Saturday’s events draw to a close at the Emirates as two heavyweights collide in the tea-time kick-off.

Arsenal host Antonio Conte’s Chelsea as both sides bid to keep pace with a perfect Manchester City at the top of the table.

The big team news finds Cesc Fabregas back in the Blues line-up following his midweek brace in the EFL Cup – Oscar makes way.

Fantasy managers will be more concerned with the fortunes of Diego Costa, Eden Hazard and Alexis Sanchez.

Sanchez heads into the encounter with goals and confidence flowing, although worringly, he has failed to score in his last four league appearances in front of his home fans.

Costa has five goals for the season, notching in four of his five Gameweeks, while Hazard will be looking to break a run of two blanks having been sold by over 350,000 FPL managers ahead of Gameweek 6.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Are you guys planning to captain Sanchez (bur) over Aguero (tot) next GW?
    Or Aguero (C) anyways..?

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

      Possibly.

      You?

      1. LewanGOALski
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        more & more on it, as afterwards it'll be permanent Kun(c) in the nearest future I guess

    2. SW6
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Zlatan(c)

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

        Definitely the one game I'd want Zlatan for.

        1. SW6
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Yeah it's his last game regardless for me. Hopefully send him off with a big score

        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        1. SW6
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

    3. adibo
      • 10 Years

    1. My Name Is Prince
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

    2. Venom Snake
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

  19. SW6
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Hazard ya waste of space

  20. Ne0
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Firmino, Hazard -> Lallana/Antonio, Sanchez (-4)? Sounds good?

  21. Arceus
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Hazard fails again

  22. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Costa on Pens.rejoice owners

    1. Fowler23
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Yellow card more likely

  23. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Alright Hazard needs to go now

    1. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      He no longer has the ownership too

      1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Hopefully Zlatan won't as well soon

  24. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Hazard out on WC success
    Firmino in on WC fail

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Same. 🙁 Got to give it a few weeks.

  25. BucketHead
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Firminho to Walcott could be a future transfer methinks

  26. Tirean
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Hazard = Useless

  27. Fowler23
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    From a neutral point of view Stupid to take Hazard off

  28. Swan - Villa Proud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    ML rival started Jaku and Baines. He benched Cech and Kosc. Typical

  29. Styles_X
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Does batshuayi have a clause in his contract that he can only come on after 75 mins?

  30. Long Juan Silva
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Courtois is absolutely garbage. He's a shadow of the player the he was at Atletico for Chelsea. He's shown nothing in 2 and a half years, and now he's publicly talking about going back to Spain.

    Another poor decision from José letting Cech go.
