Liverpool will play twice for the second Fantasy Premier League gameweek running after booking their place in the Carabao Cup final.
With minimal wriggle room in the calendar, Liverpool’s meeting with Aston Villa (originally scheduled for March) has been moved forward; the Villans will also play twice in Gameweek 25.
This gameweek is also a good opportunity to use the new Assistant Manager chip on either Arne Slot or Unai Emery if you still have it in hand. As is the case with players they will get an extra match to deliver points this week.
Here are this week’s tips ahead of Friday’s 6.30pm deadline:
Gameweek 25 team
Kepa Arrizabalaga (Bournemouth) – £4.5m Gabriel Magalhaes (Arsenal) – £6.3m Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool) – £6.4m Daniel Munoz (Crystal Palace) – £4.8m Mo Salah (Liverpool) – £13.7m Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa) – £5.6m Justin Kluivert (Bournemouth) – £5.9m Marcus Rashford (Aston Villa) – £6.6m Kai Havertz (Arsenal) – £7.8m Cody Gakpo (Liverpool) – £7.6m Alexander Isak (Newcastle) – £9.5mHigh-flying Bournemouth have one of the most favourable fixture runs in the Premier League with five of their next seven matches scoring a three on FPL’s fixture difficulty rating (and one of the others is against Spurs).
Price: £4.5m Points: 64 Gameweek 25 fixture: Southampton (a)
Defenders
Trent Alexander-Arnold featured for the final half an hour of Wednesday’s pulsating Merseyside derby after returning from a hamstring injury and adapted quickly to the pace of the game.
Price: £7.4m Points: 108 Gameweek 25 fixture(s): Wolves (h), Aston Villa (a)
A fixture against struggling Leicester City gives Arsenal the perfect opportunity to bounce back from their disappointing Carabao Cup exit to Newcastle.
Gabriel has gone 11 league games without a goal but it is not for the want of trying. His total of eight big chances is only bettered by Josko Gvardiol among defenders.

The wing-back ranks joint-top among defenders for shots on target (with 11) and is equal-fifth for chances created (30).
Price: £4.8m Points: 88 Gameweek 25 fixture: Everton (h)
There are only three Liverpool players you could confidently predict will start every Premier League game from now until the end of the season, if fit and able: Alisson, Virgil van Dijk, and Mo Salah.
Liverpool’s first fixture looks particularly good for Van Dijk’s prospects. Wolverhampton Wanderers have conceded 17 goals from set-pieces so far, comfortably the worst record in the division, while Van Dijk has had more headed goal attempts (14) than anyone else in Slot’s squad.
Justin Kluivert (Bournemouth)

Sure, it’s a punt, but if you’re not going to roll the dice for a double gameweek you never will.
If selected, Rashford faces an Ipswich defence that has conceded 23 goals in 11 away games, before taking on his old adversaries Liverpool.
Price: £6.6m Points: 54 Gameweek 25 fixture(s): Ipswich (h), Liverpool (h)
FPL managers who haven’t yet activated their Triple Captain chip this season may fancy doing so on Salah this week.
The fixtures are promising. Only Leicester have conceded more away goals than Wolves this season, while Aston Villa are short on centre-backs and have kept just three clean sheets in the league all season.
Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa)
Doubts over Ollie Watkins‘ fitness, a centre-back shortage and uncertainty over how Villa’s numerous new signings will fit in make Rogers the standout pick.
Price: £5.6m Points: 97 Gameweek 25 fixture(s): Ipswich (h), Liverpool (h)
Forwards
Crystal Palace are one of the form teams in the division with four wins in their last six games and Jean-Philippe Mateta has been integral to that excellent run.
Nottingham Forest’s Chris Wood is the only player to have outscored Mateta in that period with seven.
Alexander Isak (Newcastle)
Plenty of FPL bosses booked in the Alexander Isak to Watkins transfer after Villa’s double was confirmed but it’s a needless move. Isak is the most in-form forward in the division and well capable of tormenting this City defence.
Price: £9.5m Points: 152 Gameweek 25 fixture: Man City (a)
