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.

    5 players today, 2 clean sheets, 1 assist and 2 goals with a penalty miss and 3 yellow cards thrown in for good measure. Rock N Roll!

    What's the reasoning behind always subbing Aguero off with 3 minutes left?

    Now they have no one left to score a winner

      I think it's in his contract to get a standing ovation all to himself

    1. badger1982
      11 years, 6 months ago

      That will be why he has 3bps then. The sudden jump puzzled me as I'm watching the game lol,

  26. Scoredelario
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Did Silva's yellow likely lose him any baps?

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Should have gotten a straight red too for the kung fu kick into Kane's gut while down after the rough Kane tackle. Refs totally missed that.

    2. icywrists23
      11 years, 6 months ago

      what do you think man? silly question

  27. icywrists23

  29. Piggs Boson

    Silva should be off..

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 6 months ago

      You saw that, too? That was straight red level behavior.

      1. Royal5
        11 years, 6 months ago

        It was. He tried to kick him. If the ref saw it I could/should've been a straight red.
