GAME WEEK 24 looks set to be an intriguing one with the Carabao Cup final, FA Cup fifth round fixtures, and midweek Premier League games on top of the usual weekend action.
12 teams are set to pull double duty in Game Week 24 which means it could be a high-scoring one.
Before we suggest three players with the potential to cash in, here’s the fixture list for each club this coming Game Week.
ARSENAL: Leicester (a), Everton (h)
MANCHESTER CITY: Bournemouth (a), Bristol City (a)
MANCHESTER UNITED: Newcastle (n), West Ham (h)
TOTTENHAM: Chelsea (h), Sheffield United (a)
NEWCASTLE: Man United (n)
FULHAM: Wolves (h), Leeds (h)
BRIGHTON: Stoke (a)
LIVERPOOL: Crystal Palace (a), Wolves (h)
BRENTFORD: N/A
CHELSEA: Tottenham (a)
ASTON VILLA: Everton (a)
CRYSTAL PALACE: Liverpool (h)
NOTTINGHAM FOREST: West Ham (a)
LEICESTER: Arsenal (h), Blackburn (h)
WOLVES: Fulham (a), Liverpool (a)
EVERTON: Aston Villa (h), Arsenal (a)
BOURNEMOUTH: Man City (h)
WEST HAM: Nottingham Forest (h), Man United (a)
LEEDS: Southampton (h), Fulham (a)
SOUTHAMPTON: Leeds (a), Grimsby (h)
The first thing to note there is that Thomas Frank’s Bees will have their feet up in the next week – they’re not in action again until March 6th – so Ivan Toney’s (£5.7m) owners will either have to grin and bear it or take action.
Man City’s alliterative double of Bournemouth and Bristol City looks ripe for points but it’s not easy to identify a player who is likely to start both fixtures, such is the nature of Pep Guardiola’s rotation policy.
Manuel Akanji (£3.6m) or Nathan Ake (£4m) could feasibly play a part in both games which would be enough for a double-digit haul if the defending Premier League champions keep their sheets clean.
In attack, Jack Grealish (£4.1m) is very much in favour at the moment and playing his best football in a blue shirt.
Elsewhere, there’s something very tempting about Darwin Nunez (£4.9m) right now.
Liverpool may have imploded against Real Madrid in midweek but their front three have produced plentiful returns across their last three fixtures with the Uruguay international contributing 18 points in the next last two Game Weeks.

Leicester pack a punch going forward but they’re vulnerable at the back and will be wary of an Arsenal side coming off the back of a spirited 4-2 win at Villa Park – only Bournemouth have conceded more goals than the Foxes at this stage of the campaign.
