Double gameweeks always find a way of conjuring up excitement and enthusiasm and provides us with a few outside differentials to punt on.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Luton&#8217;s postponed clash with Burnley has been rescheduled for Tuesday October 3, meaning both newly-promoted sides will stage FPL&#8217;s first double gameweek of the season in GW7.\u00a0Suddenly, two of the weakest sides in the league on paper have double the opportunity to do well.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, just like any old gameweek, there are still a plethora of enticing assets across the rest of the league that cannot be overlooked. The big question of the week is whether Luton and Burnley should be targeted or whether they should be swerved altogether in favour of in-form single gameweek players.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, Mail Sport has provided a detailed preview of GW7, discussing transfer plans, captaincy and chip strategy ahead of the\u00a0Premier League weekend.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/29\/07\/75943411-12563023-Rob_Edwards_side_bagged_their_first_point_of_the_season_against_-a-6_1695969963136.jpg\" height=\"461\" width=\"306\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/29\/07\/75943429-12563023-Meanwhile_Vincent_Kompany_s_men_sit_in_the_relegation_on_one_poi-a-2_1695969963128.jpg\" height=\"461\" width=\"306\"><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s double gameweek time!

Owners have been done dirty: he&#8217;s third in the league for xG this season. But surely now, it&#8217;s time to go.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Perhaps for the first time this season, <span>Bryan Mbeumo<\/span>&#8216;s place in the dream FPL midfield is under threat. The Brentford star has only returned once in his last four gameweeks, while similarly-priced assets <span>Kaoru Mitoma<\/span> and <span>Jarrod Bowen<\/span> are continuing to score.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><span>Erling Haaland<\/span> is so darn good as an FPL pick that he&#8217;s starting to make captaincy pointless. Once again, the Norwegian returned against Nottingham Forest, taking his goal tally to eight from an xG of 7.88 this season, which is considerably higher than any other player in the Premier League.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><span>Bukayo Saka\u00a0<\/span>is a doubt heading into GW7, after Mikel Arteta confirmed he had picked up a knock in the north London derby. The England winger also missed Arsenal&#8217;s 1-0 win over Brentford in the Carabao Cup on Thursday.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>In more injury news, Mauricio Pochettino fears <span>Ben Chilwell <\/span>has picked up a hamstring problem. After two successive benchings and now an injury issue, Chilwell needs to leave our FPL teams sooner rather than later.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Haaland may be FPL&#8217;s new superstar, but don&#8217;t sleep on <span>Mohamed Salah<\/span> for too much longer. The Egyptian is the only player to return in every gameweek so far after his goal against West Ham and, with a glorious run of fixtures from GW9, he&#8217;s worth finding the extra money for.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>If you went for any Newcastle defender last week, you were pretty much rewarded. Trippier showed he was worth the extra money with an 18-point haul, while <span>Sven Botman<\/span> and <span>Dan Burn<\/span> each scored. <span>Fabian Schar<\/span>, while not bagging an attacking return, still brought in clean sheet points and the quartet look like exceptional picks in the short-term with a very nice run of fixtures. Eddie Howe cast doubt over the fitness of Burn and Botman ahead of the weekend, but I still fancy them to start after rests in the cup.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>And bizarrely, every single week, the most popular transfer in has failed to deliver the goods. This week, it was <span>Julian Alvarez<\/span>&#8216;s turn to disappoint managers. I opted to bring in the Argentine for <span>Ollie Watkins<\/span> after initially considering a move from <span>Ben Chilwell<\/span> to<span> Kieran Trippier<\/span>.

