Here’s my ranking of the ease of each clubs next 6 fantasy premier league fixtures from game week 27 onwards plus in the next columns how the next 6 fixtures will look like from GW28 and GW29. Now you can see the fantasy premier league trends in fixtures coming up.
Its worth noting that the schedule is more for the attacking ease as its difficult to cater for both goal potential and clean sheets in all cases. For example playing Man Utd when your team is at home you do have a good chance of scoring so from an attacking perspective its not a bad game but from a clean sheet perspective its a nightmare you virtually no chance of a clean sheet.
I’ve also included “captain planning” for the weeks ahead and The “don’t sell this team” part which follows my rule that you should never sell a player from a team which has an easy game next (obviously injury permitting)
Also when you buy and sell always look at actual fixtures as a common sense test. A team may be ranked low on the fixture ease schedule because the last 4 of the 6 are hard but the next 2 could be Southampton and Reading so don’t sell at this point.
Fixture ease rank and trending

| 1 | Stoke (Fulham A) | 1 | 4 | |
| 2 | Newcastle (South H) | 2 | 3 | |
| 3 | Arsenal (A Villa H) | 6 | 2 | |
| 4 | Norwich (Everton H ) | 7 | 1 | |
| 5 | Chelsea (Man City A) | 3 | 13 | |
| 6 | Man U (QPR A) | 14 | 9 | |
| 7 | Southampton (Newcast A) | 4 | 10 | |
| 8 | Reading (Wigan H) | 8 | 6 | |
| 9 | QPR(Man Utd H) | 13 | 7 | |
| 10 | Sunderland (WBA A) | 11 | 16 | |
| 11 | Fulham (Stoke H) | 17 | 15 | |

| 19 | Everton (Norwich A) | 16 | 18 | |
| 20 | Swansea (No game) | 15 | 11 | |
So from this schedule the most compelling teams to have players for short and long term fixtures are:
Stoke – Wilson Walters
Newcastle – Cisse Sissoko
Norwich – Snodgrass R Martin
Chelsea – Mata Cole
Arsenal – Szczesny Sagna Walcott Giroud
Man U RVP Rooney
Captain planning and worst defence monitor
However having players to fill the captain slots is also important. Here’s the fixtures that will probably make up our captain choice. Obviously at the moment this ignores RVP who could get the armband permanently. The three juiciest opponents at the moment are away games for Aston Villa Sunderland and Reading and I’ve highlighted these as options for players to think about
Round 27
Arsenal v Aston Villa
Round 28
Everton v Reading
Southampton v QPR
Aston Villa v Man City
Round 29
Man City v Wigan
Round 30
Chelsea v West Ham
Tottenham v Fulham
Man U v Reading
Dont sell!
Heres the dont sell list for this week due to a good fixture
Arsenal v Aston Villa
