See the dream line-up for the reduced round of matches, featuring a combined total of seven players from Arsenal, Spurs and West Ham
Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United supply a combined SEVEN of the best team for Blank Gameweek 34 (BGW34) in Fantasy Premier League.
SIX teams have no Premier League fixture this weekend – giving them a BGW34 – because they played twice in Double Gameweek 33 (DGW33) instead. Players from the following clubs will therefore score zero points – AFC Bournemouth, Brighton & Hove Albion, Burnley, Chelsea, Leeds United and Manchester City.
BGW34 schedule
Sunderland v Nott’m Forest
Fulham v Aston Villa
Liverpool v Crystal Palace
West Ham v Everton
Wolves v Spurs
Arsenal v Newcastle
Man Utd v Brentford
In a Gameweek where many managers are playing their Free Hit chip to navigate the reduced round of fixtures, there’s a triple-up on Arsenal for their home match against Newcastle United on Saturday evening.
Goalkeeper David Raya (£6.0m) and centre-back Gabriel (£7.1m) are joined by attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze (£7.2m) as the Gunners look to boost their goal difference in their battle for the title with Manchester City.
Spurs and West Ham are also backed at both ends of the pitch as they each seek to avoid relegation.
Spurs’ Pedro Porro (£5.1m) and Dominic Solanke (£7.2m) visit relegated Wolverhampton Wanderers, while the Hammers’ Konstantinos Mavropanos (£4.4m) and Jarrod Bowen (£7.7m) are at home to Everton.
If you are using your Free Hit chip then you could pick this very line-up! Remember, you can only use one chip in each Gameweek.
Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes (£10.3m) is handed the armband as the Red Devils host Brentford, with Gabriel named as vice-captain.
David Raya (Arsenal) £6.0m
Arsenal’s goalkeeper has the chance to claim his 16th clean sheet of the season this weekend and move three ahead of his nearest rival for the Golden Glove, Gianluigi Donnarumma (£5.6m), as his Manchester City counterpart doesn’t have a match in BGW34. Over their last four contestes, Raya’s visitors Newcastle have had just six big chances – situations where a player is expected to score – which is the second-worst record in the league.
Gabriel (Arsenal) £7.1m
The Brazilian has blanked just twice in his 12 starts at Emirates Stadium in 2025/26 Fantasy, combining a goal and two assists with eight clean sheets, eight defensive contribution points and 12 bonus points. Gabriel was a big success in the reverse fixture in Gameweek 6, scoring and earning 13 points in a 2-1 win for Arsenal.
Pedro Porro (Spurs) £5.1m
The full-back’s potential at both ends of the pitch makes him a great pick for managers on a Free Hit chip against Wolves, as Spurs’ schedule toughens afterwards. Porro scored his first goal of 2025/26 against Brighton & Hove Albion to collect 10 points last weekend, while his four shots in the box rank second for Spurs over Roberto De Zerbi’s two matches in charge.
Konstantinos Mavropanos (West Ham) £4.4m
West Ham’s centre-back is the top-scoring player in Fantasy in his last four matches, amassing a bumper 42 points thanks to three goals, two clean sheets, four defensive contribution points and five bonus points. Mavropanos’ threat at free-kicks and corners can take advantage of an Everton side who have conceded 25 shots from set-pieces over their last four matches, the third-most in the league.
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) £14.0m
Liverpool’s Egyptian is a strong option for those on Free Hit with plenty of cash to spare after temporarily selling Erling Haaland (£14.5m). Salah hosts Crystal Palace having scored in each of his last three starts, totalling 27 points across those contests.
Bruno Fernandes (Man Utd) £10.3m
The Portuguese’s output at Old Trafford under Michael Carrick is likely to make the captaincy decision an easy one for millions of Fantasy managers. Fernandes has amassed 57 points across his six home matches under the head coach, with two goals, seven assists, five double-figure hauls and no blanks.
Eberechi Eze (Arsenal) £7.2m
With Man City and Arsenal now identical for points and goal difference at the top of the table, the title race could be decided by the number of goals scored, and Pep Guardiola’s side currently have the advantage. Eze’s influence at could prove crucial against Newcastle as the Gunners go on the attack – in home matches this season, his average of 7.0 points per start is just behind the 7.1 of Gabriel, while he has been involved in 41 per cent of their goals, more than any of their regular starters.
Harry Wilson (Fulham) £6.0m
Fulham’s Welshman is one of the most consistent players in home matches this season ahead of his match against Aston Villa. Wilson has scored eight goals and assisted three more in 14 starts at Craven Cottage, blanking on only five occasions.
Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa) £8.7m
The Aston Villa star is the most-bought player in the Gameweek as managers seek out a replacement for Chelsea’s Joao Pedro (£7.7m), who missed both their Double Gameweek 33 matches through injury. Six goals and an assist over his last five matches in all competitions have earned Watkins 432,000+ transfers in, with Villa then facing Spurs and Burnley in Gameweeks 35-36 in a great short-term schedule.
Jarrod Bowen (West Ham) £7.7m
West Ham’s talisman entertains Everton in his most consistent – and explosive – home form of the campaign. Across the Hammers’ last five matches at London Stadium, Bowen has been involved in seven of their nine goals, scoring one and assisting a further six. He amassed 41 points in those contests, including his season-high haul of 14 points against Wolves in West Ham’s previous home match, in Gameweek 32.
Dominic Solanke (Spurs) £7.2m
Despite blanking in both matches under De Zerbi, Solanke’s six shots in the box are more than any other Spurs player. Wolves’ defensive data shows just why they succumbed to relegation earlier this week – they have conceded 23 big chances across their last four contests, at least 10 more than any other side.
