Sunday’s final match takes place at St James’ Park as out-of-sorts duo Newcastle and Everton go head-to-head.

Having ended Chelsea’s unbeaten start to the season, Alan Pardew’s side have subsequently lost each of their last three, though in Papiss Cisse, they have a forward in form – the Senegal striker took his tally to eight for the campaign by spoiling United’s clean sheet on Friday afternoon. We’ll also be keeping an eye on our Spot the Differential pick Moussa Sissoko – the Frenchman has scored or assisted in three of the last four in front of his own fans.

The Toffees have lost three of their last four as second-season syndrome kicks in under Roberto Martinez. A run of eight matches without a clean sheet has persuaded many Fantasy managers to look for alternatives to Leighton Baines – the visitors’ chances of keeping out their opponents have been dealt a blow after Tim Howard and Phil Jagielka were ruled out through injury. Further up the pitch, Martinez has dropped Romelu Lukaku, Ross Barkley and Kevin Mirallas to the bench as he shuffles his pack to deal with the festive schedule.

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