With only three more gameweeks to go, let&#8217;s find out what&#8217;s in store for us this round.<\/p>\n<h2>Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 36+ Picks<\/h2>\n<h3>Quick Tips<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/manchester-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manchester City<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/arsenal\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Arsenal<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/manchester-united\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manchester United<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/chelsea\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chelsea<\/a> have FA Cup semifinals coming up. Chelsea players will get a bit more time than the others before that match. However, all the players from these four teams are at risk of being rested ahead of those crucial semifinals.<\/p>\n<h3>Goalkeepers<\/h3>\n<p>It is very hard to pick a goalkeeper certain to keep a clean sheet this week. Nick Pope and Alex McCarthy seem to be decent options. <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/9328b835\/Lukasz-Fabianski?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lukasz Fabianski<\/a> is another one to keep in mind. If one can spare a Manchester City slot, Ederson is a good bet too. Kepa Arrizabalaga might keep a clean sheet as well against Norwich City.<\/p>\n<p>Emiliano Mart\u00ednez could be one for the brave. The Argentine might make a lot of saves against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/liverpool\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Liverpool.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Defenders<\/h3>\n<p>Lucas Digne had a day to forget last round. However, the Frenchman tends to do well at home as he can attack the opposition defence at will down the left flank. Assist is very much possible against an <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/aston-villa-club-news-analysis-fixtures\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Aston Villa<\/a> side desperate for the three points.<\/p>\n<p>Trent Alexaner-Arnold caused a lot of problems against Arsenal in the recent fixtures. However, he has not looked as sharp in the last three or four games. He was rested in the last game as well. However, the threat is definitely there against a shaky Arsenal defence.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea players should be considered strongly even though their clean sheet record is really poor. C\u00e9sar Azpilicueta is a great option.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/9e525177\/Aaron-Wan-Bissaka?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Aaron Wan-Bissaka<\/a> is a decent option back at his old side. Crystal Palace look disinterested at this moment.<\/p>\n<h3>Midfielders<\/h3>\n<p>Willian and Christian Pulisic are the ones to have this week. They should both start and do well against an already relegated <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/norwich-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Norwich City<\/a> side.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=507c7bdf,9227838e&amp;search=Bruno+Fernandes&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bruno Fernandes<\/a> and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/8b788c01\/Anthony-Martial?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Anthony Martial\u00a0<\/a>are great options once again. Manchester United will need to win to keep their champions league hopes alive.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester City have a great fixture this week. However, the FA cup match will surely mean Pep Guardiola will make a host of changes. This might mean nothing to the result but it is a lottery to predict who is going to start for City this round. David Silva and Phil Foden seem to have more chances to start as they were rested last round.<\/p>\n<p>Four-goal hero Michael Antonio has another good game to get some points in. He is at home to fellow strugglers Watford. Both sides will try to win so this could be an entertaining game.<\/p>\n<h3>Strikers<\/h3>\n<p>Gabriel Jesus should do well if given the start. He has been taken off after around 60 minutes regularly so might get the same treatment this round also.<\/p>\n<p>Jamie Vardy will try to add to his tally to make sure of the golden boot. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/leicester-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Leicester City<\/a> were woeful in the last round and one would expect them to bounce back.<\/p>\n<p>Danny Ings is in the chasing pack for the golden boot and he has a decent home fixture against <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/brighton-hove-albion\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brighton &amp; Hove Albion<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood could do well against a leaky <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/crystal-palace\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Crystal Palace<\/a> defence.<\/p>\n<p>It is difficult to predict who will start between Tammy Abraham and Olivier Giroud. Whoever gets the nod should do well.<\/p>\n<h3>Fantasy Premier League Captaincy Picks<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=507c7bdf,9227838e&amp;search=Bruno+Fernandes&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bruno Fernandes<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/8b788c01\/Anthony-Martial?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Anthony Martial<\/a>, David Silva and Willian<\/p>\n<h3>Fantasy Premier League Top Picks<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=507c7bdf,9227838e&amp;search=Bruno+Fernandes&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bruno Fernandes<\/a>\u00a0(\u00a39.0)<\/li>\n<li>Willian (\u00a37.4)<\/li>\n<li>Christian Pulisic (\u00a37.3)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/8b788c01\/Anthony-Martial?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Anthony Martial<\/a> (\u00a38.4)<\/li>\n<li>Danny Ings (\u00a37.5)<\/li>\n<li>David Silva (\u00a37.3)<\/li>\n<li>C\u00e9sar Azpilicueta (\u00a36.1)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/ac05f970\/Michail-Antonio?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Michail Antonio<\/a> (\u00a37.0)<\/li>\n<li>Gabriel Jesus (\u00a39.8)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/45963054\/Jamie-Vardy?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jamie Vardy<\/a> (\u00a39.8)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"ujj5RBg6Rql1eCt2oBQ6ZQ\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1226274244\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'ujj5RBg6Rql1eCt2oBQ6ZQ',sig:'_Lqxw9x0ix4pw0p4cSU8wpCV5wEnhEsThg1fxc0He9w=',w:'594px',h:'393px',items:'1226274244',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 36+ starts later today as the Premier League action continues.
