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.

  4. The Royal Robin
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Play 352 and upgrade Westwood or stick to 433 and transfer Martial?

    Current team

    Butland

    Bellerin Kompany Smalling

    Mahrez KDB Payet Sanchez

    Ighalo Martial Vardy

    (Ruddy, Westwood, Francis, Cedric)

    1. bibon27
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Having the same idea of playing 3-5-2

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

      A bit early for these.

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

        Martial out after games.

      2. The Royal Robin
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Is it? I've been thinking it through since my last FT and as Martial drew a blank today, something definitely needs to give.

        I have £4.4m ITB so I don't necessarily need to get rid of Martial, but I can upgrade Westwood.

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

          Martial is wasting a forward spot. Your replacements probably still have a game.

          1. The Royal Robin
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            So would you stick to 433, trading out Martial for somebody?

            Not upgrade Westwood and move to a 442?

  5. bibon27
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Martial to Ozil?

    1. 4vets
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      😆

      1. bibon27
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        to play 3-5-2 of course

    2. For Fuchs Sake
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      How, FWD to a MF?

      1. bibon27
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Was playing 3-4-3 all this while, tempted to play 3-5-2

    3. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years

          Haha yeah that's why I'm not too happy. Looks like I'm gonna hit 70+ with Mahrez, Ighalo, Ozil, and Vardy (?) BAPS but that's it.

          1. Numb
            • 11 Years

    4. Clump
      • 11 Years

    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    If you had Mane Payet Sanchez Özil and KDB and you just had to have Mahrez back in there who's you get rid of?

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

      Mane (because I own the rest of them haha)