In the simplest terms, they have two games compared to one.<\/p>\n<p>The dilemma this week is whether a Luton or Burnley player can score more points in two games than <span>Erling <\/span><span>Haaland <\/span>can in one. In most cases, I&#8217;d say no &#8211; but I do like the look of <span>Carlton <\/span><span>Morris <\/span>this week.<\/p>\n<p>The Hatters have by far the better double gameweek against Everton and Burnley, and Morris has 26 points of Luton&#8217;s 140 so far this season: that equates to almost a fifth.<\/p>\n<p>Luton&#8217;s strategy in attack is to find Morris in goal-scoring positions, and he is also on penalty-taking duties. As Luton&#8217;s talisman, he often hogs bonus points when he scores too.<\/p>\n<p>Morris has averaged 5.2 points a match this season, while Haaland has averaged 8.5. Assuming Morris plays both games, he&#8217;s statistically &#8211; at least on paper &#8211; the best captaincy option this week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But we all know what Haaland can do. If Morris blanks twice &#8211; a feasible scenario given Luton&#8217;s current struggles from open play &#8211; and Haaland nets a hat-trick against Wolves, it&#8217;ll be a tough pill to swallow as a double gameweek punter.<\/p>\n<p>Given Haaland&#8217;s potential and huge ownership, it&#8217;ll take a brave manager to bet against the Norwegian. But I have to say, I&#8217;m very tempted to do so as a current Morris owner.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/29\/07\/75947437-12563023-Striker_Carlton_Morris_is_Luton_s_highest_FPL_scorer_ahead_of_th-a-16_1695969965576.jpg\" height=\"332\" width=\"274\"><\/p>\n<p>Striker Carlton Morris is Luton&#8217;s highest FPL scorer ahead of the double gameweek and could rival Erling Haaland for captaincy\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure there are many of you out there without a single Luton or Burnley player ahead of GW7. I&#8217;ll start off by saying well done: they&#8217;ve mostly been rubbish so far.<\/p>\n<p>But when you log into FPL to change your team on Friday night or Saturday morning, graced with a sea of single gameweek players, you&#8217;ll likely feel your knee jerking as the fear of missing out sets in.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from Luton&#8217;s <span>Carlton Morris<\/span> and Burnley&#8217;s <span>Lyle Foster<\/span>\u00a0&#8211; who is suspended for the double gameweek anyway &#8211; no player from either side has averaged more than three FPL points a match this season. Frankly, the large majority of Burnley and Luton players simply aren&#8217;t good FPL picks.<\/p>\n<p><span>In support of this view, I&#8217;m probably going to bench <span>Marvelous Nakamba <\/span><span>in GW7<\/span><span>\u00a0<\/span>unless Bukayo Saka&#8217;s absence is confirmed against Bournemouth, despite already owning him. I&#8217;m not expecting any more than a couple of two-pointers &#8211; and wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if he picks up the odd yellow card too! Like almost all Luton and Burnley midfielders, he simply doesn&#8217;t offer an attacking threat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The defenders, such as \u00a34.0m\u00a0<span>Issa Kabore<\/span> and <span>Jordan B<span>eyer<\/span><\/span>, are a different story if you&#8217;ve held on to them since GW1. With two bites of the cherry, there&#8217;s every chance Luton or Burnley manage to nick a clean sheet, which is why I&#8217;ll be playing the former in GW7.<\/p>\n<p>Morris is without doubt the best player to target for the double gameweek, having already accrued 26 points in Luton&#8217;s five matches. If the Hatters score, you can be fairly confident Morris will be involved as he&#8217;s central to everything\u00a0they do in attack.<\/p>\n<p>Morris has a goal contribution in every home match he&#8217;s played so far this season, which bodes well for Luton&#8217;s clash with the Clarets at Kenilworth Road.<\/p>\n<p>Also, despite facing Luton at Goodison Park, Everton haven&#8217;t dominated possession in any of their home match this term, suggesting the visitors could have some joy in attack this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>At \u00a35.5m, few players offer better value than Morris this week and he could help free up funds for a future move if downgrading the likes of mid-priced forwards Alvarez, Watkins or Jackson.<\/p>\n<p>After Everton and Burnley, Luton face in-form Tottenham in GW8 and Nottingham Forest in GW9 before a bleak run of difficult fixtures.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll dig into this a little more in the next section, but Morris appears a great pick if you&#8217;re planning on using your Wildcard soon, as you can take him out of your FPL team shortly after the double rather than spending an additional transfer on him.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if you have no plan to play your Wildcard in the upcoming weeks, transferring him in only to ship him out again seems like a wasted move, particularly if you have other fires in your team to put out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, although I&#8217;m somehow heading into GW7 with three Luton players, it&#8217;s not worth ripping your team apart and taking hits for this particular double gameweek. That being said, if you have a luxury move to make, I think Morris has every chance of doing well.<\/p>\n<p><span>Luton fixtures\u00a0<span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW7: Everton (A); Burnley (H)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW8: Tottenham (H)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW9: Nottingham Forest (A)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW10: Aston Villa (A)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW11: Liverpool (H)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW12: Manchester United (A)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Burnley fixtures<span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW7: Newcastle (A); Luton (A)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW8: Chelsea (H)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW9: Brentford (A)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW10: Bournemouth (A)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW11: Crystal Palace (H)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>GW12: Arsenal (A)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/29\/07\/75951209-12563023-image-a-7_1695969963141.jpg\" height=\"429\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth playing Issa Kabore if you have him this week, but he&#8217;s not really worth a transfer in<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/29\/07\/75951213-12563023-Swerving_Burnley_altogether_is_likely_the_wisest_move_despite_th-a-8_1695969963147.jpg\" height=\"427\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Swerving Burnley altogether is likely the wisest move, despite their double gameweek in GW7\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Time&#8217;s up for Chelsea<\/h2>\n<p>For those of you, like me, who hopped aboard the Chelsea train after the Blues&#8217; 3-0 triumph over Luton in GW3,\u00a0 it&#8217;s fair to say we&#8217;ve been short-changed.