Sunday afternoon treats us to a pair of Premier League fixtures, with Everton hosting West Ham at Goodison in the early kick-off.

The Toffees’ Romelu Lukaku clinched second place in this week’s Captain Poll, having scored or assisted in five of the previous six Gameweeks.

Those who opted for the big Belgian over yesterday’s two-goal heroes Alexis Sanchez and Sergio Aguero will be hoping he extends a record that has seen him score in all eight appearances against the Hammers since moving to Merseyside.

Yannick Bolasie – with attacking points in four of his previous six – will also fancy his chances against a defence that’s conceded nine times in four away fixtures.

Dimitri Payet is the Hammers’ form player, serving up a goal and five assists in six since making his first start of the season in Gameweek 4.

Michail Antonio has dropped in price in each of the last three Gameweeks due to a four-match drought, yet he looks set to reprise a role up front today, having led the line in West Ham’s midweek cup win over Chelsea.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Have to say that was ridiculous defending by Ogbonna. You could see the Rom cross with his left foot coming from Anfield.

  2. Arceus

    9 years, 6 months ago

    Lukaku Essential.

  3. Bolivian Seaman

    wow us lukaku owners have been very lucky

    1. ★Kuntheman★
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Without a doubt but that's why it's amusing

    2. Eskimooo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      What was lucky about that assist ?

      1. Bolivian Seaman
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        he's hardly had the ball, not his fault though

    3. Scholes Balls
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      What is lucky about a striker in-form playing against a team he fancies with a weak defence.

    4. Arceus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      No luck was involved

      Got less points than Sanchez and Aguero ...

  5. Del Griffith
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Points Guaranteed every game v West Ham for Lukaku. Incredible

    Foster grant
    Walker Williams smith Amat Kingsley
    Payet Walcott firmino Allen Matic
    Aguero lukaku ibra

    I'm very tempted to leave my team alone, I am fully aware zlat isn't performing but I like the balance to my team and it would take a fair few transfers to move him out and replace with a big hitting midfielder. Plus I think he will hit form again before December at some point!

    West Ham won't score

  9. Krul Runnings
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    I guess us Lukaku that didn't captain him are not overly enthused about this, right?

    Was a good chance to gain on those that captained him and pretty much everyone owns him anyway.

    1. Scholes Balls
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      well 32% is high but not that high

  10. fordy049
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Is Clayton nailed on at 4.3?

    1. Give The Todd Some Love
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      No

  11. Jay_
      9 years, 6 months ago

      If you only own Lukaku here, non C, West Ham goal is essential to get a green from overnight score.

      1. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Not if you own Williams.

      2. Krul Runnings
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Williams is helping

      3. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Why? Not that many people own Everton defence

    • StoneMountain
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Hand up if Lukaku is killing your season slowly but surely o/

      Imagine taking Lukaku out instead of Ibra in GW8 😆

      1. Scholes Balls
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Dont have to imagine

      2. Blanka
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Snap. Keep convincing myself Ibra is going to come good! Price dropping like a mother, tho. Where as Lukaku is just going up!

      3. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Lukaku Sunday captain in Sky but don't own him in FPL. So conflicted as I am not used to giving a crap about Sky yet I am doing better at it.
