FPL Tips Gameweek 15 | Last Minute
Fantasy Football Tips GW15 from our Fantasy Football Community ahead of the deadline.
How should long term fixture blanks and doubles inform our Fantasy Football tips for Gameweek 15?
Injuries
There’s plenty of injury news for the fantasy football tips gameweek 15, with this congested time of the season leading to an increase in muscle injuries. Both of Chelsea’s full-backs have succumbed to problems, although the prognosis from Frank Lampard was positive but not conclusive. Given Chelsea have two games coming up in a week, it could be risky to hold firm.? Lampard: "Reece and Chilly have been doing really well so we hope both their injuries are not too bad and they'll be in and around those two games over Christmas."

Premiums
FPL Spectrum has updated the form charts and two players have been superior over this most recent spell: Mo Salah and Bruno Fernandes. Given both their form and the general form of the teams they play in, plus an upcoming Double Gameweek, they are about to become the go-to premium assets. Squeezing in Manchester City and Spurs attackers too makes things tricky.GW14 saw some big points scored, with Salah and Fernandes making the difference. With both assets topping the form charts and with LIV and MUN both having double fixtures in GW19, we should expect their ownership to go through the roof. ??#FPL #FPLCommunity pic.twitter.com/8WqQGuNON8

Planning
Planning was high on the agenda for the FPL GW15 Tips in the latest episode of the Who Got The Assist? podcast, where the trio were joined by fantasy legend FPL General. Each panellist talked through their remaining chips and the strategy they plan to use, with varying results. It goes to show that each managers situation is different and there is more than one way to approach this spell.WGTA S4E18: What will we do in the Blanks, Doubles & Festive Season??

Defenders
Talking of defenders and clean sheets for the FPL Gameweek 15 selection, it’s the in-form Liverpool full-backs Andrew Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold who are becoming popular selections in the community. It’s difficult to split the pair and they come in at the same price. Fantasy Football Fix use their powerful algorithm to help us make that important decision.? Robertson ?

Midfielders
One midfielder who could capitalise on an injury for his team-mate Danny Ings is Theo Walcott. Southampton have a nice run of fixtures, plus one in the double, so if Danny Ings is out long-term he could roll back the years up front for Southampton. His link up play with Che Adams has been promising, but he’s difficult to trust given his history.In the four Gameweeks Walcott played up front for Southampton
