The final act of a dramatic day is delivered from Stamford Bridge, as Antonio Conte’s Chelsea seek a fifth straight victory and clean sheet from their clash with Everton.

While Chelsea’s defence will be a focus for some Fantasy managers, this is very much a tale of two strikers, with the in-form Diego Costa and Romelu Lukaku colliding.

The Chelsea man is backed with the armband by 8% of FPL managers, while Lukaku claims 4%. The Belgian has returned in six of his last seven Gameweeks and will provide a stern test for Conte’s rejuvenated defence.

Eden Hazard is the other headline act on show – he’s bidding for his fourth successive goal, having attracted more than 148,000 owners heading into the Gameweek – he’s backed by 3% with the captaincy.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Nice to have just Lukaku in this game!

    1. Hooky
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Same here!

    2. faver
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yup. No goals concede negative points

      I'm keeping Lukaku over cout and firminio

  2. devils advocate

    9 years, 1 month ago

    Contemplating Ibra -> Defoe and Redmond -> Hazard for next gw?

    Will give me a front 7 of:

    Sanchez, Hazard, Firmino, Coutinho
    Aguero, Defoe, Austin
    (Allen sub)

    Thoughts?

    I didn't get hazard to avoid -4 hit!
    This is the to forget about hits & go for it

    1. Garlana
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      -8 to get in Costa, hazard and Alonso looks easy...

    2. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Even Pedro was worth a hit.

  4. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Hazard is destroying my team as I don't own him

  5. willl
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    6.7m to spend on a mid.

    Who should I get?

    1. faver
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Hazard

      1. willl
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Already got him

        1. Krionos
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Get him again.

      2. faver
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I would say Alonso but hes a defender on fpl...

        1. faver
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Well I wont sign off either Allen or Ilkay but you missed price rises. Want until tomorrow

        2. willl
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I'm getting him for Clyne, ditching Lallana to fund it.

    2. Jethrik
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Chadli

  6. Sánchez
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Is Pedro a trap?
    I rated him before he joined Chelsea but not sire i feel i can trust him.
    But for that price? Got to be worth a punt right?

  7. Siva Mohan
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Courtois & Lukaku have a easy game.

  8. jayzico
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Need Hazard. Simple as that.

    Coutinho or Firminio out?

    1. Trading Bear
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Firminio. Less risk.

    2. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Couts for me

    3. Pirlø's Pen
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino I think.

      Pondering the same.

    4. jayzico
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      f***k nothing concrete then. Dunno, kinda prefer firminio to stay but yup, he goes. thanks

  9. Pirlø's Pen
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Who would you ditch for Hazard?

    A. KDB
    B. Sanchez
    C. Firmino
    D. Coutinho

    Hard one I know!

    1. Garlana
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino

    2. Tomlette Greggs

        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        This is no time for chil! Just look at what Chelsea are doing.

        Also, Haz is rising tonight, if you want to do the move may as well do it tonight.

        1. Dimen
          • 12 Years

    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

    1. Live Lad
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Thought he played earlier at Etihad

  14. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I can't describe how annoying it is to be 0.1 away from Mane to Hazard

    1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      You said already

  15. Chucky
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Pedro off.good for costa baps

  16. Tomlette Greggs
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Gary Cahiellini's transformation under Conte has been remarkable.

    1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Still a rubbish defender.

      When u have kante and matic in front of you. You dont need to do much

      1. Duke Silver ☑
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        And he still manages to screw up time after time.

  17. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Yeah, go away Pedro

  18. You've got red on you.

    It's okay, I have Ibrah to play tomorrow! 😀

    1. Smarty Pants
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I have a feeling his stats will finally materialize and he will get an assist.

  19. StoneMountain
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Pedro off. Costa next I think (to prevent suspension)

  20. GE
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Willliams and Walcott -> Alonso and Pedro good moves for a hit?
    Need to do it tonight to afford it.

    My team:
    Heaton
    Williams/Holebas/Fuchs
    Sanchez/Wally/Firm/Cout
    Aguero/Lukaku/Austin

    1. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Before an international break? it's risky

      1. GE
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        So wait?

  21. Pompel
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Looking at negative points from Coleman soon. Not even maverick enough to get rid of him for a hit....

        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Swansea at home is a good fixture but don't want to loose Sanchez,Firmino or Coutinho.

    2. Pompel
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago
