Saturday afternoon continues with a quintet of fixtures to entertain us before Everton square up to Chelsea later on. For many, the main focal point will be at the Etihad as we look to see whether Sergio Aguero will be let off the leash against Stoke, with Stevan Jovetic’s owners anticipating another home brace from the Montenegro striker.

Newcastle have been heavily backed in this week’s Scout Picks and we’ll be hoping to see new boy Siem de Jong justify our show of faith ahead of a very kind run of fixtures. Fantasy managers will also get to run the rule over Palace’s potential in the St James’ Park encounter as Neil Warnock takes the helm for a second time.

Elsewhere, Fantasy favourites such as Steven Caulker will be hoping to make an impact at home to Sunderland, while Gylfi Sigurdsson’s growing band of owners are expecting returns for the third Gameweek in succession as Swansea prepare for the visit of West Brom. West Ham welcome Southampton to Upton Park as Big Sam pins his hopes on Mauro Zarate to inspire his side to another win.

You can look to out Twitter feed for all the lineup from today’s matches.

    • ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years

    • Licky

      God I love Daryl Janmaat.

    • ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

      coloccini and ward fight

      1. Woy
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Anyone KO'd?

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          coloccini hair cushioned the blow

          1. Woy
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            He's fortunate there then...

          2. FPL Daniel
            • 16 Years

            Red cards for both ?

    • Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      5mins for Aguero...

    • Svidde
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Mata -> Nasri or Silva? Have rambo, sterling and siggy and cant afford fab

    • Dr. Rog
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Last minute transfers in of Duff, Janmaat (and Hazard) paying off!

    • Timtastic03
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Jovetic to play 90then ? Aguero probably still isn't ready to play 90 so comes off for dzeko. Other usual change is Navas for Silva/Nasri and Fernandinho for the other striker with Yaya moving into the no.10 position but he's already been brought on.

      1. Nabs Kebabs
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        this is my thinking aswell

      2. andyinasia
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Fernandinho already on - Fernando twanged his groin.

    • Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Moses was in the Samsung Galaxy team right?

    • Stupendous
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      My H2H casual opposition has Janmaat

      Gtfoh!!!!!

    • OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Aguero off at 60 min max

      1. Granville

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years

        Doesn't look fit at all.

          You watching?

    • RyanC
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      As things stand, looks like it could well be a pretty low scoring week, right?

      1. DIegoCosta19
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        yes

      2. Sheep Flavour
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        True...but way to early to say...not even Saturday HT yet.

    • DIegoCosta19
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      overall people here are doing a lot better than last year

      remember the template team was coutinho hazard mirallas even soldado and they all started poorly

      1. Sheep Flavour
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Mirallas had a good start didnt he?

      2. pompeyfan
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Soldado started well, a couple of pens

    • ZakAFC_
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Juan Mata out for 2 months apparently.

      1. Hibbo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Where'd you hear this?

      2. Mr Smith
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years

      3. The Bandit
        • 15 Years

      4. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        😯 Blessing in disguise?

      5. Geordienufc1
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        That's bull, now could they know that already.

        1. Woy of the Wovers
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          They called the Costa injury.

      6. Nabs Kebabs
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        source?

      7. dribbler
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        what was the injury?

        1. Bucky Barnes
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          A crippling lack of form

      8. The Chosen One...
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Like Costa was out for 6 weeks...

      9. RyanC
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        I feel bad for Mata, I really do.

        But I feel even worse for these repliers:

    • Bøwstring The Carp
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      At this rate their points will be:

      Dzeko (1) Aguero (2) Jovetic (2)

    • Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      City will still win. But its not looking like a thrashing (hopefully)

    • ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      pelle the donkey

    • FISSH
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Southampton playing very much on the left hand side of the pitch. Clyne not very involved really.

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        this happened last GW too

        Bertrand looking the better pick

        1. FISSH
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          hmmm
          goal just came from the right hand side. Thought it was Clyne 🙁

    • Mr_Partridge
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      How have Stoke gone and shut City down. Looked crap last two games 🙁

      1. Mull
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Because they're not trying to win.

      2. Stupendous
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Bus well and truly parked

      3. Banana Shaqiri - HMD, PUP
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        When you beat a team of the calibre of Portsmouth, it serves as a catalyst to go on and do well.

    • getfunky
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      was there much gloating on here earlier when mata went off injured after last wk?

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        People were too busy laughing at Man U. 😉

    • Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I suppose city can't take off Jovetic

      Already made one transfer, and aguero not up to 90

      1. Sheep Flavour
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Lets hope they can.....

      2. Not Irish
        • 12 Years

        Now you're thinking.

    • Svidde
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Mata -> Nasri or Silva? Have rambo, sterling and siggy and cant afford fabregas

      1. Sheep Flavour
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

    • Wouter
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      1. ronty
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Siggy needs his goal to make my captain choice look good

    • Heydudes13
      • 14 Years

      1. Pork Pie Sausage Roll
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        I'm sure Citeh will score. Have they not scored something like every home game for the past couple of seasons bar the Chelsea game?
