Sunday’s fare includes two Premier League matches featuring both Manchester clubs and a cast of Fantasy captain candidates.

Events begin at the Etithad where Man City’s 100% home record will be tested against a Spurs side that’s seemingly allergic to goals – at either end of the pitch.

Andre Villas-Boas side have scored just a single goal in their last three matches but, equally, have conceded just once in their last four league outings. In contrast, goals are flowing with abandon for City and, having scored 20 at the Etihad this term, Manuel Pellegrini will be optimistic on breaching the resolute Spurs defence this afternoon.

That lunchtime encounter is followed by United’s trip to South Wales to face a Cardiff side suffering an alarming slip on form. Three defeats in five will be a concern for Malky Mackay has he prepares his team to face a United outfit looking for their fourth straight league win.

With the likes of Sergio Aguero, Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie carrying the armband hopes of many, Sunday is set to have a big impact on our Gameweek tallies.

All the lineup news from today’s matches will be presented in our Twitter feed via Andy’s typing fingers. Meanwhile, our Dugout Discussion chatrooom is now fully operational and open to receive your real-time reactions.

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

    I really don't think people need to 'apologise' for asking a question that may have been asked earlier or repeatedly on this site (e.g Aguero assist). It is after all a Fantasy Football site.

    I'm sure everone can relate to wanting an almost instantaneous response about a Fantasy query. Most of us don't have the time/see the need to scroll back pages and pages in the hope of finding their answer (and after all, this websites comment layout doesn't lend itself well to that) when a more informed person is just a quick click away.

    It's such a fast moving site, that if you've spent a while on here and seen several similar posts, just ignore it and move on. Keep happy people! 🙂

        Remy could deregulate that template. question is yes Rooney more consistent (hard to arue that Remy not been consistent w/ avg gol p/ game in 7 matches)...but the Funds you save from rooney > remy can make a diff in the kid you upgrade... so not that easy
