<h2 class="p1">Sky Sports Fantasy Football Gameweek 20/21 preview</h2>
Gameweeks 20 and 21 sees us through to the Overhaul, so hopefully you have already looked through the fixtures and have the best captain for each day. 
There are just 10 captaincy days left. I’m trying to not make anymore non-essential moves and save my transfers to really attack the second half of the season. 
The festive season is pretty hectic and that’s why I’ll cover us off until January 2 and then we can look at an Overhaul team and January’s fixtures after this side of the overhaul is done with. 
The 10 game days can be covered off by Brighton, Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City, Aston Villa and probably the most unappealing game day is Wolves v Chelsea on Christmas Eve. 
Most managers will have players from these teams, so there's no real issues there.

<h3>Villa single to start</h3>
The action starts on Friday (December 22) with Villa v Sheffield United. 
Ollie Watkins (£9.3m) is having a great season. He’s the fourth-highest scoring player in Sky with 112 points and nine goals and nine assists in 17 starts.
 His ownership is 92.4% in the top 1,000, so this Friday doesn’t need thinking twice about.

<h3>Saturday options</h3>
Saturday has a few options, Spurs v Everton, Liverpool v Arsenal and Luton v Newcastle are the main games for me. 
Son Heung-min (£9.7m) is 79.7% owned in the top 1,000 - although Everton have been in great form, winning their last four games. 
Maybe Cristian Romero (£7.9m) is an option? He should be on for passing bonus and a clean sheet as long as he doesn’t get himself sent off. 
Liverpool face Arsenal in a top-of-the-table clash. Mohamed Salah (£11.5m) is 98.3% owned and Buyako Saka (£10.4m) is in 53.9% of the top teams.  
The latter has just one goal and four assists in his last nine games. That’s 40 points, which averages out at 4.4 points per game in the last nine - not enough for me given his price. 
Kieran Trippier (£9.1m) is back from his one-match ban for Newcastle. He’s still in 19.5% of teams, so plenty held on to him last weekend.

<h3>Christmas Eve single</h3>
Christmas Eve is Wolves v Chelsea. Cole Palmer (£6.5m) - as mentioned more than a few times - is a great option at the price. 
He now has six goals and three assists and is in 55.9% of the top 1,000 teams - this means most people will already have a captain in place, so won’t need to make a transfer. 
Hwang Hee-chan (£7.3m) is also popular, being in 19.2% of teams so again most already have someone in place.

<h3>Post-Christmas fixtures and a Haaland dilemma</h3>
The pick of the games on Tuesday, December 26 are Burnley v Liverpool, Newcastle v Nottingham Forest and Manchester United v Aston Villa. 
I suspect Salah, Trent Alexander Arnold (£10.0m) and Virgil van Dijk (£9.9m) will be the main options or even Watkins or Kieran Trippier.
Chelsea play Crystal Palace the next day, while it's also Everton v Manchester City. The return of Pep Guardiola’s side after the Club World Cup and perhaps the return of Erling Haaland (£12.0m) will provide a dilemma for many managers. 
Haaland’s top 1,000 ownership has dropped to 16.9%, so if he starts against Everton I’d expect this to rise considerably.
<div id="attachment_60275" style="width: 907px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-60275" class="size-full wp-image-60275" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Haaland.jpg" alt="Erling Haaland" width="897" height="731" />

Thursday, December 28 brings Brighton v Spurs and Arsenal v West Ham. The popular assets will be Son, Lewis Dunk (£8.3m), Saka, William Saliba (£9.0m) and Jarrod Bowen (£8.8m).
Haaland and Watkins will again be the key options on Saturday, December 30, with City hosting Sheffield United and Villa at home to Burnley.
New Year's Eve will be a choice between Arsenal and Spurs options for most or even Dominic Solanke (£7.8m).
And then on New Year's Day, a Liverpool option for their home match against Newcastle will do for captaincy.
The last game before the Overhaul is West Ham v Brighton. Bowen or Dunk will do here, providing Dunk doesn't end up suspended for picking up too many yellow cards. Many have Pascal Gross (£8.2m) instead.
As a result of all the above, I don’t see the benefit of making many moves before the Overhaul. There isn’t enough of a fixture swing to make me consider anything. 
The only moves I’d make now are for injured or suspended players. I don’t have Haaland, so he would be the one I’d bring in.

<h2>Sky bonus points</h2>
Below is the bonus points from last week's action. It's no surprise to see Rodri (£9.4m) again with double bonus. He’s definitely one for me post-Overhaul.
