Gameweek 31 continues this evening with a trio of fixtures for Fantasy managers to focus on. Thereโ€™s the small matter of a Manchester derby at Old Trafford, with both sides impressing defensively in recent matches โ€“ United have kept out their opponents in all but one of the last five, whilst City have registered four back-to-back shut-outs and welcome skipper Vincent Kompany back from suspension:

Elsewhere, Arsenal entertain Swansea at the Emirates, with Arsene Wengerโ€™s side looking to bounce back from Saturdayโ€™s humiliation at the Bridge. The visitors face a tough time of it, given that the Gunners have conceded once in the last six in front of their own fans, though they are without Laurent Koscielny after the Frenchman picked up a calf injury over the weekend.

Newcastle take on Everton at St Jamesโ€™ Park in this eveningโ€™s other match. From a Fantasy perspective, this could be one for defensive returns โ€“ the Magpies have scored once in their last five matches without the injured Loic Remy, whilst Everton have mustered a single strike in their previous four road trips. Potentially good news for Seamus Coleman and Leighton Baines owners, then.

As always, you can look to our Twitter feed for news of tonightโ€™s lineups, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom is open and ready to go for those looking for real-time interaction.

        I have the same dilemma (Mata and Sterling to ship out), probably leaning towards Nasri due to extra games and I'm scared of being burned twice by Eriksen. Lallana's done nothing for me on both occasions I've brought him in then scored handsomely the week after I take him out.
