Double Gameweek 25: Maximizing Points with Liverpool and Manchester City Players

The Premier League season is entering its final stretch, and Fantasy Premier League managers need to stay on top of the action. With matches being rescheduled, four teams will have a double gameweek in week 25, giving their players the opportunity to earn more points.

Liverpool

Liverpool will face Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final, resulting in their matches against Luton and Tottenham being postponed. Liverpool's players will have a double gameweek in week 25, increasing their chances of scoring points.

Manchester City

Manchester City will also have a double gameweek in week 25, playing against both Chelsea and Brentford. This presents a great opportunity for Fantasy Premier League managers to select Manchester City players and maximize their points.

Ivan Toney

Ivan Toney of Brentford has been in excellent form, scoring three goals in four games since his return from a ban. Despite facing tough fixtures against Liverpool and Manchester City, Toney is the main attacking threat for Brentford and could still provide points in the double gameweek.

Elijah Adebayo

Elijah Adebayo has been a standout performer for Luton this season, scoring nine goals and providing an assist in his 13 starts. He is expected to start both of Luton's games in gameweek 25, including a home game against Manchester United.

Kevin De Bruyne

Kevin De Bruyne of Manchester City has shown his ability to contribute points even when coming off the bench. With two favorable fixtures against Chelsea and Brentford, De Bruyne could be a strong option for Fantasy Premier League managers.

Alfie Doughty

Alfie Doughty is a more expensive option among Luton defenders, but he offers an attacking threat from the left-wing-back position. He is involved in creating chances for his teammates and is also on set-pieces. Additionally, Luton will have a double gameweek in week 28.

Virgil van Dijk

Virgil van Dijk is the most reliable Liverpool defender for the double gameweek, as Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson are either injured or returning from injury. Van Dijk is expected to play 180 minutes across the two games.

Diogo Jota

Diogo Jota has been filling in for the injured Mohamed Salah and has been in good form, scoring goals and providing assists. While he may not play the full 180 minutes, Jota is likely to be the biggest attacking threat for Liverpool in the double gameweek.

Ederson

Ederson is the safest option to have Manchester City defensive coverage for the double gameweek. With uncertainty around the starting lineup of City's defenders, Ederson provides a reliable route into their defense.

Darwin Nunez

Darwin Nunez has been inconsistent but has still managed to score goals for Liverpool this season. He is the first-choice striker and could produce a big points haul if he performs well in the double gameweek.

Phil Foden

Phil Foden has been in good form for Manchester City, scoring a hat-trick in gameweek 23. He offers great value for money at £8.0m and has been a regular starter for City since gameweek 12.

Erling Haaland

Erling Haaland is expected to be a popular choice for the double gameweek, especially as a captain option. After scoring a brace in his last game, Haaland will be looking to continue his goal-scoring form in the two favorable home fixtures.
