#3 Pick players who 'rotate' well

Look at the fixtures over the next 10 game-weeks and buy cheap pairs, who when viewed together, have a run of good fixtures. This is called player 'rotation'. For example, here are Bournemouth and Watford's fixtures until game-week 23:
BOU: BUR, SOU, CRY, MUN, LIV, MCI, WHU, EVE, BRI, ARS
WAT: MUN, TOT, BUR, CRY, HUD, BRI, LEI, SWA, MCI, SOU
If you pick Simon Francis - Bournemouth (£4.4) and Adrian Mariappa -Watford (£4.0) in your team and rotate them by playing the player with the easier fixture (highlighted in bold) every week, then you'd effectively have a player with a terrific run of fixtures over the next 10 games. Here are some other rotation pairs for the next 8-10 game-weeks:
West Brom and Watford
Everton and Huddersfield
Brighton and Stoke
Leicester and Newcastle
