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.

    Erm seems quite a few on here agree with the Young selection over Januzaj.

    Serious question for those people...... Have you watched any Man Utd games....ever?

    Young is diabolical. Apart from a cut in from the left and shoot into the far corner (which happens once every blue moon!) the guy brings nothing to the team. He's poor defensively, cant cross, isnt strong and doesnt use his pace to get in behind ever. Shocking player!

    Terrible decision from Moyes. We should be able to beat Fulham at home with the dream 4 of Mata, Roon, Janz & RVP

      Young is a classic example of the "british player" myopia... If he was french or german or any non-british nationality he would be at a midtable/relegation outfit. So overrated, and he believes his own hype which makes its even worse. #waster

              Looking at bringing in Lallana or Mirallas. If Yaya gets a ban, will be decided for me and I'll get in a more solid 5th mid. Gnabry is a player but not nailed on. Have one eye on the Manchester clubs sitting out gw28 too. The guy I'm chasing stuck with Ade and captained Hazard. Killed me this week...

              That's what I'm dwelling on. Would rather miss yet another price-hike for Lallana. Sterling or Adam for my 5th mid too.

              The lack of Yaya coverage has stumped me, the media really do have their favourites (although he does seem a likeable chap). Wasnt expecting a frothing back page headline but theres been nothing apart from the odd thing online.
