<h2>What does the FPL schedule look like for the rest of the season?</h2>
Tuesday&#8217;s <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fpl-blank-double-gameweek-guide?utm_source=CleverTap&amp;utm_medium=EmailNewsletter2526-PAID&amp;utm_campaign=Fixtures">Double Gameweek 36</a> announcement was a major milestone, as it meant the schedule for the rest of the season was set.
Manchester City and Crystal Palace will play twice that week, as had been predicted by our fixtures expert <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/ben-crellin-fantasy-premier-league-team-reveal">Ben Crellin</a>.
Their fixtures will be as follows:
<ul>
<li>Manchester City: Brentford (H) and Crystal Palace (H)</li>
<li>Crystal Palace: Everton (H) and Manchester City (A)</li>
</ul>
Loading up on City players &#8211; if you&#8217;re not already &#8211; makes a lot of sense.
The case for maxing out on Palace is less clear though.
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. Ismaila Sarr for example has been rested in recent games.
The Eagles&#8217; semi-final first leg was held on Thursday, with the second leg ahead of Gameweek 36.
And when you factor in City (A) being the extra game, it may mean many managers limit how many Palace picks they buy.

<h2>FPL Gameweek 35 tips: Time to Wildcard?</h2>
🤖 <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/my-team/pick">Optimise your team for FPL Gameweek 35</a>🤖
With the final pieces of the fixture schedule puzzle in place, now&#8217;s the time to plan for any remaining chips you have.
If you didn&#8217;t Wildcard early in the second half of the season or in Gameweek 32, chances are the Gameweek 35 Wildcard is the way to go.
Tripling up on Manchester City and Arsenal is a solid base &#8211; and Hub AI currently thinks it&#8217;s worth wildcarders doing the same for Palace players.

<h2>FPL Gameweek 35 tips: Predicted points and captaincy picks</h2>
Erling Haaland returns to the top of the <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/predictions">Hub AI</a> predicted points chart this week, ahead of Gabriel and Igor Thiago.
While Bruno Fernandes has been a reliable captain of late, he only ranks fifth with Liverpool (H) up next.
Captaincy guru Chris Tan highlighted Haaland as the &#8216;safe&#8217; bet but said for those chasing their mini-league rivals, going different is an option.
The difficulty is finding the best alternative. Chris likes Nico O&#8217;Reilly for his all-round points potential &#8211; but expect the masses to back Haaland and Fernandes.

<h2>FPL Gameweek 35 tips: Transfer targets</h2>
🤖 <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/my-team/transfers">Your recommended transfers for Gameweek 35</a> 🤖
Leeds have the standout fixture of Gameweek 35, hosting Burnley.
The Clarets have parted company with Scott Parker after their relegation was confirmed, with interim coach Michael Jackson taking charge.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin is among the popular transfer targets ahead of the deadline, with Leeds topping the Hub&#8217;s <a href="https://www.fantasyfootballhub.co.uk/fixture-ticker">fixture ticker</a> up to the end of the season.
Rayan Cherki is the most bought player however, with his starts looking secure in Pep Guardiola&#8217;s City team.
Form man Morgan Gibbs-White has been brought into plenty of FPL teams too.
The Nottingham Forest midfielder has been crucial in dragging them towards Premier League safety, scoring a massive 33 points over the last two gameweeks.
