The Gameweek continues with a pair of Sunday afternoon encounters, beginning with Tottenham’s trip to South Wales as they take on Swansea, before Chelsea and United see us into the Sunday roast with a would-be classic at the Bridge.

Fantasy managers are likely to have plenty invested in today’s matches, with recent differentials Christian Eriksen and Emmanuel Adeabayor on show at the Liberty, while Eden Hazard and Oscar will carry the hopes for many in the 4pm kick-off.

The team news from Swansea finds the home side make just one change: Chico returns to the starting XI and takes his place alongside Ashley Williams, allowing Jordi Amat to shift to midfield to cover for the injured Jose Canas. Tim Sherwood also makes just one change to the Spurs starting lineup that saw off Palace last time out. Roberto Soldado’s season continues to go from bad to worse as he’s dropped to the bench. It’s a 4-5-1 from the visitors, then, as Nacer Chadli is drafted in with Christian Eriksen perhaps set to be pushed up behind Emmanuel Adebayor.

As usual, our Dugout Discussion chatroom is open to capture the real-time rise and fall in fortunes as today’s matches unfold.

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

        With this current team they'd still lose. Maybe not if it was Brazilian Ronaldo though.

    Alright guys. Anyone on here seen much of Sidwell play. I've not exactly gone out of my way to watch Fulham play this year and was wondering if he’s worth keeping?

    Current team is: Boruc; Terry, Baines, Kolarov (Clyne, Chester); Hazard, Gerrard, Silva, Sidwell, (Januzaj); Aguero, Suarez, Lukaku.

    Not sure whether to stick with Gerrard and rotate Sidwell/Januzaj or to boot them to get Cabaye and Ramsey (or other 7m mid). Gerrard has done me well this year, but you feel he can’t get a penalty every game! Admittedly only just got rid of Cabaye so upsets me a little to bring him back in.

      Not a Gerrard owner myself, but with Suarez leading his attack he is going to have more than his fair share of penalties.

    An early bath for Nemanja Vidić (Manchester United). He receives a red card from the referee. His teammates will not thank him after the match.
