How to navigate double gameweeks - FPL tips & team of week

Double gameweek season has arrived in Fantasy Premier League and it starts with a simple two-team one in gameweek 32.

It means a lot of FPL players will have similar teams - or at least similar players who double - but there are still plenty of questions to ponder.

Should I bench boost? Should I play the Triple Captain chip? And which Crystal Palace and Newcastle players are the best picks?

Our team of the week should help you with a few of those dilemmas.

Expert FPL Heisenberg was a special guest on the BBC Sport website for a FPL question and answer session - see what he had to say before gameweek 32.

The next few weeks look like this:

Gameweek 32 - double gameweek for Newcastle and Crystal Palace

Gameweek 33 - double gameweek for Manchester City, Aston Villa, Arsenal and Crystal Palace

Gameweek 34 - blank gameweek for Manchester City, Aston Villa, Arsenal and Crystal Palace

Gameweek 35 - normal gameweek

And we know the FA Cup final might bring more doubles in 36 and blanks in 37.

You've got a massive chance for big points, especially if you've kept a few of your chips back.

A bench boost would work this week or next. It's obviously team dependant and I'd plan out your squad for both weeks and decide which one feels the most exciting. You're not going to get a full squad of players going twice in either week, so a lot will depend on your single gameweek players.

Nottingham Forest, Brighton and Chelsea players look good this week.

In gameweek 33, Liverpool visit Leicester and you could put in West Ham and Manchester United players against Southampton and Wolves respectively.

If you haven't yet used your wildcard, now could be the time to set you up for two double gameweeks.

Picking when you are going to play your Triple Captain chip might be a good way of setting your strategy for the rest of the season - and deciding when Bench Boost is played.

I think there are three main choices.

1. Newcastle's Alexander Isak this week - safe, high-upside, but lots of players will make the same decision so if you are chasing points look elsewhere.

2. Arsenal's Bukayo Saka in week 33 - Ipswich away and Palace at home is juicy, Saka can easily put back-to-back hauls together. But will he start both games?

3. Wait for week 36 - your hope is Manchester City get to the FA Cup final as one of their games in a potential double would be Southampton away. It's risky waiting this long but could well pay off.

Captain Isak did not pay off, with no goal contributions in a 3-0 Newcastle win.

Saka and fellow Arsenal forward Gabriel Martinelli being benched also hurt.

But Jacob Murphy (16 points) and Liam Delap (8) saved the day for 47 points.

Matz Sels, Nottingham Forest, keeper, £5.1m - Everton (h)

The top-scoring keeper, the second-most clean sheets in the league (13) and a home game against a hardly-prolific Everton side.

You don't need underlying statistics to back up this pick but here is one anyway - Everton's expected goals (xG) on the road (14.18) is lower than every other team, except Leicester and Southampton, who are both set for relegation.

Neco Williams, Nottingham Forest, £4.4m - Everton (h)

Doubling up on a top FPL defence this week. You might look at the points total and think Nikola Milenkovic (£5.1m) is the best Forest asset, having scored four goals.

But Williams is the underlying data pick. Since gameweek 25, Milenkovic has scored twice from four shots, two of which were on target.

Williams, by contrast, leads the team with 10 shots, seven key es, one big chance created and an xG of 0.55.

Milenkovic is a threat from corners, but Williams has more avenues to points from open play.

Daniel Munoz, Crystal Palace, £5.2m - Man City and Newcastle (both a)

If Munoz isn't in your team already then what have you been doing? He's more of a right winger than a defender, and only Manchester City's Josko Gvardiol has more shots in the box, goals and big chances as a defender.

Palace's double doesn't scream clean sheets, but Munoz doesn't need those!

Kieran Trippier, Newcastle, £5.6m - Man Utd and Crystal Palace (both h)

If you can afford him, Trippier is worth the punt as a Newcastle defender.

Fellow full-back Tino Livramento hauled last week, but that was his first assist of the season. Trippier could be taking free-kicks and corners - he's been there and done it as an FPL legend so how about a trip down memory lane?

Kaoru Mitoma, Brighton, £6.5m - Leicester (h)

Backing a forward player against Leicester pays off almost every week and Mitoma is easily Brighton's most reliable midfielder.

The most shots, shots in the box, on target, key es, xG, goals - I could go on.

Newcastle's Murphy had a haul from the flanks against the Foxes, now it is Mitoma's turn.

Mohamed Salah, Liverpool, £13.8m - West Ham (h)

It is now three scoreless games in the past four for Salah, but the question is 'what would you do with the money if you sold him">
