Saturday’s modest points returns pile expectations on to Sunday’s trio of encounters, as an assortment of prime Fantasy assets take to the turf.

It all begins with a pair of lunchtime kick-offs, as Spurs entertain Newcastle at the Lane and Burnley host Everton up at Turf Moor. Fantasy managers will be looking to the likes of Leighton Baines, Nacer Chadli and Christian Eriksen to provide some early cheer, before attentions turn to the main event at Old Trafford at 4pm.

United and Chelsea meet head-on in one of the season’s key clashes. It arrives in time to find Jose Mourinho’s Blues flying high on top of the table, while Louis van Gaal’s United struggle to break out of a state of flux.

The script points to a comfortable away win, with Fantasy managers eagerly awaiting the visitors’ team sheet and the potential “revelation” that Diego Costa defies the claims of his manager to spearhead the Chelsea attack. We’re in for a fascinating afternoon.

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

  9. VougieDipond

  10. The Machine
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

  11. Captain Shirokov
    • 14 Years

  12. Kerrazy
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    yep that's how many assist(s) alltogether ? still Baines not worth it? 😆

    1. copps
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      1G 6A so far

      1. Kerrazy
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        i think that's a pretty fair score for the price he cost.

        1. copps
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          he will score over 200pts this seasons i reckon, considering everton's defence and team are strong now

  13. copps
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Baines you Boss

  14. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    • 12 Years

    who says baines is overpriced? 7.1 is a budget

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I'd pay that alone for hi if he were a mid

    2. 1314
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      yes..i never understand how could a value like him only rose 0.1 this week after 15 points..

      1. money face bandwagon
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        wait till he climbs to the top of fpl defenders...the casual will notice 😀

  20. Mark

    Six assists and counting for Baines in a season where his initial price was at its cheapest since 2009. Whisper it..."essential"?

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Could feasibly be on 60 points already had he scored that pen

    2. meerlight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      He's looking very good at the moment. Essential for now...

  21. The Finnisher
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Twice Baines has assisted and ended up on 2 or less so don't get too excited 😉

    1. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Burnley won't score 6 though.

      1. The Machine
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Red card and a peno miss then

    1. Sean
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

  22. PogChamp
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Baines is useless for England.

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Who cares? this is FPL

  23. Heydudes13
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    1. Jax
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago
