The second Gameweek of the season kicks off with one for the neutrals. Even at this fledgling stage in the season, the encounter between Aston Villa and Newcastle looks every inch a mid-table clash, filled with an array of budget and mid-price Fantasy assets which, while unlikely to form mainstays in our squads, still warrant our attention.

There’s certainly potential on show, with both sides fielding budget defensive curiosities in the shape of Alan Hutton and Paul Dummett. Elsewhere, Villa’s Charles N’Zogbia will continue to attempt to revive his top flight career against one of his former clubs, while Newcastle’s fresh cast of talent – notably Remy Cabella and Emmanuel Riviere – will have another attempt our turning our heads in the hunt for differentials.

The early kick-off is followed by a quartet of three o’clock clashes, before Everton host Arsenal in the big evening clash.

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

    Fair to say I'm satisfied with my afternoon, of my six players in action, clean sheets from Forster, Clyne and Williams, assists from Sig and Fab, and a goal from captain Costa. Debuchy, Ramsay, Sterling, Bojan and Rooney to come.

        I've actually got a lower score than last week, but I think the average is lower this week. Just think I'm in the mid to upper range rather than the butt-end of the rankings this time round. :p
