<h2>What does the FPL schedule look like for the rest of the season?</h2>
<p>The final double gameweek of the season will see Manchester City and Crystal Palace play twice this week, as predicted by our fixtures expert <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/ben-crellin-fantasy-premier-league-team-reveal">Ben Crellin</a>, while Arsenal and Brighton both rank well for their single gameweek fixtures.</p>
<p>The double is as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Manchester City:</strong> Brentford (H) and Crystal Palace (H)</li>
<li><strong>Crystal Palace: </strong>Everton (H) and Manchester City (a)</li>
</ul>
<p>Loading up on City players &#8211; if you haven&#8217;t already &#8211; makes a lot of sense.</p>
<p>The case for Palace assets is less clear though, as they only rank fifth on the Hub&#8217;s <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fixture-ticker">fixture ticker</a> and could rotate amid their Europa Conference League campaign.</p>
<p><strong>Ismaila Sarr </strong>and <strong>Daniel Munoz</strong> have both been rested in recent games.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Oliver Glasner appears to be happy giving his Eagles squad some time off following the semi-final second leg.</p>
<p>When you also factor in City away being their extra game, it&#8217;s not the strongest double gameweek opportunity in reality.</p>

<h2>FPL Double Gameweek 36 tips: Predicted points and captaincy picks</h2>
<p><strong>Erling Haaland </strong>is comfortably top of the <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI</a> predicted points chart this week, ahead of teammate <strong>Nico O&#8217;Reilly </strong>in second.</p>
<p>In fact, nine of the top ten this week are Manchester City players, with <strong>Rayan Cherki </strong>and <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/haulers-howlers-heartbreakers-and-hidden-highlights-of-gameweek-35/">last gameweek&#8217;s star-man <strong>Jeremy Doku</strong></a> potentially offering alternative routes for those looking to gamble and gain ground on those backing Haaland and O&#8217;Reilly.</p>
<ul>

</ul>
<p>The only non-City asset to make the top ten is Crystal Palace defender <strong>Maxence Lacroix</strong>, who has performed exceptionally for defensive contribution points this season &#8211; only <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-defcon-points-watch/">two players</a> have accumulated more.</p>
<div id="attachment_76898" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-76898" class="size-full wp-image-76898" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/GettyImages-2245984679.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/GettyImages-2245984679.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/GettyImages-2245984679-300x200.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/GettyImages-2245984679-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><p id="caption-attachment-76898" class="wp-caption-text">Maxence Lacroix.

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/best-fpl-captain-for-double-gameweek-36/">Captaincy</a> guru Chris Tan highlighted Haaland as the &#8216;safe&#8217; bet, but for those chasing their mini-league rivals he agrees that taking a punt with the armband is a reasonable option.</p>
<p>Haaland is only in moderate form by his own sky-high standards right now, but it&#8217;s safe to assume he will be backed by the majority for this tantalising double.</p>

<h2>FPL Double Gameweek 36 tips: Transfer targets</h2>
<p>Brighton arguably have the standout fixture of Gameweek 35, hosting relegated Wolves.</p>
<p>Rob Edwards&#8217; side have been loose and inconsistent at times in recent gameweeks, with nothing to play for and plenty of Wolves&#8217; squad players picking up minutes.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>🤖 </strong><a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/my-team/transfers"><strong>Your recommended transfers for Double Gameweek 36</strong></a><strong> 🤖</strong></p>
<p><strong>Danny Welbeck </strong>is fancied in our <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-double-gameweek-36-top-5-players-to-target-opposition-weaknesses/">fixtures analysis</a> thanks to a strong match-up, while goalscoring Seagulls midfielder <strong>Jack Hinshelwood </strong>features in this week&#8217;s <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/best-fpl-differentials-for-double-gameweek-36/">differentials</a>.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Arsenal meanwhile have plenty of assets to select from in their title charge, with <strong>Bukayo Saka </strong>making a timely return while <strong>Viktor Gyokeres </strong>hits a rich vein of form</p>
<p>The Gunners rank second in the Hub&#8217;s <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fixture-ticker">fixture ticker</a> up to the end of the season and their games are of course must-win too, with the majority of FPL managers already owning a couple of defensive assets from Mikel Arteta&#8217;s side.</p>
<div id="attachment_74163" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-74163" class="size-full wp-image-74163" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Saka-Arsenal-home.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="682" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Saka-Arsenal-home.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Saka-Arsenal-home-300x200.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Saka-Arsenal-home-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><p id="caption-attachment-74163" class="wp-caption-text">Bukayo Saka.

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Rayan Cherki </strong>is once again the most bought player however, with his minutes now looking far more secure in Pep Guardiola&#8217;s City team.</p>
<p>The Frenchman is racking up goal contributions at an impressive rate, with 16 attacking returns in just 18 Premier League starts.</p>
<div id="attachment_76531" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-76531" class="wp-image-76531 size-full" src="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/GettyImages-2251814268.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="749" srcset="https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/GettyImages-2251814268.jpg 1024w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/GettyImages-2251814268-300x219.jpg 300w, https://cms.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/GettyImages-2251814268-768x562.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><p id="caption-attachment-76531" class="wp-caption-text">Rayan Cherki.
