Best Midfielder Picks in FPL GW 34

As we gear up for an action-packed fantasy week, seven teams are set to play twice, notably including title contenders Arsenal and Liverpool. Given their favorable fixtures and high potential for points, it’s evident that investing in triple assets from both Arsenal and Liverpool is a smart move.

Despite recent setbacks in the Premier League and Europe, these two teams offer the best prospects for Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers. While Everton, Wolves, Sheffield United, Crystal Palace, and Bournemouth also have double-game weeks, their assets are less appealing overall, with potentially challenging fixtures and fewer standout options.

Now, let’s delve into the best midfielder picks in FPL gameweek 34.
