Here’s my ranking of the ease of each clubs next 6 fantasy premier league fixtures from game week 32 onwards plus in the next columns how the next 6 fixtures will look like from GW33. 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.

So from this schedule the most compelling teams to have players for short and long term fixtures are firstly the GW33 double gameweekers:
Arsenal: Cazorla Walcott if fit Giroud Fabianski Mertesacker
Everton: Fellaini Distin
Fulham: Berbatov
West Ham: Demel Carroll
Man Utd if lose the FA Cup tomorrow – RVP, Rooney, De Gea
Chelsea if lose the FA Cup tomorrow – Mata Hazard Lampard Azpilicueta
Other than that
Southampton – Clyne Lambert Lallana when fit Rodriguez
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. The three juiciest opponents at the moment are away games for Aston Villa Sunderland and Reading and I’ve highlighted these as options where appropriate for players to think about
Round 32
Chelsea v Sunderand – Mata
Liverpool v West Ham – Suarez
Round 33
Arsenal DGW – Walcott, Cazorla
Round 34
Man U v Villa – RVP, Rooney
Dont sell!
Heres the dont sell list for this week due to a good fixture. Unless you’re using your WC
Reading v Southampton
Stoke v Villa
Liverpool v West Ham
Chelsea v Sunderland
