This article is part of our Premier League Projections series.
It is a a short turnaround, as Gameweek 34 concluded just three days before Gameweek 35 begins. The upcoming week provides intriguing matchups to be considered when assessing your fantasy team. The marquee game pits Tottenham against Manchester City. It is a matchup that should include plenty of fireworks, which is good news for fantasy owners looking for goals. It projects to be the highest scoring match of the weekend, as both squads are expected to score multiple goals.Liverpool and Manchester United are expected to provided the most lopsided results of the weekend, as they play Queens Park Rangers and West Bromwich Albion, respectively. Both Liverpool and Manchester United are projected to score the most goals of the weekend while also keeping a clean sheet. This makes all players from the clubs relevant.
In addition to Liverpool and Manchester United, four other teams are projected to keep a clean sheet: Leicester City (v. Newcastle), Southampton (at Sunderland), Swansea City (v. Stoke City) and Chelsea (v. Crystal Palace) should all have a great opportunity to blank their opponents.
The high number of goals expected from Manchester United and Liverpool gives great goal expectancies and peripheral stats for many of their players, as Liverpool midfielders dominate the projections. However, their lack of a reliable striker option gives Sergio Aguero, Harry Kane and Diego Costa (hamstring) top billing for strikers, as each of their matchups are fantastic.
After setting the Premier League on fire recently, Crystal Palace find themselves in a scoring slump, and that is expected to continue when they travel to face Chelsea. As a club, they are expected to attempt the second-fewest number of shots, and the only team expected to attempt fewer is West Brom. The low number of shots means these two teams' attacking options should be avoided.
