 6 big chances, claiming 3 assists from a xA of 3.18.

He’s notched twice from a xG of 1.13.

At Old Trafford, the same pattern occurs!

Comparing this to Rashford, Bruno is the far superior creator and his slight over performance in…
…front of goal as of late has levelled up the xGi.

However, overall, Rashford seems to be far superior in games at Old Trafford!

It’s good to note that Bruno has played more minutes so could be the more reliable pick.
There’s not much in it but Bruno Fernandes is a perfectly good pick to captain your side in #GW22

With Rashford’s expected ownership to be sky high, a great alternative!

Bruno has lower (%} odds to score than Rashford but a 43% chance of a goal involvement in both games!
Erling Haaland 🇳🇴

There’s no surprise seeing this man on a captaincy options thread of mine!

A hat-rick in his last PL game vs Wolves (H). His 4th of the the season!

Haaland reaches 25 goals this season, already. That’s more than the golden boot winner has scored in the…
…previous 4 seasons!

Incredible 👏🏻

Next up for Haaland is Spurs (A). A tough fixture on paper but a team who he has recently scored against.

He notched in MCI’s 4-2 win over them in DGW20.
On paper, the fixture is tough. However, Haaland has proved on multiple occasions this season he can score BIG points!

He’s a very reliable captain and can match any of those with a double gameweek!

He could be a slight alternative this week with many to favour those…
…with doubles, I expect!

The Norwegian has a whopping 63% chance of scoring anytime this gameweek!

That’s almost double Rashford’s % in each game!

Not usually is Haaland an alternative but a beneficial one he could be?

Are you willing to take that chance and captain…
…a single gameweek player in a double?
Differential Captaincy Options:

Luke Shaw 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

The England defender is my first differential captaincy option this week!

Shaw has blanked in his last 3 league games but they’ve admittedly been tough fixtures.

From GW17-20 he accumulated 32 points from games vs NFO/WOL/BOU.
The double for Man Utd consists of CRY/LEE, both at home.

Very similar fixtures according to the FDR in which Shaw got those 32 points from.

He started off a CB after the restart but has shuffled back into his natural left back spot with the return of Martinez.
This obviously adds more attacking threat to his game!

With the addition of Weghorst, I’d expect to see Shaw delivering lots of crosses in from that left flank.

A 52% chance of a clean sheet vs Palace, a 42% chance vs Leeds.

The 2nd highest odds of a clean sheet this…
…gameweek behind Arsenal!

If you’re looking to chase then I think Shaw is a great punt this week.

Fixtures you’d expect Man Utd to be comfortable defensively in as well as dominating in attacking positions.

I’d expect to see Shaw higher up the pitch than we have seen…
…of late.

He could be in for a big haul ⏳

Are you willing to give the England left back the armband this week?

Are you Shaw? 😉
Illan Meslier 🇫🇷

Now this is an outrageous punt as a captaincy this week but I’m all for it!

If you need to go super differential then I think the French Goalkeeper could be your man!

Two tricky away games vs NFO/MUN, they don’t scream clean sheets but Leeds are capable.
A clean sheet last time out at home to Brentford and an impressive one of the road at Newcastle not so long ago, proves Leeds have got it in the locker.

They do concede lots of shots (19th in the league) which usually means Meslier makes a lot of saves!

29% chance of a…
…clean sheet at the City Ground which is quite respectable.

Nott’m Forest don’t tend to score lots of goals at home so it’s definitely achievable for Leeds and Meslier.

If it pays off then he’s got a good enough return to go into the game at Old Trafford as a “free hit”
I’m aware, it’s very outrageous but only two weeks ago in DGW20, Bernt Leno came away with a whopping 14 point haul 🧤

Desperate times can call for desperate measures!

If you’re in that sort of position; can Meslier save your season?
Triple Captain:

Here we are again…

Another double gameweek, another Triple Captaincy debate!

I think it’s a great opportunity to use it, especially on a Man Utd players considering how appealing the fixtures are!

I think you’d struggle to handpick a better double!
Two players stand out:

Marcus Rashford & Bruno Fernandes.

I expect both’s EO% to be high, but Rashford’s will be that high it’ll be a risk to go against him!

I compared the two in my thread:

Over the course of the season their xGi are very similar. However, Rashford…
…at Old Trafford is much more explosive! 🧨

At home Rashford’s xGi is 8.3 to Bruno’s 6.5.

Considering the form of Rashford, scoring 10 goals in his last 12 games, it seems like a great opportunity to activate the chip on him!

Bruno is more of a creator but if you fancy…
…going slightly differential, then he’s a fantastic alternative!

Bruno has had the better history in double gameweeks in the past! 👀
Captaincy Recommendation:

Marcus Rashford 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

As I’ve previously stated I think Rashford will be the most captained player this week and his EO% will be through the roof 🚀

You run the risk going against him and in his form, with the fixtures of the double (CRY/LEE) whom…
…are 18/19th for xGC since the restart! Only Leicester have conceded more!

He’s the man to captain this weekend! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿©️
Preview of my #GW22 team:

2FTs, £0,6m ITB💰

De Bruyne ➡️ Bruno Fernandes 🔒

The Man Utd triple up is essential this week given how good their double is!

Rolling the other transfer! 🎲

Rashford 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿©️

Triple Captain could be activated 🚨
The #Mediocre64 - @FPL_Hank2

A green arrow, finally 🙌🏻

Hoping I can climb a few more places this week with another double gameweek!

If the Triple Captain chip is played, it could well happen 👀

Especially those that have used the chip on Haaland in GW20!
