FPL double gameweek 26 tips: Gabriel is best captain as Arsenal play twice, plus trust Cole Palmer

I’m opting for the defensive triple-up again after it worked like a charm in Week 25.

And Gabriel is the premium captain pick this week. He’s averaging 7.1 points per game this season, making him the fourth-highest scoring asset in the game.

Wolves’ game looks like a tacked-on clean sheet and, given their current defensive form, you’d hope they can keep Thiago and Brentford at bay as well.

Daniel Munoz, Crystal Palace£5.8 million – Burnley (h)

Chris Richards, Crystal Palace£4.4 million – Burnley (h)

This week’s team also goes all-in on Palace’s home defense against struggling Burnley.

Richards has reached ‘defcon’ on 10 occasions this season and has also missed a point on four occasions.

Munoz, surprisingly, doesn’t stand out stat-wise in many areas unlike last season.

But you only have to watch a Palace game to see the attacking threat he poses: he’s fundamentally a right winger.
