Double Gameweek and Important Games for Teams Fighting for EPL Survival

Round 29 has the biggest double gameweek of the season with 12 teams playing twice. Only Arsenal, Manchester City, Fulham, Everton, Crystal Palace, and Tottenham have single games. Discounted players from single-game clubs may not be worth keeping this late in the season.

Eight teams fighting for survival in the bottom half of the table have hugely important games. Crystal Palace at 12th and Southampton in 20th are separated by only four points. Goalkeepers like Steele, Areola, Chilwell, Estupinan, Shaw, and Felipe are good choices for the double gameweek. Midfielders like Fernandes, Mac Allister, Maddison, Fernandez, Felix, Watkins, and Salah are also good choices.

Brighton & Hove Albion has good double matchups and their players like Mac Allister and Estupinan are worth considering. Ollie Watkins is in form with six goals and an assist in his last eight games. Mohamed Salah is a risk but a player of his quality is hard to ignore over a two-game stretch.
