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.

    "Why is Holebas' ownership so low?" HMM.....

    1. HellasLEAF
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Holebas is attacking back, was never known for strong defence

    Smithy laughing from the bench. 😐

    F**k you Holebas.

      Good one, surprised it's not been loads of times already

    Was all set to bring in Deeney for Gray, and yes, complete the triple up with Capoue and Holebas but this performance is not inspiring confidence..

    1. BbBb
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Get Rashford

      1. HellasLEAF
        10 years, 22 days ago

        Tekkers, Rash, Deeney possibly even Defore is what I can afford 7.5 or less best striker for the next 5 or 6 GW?

        1. BbBb
          10 years, 22 days ago

          I sold tekkers for Rashford before the price rise on Saturday.
          Don't regret it one bit

    2. Back on the horse
      10 years, 22 days ago

      get Austin

      1. HellasLEAF
        10 years, 22 days ago

        I considered Austin and the price is good. I just don't like how he never plays the 90. but he does the business so..

    lol, you have got to laugh,

    1. HellasLEAF
      10 years, 22 days ago

      How I wish Holebas was Francis at 4.5 right about now...

  6. Arceus
    10 years, 22 days ago

    Need a Capoue goal to equalise!

  7. sminkypinky

    Figures. Smith first benched. Next week Holebas or Smith?

  8. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

  9. Gunner77-

    Next GW 12pts for Holebas

  12. Grand Thibauto
    10 years, 22 days ago

    Holebas 0 pointer and Heaton 7 pointer will give me an unexpected H2H win. Get in.

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

      Heaton ownership lower than I thought so could still be a better green arrow.

      1. Grand Thibauto
        10 years, 22 days ago

        I know right. He got 22 points with so many fixtures without including today's points. Him and Robinson is the way to go even if I WC 2-3 weeks later.

    dont panic watford lovers boydinho will do a rabona in a minute to fire them up

      Ron Swanson is my absolute hero.

        Mar 31st. He has 91 meetings...

  15. Albrightondknight

    Heaton not getting many save points at this rate.

  16. Wilshere Knowledge

    On the bright side, MrMaverick went double Watford defence. 😉

    These yellow card rules for talking to the ref are stupid as hell. FA doing their best to maintain the idea that refs are beyond mistake and not human and that the players are not allowed to feel frustration and be human..in a SPORT.

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Holebas owner?

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

        Irrelevant. They're just points, I'll live, it's not even GW10..it's a stupid rule.

    2. SAY SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT
      10 years, 22 days ago

      I agree but arguing with refs is stupid. Never benefitted anyone.

    3. PvA
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Definitely not a Holebas owner

      1. HellasLEAF
        10 years, 22 days ago

        I like the new rule long overdue.

        1. BbBb
          10 years, 22 days ago

          Agreed, it's unnecessary

        2. Long Juan Silva
          10 years, 22 days ago

          Exactly. About time footballers stop acting like brats

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

            It's a sport. There are emotion. What world do you live in?

    4. Mr. Blonde
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Moronic logic

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

        Not really. The FA has misconstrued a respect campaign with making refs beyond reproach.

        Thank fook for video technology steadily making its case for necessity

        1. nobwak
          10 years, 22 days ago

          It's a good rule but it certainly has its limitations.
          The anti-authoritarian hates it. It's not so much about "emotion is in sport, deal with it" for me. It's more about what it says to society - "accept what authority says or be punished, regardless of whether they're right or not"

          Will hate it when we see a player booked for disputing a decision that's later proven to be blatantly the wrong one, that won't feel right.

      Watford didn't score.

      yeah the change strip actually clashes on the shorts. do hope its not money related on anything

      b-but that's my team!

      1. Arceus

  21. tm245
    10 years, 22 days ago

    65 with Payet, Holebas and Capoue to play. Excited for my outside chance at a century -- when do West Ham and Watford play their matches?

    1. Grand Thibauto
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Are you in a time machine talking about next week

    2. Marc
      10 years, 22 days ago

      That's funny!

  22. WDT
    10 years, 22 days ago

    Really feeling vindicated to have waited until after this game to makes trannies, accepting price rises.

    Both targets Holebas and Pereyra booked. Pays to wait and see.

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Why would you feel vindicated about that?

      1. WDT
        10 years, 22 days ago

        Was very pro Watford in my thinking after last nights games, a stock check following this match however sees Holebas less clean sheet worthy and closer to a ban, and have been able to see pereyras temperamen. Feelings changing on the pair and less likely to bring them in on evidence so far.

    2. Rich_20
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Trannies are not made they are born. 4 game ban for you in 2020.

  23. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    F*** this game. CS impossible

  24. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
    10 years, 22 days ago

    With Watford 1 - 0 down and chasing the game the obvious move for Mazzari is to take off Capoue and bring on Kaboul ?

    1. PvA
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Yes, get Kaboul on the pitch

    2. 824545201
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Nah, better to take Deeney off for some Success.

    3. Jazz!
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Yep 🙁

  25. Pedram
    10 years, 22 days ago

    As soon as everyone play Capoue, he goes missing.

    that's the type of player we're dealing with.

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

      Stop projecting FPL on real life.

    2. TheSteel
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Hes ALWAYS missing though. Thats the thing.

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

    Holebas ran away from Hendrick as the ball came in. Now that I have seen him play not going any where near my team don't care what the fixtures are like.

  27. StalkingDwarf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 22 days ago

    I played Pickford over Heaton.

    1. SAY SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Me too!

    2. BbBb
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Same, still don't think Heaton will keep cs though

  28. Arceus
    10 years, 22 days ago

    Capoue in pain

    1. Gunner77-
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Ban

  29. PvA
    10 years, 22 days ago

    Watford comeback 2-1 imo

    1. Grand Thibauto
      10 years, 22 days ago

      Its probably going to end 1-0 or 1-1

  30. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    10 years, 22 days ago

    Watford look clueless
