It's not too late to enter a squad for FPL Challenge in Gameweek 32, where Manchester United and Liverpool players earn DOUBLE points, with the final deadline coming at 17:30 BST on Sunday.

15:30 BST 
Man Utd v Liverpool

Sunday’s first match is likely to be the most popular of Gameweek 32, with players from Man Utd and Liverpool earning double points in this week’s challenge.

Bruno Fernandes (£8.2m) and Alejandro Garnacho (£4.9m) are the hosts’ form players. The Portuguese’s midweek goal against Chelsea on Thursday evening means he’s blanked just once in his last five matches, while Garnacho’s brace at Stamford Bridge underlines his appeal as a budget gem. 

Red Devils goalkeeper Andre Onana (£4.9m), meanwhile, has earned at least one save point in each of his last 10 appearances. The Cameroonian made eight saves in the reverse fixture at Anfield to collect 10 points in the goalless draw.  

Alexis Mac Allister (£5.9m) is Liverpool’s form player – the Argentinian has produced attacking returns in each of the last six Gameweeks.

Handing Mohamed Salah (£13.4m) the armband effectively earns you QUADRUPLE points as captain, while Darwin Nunez (£7.7m) can also take advantage of a Man Utd side who ranked among the bottom two for conceding shots in the box and big chances in their last four matches ahead of Gameweek 32.

17:30 BST Fantasy Challenge deadline
Sheffield United v Chelsea

Chelsea’s encounter with Sheffield United gives Cole Palmer (£6.0m) every chance of extending his incredible run of form. His hat-trick against Man Utd in midweek earned the midfielder his ninth double-figure score of 2023/24, more than any other player. 

Palmer’s 27 shots, 13 shots on target and 18 key passes were all more than any other player in Fantasy across Chelsea's last four matches. 

His hosts, meanwhile, have conceded 29 goals in their previous seven fixtures at Bramall Lane across all competitions. 

Forward Nicolas Jackson (£6.8m) could also thrive against the Blades' poor defence, while right-back Malo Gusto (£4.3m) has produced an assist in two of his side’s last three matches on the road.

18:00 Spurs v Nott’m Forest
Tottenham Hotspur's Son Heung-min (£10.1m)’s potential for big hauls makes him the top target for the Gameweek’s final fixture, with eight double-figure hauls to his name this season. 

James Maddison (£7.9m) and Pedro Porro (£5.9m) are also worth considering if you’ve any spare places remaining after the first nine matches of the Gameweek.
