The Gameweek continues with a quartet of three o’clock kick-offs, culminating in a relegation scrap in South Wales as Cardiff host basement dwellers Sunderland.

All eyes will be on the Manchester clubs, however, as City and United face fixtures that, on paper, look profitable for Fantasy mangers. Wayne Rooney’s relentless form has another opportunity to come to the fore at Carrow Road, while City’s Etihad juggernaut has its engines running and is aimed squarely at the bus likely to be parked by Tony Pulis’ Palace.

We’re expecting big points all round and a potential rollercoaster of an afternoon before the evening clash brings us back down to a simmer.

As always, look to our Twitter feed for the latest teamsheet news while our Dugout Discussion chatroom remains open to cater for your real-time chatter needs.

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

        Thanks for the replies, think Wellbeck could be the highest points scorer until WC but Giroud maybe safer?

      Skrtel's started the last sixteen in a row, so it seems like it's him - Sakho and Agger competing for the other spot, Rodgers doesn't seem to want to play two left-footers.

        This is my inclination as well, although I think he's probably their worst central defender. I'll probably opt for Evans and bring Migs back in though. Too much uncertainty there.
