Manchester United once again beckon in the new Gameweek, this time playing host to Newcastle United in a 12.45pm kick-off. The Red Devils go in search of their third successive victory, while the Magpies look to bounce back from a 2-0 defeat against Swansea last time out.

Man United recorded just six clean sheets at Old Trafford in the previous campaign but have yet to concede this season. Louis van Gaal’s charges restricted opposing teams to just one big chance over the opening two Gameweeks, underlining their disciplined start at the back.

In contrast, the Magpies have been breached on four occasions already and will have to do without suspended right-back Daryl Janmaat during their visit to Manchester. Those Fantasy managers who’ve invested in their forward line will be concerned by the fact that no side has fashioned fewer attempts inside the box (seven) than the Tynesiders.

      His heat map suggests there's at least two of him on the park. If not more. No cutting edge though!

    I had a dream last night were Sakho (C) was getting me loads of points, but he got a yellow, and then won a penalty, but took it himself and missed, ruined it. Lets hope that's half true. 😛

      You're only missing...
      The keeper got sent off and he played in goal and saved a penalty, then got sent off and because everyone sold him at once his value dropped immediately to minus 0.1

    The City-Watford game next week reminds me of their game against Reading a few years ago. Everyone loaded up and the game ended 1-0 with Barry scoring in the 96th minute.

    1. Jazz!
