Fantasy managers are hoping for an improvement this evening after the first four fixtures of Gameweek 26 served up a paltry five goals last night. Unfortunately, we only have four matches to contend with after the weather put paid to City’s game against Sunderland and Everton’s home clash with Palace.

Hopes of Fantasy returns at the Cottage are still high as Liverpool roll up to Fulham, with Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge carrying the captaincy hopes of many. Arsenal and United go head to head at the Emirates, with Robin van Persie and co facing a tough task of breaching a Gunners backline that has conceded once in the last eight in front of their own fans.

Charlie Adam has notched four times in as many home matches as Stoke welcome Swansea to the Britannia, whilst Tottenham’s trip to under-strength Newcastle offers Emmanuel Adebayor a chance to carry on the form that has seen him average nine points per away appearance under Tim Sherwood.

As always, our Dugout Discussion chatroom will support your real-time banter requirements throughout this evening’s matches.

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

    Apparently Mata is really wide and Rooney is really deep with RVP isolated up the top. Moyes trying to make his best 3 players cover as much of the pitch as possible?

      Moyes is trying to get a famous draw here! His Everton sides would have loved to be in this position away to Arsenal

    I know this will cause uproar on here but i seriously would have sold Suarez by now if i wasn't scared about having to buy his back at 13.4 or more later in the season. At the moment he is playing well too deep to be in any way viable at that price. Anyone agree?

      Been on the edge of getting rid for Studge for 2 weeks. Should have done - greater differential potential. Did Ade to Dzeko instead. Wrong wrong wrong.
