Gameweek 11 serves up a half-dozen early-afternoon kick-offs for Fantasy managers to sink their teeth into. The top four scoring sides this term are all in action, with Manchester City’s home tie against Norwich City shaping up to be a Fantasy goldmine.

Over the last four Gameweeks, Man City ranked second for goals (12), big chances (12) and shots on target (31), despite drawing 0-0 with Manchester United last time out. Moreover, the Sky Blues have tallied six more goals (17) and 10 more shots on target (43) in their home clashes than any other team, highlighting their dominance at the Etihad. Ally this with the fact that Norwich City rank second for goals conceded (13) and first for shots inside the box conceded (58) in road fixtures, and the Canaries could be in for a long afternoon.

Arsenal go in pursuit of their fifth successive win when they lock horns with Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium. The Gunners have dominated the attacking metrics in the last four Gameweeks – ranking top for goals (13), shots inside the box (60) and big chances (14) – and will be encouraged in the knowledge that only five teams conceded more shots inside the box than Swansea (34) over that same period. There’s also scope for the Swans to improve in the final third, given that only Watford (eight) and Aston Villa (10) chalked up fewer attempts on target (12).

The unstoppable force meets the immovable object as Leicester City make the trip to West Bromwich Albion. The Foxes chart third for goals scored (20) this campaign and haven’t drawn a blank in 10 Gameweeks. In addition, only two teams have netted more goals in road fixtures (nine) than Claudio Ranieri’s troops. The Baggies, meanwhile, rank top for clean sheets (five) since Gameweek 4 and only conceded in one of their five home match-ups – so something’s got to give.

Crystal Palace will look to secure just their third win in seven outings when they play host to Manchester United, who’ve notched three shut-outs in four matches. Newcastle look to dispel their derby-day blues as they invite Stoke City to St James’ Park, having put six past Norwich in their last home encounter. Watford’s head-to-head with West Ham United at Vicarage Road caps off the day’s Premier League action, with the visitors striving to extend their seven-game unbeaten streak.

      Same as. Although still have Mané, Cedric and Lolkaku (c) to play.

      Didn't foresee Citeh conceding and Jones getting dropped.

    1. Lord of Ings
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Mane(C) btw

  7. Je suis le chat
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Have lolarov, at least his ballsing up the peno took potential points off Sterling and Bony ( posdible peno takers).

  8. Kingston
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Who to trade hazard out for? Ozil or payet?

    1. Rolls-Royce
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      No doubt Ozil

    2. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Özil

  9. SouthCoastSaint
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Hey Ozil owners out there! Let's all do a jig together

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      😀

    2. theeribert
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      😀 he's the best

    3. VS10_
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      He is so consistent 🙂

    4. dcarlito
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      You need to be transparent and tell everybody about your Mahrez benching 😉

  10. seanie3
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    didn't bony take pens at Swansea when siggy wasn't on the pitch,, just wondering why he didn't take it today and why it was kolorov

    1. davies
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      He took them anyway.

      Dunno, probably because he's a senior figure and Bony is new/doesn't want to demand the penalty.

  11. Rolls-Royce
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Ozil to rise tonight?

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Possible, but likely tomorrow. May double rise this week

  12. Swan - Villa Proud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    44 post BAPS so far, but with 4 to play including Mane(c), I still have hope.

    Oh, thanks for the halloween gift Kolo. 🙁

  13. Lord of Ings
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    KDB or Darmian BAPS?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      0.

    2. Acquafresca
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Negative.

  14. Johnny98
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Damn. I played Mahrez but benched Albrighton. Still, not exactly sure who I'd have played him in front of. Glad he's doing well again at least.

  15. Clumsy Sakho
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Costa likely to be banned?

  16. dcarlito

    "LOL" at [insert FPL fail here]

    1. ARKANOIIDE
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Mahrez benchers, dont understand how could someone be so silly.

      1. SouthCoastSaint
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        I benched.
        Away to defensively sound west brom. Had

        Barkley Sanchez Ozil Yaya
        Kane Pelle Vardy

        Still happy with my decision. Just unlucky

        1. dcarlito
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          You could not be happy with that decision.

      2. dcarlito
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Neither do I. Crazy stuff, he is fpl gold at the mo, on fire.

        Jones being in the "red zone" was a killer for me and bring Kompany in and Citeh conceding.

      3. ARKANOIIDE
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        I bet if he would cost 11m and play for ManC or Arsenal no one would ever bench him, for me benching him is like benching Kun, fixtures doesnt matter, if youre playing godly you just do that, i still read people hesitate on keeping or selling Hazard 😀

        1. dcarlito
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Agreed. When he is racking up the points keep playing.

  17. shirtless

    Sterling (c) + Kolarov = end of game melt down!!!

    1. Werkself
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      OUCH!

  18. Slam

    The sites getting me mad.
    I'm going outside

  19. Zombie

    Kolarov fecked all of FFS it seems

  20. C_G
    • 10 Years

    41 post baps, with Pelle (c), Alderweireld and Lukaku to go, anyone worse?

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 11 Years

      Same...different players left

  21. SouthCoastSaint
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Kosc on for 3
    Campbell 2
    Ozil 1
    At the moment anyway

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      How only 1? and Campbell on 2? What a joke

      1. Huddersfield
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        24 for a goal , 18 for 2 assists

    2. Harper_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Kosc showing all the Bello owners

    1. Wirtzle Gummidge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Pretty much the same as mine.

  22. Lord of Ings
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Should I just do Sanchez-->Ozil(FT)?

  23. KOLASINA(C)
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    So it seems that Southampton - Bournemouth will be a hauler.

  29. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    I was thinking the whole week about Azpi to Otamendi, but decided to go with Ayew -> Mane. Decisions.
