There will be 12 teams with two matches in Gameweek 29 of the Premier League with players who have minimal sub risk, like Bruno Fernandes, set to dominate matchups at Fantrax.
It's a massive FPL double Gameweek 29 in the Premier League with 12 teams set for two matches, including West Ham and Jarrod Bowen, who have home matches against Southampton and Newcastle.
There are only seven matches in Gameweek 28, which means it's an added boost at Fantrax for Arsenal and Bukayo Saka, home against Crystal Palace as the biggest favorite of the weekend.
It's a reduced Gameweek 28 in the Premier League ahead of the international break, which means it could be a good time to FPL captain a defender like Ben Chilwell or Reece James, who are home against Everton.
Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might return in the next few weeks
Pereira (knee) could return to action in around six weeks, according to Karl Matchett of The Independent.
ANALYSIS
Leicester City could have one key figure back from injury soon, as Pereira has been out since March due to a knee injury that required surgery. The talented right-back is one of the best two-way players in the EPL and his return could represent a huge boost for Leicester defensively, especially with Caglar Soyuncu set to face an extended spell on the sidelines.
