The Dugout Discussion – Sunderland Vs Southampton

The first of seven Saturday encounters kicks off at the Stadium of Light as Sunderland entertain Southampton this lunchtime.

Following the Wearside encounter, there are five games to focus on at 3pm, with Arsenal and City’s home clashes against Fulham and Cardiff heavily-backed by Fantasy managers. The evening match at Anfield then follows, as Captain Poll favourite Luis Suarez looks to run riot against Villa’s porous backline.

The Black Cats are looking for a fourth straight win on all competitions and, having already beaten City, Chelsea and United at home under Gus Poyet, they’ll fancy their chances of claiming another scalp against Adam Lallana and co.

As always, you can look to our Twitter feed for all the teamsheet news, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom has opened up to cater for your real-time requirements for this game and all of today’s matches.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Tempted to lose double Arsenal defence and get in Martin Olsson to finance Aguero

    Rotating Norwich, Hull and Palace for a 3rd defensive spot works well.

        2. Sterling to rise (7%) or Ki to double rise?
        3. Negredo to rise tonight?
        4. Aguero to rise tonight?

          2. Depends what Sterling does in the game
          3 maybe
          4. Iffy, depends what he does off the bench.

          Ask me later after all the games have been played.

          Negredo's been losing transfers since the deadline. I imagine unless he gets a brace that this trend will continue as people offload to get Aguero. Brace is quite possible, though.
