Here is the Gameweek 26 fixture list in full.

• Fulham vs. Tottenham

Arsenal, Brighton, Leeds, Newcastle, Southampton and West Ham are the only six teams without two games in Gameweek 26.

Let's get stuck into the top player picks for Gameweek 26.

Goalkeepers

Leicester have two fixtures against low-scoring teams – Arsenal and Burnley – on the horizon, making Kasper Schmeichel a solid goalkeeper pick for Gameweek 26.

Ederson (Man City), Emi Martinez (Aston Villa) and Hugo Lloris (Tottenham) also have a couple of favorable fixtures.

With Man City, Man Utd and Leicester scoring goals for fun at the moment, Edouard Mendy (Chelsea), Rui Patricio (Wolves) and Nick Pope (Burnley) are probably worth avoiding this week.

Defenders

Leicester defenders Jonny Evans and Timothy Castagne both look set to pick up plenty of points in Gameweek 26, although it is worth remembering that James Justin and Wesley Fofana are both currently injured.

In-form Man City trio Joao Cancelo, Ruben Dias, and John Stones are likely to keep at least one clean sheet from their two games, while the former is also a threat in attack.

Solid budget options include Stuart Dallas (Leeds) – who scored and kept a clean sheets last time – and Ola Aina (Fulham) – who has bagged one goal, one assist and two shutouts in his last three outings.

Midfielders

Keeping with the theme of Leicester stars, Harvey Barnes and James Maddison are both on fire at the moment. Barnes has notched up nine goals and four assists in the league this term, while Maddison has eight goals and seven assists to his name.

Raphina (Leeds) is also in unstoppable form right now, racking up three goals and three assists in his previous seven appearances.

Burno Fernandes (Man Utd), Ademola Lookman (Fulham), Mason Mount (Chelsea) and Jesse Lingard (West Ham) were all among the highest-scoring midfielders in the previous round.

Forwards

There was rare success for Crystal Palace strikers last weekend, with Christian Benteke and Jean-Philippe Mateta both getting on the scoresheet against Brighton.

Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin will be confident of adding to his tally of 13 goals, with the Toffees coming up against two leaky defences – Southampton and West Brom – in the next round.

Patrick Bamford (Leeds), Michail Antonio (West Ham), and Jamie Vardy (Leicester) are also worth considering for Gameweek 26.
