Easter Sunday provides a trio of Premier League fixtures that promise to resolve many an unanswered question at the top and bottom of the table.

There’s no doubt that the Carrow Road clash between Norwich and Liverpool is the headline act: while the Canaries are fighting for their lives following Sunderland’s unlikely win at Chelsea, they will face a Liverpool side focused on putting daylight between themselves and the chasing pack at the summit. Luis Suarez arrives in East Anglia having scored consecutive hat-tricks in the fixture in previous seasons and with many a Fantasy armband clasped on his bicep. Neil Adam’s side, meanwhile, have conceded just one goal from open play on home turf since the turn of the year. The statistics and form books may well stand for nothing, however – we’re expecting high drama aplenty from the mid-day kick-off.

That’s followed by a pair of matches that will go a long way to resolve the race for fourth spot. Arsenal visit Hull for a dress rehearsal of their FA Cup final date, followed by United’s trip to Goodison park as Everton look to recover from their midweek slip at the hands of Palace. With an array of Fantasy talent on show, both fixtures are likely to have an impact on our squads and mini-leagues before the Gameweek concludes under the lights of the Etihad tomorrow evening.

As always, you can look our Twitter feed for the latest teamsheet news, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to serve those searching out some real-time interaction.

      Most surprising to me was that they waited until the goal to show any desire to control the match.

    It seems we usually have either a title race or a CL race, but this year we have both. Every week seems to have had an essential duel, and Liverpool-Chelsea and Everton-City are still yet to come in the next two weeks. Awesome.

      Avoid the defence. Roon still worth a gamble if you have the money and are prepared to swallow Connor Wickham outscoring him.

    Anyone else shifted their opinions on Kagawa from feeling he doesn't get a chance to take a place to wanting him to leave. He brings nothing to the table, naught.

      Funny how everyone would defend Mata because he can't play on the wing yet Kagawa, who genuinely isn't great on the wing, is expected to adapt even though he's much better through the centre. I think he's absolutely wasted at United and the sooner he gets back to Dortmund the better.

        I'm with you on Mata but 2 wrongs don't make a right and Kagawa has had time enough.
        I too would hope he gets back to Dortmund + bag of money and let us have someone else.
