Fantasy Premier League (FPL) is now in its 22nd game week. Here are Give Me Sport‘s tips for the upcoming fixtures.
Another weekend has passed in the Premier League, which meant a load more drama, thrills and chaos ensued. The big game of GW21 was undoubtedly at the Emirates, as Edward Nketiah proved his worth for the Gunners against Manchester United with two goals including a last-gasp winner to seal all three points.
Elsewhere, Erling Haaland was back to his usual goal-scoring ways as Manchester City battered Wolverhampton Wanderers – the Norwegian bagged his third Premier League hat-trick in what is turning out to be a ludicrous debut season.
But, now we look forward to yet another week of top-flight football and what this may bring to us in an FPL sense. So, with this - here are our tips for Game Week 22 in Fantasy Premier League 22/23 season.

Here is the next round of fixtures that are taking place in Game Week 22 in the Premier League, which were gathered from the official Premier League website.
Friday 3rd February 2023
Saturday 4th February 2023
Sunday 5th February 2023
Wednesday 8th February 2023
Some interesting games in an FPL sense and some you should certainly be on the lookout for.
The highest achievers face one of the lowest in the early Saturday kick-off as the Gunners take on the Toffees. Arsenal defenders are a great shout as Everton's attack is simply abysmal and has only been weakened thanks to the recent departure of Anthony Gordon in the January transfer window.
Brighton players are also a very popular option this season. They face Bournemouth in a battle of the Bs which could definitely end up with a few points for Seagull's players.
There are a few fixtures we'd certainly look to avoid completely. These include Chelsea vs Fulham and Tottenham vs Man City. Judging from previous fixtures, it's very difficult to predict how these games will go.
Just the single game week this time round - so nothing to write about in that department. So, what players should you be looking to get in?
Here are some dead-set picks for Game Week 22 in Fantasy Premier League 22/23.

Brighton's scouting system has been nothing short of phenomenal over the years and another major talent to come out of it has to be Kaoru Mitoma.
The Japanese winger looks like the most dangerous player in the Seagulls side and has already proven his goal-scoring and ability to assist. He could pick up more points as they face the Cherries at home.

If we'd have written this piece just a couple of days back, there is no way you'd see this name cropping up. However thanks to Bayern Munich's acquisition of Joao Cancelo - this means that Rico Lewis is a serious contender to be starting many games for the Cityzens.
At just £3.9m, he could be a fantastic enabler going forward - so get him now before his price rises.

Along with Erling Haaland, probably THE must-have attacking option at the moment. He's been in sensational form for Manchester United, scoring in nearly every game he's featured in.
He now has two fixtures in GW22, with an opportunity for points in both.
If you don't have the Red Devil in your FPL side - get him now.
