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.

    Looking at a possible 70 for this GW
    PreGW would've been well pleased with that.
    But with triple Hornets tonight - expected more
    Guess I'm been greedy now !

    Seem to have lost control of the telly tonight due to selfishness by the wife. Keep posting boys, keep posting.

    I'll let you know all about Homes under the Hammer in due course....currently on adverts for shampoo.

      There's this thing called tablets for moments like this 😉

        For the headache?

    66' What a strike from that sweet left foot of Chris Brunt! He curls home a delightful free-kick from the edge of the box (2-1) #WBA

    1. Lawrø
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Didn't Brunt used to take penalties a few seasons ago? Fpl gold in the making at a 4.9m brom defender...

    2. Chucky
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Ssshhh 😉

    3. Long Juan Silva

      King.

    Not watching the game. I assume Capoue has a brace by now though?

    1. Captain Scarlet
      10 years, 22 days ago

      And 3 assists.

    2. Gunner77-
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Lucky you

      Watford are more of a 2nd half team

  5. Captain Scarlet
    10 years, 22 days ago

    Defenders aren't looking too hot for next week, currently:

    Walker, Shaw, Baines, Smith, Amat

    Already brought Rashford in for Gray. Will wait til Friday, but tempted to bring in Koscielny or Bellerin for a hit.

    1. That Was Easy!
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Never bring in a defender for a hit has been a rule I've always tried to follow, with very little positives when I don't.

      1. Captain Scarlet
        10 years, 22 days ago

        It's usually my rule, but very, very, very occasionally it works.

      Absolute perfection 😆

  7. PvA
    10 years, 22 days ago

    No team has kept a clean sheet against Watford this season

  8. Jam0sh
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 22 days ago

    Heaton clean sheet and Capoue goal still possible cmon

    1. Ryan Naysmith
      10 years, 22 days ago

      And ?

    2. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Sub Heaton after 60 mins with CS intact and then Capoue can go mental.

  9. That Was Easy!
    10 years, 22 days ago

    So far, thrilled I benched Capoue and played Heaton and Holebas.

    1. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Good job, so far

    2. Cheltnamshire LaLaLa
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Played capoue, benched heaton for pickford.
      Not so thrilled!

    What happened to you Watford????

  11. wormface
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Is there any hint of a 4 MIL Def that plays?

    1. That Was Easy!
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Barring injury, it doesn't look likely right now. Amat was 4.0 at the beginning but has risen.

    2. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Six games worth, Amat.

      1. wormface
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 22 days ago

        Yep I have him, wanna withdrew as much money from defense

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Amat -currently 4.1

  12. PvA
    10 years, 22 days ago

    Ighalo is a bad football player

    Can't even keep the ball let alone score a goal

    1. Long Juan Silva
      10 years, 22 days ago

      G'man yeah, sound

  13. Gunner77-
