SUN DREAM TEAM TIPS – LOOKING AHEAD TO GAMEWEEKS 27-29
THE FFGEEK TEAMS
Team 1
GW26 score: 86 Points: 1,386 Overall Rank: 14,700 (pre GW27) Team value: £64.3m
Improved my rank by approximately 7k from GW26. Jones injury and Tadic’s lack of points are the only 2 particular problems. No transfer plans at the moment
Team 2
Gameweek score 74 Points: 1,315 Overall Rank: 48,614 (pre GW27) Team value: £63.1m
An improvement of rank by 15k from last week. My attempt to solve the Ward and Marshall problems was a complete disaster. I believe Mkhitaryan is injured so that maybe an issue
FIXTURES AND PLAYER SUGGESTIONS
Here’s a reminder of the rules from the website regarding transfers. Unless you’ve got transfers up your sleeve you wont get new transfers until the 1st March up to when Leicester and Liverpool will be locked.
Managers will be able make up to a maximum of three transfers to their team during each calendar month.
Transfers can be made providing that the Football club that both players involved in the transfer belong to, have not played in the current Game Week (Monday to Sunday).
A Game Week starts at 00:00:01 on a Monday and ends at 23:59:59 on the following Sunday.
If any player’s Club have played n that Game Week then they are ‘locked’ and cannot be moved in or out until the final match of the Game Week has ended.
The price of a player is as updated at the beginning of that Game Week by the Variable Player Pricing policy.
So here’s the teams with their upcoming schedules plus some player suggestions. The schedule is pretty obvious. However just to explain The column see lineups? basically tells you whether you will be able to see the lineups before making a transfer. You won’t be able if the player is locked as the team has played previously in the gameweek. Also if the game is sufficiently later in the day that the gameday will have started before the lineups have been announced.
The match centre is fairly confused over postponements and isn’t accurate. I’ve not been able to confirm lineup availability in some cases
Generally your players will come from the top 7 teams which is why I’ve just given you these fixtures and added on player suggestions
