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

    Trouble at the top.

    World leader's been screwed by postponements, 2nd overall's reeled him in/overtaken him with a pretty big score. Scenes.

    Is Sturridge looking the better fantasy option??

    playing as the lone striker up front with Suarez off to the wing now.

    Gerrard on pens it seams over Suarez.

    Looking like Sturridge and his cheaper price the better play...
