Last weekend’s headliners get the Gameweek started as Swansea face West Ham at the Liberty in the day’s early kick-off. Following that, we’ve no less than seven other Premier League matches in a bumper Saturday programme. Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to soak up your real-time reactions as today’s matches roll on.

The team news from Swansea finds Michael Laudrup not surprisingly keeping faith with the same XI which scored five at Loftus Road. Chico recovers from a knock to start in defence, then. As for West Ham, they give £10 million man Matt Jarvis his debut, while James Tomkins also returns to the starting lineup and could well occupy a midfield role. Ricardo Vaz Te and Matt Taylor have made way.

Enjoy the game and all today’s action.

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

      You should wildcard now. Bring in the players who are going to rise in price, sell those that are going to fall and then just confirm it all on friday/saturday!

      Remember, unlimited transfers for the full week!

      wildcard has to be done now at the beginning of a week. simply transfer the players who have done well today and transfer out the ones who done poor then come friday finalise your team. that way you will benfit from proze rises. im wildcarding later after the chelsea match.
