Green-Light Runs from GW24: The Teams with 3+ Straight Easy Fixtures to Target Now

Introduction

Fixtures don’t score points on their own—but they do shape where points are most likely to land. From Gameweek 24 onwards, a few clubs quietly line up three consecutive “green” (easy) fixtures in our next-four-GWs window. If you’re planning transfers, captaincy cover, or a short-term mini-wildcard approach, these are the runs to lean into.

Definition used: “Green” = fixture difficulty 2.

Teams with 3+ Straight Green Fixtures (GW24–GW27)

Chelsea — 3 greens in a row (GW24–GW26)

Chelsea are the standout for immediate, sustained ease: three straight green fixtures starting right now.

•GW24: Chelsea vs West Ham (2)
•GW25: Wolves vs Chelsea (2)
•GW26: Chelsea vs Leeds (2)
•GW27: Chelsea vs Burnley (2) (still green—extends the run to four in a row)

Why it matters:

•This is the cleanest runway in the dataset: a GW24–GW27 chain of four green fixtures.
•It’s ideal for multi-week holds rather than one-week punts.

FPL approach:

•If you’re buying into any team based on fixtures alone, Chelsea are the clearest “set and forget for a month” candidate.

Sunderland — 3 greens in a row (GW24–GW25 and GW27)

Sunderland post a strong green run early, with a single tougher blip later.

•GW24: Sunderland vs Burnley (2)
•GW25: Arsenal vs Sunderland (5) (very hard interruption)
•GW26: Sunderland vs Liverpool (4) (hard)
•GW27: Sunderland vs Fulham (2)

Important note: Sunderland do not have three consecutive green fixtures across GW24–GW27. They only have two greens (GW24, GW27) with difficult matches in between.

Near-Misses: Strong Green Volume, But Not 3 in a Row

These teams don’t hit the “3 consecutive green” requirement, but they offer multiple greens inside the next four, which can still be useful for short-term planning.

Man City — 2 greens in 3 (GW26–GW27)

•GW25: Liverpool vs Man City (4)
•GW26: Man City vs Fulham (2)
•GW27: Man City vs Newcastle (3) (not green)

Not a green streak, but GW26 is a clear target point.

Man Utd — scattered greens (no streak)

•GW24: Man Utd vs Fulham (2)
•GW25: Man Utd vs Spurs (3)
•GW26: West Ham vs Man Utd (2)
•GW27: Everton vs Man Utd (3) Two greens in four, but broken up.

Crystal Palace — pockets of ease (no streak)

•GW24: Nott'm Forest vs Crystal Palace (3)
•GW25: Brighton vs Crystal Palace (3)
•GW26: Crystal Palace vs Burnley (2)
•GW27: Crystal Palace vs Wolves (2) Good finish (two greens), but not three straight.

GW24 Transfer Angle: What the Data Is Screaming

If you’re targeting an easy-run team from GW24, there’s one clear answer:

•Chelsea are the only side in this four-GW window that deliver 3+ green fixtures consecutively—and they actually stretch it to four.

That makes them the premier fixture-based target for:

•Rolling transfers (bringing in one asset now, another later)
•Set-and-hold picks through GW27
•Building a stable base while others navigate mixed schedules

Conclusion

When the goal is to target easy upcoming runs, the data from GW24–GW27 is unusually decisive. Chelsea own the schedule: four straight green fixtures in a row, starting immediately. If you’re making fixture-led decisions over the next month, this is the run to build around—and the one your rivals will feel if they ignore it.
