The Gameweek rolls on with the final pair of Premier League encounters – both presenting fascinating scenarios, fully stocked with Fantasy talent.

The day begins as St Mary’s where Ronald Koeman’s Southampton face their first grilling as applicants for the role of a top four side. It begins with the harshest of tests against champions Manchester City, presenting a lip-smacking battle between the league’s most potent striker and its most robust rearguard.

Sergio Aguero will be the latest of the Gameweek captaincy candidates to test his mettle, against a Saints back four that has conceded just once all season on home turf. That’s just one of the key battles on show, as City desperately look to seize the opportunity to close the gap on leaders Chelsea following the Blues’ stalemate with Sunderland.

Later today, our focus switches to north London where Everton pay visit to White Hart Lane in a match that pairs two sides with top six ambitions. A host of mid-price prospects are on show, with Fantasy managers holding out for an appearance from Leighton Baines and further encouraging displays from the likes of Christian Eriksen, Harry Kane, Romelu Lukaku and Kevin Mirallas.

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

    2. Jax

      Hardly

    3. Qubit

    Loved that all the subs were made right after the 60 minute mark. Good to see that some premier league managers are finally starting to realise that their decisions have an impact on millions of fantasy teams.

    1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      well many of us feel quite the opposite on that 😉

    2. The Light Knight
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Shame they fail to realise the advantages to making early subs

  4. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    a) Costa > Rooney (FT)

    b) Clyne > Azpilcueta (FT)

      • 12 Years

  7. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

    1. JWF
      • 16 Years

      I'd like a one point cameo from Chadli just to prevent any jammy bench points coming in for people.

  10. Lucy.
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Costa to Rooney and Chadli to Eriksen is alright, yeah? Someone said they didn't like either move...

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn't get Eriksen

      1. Lucy.
        • 12 Years

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

      Chadli to Eriksen doesn't seem worth it unless he's dropped again.

  11. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Would Jose go mentally insane if Spurs beat Chelsea? I would

    1. Heydudes13
      • 14 Years

    2. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      take into account Soldado, Clichy, Glen J and a bunch of others scored this week it is safe to assume the world will end in flames in a couple of hours

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

        Bayern dont really need a keeper. 😀

    2. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

    1. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Don't tempt fate.

  25. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Got a feeling Barnes is going to score next...

    Opens bet365

    1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
      • 14 Years

      Baines

      1. JWF
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Keep your winnings safely tucked away!

      2. Heydudes13
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        He's playing shite!

        1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Doesn't have to play well to score a pen

    2. Sif
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Ashley Barnes could score next. Plays 7:45pm on tues.

      1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        John Barnes is more likely

  26. RubeRx
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Barkley looks like he is finding his form. That strike after Lukaku offside tells me alot.

  27. JWF
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Typical Spurs now. Making it hard on themselves.

    1. Mull
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Grinding out the wins though.

      1. JWF
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        This isn't over yet.

  28. Mull
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Why is McGeady on corners over Baines?

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

      Baines cant be bothered to run over there.

    2. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      pages will fly if Baines score

  29. Boss Hogg
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    A. Costa and Chadli

    Or

    B. Kane and Hazard

    ?

    1. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      B. Beginning to think I should have gone for Kane over Ayoze.

      1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
