Five three o’clock kick-offs follow on from Chelsea’s clash with the Toffees at the Bridge, before our day’s entertainment is concluded at Selhurst Park where Tony Pulis attempts to erect “fortress Selhurst” ahead of the visit of Manchester United.

For now , however, our attention is elsewhere, as Arsenal host Sunderland at the Emirates and Man City face up to Stoke at the Etihad – it’s fair to say we’re expecting strong home wins and Fantasy points aplenty in both cases.

West Brom and Fulham fight out a relegation six-pointer at the Hawthorns, while West Ham continue their quest to find mid-table comfort against an in-form Southampton. Cardiff’s crucial home clash with Hull City concludes the programme before our focus turns to the evening kick-off.

You’ll find that our Twitter feed has all the lineup information, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom remains open to cater for your real-time banter requirements.

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

    Silva really was frustrating earlier. Heavily involved in the final third but rarely getting close to points. Worst of all was when he had that good chance late on and instead of shooting he tried to pass and set up fecking Yaya.

    Wildcard owners, What's the consensus on which week to use it?

    I have 2 free transfers in the bank, but I am tempted to use my remaining wildcard now to make some profit. I have too many city players, Mata, and Azpil. I would prefer Ivanovic or Terry.

    Here's my team, some advice to a first year owner actually in first place by 40 points? (blushing)
    Boruc (Davis)
    Kompany-Kosc-Coleman-Azpil-Ward
    Silva-Mata-Hazard-Gerrard-Mutch

        Hmm...the price rise of Nolan may screw me over.

        My plan was:

        Silva>Nolan this week
        Flanagan>Chester next week
        Adebayor>Aguero the week after

    Think I'll wait until Liverpool and spurs have played before I get Sturridge and Adebayor, if that means having to pay 0.1m more for each player so be it, I've been burnt too many times before with early transfers.

      Price becomes less and less important the closer to the end of the season we get.

        Indeed catch the price rises and build team value in the 1st half of the season.

    Time for Vlaar to score a goal or two, I think. Need a bit of mean reversion.

    GK:Mannone, Speroni
    DEF:Terry, Azpi, gabbidon, Collins, Coleman
    MID:Yaya, Zaha, Puncheon, Hazard, Lallana
    ATT:Suarez, Studge, Ade
    0.4 mil in bank 2 FT

    How about Yaya and Zaha to Nolan and Noone? this would give me more players and get me closer to Aguero as all I'd have to do is Nolan>Yaya, Terry>Chambers, and Ade>Yaya

    Thoughts?
