Despite the lack of an early kick-off, Saturday still delivers six Premier League encounters, with five three o’clock clashes followed by Norwich City’s home meet with West Ham this evening. While that match is lacking assets to interest Fantasy managers, this afternoon’s games seem laden with points, particularly at Anfield where Liverpool face lowly Fulham with armbands clasped firmly around the biceps of Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge.

With Chelsea facing West Brom at the Bridge, the Southampton rearguard up against Hull at St Mary’s and Romelu Lukaku locking horns with the Palace defence, Fantasy managers should be looking at a steady flow of returns from today’s events to take them into Sunday’s big fixtures.

Our Twitter stream is carrying all the latest team news prior to kick-off, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to furnish those who like some real-time reaction.

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

    I said last night in my differential post that Bancuna and Sess could become good options, and here we go 🙂

      Did you put them in your team?

        I couldn't pull the trigger on Michu > Bacuna and instead went with Coutinho who once again manages to come as come as close to scoring some points as possible and in the end doesnt't.

    • 13 Years
    12 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone see the Liverpool 1st Goal.............Suarez touch before OG??

    Sky say opposite

  18. You've got red on you.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    12 years, 3 months ago

    Sturridge and Silva -------> Suarez and 7.6m (undecided)

    Not sure I can continue playing this game without Suarez...

    1. 1-1 at Newcastle
      • 12 Years

    12 years, 3 months ago

    Michu replacement:

    Sess Cabaye Arnie...?

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 3 months ago

      Sess

  24. Wilshere Knowledge
    • 12 Years
    12 years, 3 months ago

    Villa score 2....Tekkers gets nothing!

  25. I am not a smart guy
    • 13 Years
    12 years, 3 months ago

    To bring in Suarez, should I sell Sturridge or Lukaku?

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 3 months ago

      Toss a coin bring him in now.

    2. ccc
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 3 months ago

      Lukaku imo. Sturridge starts are more secure than Lukaku's.

    3. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 3 months ago

      Lukaku

  26. ccc
    • 13 Years
    12 years, 3 months ago

    come on Suarez, get your third.

  27. thepuntmaster
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years

  28. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    12 years, 3 months ago

    Of course rAvel starts up front when I bench him for barkley

    1. Deulo10
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 3 months ago

      Barkley still has 20 mins, so hopefully he will do something

  29. DonTheSpecialOne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    12 years, 3 months ago

    Ravel and Collins starting, nice! Predicted goal from both. Lol
