Gameweek 27 Last Man Standing Picks
Honest picks, the teams to stay away from, and a bit of common sense for your survivor pool
Deadline
Saturday, 21st February 2026 at 15:00 GMT
The Safe Bets
vs Burnley
Chelsea are in the top 5 and Burnley are second bottom. At Stamford Bridge this should be routine
vs Spurs
Arsenal are top of the table for a reason. Spurs have been inconsistent and the Gunners have the quality to win even at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
vs Newcastle
Newcastle have Champions League knockout fixtures to worry about. City at the Etihad is a tough ask for anyone, especially with European distractions
vs Leeds
Leeds have done well since coming up but Villa at home are a different proposition. Villa Park is a fortress

23 Feb at 20:00
Two teams who dont know what they are doing
Stay Away From These
It's the North London derby against Arsenal. Form goes out the window in these matches
They're away at Forest who are fighting for their lives. Tricky fixture away from Anfield
Away at Everton in a proper scrap. Both teams are chaos personified right now
Bournemouth have been decent away from home. Tough one to call
If You've Burned Through the Good Teams
vs Wolves
Wolves are bottom with 9 points from 26 games. But desperate teams sometimes pull out surprise results. Palace at home should win but be careful
vs Brighton
Brighton have been inconsistent. Brentford at home are solid and might be worth a punt if you've burned through the big teams
Chelsea
Top 5 team against second bottom. Sometimes you just take the banker. I've got bigger things to worry about than trying to be clever when Chelsea are playing Burnley at home
