Next up this Saturday, there are five 3pm kick-offs to keep us entertained.

Burnley welcome Liverpool to Turf Moor as Philippe Coutinho looks to add to the two-goal haul that earned him in excess of 400,000 Fantasy Premier League transfers in last week. Sadio Mane misses out for the Merseysiders with a shoulder problem, allowing Daniel Sturridge to return to the XI. James Milner comes in for Alberto Moreno at left-back.

Swansea host Hull at the Liberty, with both sides hoping to build on Gameweek 1 victories. This one looks like being a battle of the dead-ball specialists – Gylfi Sigurdsson returns to the Swans’ XI, though the Tigers have a form playmaker of their own, after Robert Snodgrass fired home the winner against Leicester last Saturday lunchtime.

Harry Kane owners will be anxiously hoping he can banish his poor run of form without Mousa Dembele in the Spurs XI as Palace roll up to the Lane. Those holding Dele Alli have been dealt a bitter blow after he dropped to the bench to accomomodate new boy Vincent Jansssen.

Chelsea’s trip to Vicarage Road give Eden Hazard another opportunity to stake a claim for a place in our squads. With spot-kick duties back on side, another strong showing against Watford could make the Belgian irresistible. Willian misses out with a calf complaint for the Blues, allowing Pedro to start on the right.

At the Hawthorns, Tony Pulis has rolled out an unchanged XI for the visit of Everton. Ronald Koeman has named new boys Ashley Williams and Yannick Bolasie on the bench, with Romelu Lukaku also amongst the subs after shrugging off a heel problem.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter
