Burnley and Watford go head-to-head at Turf Moor this evening in the final fixture of Gameweek 6.

For many Fantasy managers, this match will be the first time Etienne Capoue has been afforded a place in their starting XIs after netting four times in the opening five.

Now up to 5.1 in Fantasy Premier League and sitting in 40% of sides, Capoue heads a host of Hornets options looking to catch the eye as the fixtures turn kind for Walter Mazzarri’s men.

The likes of Roberto Pereyra – with attacking points in all three appearances – Odion Ighalo, Troy Deeney and Jose Holebas will also be closely monitored as the fixtures now fall in Watford’s favour.

The hosts are without the suspended Andre Gray for the next four, with Sean Dyche relying on Steven Defour and Sam Vokes – the only other Burnley players to score this season – to breach Mazzarri’s rearguard.

Tom Heaton has earned at least one save point in four of his first five and looks set to be kept busy as the visitors attempt to build on the back of successive wins over West Ham and Man United.

      **Most competitive league

      1. pompeyfan
        • 16 Years

        4 point gap after 6 games. Maybe 10+ by the end, like last yr

        1. HuttonDressedasLahm
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          As in, more teams "could" win it

          Italy is nailed
          Germany nailed
          Spain 1 of 2
          France nailed (until this season£

    Capoue being rubbish really went under the radar

    1. Pedram
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Holebas rubbishness overshadowed him

      1. gwitbrock
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        at least Holebas has had a couple of good moments, and still don't know what the yellow card was for which really stunted him early on. Capoue looks like a sunday league player, and so so slow.

      2. gwitbrock
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I wonder what odds I'd get on him getting zero more goals this season.

  11. WDT
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    32 mins away from my theory coming true that Capoue will regress to the mean on account of unsustainable conversion rate. Just trying hard to justify not having him.

    1. Worzel Gummidge
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Your theory? haha

        1. WDT

          I wasn't claiming it was mine alone no. a little quick to laugh there

            Read that in a Paul Scholes voice. Suited the comment too 🙂

            • 10 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Yep, every theory gets justified after 90mins of football. There won't be any more games played this season.

            • 10 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Your theory? Its common sense he couldn't keep it up. Plus it's not his conversion rate that was the problem, that was what he was amazing at. It's the amount of chances he was getting.

            1. WDT
              • 13 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              His conversion rate was indicative of how few chances he was getting. The emphasis wasn't on the theory being unique or mine, more that I wasn't buying the hype or him.

            I hope not. Im trying to do kdb and diomande to sterling and rashford

            I currently have no utd players which scares me if im being honest. Esp if rooney stays on the bench

          Obviously Defour is way better and seems to be more promosing on FPL than Capoue, but that feeling.. i wouldnt be surprised if he scores again even though i barely hear his name on the pitch tonight.

          I can see me missing Heatons second clean sheet of the season by leaving him on the bench.

            A is safest. Proven goalscorer on pens, but terrible team.

            B is most explosive, but depends which MUN turn up and whether he gets the requisite minutes.

            C is the cheapest, but not convinced with game time and fixtures.
