We have come up with our list of top tips for Gameweek 12 of Fantasy Premier League after expert analysis regarding players, fixtures, and numerous other aspects. Let's not delay any more time then, scroll down below to find out our FPL tips this weekend .


FPL tips this weekend - Gameweek 12 (GW12)

1. What to do with Gabriel?

Gabriel suffered an injury while on international duty with Brazil, and there's no update on whether he'll be fit for Arsenal's North London derby against Spurs in Gameweek 12. We are suggesting you 2 options as a solution to this complicated scenario. Either select Gabriel in your starting lineup, and make sure your first bench player is a solid alternative in case the Brazilian is completely ruled out. Another option is to sell Gabriel and get someone like Jurrien Timber who's almost equally good as the Brazilian.


2. Chelsea double midfield is a realistic option

Chelsea will be facing Burnley away in Gameweek 12. Thus, going double Chelsea midfield is a great option considering the quality of midfielders they have and their affordable prices. The likes of Enzo Fernandez, Moises Caicedo, Alejandro Garnacho and Pedro Neto are all great options to add to your Fantasy Premier League team for Gameweek 12. Alternatively, you can also pair one of these midfielders with forward João Pedro.


3. Should you pick Liverpool players for Gameweek 12?

Liverpool have been in terrible form in the Premier League, and they would've been glad that the international break came in between. They will be facing Nottingham Forest at home in GW12, and there will be huge pressure on Arne Slot and his men since they're coming from a heavy defeat against Pep Guardiola's Manchester City side. Our opinion on this is that if you already own Liverpool players in your FPL team, then play them. If you don't own any of them, then wait and see how they play in this game and make decisions on buying a Liverpool player in the future.


4. Haaland is our number 1 captaincy pick

Newcastle away is one of the most difficult fixtures in a Premier League season, especially considering how impressive they are defensively. However, Erling Haaland is in such form that you cannot rule him out in any game at this moment. Manchester City's star striker is capable of destroying the Newcastle defenders in his current form, and we suggest you don't take the risk and go for another captain. He is undoubtedly the best FPL captain pick this week.


5. Who are some ideal differential captains for Gameweek 12?

If you're insistent on not having Erling as your FPL captain for GW12 and looking out for other options, then we have some best alternatives as well. We suggest the likes of João Pedro, Jean-Philippe Mateta, and Bryan Mbeumo as the best differential captains picks for this week with a huge scope of giving you high attacking returns. Just don't forget that this'll be a risky move, but also one of huge rewards if things go in your favour.


These were our FPL tips for Gameweek 12. Select your final Fantasy Premier League team keeping our points in mind, and most probably you'll end up with great points after the Gameweek gets over. That's it from our side for now. See you soon!