<\/p>\n<p><span>Ben Chilwell<\/span>, who not long ago was FPL&#8217;s most attractive defender, has returned a mere one point in Chelsea&#8217;s three games since, while <span>Raheem Sterling<\/span> and <span>Nicolas Jackson<\/span>\u00a0have significantly underperformed in terms of expected data.<\/p>\n<p>Jackson&#8217;s finishing, in particular, has bordered on the catastrophic. Despite scoring only once in the Premier League so far, the Chelsea man is bettered only by Haaland and Mbeumo for xG this season.<\/p>\n<p>Somehow, he&#8217;s also managed to pick up five yellow cards in just six matches and thus will be suspended in GW7 against Fulham. Of course, under the usual circumstances, a one-week absence isn&#8217;t the end of the world in FPL, but seeing as the Blues face Burnley, Arsenal, Brentford, Spurs, Manchester City, Newcastle and Brighton in their next seven fixtures, he&#8217;s a certain sell.<\/p>\n<p>If Morris isn&#8217;t to your fancy and you&#8217;d like to put your faith in a better attacker for the long-term, Alvarez remains a solid pick-up despite City&#8217;s mixed bag of fixtures coming up &#8211; and Nottingham Forest&#8217;s <span>Taiwo Awoniyi<\/span> is a shrewd move having only blanked against the champions so far.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s looks as though time&#8217;s also up for <span>Malo Gusto<\/span>, who will miss GW7 and GW8 because of his red card against Aston Villa. That being said, if you brought him in for just \u00a34.0m and can justify him rotting on your bench in pursuit of making better transfer elsewhere, then there&#8217;s no harm in holding on to him for a little while longer.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/29\/07\/75959331-12563023-Nicolas_Jackson_has_significantly_underperformed_in_terms_of_exp-a-9_1695969963152.jpg\" height=\"443\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Nicolas Jackson has significantly underperformed in terms of expected data this campaign<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/29\/07\/75959349-12563023-Selling_Ben_Chilwell_is_now_a_easy_decision_seeing_as_he_is_now_-a-10_1695969963157.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Selling Ben Chilwell is now a easy decision, seeing as he is now a doubt with a hamstring issue<\/p>\n<p>Chilwell, however, is \u00a35.6m and has already endured a price drop this week. Not only has his seemingly lost his place in Mauricio Pochettino&#8217;s line-up long-term, but he is now a fitness doubt with a suspected hamstring injury. With plenty of high-upside defenders in the game right now, he&#8217;s firmly on the FPL chopping block.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned last week, Newcastle&#8217;s defenders should be targeted as a priority. But <span>Matty Cash<\/span>\u00a0is also a nice alternative with Brighton, Wolves, West Ham, Luton, Nottingham Forest and Fulham between now and GW12.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sterling is just about the only Chelsea player I wouldn&#8217;t rush to sell right now. As bad as Chelsea have been, they still have two promising games against Fulham and Burnley before the fixtures turn sour and Sterling is a guaranteed starter under Pochettino. But the clock is ticking&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>Think about your Wildcard carefully\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>The Wildcard is without doubt the most powerful chip in FPL. And it should be treated as such.<\/p>\n<p>Navigating the Premier League&#8217;s ruthlessly busy schedule with just one free transfer every week can be a real challenge, so choosing when to overhaul your squad is extremely important and can define your season.<\/p>\n<p>To reference the board game Monopoly, I essentially used my Wildcard as a &#8216;Get Out of Jail Free&#8217; card when I first started playing FPL: reacting to a crisis when I was inundated with injuries, suspensions or blank fixtures.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s absolutely nothing wrong with this and, in truth, there&#8217;s no perfect time to play your Wildcard. Everyone&#8217;s team is different. But my approach to Wildcarding has changed over the years and significantly improved my rank in years gone by.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/29\/07\/75959365-12563023-Thinking_carefully_about_the_perfect_time_to_use_your_Wildcard_i-a-11_1695969963163.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Thinking carefully about the perfect time to use your Wildcard is worth it&#8217;s weight in gold and can define your season &#8211; you may end up planning weeks ahead just like Pep Guardiola (above)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/29\/07\/75959393-12563023-Liverpool_have_a_superb_run_from_GW9_and_Mohamed_Salah_will_no_d-a-12_1695969963168.jpg\" height=\"493\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Liverpool have a superb run from GW9 &#8211; and Mohamed Salah will no doubt be a popular asset<\/p>\n<p>Reacting to the destructiveness of Harry Kane and Son Heung-min at the start of the 2020-21 season, I took a calculated risk: one I never would have made in my early years of playing FPL. I activated my Wildcard in GW5.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there were several other factors at play that season, but I ended up finishing 118th in the world that season. It allowed me to get on to Emiliano Martinez early, the standout \u00a34.5m goalkeeper, bring in Kane by shifting more money into attack and snap up the best value players on offer.<\/p>\n<p>I took an age over the decision as it was very out of character for me to play my Wildcard that early. But the thorough and methodical approach I took paid dividends in the end.<\/p>\n<p>Wildcarding early that year worked, at least for me. But I&#8217;ve known lots of FPL managers profit from a late Wildcard too.<\/p>\n<p>Wildcards can be used defensively by removing a glut of issues from your team. They can also be used offensively: targeting an upcoming fixture run and tripling-up on the likes of Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal when they head into an easy spell.
