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.

    1. PvA

      What shampoo?

      I'll keep posting

      1. Dr Dream

        Dunno. I was busy typing.

        For the headache?

        I'm not very good at computering.

      nothing to report

    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
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months 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
      • 12 Years

      Ssshhh 😉

    3. Long Juan Silva

      King.

  4. Bubz

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

    1. Captain Scarlet
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      And 3 assists.

    2. Gooner97

      Lucky you

    3. Revival

      • 13 Years

      Watford are more of a 2nd half team

  5. Captain Scarlet

    9 years, 5 months 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!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months 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
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

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

        Absolute perfection 😆

    2. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      No team has kept a clean sheet against Watford this season

    3. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Heaton clean sheet and Capoue goal still possible cmon

      1. Ryan Naysmith
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        And ?

      2. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

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

    4. That Was Easy!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

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

      1. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Good job, so far

      2. Cheltnamshire LaLaLa
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

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

      What happened to you Watford????

    6. wormface
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

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

      1. That Was Easy!
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months 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
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Six games worth, Amat.

        1. wormface
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

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

      3. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Amat -currently 4.1

    7. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Ighalo is a bad football player

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

      1. Long Juan Silva
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        G'man yeah, sound

    8. Gooner97

        This good to go?

        Adrian

        Baines McAuley

        Sanchez (C) Mirrallas Antonio Capoeu Firmino

        Kun Benteke Lukaku

      • SW6
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Classic Burnley at home this, hence why I'm not feeling the need to get Sanchez for next GW.
