The Dugout Discussion – Everton vs West Ham

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

      Sanchez/Payet to KDB
      Deeney to another striker
      Or should I fix Sanchez/payet and deeney instead of my GK?
