Dugout Discussion – Arsenal versus Swansea

Gameweek 36 comes to its conclusion tonight as Arsenal host Swansea at the Emirates. After a polished performance at Hull last Monday, the Gunners have now won nine of their last ten league outings, with only a goalless draw against Chelsea temporarily slowing their momentum.

With a double Gameweek against United and Sunderland just around the corner, Fantasy managers are afforded further opportunity to scout Arsene Wenger’s main men this evening.

Alexis Sanchez served up a second double-figure return in four league outings with a brace against the Tigers to persuade over 144,000 FPL managers to snap up his services ahead of this one. The Chilean isn’t the only one worth considering in an attack that looks full of Fantasy potential right now – up top, Olivier Giroud has seven strikes in the last nine, whilst Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil and Santi Cazorla are also jousting for our attention. The Welshman has recovered from a knock sustained at the KC and will surely be set for significant investment on the back of three 10+ hauls in his previous six.

Garry Monk’s men have been in decent form, too. The Swans have won their last two matches since switching to 4-2-3-1, though with Nelson Oliveira missing out through injury tonight, the visitors are without a recognised striker in their starting line-up.
