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.

  9. RoysCallerAnne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    Remy (c) switches to Aguero.

    The only reason I didn't VC Hazard was just in case the Chelsea match was cancelled for some reason.

    Have Silva too. Mwahaaahaa

        1. Camp No No
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 5 days ago

          On the contrary, we need a Kane double here.

      Was Kun even nominated for PFA Player of the season award? Criminal if he wasn't.

        Not that I recall. Utter joke.

        • 12 Years

        Nobody is safe.

        Would expext terry and haz to keep playing.

    14. Cocky Spaniel Alves
      • 14 Years

      Haz 1 bp or none?

      1. ellelelle
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 days ago

        none

        1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 5 days ago

          Even with the winning goal bps added?

          1. ellelelle
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 5 days ago

            yep! doesn't look like he'll get anything.

        2. walkman666
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 5 days ago

          Such a shame. He drew the penalty, scored the game winning goal, and no baps. Poor algorithm that makes little intuitive sense In such instances.

          1. ellelelle
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 4 days ago

            I can't get my head around the system yet. Some defenders clearly do well under it but maybe disproportionately so?

          2. Ruth_NZ
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 4 days ago

            He missed a penalty. Penalty takers have a big enough advantage so only fair that they suffer on BPs when they miss.

    15. Bobby

      Finally some football to watch today.

    16. The Bandit
