Rounding off the weekend’s entertainment, there are a quartet of teams battling for supremacy at opposite ends of the country. Liverpool search for their first in win three outings when they host Stoke City, while Tottenham Hotspur duel with Manchester United at White Hart Lane.

Liverpool’s attack is in fine fettle ahead of their double next Gameweek, given that they managed the joint-third-most goals (eight) and second-most shots on target (27) over their last four matches. However, prospective investors will be concerned that the Reds possess the joint-third-worst shot-conversion rate (8%) in home matches. As for the Potters, they’ve recorded one clean sheet in 10 matches yet conceded the joint-second-fewest big chances (two) across their previous four fixtures.

Spurs maintained their attacking dominance during the last four Gameweeks, registering the joint-third-most goals (eight), most attempts (80), joint-most big chances (10) and most shots on target (31). As for the Red Devils, they ranked joint-third-bottom for goals (three), third-bottom for attempts (36), second-bottom for shots inside the box (18) and joint-third-bottom for shots on target (10), augmenting the Lilywhites’ clean-sheet prospects.

    Mignolet is so rubbish.

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I got him in for Lloris this GW

  3. Jafooli

    Stick insect goal disallowed.....

  4. Mickey Tyrion™
    • 10 Years

    Sakho and Gabriel with 0.0 itb, which should I sort out..

    1. Trigg ⭐️
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Sakho potentially just rested?

    2. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Former's fine

    3. jg7u
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Have both of them aswell, more worried that Gabriel is gonna lose his spot.

    4. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Sakho isn't a problem.

  5. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Wow Sturridge has a lethal left foot

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      defoe level lethal?

      1. Venom Snake
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        American sniper level lethal

  6. Trigg ⭐️
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Wouldn't mind a Cout no-show. Martial could troll a few benchers.

    1. I am 42
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      i place bell ahead of martial 🙁

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Nah not v Tot. Also we all sold Toby so he is defo getting a CS plus attack points and bonus.

    When people are comparing their wildcard team to last weeks team are you taking into account you would have got players like Lukaku regardless i.e one of Kane/Vardy going with or without wildcard? No-one was really getting rid of Aguero anyway.

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I think we all knew this GW would be disappointing, hope gw34 is much better

    2. Trigg ⭐️
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I sold Ozil and Vardy well before the WC, it makes me feel better about it.

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Indeed, I had neither Ozil or Sanchez before this week.

        Vardy or Kane would have gone for me, if Vardy it would have been for a hit. Lukaku still has another game at least.

    3. Beautiful Game
      • 13 Years

      Actually they are cursing dgw33 tbf...

      Due to which they had to change and chop

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Difficult to gauge it.

        One step back in DGW33, two steps forward in DG34 means you are back to where are started and then maybe one step back again in GW35!

  8. internal error
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Liverpool are in discussions with The FA regarding the ban of set pieces

  9. For Fuchs Sake
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Cech will start the next game right?

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      He should but who knows

    2. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I think he will.

    3. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Nobody knows.

  10. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    That CB pairing for Liverpool is just rubbish.

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Sure Kolo Toure!

  11. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Hope Lovren comes on at HT

    Would rather 45 mins from him than Gabriel's 1 point coming on

    1. I am 42
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      45 mins = 1 point too

      1. Bøwstring The Carp
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        455 mins to score from a set piece though

        1. Bøwstring The Carp
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          45* 😳

        2. Trigg ⭐️
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          410 minutes of stoppage time seems excessive.

      2. Trigg ⭐️
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        + YC = 0

    2. Laurel and Vardy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Don't say that, I have Simpson waiting on the bench 🙂

  12. Toast
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Kind of glad I avoided the mass hysteria on here and kept Kane and went double on Leicester defence. Moreno also helped. Still getting a kicking with the rest of FFs for Lukaku, KDB and Coutinho! Still not too bad...

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      You're a well done toast! Quite rare

      1. Toast
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Haha! Good one! Been burnt plenty of times this season though! Been playing this game for donkeys years and it's always "Form over fixtures!". Don't let anyone convince you otherwise

    2. Trigg ⭐️
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      We all had Luka (C) though!

      1. Trigg ⭐️
        • 13 Years

        Apart from Lateriser ..

  13. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Got a feeling about Mata today.

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Depay**

    2. Chris_White
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      May get him in and TC next week. For the lols.

    3. Back on the horse
      • 15 Years

      *Lingard

  14. Godot - Fashanu Zealand
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    So.. Which of these players are rotation risks for the DGW?

    A: Gabriel
    B: Sakho
    C: Coutinho
    D: Mitrovic

    1. Trigg ⭐️
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Hoping B and C just getting a rest.

    2. jg7u
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I have them all so screw me.

    3. Big Sum
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      A: Gabriel
      B: Sakho
      C: Coutinho

    4. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I don't see any of them as more of a rotation risk than they already were when we decided to buy them (I have all 4). I'm not worried.

    5. GreennRed
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Sakho and Coutinho rested for Dortmund.

      Mitrovic might be rested due to Rafa's stupidity 😉

  15. FudgyBadger
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Damn need to get rid of Sakho quickly

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Why? He was rested, not dropped. Could easily play both games in the double. If anything ut confirms that he's first choice.

  16. Taribo West on a free
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Which teams play 35 and have a double in 37?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Ticker

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Liverpool, Sunderland and Chelsea.

      1. Taribo West on a free
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers!

  17. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    lol Crouch

  18. OLEgend
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    So will Sakho play both the matches in DGW, might play only on Merseyside derby 😮

    1. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      He's got his rest. Will start all now.

    2. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      He's had quite a few injury problems. Fair chance Klopp decides two games in a week is enough

      1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        I.e. Dortmund (14th), Everton (20th).

  19. GreennRed
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Lascelles nailed-on in light of Staylor injury and lack of defensive ability ?

    1. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I would never say nailed-on, but he should be. Taylor is so woeful.

  20. Telpuialion
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    There is a very small chance I hit 50 this week if Cout and Lovren dont play.

  21. Kasparov
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    I picked Firmino over Coutinho luckily (and kept Vardy!). How's he playing? I just started watching.

  22. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Sturridge goal, Ojo assist

    ..... snore

  23. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone else then Martial plays well within himself all the time? He's very proper and doesn't gamble much.

    Or is that just incredible maturity at this age?

    1. Stephen - Robot Daniels
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Or LVG has beaten all the creativity out of him.

  24. Shirokov(c)
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    So my WC team has Sakho, Darmian, Coutinho and Gabriel.

    I guess that's my season over.

  25. Hobolicious
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Sturridge with a goal. This GW is rubbish.

  26. andy85wsm
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    When I look at Dele Alli I feel he should be shorter than he is

  27. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Studge may be the ultimate differential from now til the season end

    1. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Yup - will be the highest scorer in the double if he plays both imo

    2. KOLASINA(C)
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I wouldnt like to see my differential in the physio room...

  28. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    YES STURRIDGE GET IN

  29. Sverdet
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Ward, moreno and studge on wc, life is good

    1. Ryan Naysmith
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Nice

    2. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 10 Years
