The penultimate Gameweek of our season is here and begins with a London derby at Upton Park. West Ham entertain Spurs at the Boleyn Ground as Sam Allardyce looks to secure the Hammer’s Premier League status and, potentially, his tenure in East London. Tim Sherwood’s side provide tricky opponents, arriving off the back of a four-match unbeaten run and a 1-0 away win at Stoke last time out.

Our early kick-off is followed by a batch of three o’clock meetings which include the first of two fixtures for Ryan Giggs’ United. Neighbours City get their own Gameweek double-header underway in the late live clash, as they travel to Goodison and attempt to oust Liverpool at the top of the table.

You can look to our Twitter feed throughout the day for all the news from the teamsheets, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom is again ready and waiting those who fancy some real-time exchanges.

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

    my welbeck in for rooney pick for the dgw is a bit like my carroll pick for the last dgw (over every other striker who scored), obviously he's doing things now. No one has picked Welbeck...and instead of being that I'm canny it probably means it was the worse choice.

    Its fair to say that Spurs have suffered quite a lot of embarassment this season. Is a Downing goal the worst moment of them all?
