This week's expert-recommended Free Hit team, selected within a £100m budget, highlights the strategic importance of targeting players from these two clubs while balancing fixtures across the league.\n\nManchester City's attacking assets take center stage, with Erling Haaland positioned as the obvious captain choice. The Norwegian striker faces two home fixtures against Brentford and Crystal Palace, offering significant potential for returns. However, the analysis suggests looking beyond Haaland to other City players, particularly Rayan Cherki, who has emerged as the club's most reliable midfield option in his debut season.\n\nCherki's inclusion reflects his impressive creative output, having recorded 12 assists in 18 starts. The French midfielder offers better consistency than teammate Jeremy Doku, who despite explosive potential has only managed four goals this season. With City chasing goal difference in the title race, their attacking approach in both home fixtures could provide multiple opportunities for returns.\n\nCrystal Palace's double gameweek presents both opportunity and risk. The team faces Everton at home before traveling to Manchester City, but concerns about rotation exist given their potential UEFA Conference League final appearance. However, the analysis suggests that manager Oliver Glasner's rotation strategy has backfired recently, with Palace earning just one point from their last three games and showing nervousness about the relegation zone.\n\nAmong Palace assets, Ismaila Sarr stands out as the preferred attacking option. The winger boasts impressive underlying statistics, with only Cole Palmer recording a higher expected goals per 90 minutes than Sarr's 0.43. Additionally, when Jean-Philippe Mateta is off the pitch, Sarr assumes penalty duties, adding to his potential value in this double gameweek.\n\nThe defensive selections reveal interesting strategic choices. Brighton's Bart Verbruggen and Jan Paul van Hecke feature against a Wolves side that has lost their last two away games 3-0 and 4-0, having scored only seven goals on the road all season. This makes a Brighton clean sheet a logical expectation for the week.\n\nArsenal's Gabriel maintains his place in the team despite facing West Ham away. The Gunners' defensive form has been exceptional, keeping four clean sheets in their last six matches. Gabriel himself has shown attacking threat, recording an expected goals figure of 0.64 against Fulham, suggesting he's due for a goal contribution.\n\nThe midfield selections balance premium assets with value picks. Bruno Fernandes continues his consistent returns for Manchester United, while Harry Wilson offers home form for Fulham, having scored eight of his 10 goals this season at Craven Cottage. Wilson faces a Bournemouth defense that has conceded more away goals than any team except Burnley.\n\nUpfront, Richarlison's inclusion signals Tottenham's potential resurgence. After a difficult period, Spurs have shown improved form, with Richarlison contributing 10 goals and four assists in just 17 starts. His performance in the win at Aston Villa demonstrated his importance to Tottenham's attacking threat as they look to finish the season strongly.\n\nThe bench selections provide coverage across positions, with Emiliano Martinez offering goalkeeping backup, Danny Welbeck providing forward depth, James Hill representing Bournemouth's defensive value, and Mathys Tel adding Tottenham midfield coverage. The total team cost of £97.9m leaves budget flexibility for potential adjustments.\n\nThis Free Hit strategy emphasizes the importance of targeting double gameweek fixtures while maintaining balance across the squad. With the season approaching its conclusion, every decision becomes magnified, making this week's team selection particularly crucial for FPL managers looking to maximize their final rankings.\n\nBased on reporting from BBC Sport.","news","Expert FPL analysis for double gameweek 36 recommends Manchester City's Rayan Cherki and Erling Haaland as key assets, with Crystal Palace players also featured in a Free Hit team strategy.","326257546258026496","Manchester City","327746730059632641","326135625054949376","Premier League","327053872243675136","Manchester City vs Crystal Palace","2026-05-07T07:52:01Z","fpl-double-gameweek-36-cherki-leads-city-assets-as-free-hit-strategy-targets","BBC Sport","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.bbc.com\u002Fsport\u002Ffootball\u002Farticles\u002Fckgpvdd7vv1o?at_medium=RSS&at_campaign=rss",[50,45,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74],"326257546291580928","326257545876344832","326257545968619520","326257546153168896","326257545712766976","326257546459353088","326257545830207488","326257545792458752","326257546094448640","326257546358689792","326257546425798656","326257546010562560","326257546325135360",[51,46,76,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88],"Brighton","Wolves","Arsenal","West Ham","Manchester United","Sunderland","Fulham","Bournemouth","Tottenham","Leeds","Aston Villa","Burnley","Brentford","FPL Double Gameweek 36: Cherki Leads City Assets as Free Hit Strategy Targets Final Double",[91,118,125,153],{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":48,"excerpt":92,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":93,"leagueId":53,"leagueName":54,"matchId":94,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":95,"slug":96,"sourceName":97,"sourceURL":98,"teamId":99,"teamName":100,"teamIds":101,"teamNames":109,"title":117},"Liverpool appoint Iraola as Slot successor on two-year deal.
