After United and Everton got Sunday’s events underway earlier, we now have three more matches to focus on before another international break is thrust upon us. First up, the league’s last two unbeaten teams go head-to-head at the Bridge, as Chelsea take on Arsenal in one of a couple of 2.05pm kick-offs.

All eyes will be on Cesc Fabregas as he plays host to his former club but from a Fantasy perspective, we’ll be looking for Diego Costa to continue a record that has seen him score in every home appearance so far. Danny Welbeck will also be on many a radar as the Gunners prepare for an outstanding run of fixtures from Gameweek 8 onwards.

Elsewhere, Mauricio Pochettino faces a tough task to derail the Southampton bandwagon as his former club roll up to the Lane. Spurs have failed to score in each of their last two home matches and face the top-flight’s meanest backline – the likes of Ryan Bertrand, Dusan Tadic and Graziano Pelle all carry strong form into this one and have the upcoming fixtures to flourish further.

Later in the day, The Hammers welcome QPR to Upton Park in the final match of the Gameweek. Big Sam’s side have impressed in the final third in recent weeks, with Stewart Downing’s new central role and Diafra Sakho’s clinical finishing making them the standout options for the hosts right now.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Schurrle coming off for Willian shortly I reckon

    Schurrle so wasteful today....

  3. Bubz

  4. Stupendous

    Lloris on 2baps??????

    You are a goalkeeper ffs.

    How can three saves get 2baps(as of now)

    All three goal line clearances?

    1. Stupendous
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      Eriksen, four defenders and Chadli in a one nil win no???

    2. Billy Gilmore

      His distribution would be brilliant as usual I'd imagine.

    Hazard is back baby. Dancing past challenges, he must be secretly praying Ramires stays injured so Fab will stay back.

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 7 months ago

      He only scored from pens or is he playing well today?

        11 years, 7 months ago

        Forget that he scored for a second, but he drew the tackle for the penalty after ghosting past 3 players. Since that he has made some Arsenal players look, well comical.

    Arsenal having to work so hard without the ball, and no plan B when they do have it. Can't see anything other than a Chelsea win, with a couple more goals when Arsenal tire.

    Cesc to Chadli gives serious defensive funds.

    Another idea is trade him out for Hazard, maybe its his time for a run plus he's a sweet differential.

  18. The Light Knight
    • 14 Years
