We can finally wave goodbye to Gameweek 20 after tonight’s events, as Spurs and Everton clash at the Lane to bring it to a conclusion. Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to capture your thoughts, comments and opinion in real-time as events unfold.

The same double Gameweek assets that disappointed the first time around, will now be expected to deliver with Gareth Bale and Emmanuel Adebayor once again carrying the armband for thousands of Fantasy managers.

Investment in the Everton lineup was far more modest and, with both Phil Jagielka and Leon Osman sidelined, it’s likely to be just Leighton Baines who goes into tonight’s game with Fantasy backing.

Away from the Lane, City and Liverpool clash in the first leg of their Carling Cup semi-final – a distraction perhaps, but Roberto Mancini’s teamsheet and the form of Steven Gerrard will be on the agenda for watchful Fantasy managers.

The City lineup shows no start for David Silva, with City moving quickly to offer reassurance that the inspirational Spaniard won’t be sidelined for long – it remains to be seen if he’ll make Monday’s trip to Wigan. The Liverpool lineup has Jose Enrique on the bench with Martin Kelly, drafted in; Craig Bellamy and Steven Gerrard both start, as does Andy Carroll.

At the Lane, Jake Livermore comes in for the injured Scott Parker while both Michael Dawson and Aaron Lennon earn starts. Everton recall Tim Cahill, with no place for Royston Drenthe – he’s left on the bench.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    I hate this game - bring Drenthe on for a 10 minute, 1-point cameo and my week will be complete.

      Don't get sentimental about him, it's a good performance but very unlikely to continue with the fixtures Spurs have.
