The world expects the 2014/15 Premier League champions to be crowned this afternoon, as Chelsea host Crystal Palace at lunchtime, requiring a win to seal the title. Elsewhere, Tottenham Hotspur locks horns with Manchester City in the tea-time kick off as firm underdogs, given that the Sky Blues emerged victorious in seven of their previous eight meetings.

For Fantasy managers, the day is all about the clash of the captaincy candidates, as Eden Hazard and Sergio Aguero go head-to-head: the outcome could well have a significant impact on the Gameweek.

Having drawn successive blanks in the Blues’ double, Hazard will look to end the campaign on a high note when the Eagles pay a visit to Stamford Bridge – the Belgian has scored in his last two home outings. Cesc Fabregas fared slightly better in Gameweek 34, notching his 18th assist of the campaign, while Chelsea’s high-ownership defenders will be favoured to deliver a fourth clean sheet in five.

Spurs will not be relishing the clash with Manuel Pellegrini’s men, considering the North London club have shipped 15 goals in their previous three meetings. A fit and firing Aguero (four goals in three) tops the list of Mauricio Pochettino’s concerns, particularly when the Argentine frontman bagging seven of those 15 goals. Nacer Chadli (two goals in as many matches) is the hosts’ form player, with Harry Kane registering a solitary goal in his last four starts. Kane’s owners will be hoping that his quest for the Golden Boot will inspire an upturn in fortunes today.

  11. Forest4Life

    Congrats to Chelsea- far and away the best team in the league this year and anyone against their style is clearly jealous. Fair play to them 🙂

    1. Bolivian Seaman

      1. Forest4Life

  12. Pedram

    Azpi is such a bonus magnet

  13. CHANCING PUNT
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Hazard likely to boosted beyond 1 BAP through winning goal?

    1. Pedram
      11 years, 6 months ago

      nope, more likely to lose bap than gain

  14. Nickofoz
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Awkward if Palace score now

  15. Jairzinho

  19. FPL Daniel

    We scored 68 goals, City is on 70. That is almost top scoring side for me

      That can't be made up

      1. RoysCallerAnne

      Good. Now you begin your road to recovery. Just admit that your life has become unmanageable . . .

    3. Reedy
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Well played 😉 Ireland get Albrighton off the bench though! 🙂

    4. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    6. Lawrø
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Nice, that dents Ireland's Aguero advantage 😀

      1. Reedy
        11 years, 6 months ago

        We'll take Albrighton's 11pts instead 😉

        1. Lawrø
          11 years, 6 months ago

          🙁

  25. DV8R

    Surely Chelsea will rest their best players now?

    Hazard -> Sanchez a crazy move?

    1. Towsor44
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Rest for what though? 6 - 8 weeks off?

      1. DV8R
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 6 months ago

        They won the league already so they can play a few of their youth

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Not sure

    Very flexible Chelsea line-up, when Palace have the ball they revert to a flat back 9 with Drogba holding in front.
