FPL Gameweek 18 Tips and Tricks: Transfers

Considering a lot of rotation in this busy festive schedule and COVID creeping back to postpone fixtures, it might be time to make big changes and invest in a few squad options to rotate using your free transfers.

Manchester City and Chelsea as always look the most promising. Their upcoming fixtures look especially appealing, and it’s time to go heavy on their midfield if you haven’t done so already. With goals against Leeds pretty much a guarantee, Arsenal youngsters Emile Smith-Rowe and Bukayo Saka could prove valuable assets this week.

FPL Gameweek 18 Tips and Tricks: Chips

Even though there are double gameweeks ahead, with a lot of fixtures in doubt this week, it might be a safe bet in playing your Free Hit chip to rotate the pack just this time around. Other than that, there will soon be double gameweeks, and that is where the the other chips should be used. Bench Boost should also be saved for a week that sees multiple players play in two matches on the same matchweek.

So for this particular GW, we advice you to rotate using one of your chips, if you like to play it safe. Make intelligent choices, and succeed. Happy scoring, fellow managers!
