      Dream Team gaffers to target additional FA Cup fixtures in Gameweek 21 – just six teams without double duty

      by

      GAMEWEEK 20 rumbles on with four fixtures left to fulfil but it’s certainly not too early for Dream Team managers to start thinking about Gameweek 21.As always, gaffers should give the schedule due consideration when when formulating their plans.
      Gameweek 21 will feature nine relevant FA Cup fourth round games before a full allotment of Premier League fixtures in midweek.
      It may be the case that some managers opt to rotate their starting line-ups between competitions but Dream Team bosses should still be able to identify plenty of players set to play at least 120 minutes this upcoming Gameweek.
      Bukayo Saka and Jarrod Bowen are among the popular players without two fixtures in GW21Credit: Dream Team
      GAMEWEEK 21 – FA CUP FOURTH ROUND FIXTURES

      Bristol City v Nottingham Forest
      Chelsea v Aston Villa
      Tottenham v Manchester City
      Everton v Luton
      Sheffield United v Brighton
      Fulham v Newcastle
      West Brom v Wolves
      Liverpool v Norwich
      Newport v Manchester United

      GAMEWEEK 21 – PREMIER LEAGUE FIXTURES

      Nottingham Forest v Arsenal
      Fulham v Everton
      Luton v Brighton
      Crystal Palace v Sheffield United
      Aston Villa v Newcastle
      Manchester City v Burnley
      Tottenham v Brentford
      Liverpool v Chelsea
      West Ham v Bournemouth
      Wolves v Manchester United

      It’s worth noting that Bournemouth’s FA Cup fourth round meeting with Swansea falls within the current Gameweek due to a scheduling quirk.
      All this means 14 of the 20 top flight clubs are set to pull double duty in Gameweek 21.
      Most read in Dream Team
      The six clubs with just one fixture at their disposal are as follows:

      Arsenal
      Brentford
      West Ham
      Burnley
      Crystal Palace
      Bournemouth

      Naturally, the Gunners stand out from that list as Bukayo Saka (£5.9m), William Saliba (£3.4m) and Martin Odegaard (£4.6m) are among the top ten most-popular players in the game with the former topping the tree outright.
      Arsenal have been eliminated from both domestic cupsCredit: Getty
      James Ward-Prowse (£3.9m) and Jarrod Bowen (£5.6m) are both widely-selected as well.
      This does not mean Dream Team managers should necessarily rush to ditch the aforementioned stars.
      Mikel Arteta’s side host Nottingham Forest in Gameweek 21 having addressed their recent form with an emphatic 5-0 win over the Eagles, while the Hammers welcome the Cherries to East London.
      However, gaffers would be wise to ensure they have suitable representation in the FA Cup fourth round if they are to bank a competitive points total this coming Gameweek.
      In terms of which teams to potentially target, Liverpool’s double header of Norwich and Chelsea looks favourable as both games will be held at Anfield – the Reds boast an imperious home record this season.
      Brighton players will be popular recruits this week too with the Seagulls due to face Sheffield United then Luton.
      Even accounting for consecutive away days, the likes of Joao Pedro (£3.8m), Pascal Gross (£4.2m) and Pervis Estupinan (£3.2m) are expected to provide healthy returns.
      A popular man in Dream Team this weekCredit: AP
      Vitaliy Mykolenko (£3.5m), James Tarkowski (£3m) and company will fancy their chances of adding to their extensive clean sheet collection with Luton and Fulham to come in Gameweek 21.
      And of course, Manchester City assets are once again in the spotlight with Kevin De Bruyne (£6.4m) by far and away the most-popular recruit ahead of the deadline as it stands.
      READ MORE SUN STORIES
      Pep Guardiola’s troops travel to Spurs on Friday night in what has been something of a bogey fixture for the decorated tactician in recent years but that’s offset with a favourable league game against Burnley at the Etihad five days later.
      The deadline for Gameweek 21 is 6:45pm this Friday.

