Fantasy EPL Draft – November EPL Fixtures

The EPL Fixtures in November offer some challenges and opportunities for Fantrax managers.

The table has a few unexpected teams on both ends of the table. Fantrax managers are having to adjust expectations and how they view matchups. Three teams have lost four in a row: Nottingham Forest, Fulham, and Liverpool. Three teams have won at least three straight: Manchester United, Aston Villa, and Arsenal. Nothing is certain in the EPL, but the stats and form are helpful to Fantrax managers.

November EPL Fixtures

Here are the teams with the best set of EPL fixtures for November. Players on these teams have added value based on who they are playing.

November brings an interesting contrast in fixture difficulty across the Premier League. Brighton and Fulham enjoy favorable schedules that could add value in their rosters, while Tottenham and Bournemouth face a gauntlet of tough matchups that may limit even their most reliable assets.

• Start = confidence to play them regardless, OR riding the hot hand with good fixtures
• Stream/Rotate = matchup-dependent or short-term value plays
• Bench = own but don’t use, or consider dropping for better options for the month

Favorable EPL Fixtures: Brighton Hove Albion host Leeds to open November before traveling to Crystal Palace, then welcome Brentford and Nottingham Forest to the Amex. This is an excellent run of winnable fixtures that should see Brighton’s attacking players flourish. Fulham welcome Wolves to Craven Cottage, travel to Everton, host Sunderland, and finish the month at Tottenham. Apart from the Spurs fixture, Fulham should be confident of picking up points throughout November.

Tough EPL Fixtures: Tottenham face a nightmare November schedule with matches against Chelsea, Manchester United, and Arsenal, plus a tricky fixture versus Fulham. This is the month to be cautious with Spurs assets. Bournemouth start the month with trips to Manchester City and Aston Villa before hosting a weak West Ham and traveling to Sunderland, who have been the surprises of the season so far, and are tough to play against at home.
