Every gameweek where a club plays twice or not at all, from FPL's own fixture list: the fixtures, the most-owned players involved and which chip fits.
How to use this →Right now: No double or blank gameweek is confirmed yet. Every one of the 28 gameweeks left, GW11 to GW38, has all 20 clubs playing once on FPL's current fixture list. Doubles appear when a postponed match is moved into a round that already has one, usually from December onwards; this page changes within the hour of FPL doing it. As of Tue 10 Nov, 14:32 UK.
FPL confirms a double when it gives a postponed match a new gameweek, and a blank when a cup round or a European final empties one. We read the fixture list every hour.Every gameweek from FPL's fixture list; a played gameweek links to its overview.

All fifteen score, so the more of your squad with two matches the better. Build towards it a few weeks out.
Plan the squad →How it works →A player with two kind fixtures scores three times over. The captain page ranks every candidate on the odds.
Captain picks →How it works →When fewer than eleven of your squad have a match, a Free Hit fields a full team for one week and hands your own squad back.
Value it for your squad →How it works →A few weeks before the first big double, to load up on the clubs playing twice without taking hits.
Build a wildcard draft →How it works →A double gameweek happens when a match postponed for a cup tie, a European game or the weather is rescheduled into a gameweek that already has a full round, so the clubs involved play twice. A blank gameweek is the opposite: a cup round or a European final leaves some clubs with no match.
FPL confirms both only when it moves the fixture, which is why this page shows nothing until it does. Most seasons have two to four doubles and one or two blanks, the biggest in April and May.
Full methodology →38, one per round of Premier League matches, from August to May. A double gameweek is one of the 38 in which some clubs play twice; a blank is one in which some do not play at all.
The table on this page is the answer, read from FPL's fixture list every hour: it lists every confirmed double and blank for 2026/27 and says plainly when none is confirmed yet. Doubles are usually confirmed from December, with the biggest in April and May.
The table on this page lists every confirmed double and blank from FPL's fixture list, read every hour, and the summary at the top names the next one. Until FPL moves a postponed match into a round that already has one, there is none to show; the first usually lands between December and February, the big ones in April and May.
A gameweek in which some clubs play two matches, because a postponed fixture was rescheduled into it. Their players can score twice, which is why Bench Boost and Triple Captain are saved for them.
A gameweek in which some clubs have no match, usually because an FA Cup round or a European final takes the date. Their players score nothing, and a Free Hit fields a full team for that week only.
Bench Boost when most of your fifteen play twice; Triple Captain on a player with two kind fixtures. The chip planner puts a number on each for your own squad.
A free account brings the deadline email with your captain and bench, injury alerts for players you watch, and price alerts the evening before they move.
