Unlucky for some? We’ll see what Gameweek 13 brings.

It all kicks off at the Stadium of Light, a game which, on paper, looks a tight affair, short on goal action. However, the Black Cats have their tails up after the win at the Cottage on Sunday and will surely approach the clash in-form West Brom with some confidence. With Fantasy managers eyeing up double Gameweek assets, the Sunderland lineup will be under scrutiny.

After this, we have five more encounters to come, including United’s home clash with QPR, a potential bloodbath, although with Harry’s presence already looming over the Loftus Road gang, we might just see some resistance from the basement club. With the Gunners closing matters at Villa Park this evening, we’ll have our Dugout Discussion chatroom open throughout the day to catch your reaction to events in real-time.

The Team News from the North East finds the home side unchanged from the lineup that earned the points against 10-man Fulham. The Baggies bring back Gareth McAuley from injury to replace Garbriel Tamas at the back, while Chris Brunt is the man to fill the void left by the injured Youssouf Mulumbu.

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

      Players actually look like they're trying today.

      If Redknapp can give us some belief then we may actually have a chance of pulling the escape off. We do need a striker in January though.

      We are keeping our shape today though and Dave McIntyre is right that M'Bia is a huge difference maker compared to having to play Anton in central defence.

        Yeh M'Bia's ball skills just shows that he is more competent than Anton/Onouha. I think Harry will get the team playing well together and hopefully we can stay up some how.