      Blackpool vs Nottingham Forest FA Cup replay PAUSED as medics rush to emergency in crowd and players call for help

      by

      BLACKPOOL and Nottingham Forest’s FA Cup clash was temporarily halted in extra-time due to a medical emergency before Chris Wood spared the Premier League side’s blushes.With the scores locked at 2-2 on the stroke of the break in the additional 30 minutes, the referee blew early after an incident in the away end.

      Players saw the calls for help from supporters in the visiting section and notified the official, who opted to call time on the first period a few seconds early.
      Club medics raced over to the stands to attend to the ill supporter as the players headed towards the dug-outs on the opposite side of the pitch.
      Play restarted after a short delay as the team medics heading back to their respective benches, while applause could be heard moments later from the Forest fans as the ill individual was presumably taken away for further assistance.
      That came after Forest’s week of woe had continued as they were pegged back by plucky Blackpool in normal time – forcing the unwanted extra-time – before Wood eventually gave Forest fans something to smile about.
      READ MORE ON FOOTBALL
      Nuno Espirito Santo’s men were told on Monday they are facing a points deduction for failing to meet the Prem’s financial guidelines.
      They looked to be giving their fans something to smile about at Bloomfield Road as Andrew Omobamidele and Danilo put them firmly in charge.
      But the League One outfit staged a spirited late fightback to take the third round replay to extra time.
      Visiting fans would have made the trip to the seaside with some trepidation – as their team were knocked out here last season.
      Most read in FA Cup

      They feared a repeat in the original tie 10 days ago – as they slipped two goals behind before coming back to force a replay themselves.  
      All the ingredients seemed to be here for an upset with Forest missing six players due to the African Cup of Nations.
      The Seasiders have won nine of their last 10 home games in the league and it was a freezing night on the Fylde Coast, which nobody would have relished.
      Yet Forest settled well and almost took an early lead as Murillo’s low header was clawed away by Daniel Grimshaw.
      Nuno’s men were ahead in the 16th minute as Ryan Yates flicked on a corner at the near post.
      Republic of Ireland defender Andrew Omobamidele arrived at the back stick to sweep home and mark his first start for the club with a goal.
      The £11 million signing picked up a shirt with a message for team-mate Cheikhou Kouyate – who is away with Senegal at AFCON but mourning the death of his father.
      The visitors were firmly in control all half and emerged after the break determined to finish the tie off.
      Albie Morgan’s back pass put Grimshaw in trouble and Dominguez got his toe in first,with the keeper getting injured in the process.
      Danilo was on hand to stroke home despite a valiant last ditch effort from Ekpiteta to keep it out on the line.

      Grimshaw tried to continue but was forced off minutes later with Richard O’Donnell replacing him between the sticks.
      It seemed to all be going wrong for the Seasiders – but then on the hour they suddenly had a lifeline.
      Morgan made amends for his earlier error when Murillo failed to clear his lines for the visitors.
      The former Charlton midfielder took it down and thumped home a rising shot from the edge of the box in emphatic style – and suddenly the League One side were back in it.
      A triple sub made by Critchley gave his team some extra energy and belief and one of them Kyle Joseph came up with the equaliser seven minutes later.
      Andy Lyons hung up a swirling cross from the left which nobody from Forest seemed to fancy but Scotland Under 21 forward Joseph did – nodding in at the back post.
      In 10 minutes of added time, Karamoko Dembele went round the keeper and looked certain to complete a famous win – but Orel Mangala got back to clear off the line before the drama would unfold in the stand in extra-time.
      O’Donnell saved well to deny Danilo early in the first period of extra time and the game looked to be drifting towards penalties *
      READ MORE SUN STORIES
      But early in the second period, after a smart Domingues pass, Ryan Yates fired a low ball across the face of goal and Wood was there to turn in seconds after the delay.
      A fourth round trip to Bristol City, the conquerors of West Ham, is hardly likely to solve all the financial worries at the City Ground – but it can’t hurt.
