Saturday continues with five afternoon kick-offs, before Man City see us out with the first of their two Gameweek fixtures in the evening encounter at Goodison.

Before that, Fantasy managers will be focused firmly on Old Trafford, as Ryan Giggs’ continues his tenure as United boss with an intriguing clash with Sunderland. The home side will look to build on the 4-0 thrashing of Norwich last time out, while the Black Cats turn up, scrapping for their Premier League lives and, in Connor Wickham, boasting a striker with five goals in his last three outings.

Elsewhere, both Villa and Hull get their double Gameweeks underway in the midlands, while Newcastle look to halt a slide of five straight defeats at home to relegation threatened Cardiff. Fulham share similar concerns but make the trip to Stoke in hope of furthering their chances of survival. Finally, Swansea take on Southampton at the Liberty Stadium, with Wilfried Bony looking to maintain a scoring streak of four in his last two league matches. Then, City take over with their promising tea-time clash with the Toffees on Merseyside.

Our Twitter feed carries all the news from today’s team sheets, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom remains open to collect your real-time reactions to today’s events.

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

          i think alongside bonus points, there should be penalisment points

          for fouls, (not carded)
          lost possesion etc

          i know the bps covers this but it would be good to have the three worst get

          I see Giggs' strategy is so different to Moyes'...

          Get it wide and bomb in useless cross after useless cross.

          😕

            It doesn't help that Young can't cope with a faster tempo.

            to be fair it doesnt matter who manages this team, they are dross.

            The one thing that is ridiculous is that Fergie won the league with them last season.

            Go figure.

          Giggs trying to look calm. Fergie would've been fuming by now. Shows nobody can imitate him!

            I'm surprised he hasn't made any half time changes. I'm not sure we can afford to let the game drift on in its current state.

              I think he has been a bit. Well, you can tell he learnt a lot from him anyway, from his interviews
