Fantasy Premier League: Five players to target for FPL Double Gameweek 33
Fantasy Premier League: Five players to target for FPL Double Gameweek 33 This weekend is set to be the biggest Double Gameweek of the 2025-26 FPL season with six clubs playing twice in Gameweek 33. Manchester City, Chelsea, Leeds, Bournemouth, Brighton, and Burnley all have two fixtures, maximising the chances of massive hauls for FPL bosses. Ahead of the transfer deadline, we’ve profiled five players who you should target for transfers in before the deadline.
Nico O’Reilly – Manchester City (£5m) Gameweek 33 fixtures: Arsenal (H), Burnley (A) With Erling Haaland (60%) and Antoine Semenyo (57%) already the two most-owned players in FPL, we’re recommending Nico O’Reilly for those targeting a Manchester City triple-up. The 21-year-old is the form FPL player in the Manchester City squad, with three double-digit hauls in his last six games. Listed as a defender in FPL, O’Reilly’s move into a box-crashing midfield role has seen him flourish.
He’s picked up four goals and three clean sheets across the last six gameweeks, averaging 8. 6 points per game. He also netted both goals in the 2-0 Carabao Cup final win over Arsenal, ahead of a crunch clash with the Gunners in the league this weekend.
O’Reilly picked up an injury at Chelsea last weekend but has trained this week. Rayan Cherki – Manchester City (£6. 3m) Gameweek 33 fixtures: Arsenal (H), Burnley (A) Fresh from a 10-point return at Chelsea last weekend, Rayan Cherki will be a target for FPL managers this week.
The Frenchman has been a pleasure to watch this season, with his maverick qualities adding a new edge to Manchester City. Though his minutes are not guaranteed – he’s started in 15 of his 26 league appearances – Cherki is a production machine when on the pitch. He’s averaged a Premier League goal or assist every 106 minutes.
