We\u2019ll have to await further word from Daniel Farke, who is at least one of the league\u2019s most helpful managers when it comes to team news.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Karl Darlow<\/strong> (\u00a33.9m) offers FPL managers a budget Gameweek 33 alternative to <strong>Martin Dubravka<\/strong> (\u00a34.0m). <strong>Dominic Calvert-Lewin<\/strong> (\u00a35.6m) is also cheap up top, even if one goal in nine Premier League outings suggests that price tag is about right. At least he\u2019s on penalties.<\/p>\n<p>As for Bournemouth, <strong>James Hill<\/strong> (\u00a34.2m) will surely attract even more suitors now. A DefCon magnet, decent clean sheet potential in at least one Gameweek 33 match and cheap for a Bench Boost.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Marcus Tavernier<\/strong>\u2018s (\u00a35.4m) appeal was dented when <strong>Eli Junior Kroupi<\/strong> (\u00a34.7m) took a spot-kick in Gameweek 31, although the midfielder<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk\/2026\/03\/21\/fpl-notes-kroupi-on-pens-why-bruno-was-given-an-assist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> does at least retain a share of penalty-taking duties<\/a>. He\u2019s also a fairly secure starter, unlike Kroupi. Tavernier has set-pieces in his locker, too.<\/p>\n<p>Neither Leeds nor Bournemouth have ideal entry points for Gameweek 32 Wildcarders: the Whites are away at Manchester United, the Cherries away at Arsenal.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/FFScoutEditorial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG-20250820-WA0000-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"price change predictions\" class=\"wp-image-144736 webpexpress-processed\" style=\"width:600px\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Double Gameweek 33 and Blank Gameweek 34 line-up is complete after Leeds United beat West Ham United&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":874702,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8814],"tags":[248062,239229,748,19285,393,4884,1860,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-874881","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-leeds","8":"tag-blank-and-double-gameweeks","9":"tag-blank-gameweek-34","10":"tag-britain","11":"tag-double-gameweek-33","12":"tag-england","13":"tag-great-britain","14":"tag-leeds","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116355348486501298","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/874881","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=874881"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/874881\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/874702"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=874881"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=874881"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=874881"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
