Sunday treats us to four matches, kicking off with a noon encounter at Vicarage Road between Watford and Man United.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic carries the armband hopes of many Fantasy managers heading into this one – the Swede narrowly topped this week’s Captain Poll off the back of four goals in as many matches.

Etienne Capoue has the chance to prove himself worthy of a fourth midfielder slot today. Having scored against Southampton, Chelsea and West Ham, the Frenchman is set for a favourable run of matches that could bring in the points.

Similarly, Odion Ighalo, Troy Deeney and Jose Holebas are also under the spotlight after all three got amongst the goals in last week’s comeback win over the Hammers.

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

      Fellaini and Rooney in midfield, that's not a top 4 midfield. That's about 7th or 8th

      Blind for Fellaini and Herrera/Mata for Rooney, then United won't look so laboured!

        Yeah Rashford is a better alternative, got Costa in my squad looks like I can pose my midfield a little bit more.

    • Arteta
      • 10 Years

    • Costa Nostra
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Shaw and Valencia are a waste of space on anyone's team.

      Thoughts on WC team? -

      Heaton - Pickford

      Williams - Holebas - Smith - Gibson - Amat

      Sanchez - Sterling - Firmino - Antonio - Capoue

      Aguero - Lukaku - Deeney

      1. glufs
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

        Very good. Sure about Deeney?

      Hats off to Watford.

      Showing us what it means to play with heart.

      Disgusting performance from us and Jose better react, eg. drop Rooney (and a handful of others who deserve it also).

      Embarrassing!!

      This season is quite frustrating.
      Really struggling to find any joy in FPL, starting to take this way too serious.

        Time to take a break if that's the case.

    • Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      At least this game makes it easy to do Ibra to Kun now.

      1. davies
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Still got points though..?

        1. Lecky Legs FC
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Kun will outscore Ibra throughout the course of the season.

      Rejoice Iheanacho (c) over Zlatan

      How Rooney still starts for United and England is beyond me. Most overrated player in the world.
