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.

      Waiting. A 3 game ban leading up to the blank(s) is going to mean a fire sale. Not sure who the alternatives are - I guess Mata will be fairly high up the list, despite his blank and couple of away fixtures.

    That is the most tactically inept managerial performance Iv ever seen. And contrary to what Neville says, getting crosses into strikers who have no chance of competing isnt good work.

      Mata created alot of chances i would think. and recovered/intercepted quite a few misplaced passes. A few good dribbles too. Plus neat passing. The ideal performance for the BPS system.

      Struggling to find rationale to blame Moyes for the outcome of this match. Set up well - Insane number of chances created but poor defending. Evra once again shows how poor his defensive awareness is and Vidic is half the player he used to be.

        The squad certainly needs rebuilding (world class creative mid to play alongside Carrick/Fletcher, now 2 defenders and Evra replacement) but Fergie is more to blame for that than Moyes.

        You have to blame Moyes.

        plan a: get as many crosses as possible on rvp and rooney (not the best headers), play world class amc on rm
        plan b: none-existent
