Best FPL tips this week - Gameweek 26 (GW26)

Manchester United and Chelsea double/triple up look like an exciting prospect

Both Manchester United and Chelsea are enjoying a new manager bounce at the moment and are in great form. Both United and Chelsea also have great fixtures this week on paper in the form of West Ham and Leeds United respectively. Thus, doing a double-up or triple-up on Chelsea or Manchester United players at the moment is a risk worth taking right now in FPL.


Make sure to avoid Tottenham and Newcastle players this week

Tottenham vs Newcastle this week is a game between 2 top sides this season who have been in disastrous form. It is even possible that this could be a lifeless game that ends in a 0-0 draw, such is the state of affairs at both clubs. Thus, our suggestion is to avoid players from both these clubs for this week. If you have them already in your squad, it's better to bench or sell them.


Nottingham Forest players might be a punt worth taking in FPL this week

For those Fantasy Premier League players who are big fans of differentials or taking risks, players from Nottingham Forest are attractive in that regard for this Gameweek. Although Forest themselves have been underwhelming this season, they'll be facing a Wolves side at home who have been nothing less than atrocious this season. Thus, getting Forest players in your FPL for this week might be a risk worth taking.


Be careful with Liverpool players in Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 26

Liverpool are in disastrous form at the moment, and the calls for Arne Slot to get sacked are getting louder after each passing Gameweek. They will face Sunderland in Gameweek 26, which might sound like an easy game on paper. However, the game will be taking place in Sunderland's home, where they are yet to suffer defeat this season. Thus, it would be wise to think twice before selecting Liverpool players in your FPL team this week.


There are multiple great FPL captain picks for this week

There are a lot of fixtures in Gameweek 26 where lots of players have huge scope for giving you great returns. There is no definite single player we feel that can be seen as the absolute best captain for this Gameweek, as every great captain option for this week has their very own reasons that make them highly attractive to pick. Our suggestions for best FPL captains this week would be the likes of Erling Haaland, Cole Palmer, and Viktor Gyökeres.


These were our best FPL tips for Gameweek 26. That's it from our side for now, we will see you soon with our Fantasy Premier League tips for next week.
