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.

  10. Mílanista
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    After all that's happened a Costa red card would really be something.

      • 16 Years

  15. The Sarjeant
    • 12 Years

    I know there's an international break and players can pick up injuries, but doing Mata > Fábregas today seems very logical. Mata has picked up an injury, which means he may miss the next gameweek, so I'd have to ship him out anyway, plus I want to now anyway.

    Also, Mata will surely drop 0.1/0.2 and Fábregas the same, but in the opposite direction.

    I have 9.4 to spend, which means I probably won't be able to afford Fábregas if I wait until a few days before the next gameweek.

    It's now or never with Fábregas really, it's the right choice, right?

    1. gravless
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      wait a little jeez

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

      At least wait a little longer.

    3. Mr. Fish
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      I was nearly crying at the end of that, but yes it sounds like a logical move. Wait til after the game has finished tho.

  16. Gorgles

    Lucky chelsea

  17. Zombie
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Rooney/Mata/Kolarov -> Ade/Fab/Ivanovic for -4

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

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

        So just Rooney/Caulker -> Ade/Ivanovic for 2FTs and Keep Mata is better?

  18. Exeter Gently
    • 11 Years

  19. Tim Canterbury
    • 14 Years

  20. Malcolm Tucker for England …

    A little bit of distraction coming into the Chelsea team

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

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

    "We had an offer from Palace but whether it goes through or not, we'll wait and see."

    Harry Redknapp on Armand Traore.

  23. laGan1n1
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Vidal off, Pereyra in

  24. hurrrrr
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    How does this look?

    Mata + Jovetic -> Sanchez + Pelle (-4)

    Or would you rather get rid of Rooney? (would leave me 9.9m for a replacement)

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

    Costa red card possible........they should sub him and bring on........erm......

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

      Drogba?

    2. Podge
      • 14 Years

    3. Somalion
      • 15 Years

      Just put Haz up top.

    4. Zombie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Ivanovic

      I am sure he will be better than RvP/ Rooney were today

  26. Svidde
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Rooney -> Costa or Jovetic -> Aguero? Rooney will most likely drop and jovetic wont play i think

    1. Exeter Gently
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      save roon, still good fixtures coming up.

      1. Malcolm Tucker for England …
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

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

    Chelsea probably paid that sun journalist make up story, so they had an excuse to grab remy

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      They need an excuse?

    2. dr manhattan
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      they paid the release fee though didn't they? why waste money paying a journalist? doesn't make sense to me

    3. finkfankfunk
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      they're getting remy cause they got rid of torres. costa "injury" irrelevant

  28. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    The Sun lives up to its reputation

  29. Tim Canterbury
    • 14 Years

    Is Jose Mourinho single?

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      No sure he usually leaves the match early to phone the wife with the result

  30. Somalion
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 3 months ago

    Lukaku stunned by a defender winning the ball off him.

    You'd think he'd be used to it by now.

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

      It was cos they flagged him offside but he wasnt.

      1. Somalion
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        😯 So I see on the replay. Second incorrect decision regarding that so far.

    2. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      The lino flagged him offside

      1. Somalion
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Aye aye so I see.

    3. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Lukaku isn't all that good

      But apparently saying that upsets people
