Sunday brings the Gameweek to a close as White Hart Lane and Old Trafford host afternoon clashes bristling with the promise of goals and Fantasy points.

Events begin in north London where Tim Sherwood’s Spurs host Everton. Having been jolted out of a revival which saw them win four on the trot under their new boss, Tottenham will go into the clash with the Toffees off the back of a 5-1 defeat to City and 1-1 stalemate with Hull. Everton have had their own wounds to lick recently but, having suffered a 4-0 Merseyside derby drubbing, Roberto Martinez’ side recovered last time out with a 2-1 win over Villa.

Later today, United welcome an ailing Fulham side to Old Trafford in what looks to be a potential points bonanza for David Moyes’ outfit. The Cottagers have shipped 11 goals in their last four outings, notching just once in response. While United slipped to defeat at Stoke last time out, they’ll be heavily backed to recover in today’s clash, with Fantasy managers hopeful that Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney and Juan Mata are pivotal in a big home win.

As always you can look to our Twitter feed for all the team news ahead of kick-off, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom will support your real-time banter requirements throughout today’s matches.

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

    Would like to buy a West Ham defender, but not sure who is the most secure?

    Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

    Collins. Tomkins, Demel??

    Any advice would be great!

      collins is one of the best for bonus and the cheapest but when Reid gets fit may lose his place, I'm not sure

        That's why I'm thinking Demel. I know Reid will come back at some point (or so you would think) but not sure which CB would drop out for him!

          Definitely. The Irish is underrated IMO. Ok there is no Ronaldo in the Airtricity League but there is great potential. All the best players are offloaded to England and normally given back because they don't meet the criteria of standards in English football.

          I agree though that the Irish League is completely neglected

          We really can't let it keep happening

      Yeah the diving little toerag has a better chance of winning a penalty, I hope he gets sent off for diving personally, one of the biggest cheats in the league. That is probably why Moyes has picked him, any port in a storm when you're desperate for a win.

    To everyone who read my long post on why to captain Mata this week. Let's take a short moment before this goalfest of a game.

    I want all of us Mata captainers to huddle tpgether before this thrilling game. Fulham have put out an awful team which is great.

    I hope everyone lostened to me and put Mata (c)

    Here's to hoping Mata can get his first goal today 😆
