Fantasy Premier League 2021/22 Gameweek 20 Preview

Fantasy Premier League 2021/22 Gameweek 20

Fantasy Premier League 2021/22 gameweek 20 starts this Tuesday as the plethora of Premier League football continues. Covid is still causing havoc with the fixtures and two matches have already been postponed for this upcoming gameweek. Let’s hope the rest of the matches will take place. Read on to find out more about this gameweek.

Fantasy Premier League 2021/22 Gameweek 20 Picks

A Rapid Turnaround

Most teams will have to play twice in 48-60 hours. So, player rotation becomes essential. With many players missing out with Covid as well, things have become highly problematic for the managers. As always, the advice is to wait till confirmed news is available regarding fixtures and team news. The Arsenal v Wolves and Aston Villa v Leeds United fixtures have already been postponed.

Fantasy Premier League 2021/22 Gameweek 20: Fixtures to Target

Manchester United v Burnley

Burnley fans will desperately hope for this match to take place. Unfortunately, fixtures involving the clarets keep getting postponed. In fact, they last played in gameweek 16. Manchester United will definitely go into this fixture as heavy favourites. Cristiano Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandes, David De Gea, Diogo Dalot, Alex Telles and Marcus Rashford are all good options. However, one should wait for team news before selecting any of them to make sure they are available.

Leicester City v Liverpool

A look at the Premier League table shows that Leicester City have conceded a lot of goals this season. However, things have deteriorated quite rapidly in recent weeks. The foxes have leaked 15 goals in their last five matches in the Premier League.

Worryingly, Brendan Rodgers will miss many key defensive players for this game. Ricardo Pereira, Çaglar Söyüncü, Jonny Evans, Patson Daka, Harvey Barnes, Danny Ward, Ryan Bertrand, James Justin and Wesley Fofana are all likely to miss out from this game. Things look rather ominous for Brendan Rodgers’ men as they face a well-rested Liverpool this gameweek. Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota and Trent Alexander-Arnold are great picks as always. One could take a punt on Kostas Tsimikas, t00, who will probably replace the suspended Andrew Robertson.

Fantasy Premier League 2021/22 Gameweek 20: Other Things to Consider

Manchester City are in sensational form and will fancy themselves to score a few goals at Brentford. They conceded three against Leicester on Boxing day much to Pep Guardiola’s displeasure. You would expect a much more solid performance this time around. Joao Cancelo is a season-keeper and should do well. The attackers are all good picks, but as always, the threat of the Pep-roulette remains. Phil Foden and Jack Grealish might get a chance in this game.

Captaincy Options

Cristiano Ronaldo, Mohamed Salah and Diogo Jota are all decent options for the armband this week.
