The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

Sunday provides a quartet of matches, bristling with Fantasy talent and the promise of points aplenty.

Three afternoon matches get us underway at White Hart Lane, the Hawthorns and the Stadium of Light, before we take a trip to south Wales as Arsenal and the on-fire Alexis Sanchez crash in at the Liberty Stadium.

The big team news surrounds today’s encounter between Spurs and Stoke, where Harry Kane, priced at just 4.8 in the Fantasy Premier League, is given his first league start after firing nine goals in all competitions. We’ll be monitoring his impact in that one, whilst keeping one eye on Everton’s Leighton Baines’ progress in the clash with Sunderland. Meanwhile, in the Midlands, we can assess Newcastle’s progress as they drop in on West Brom with an array of low-to-mid price differentials on show – not least Saido Berahino.

Once that trio of matches concludes, it’s over to Swansea and Arsenal to see us out, as Sanchez goes for his fourth double figure haul in as many Gameweeks.

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

      It is probably skewed slightly too much in favour of goal scorers (but then that is what wins games!), but the actual mechanism for scoring is available for all to see on the fpl site.
