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.

    Ive got enough for Mane>Hazard. But those fixtures are tough

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I can do Firmino / Coutinho to Hazard too.

      I am the same, I'm on 0.0 left if I do this transfer. I'm kneejerking haard

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

        Hes sky rocketing. Set to rise tonight

    3. Pompel
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Well, i thought Everton was tough even for a home match

  2. how now brown cow
    • 11 Years

    YMA to negotiate Brexit with his skills.

  3. Stimps
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    9 years, 5 months ago

    Gonna wait until tomorrows games to decide my -4 to get Hazard and who goes with Sterling

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I really wish the price rise can wait just a day.

  4. Karan_G14
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    I hope Sanchez does what Hazard has done.

    1. Jethrik
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      He can't.

  5. Viper
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Firmino -> Hazard?

    (Also have Coutinho)

    1. Andriy Shevchenko is Back
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Yes

  6. mojoindojo
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Mane to Hazard for free?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Nope

      1. GXNG
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        If you have another Liverpool mid then yes

    2. Jethrik
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Yes. Mane is a class player but the goal/assist distribution is wider at Liverpool.

  7. Delhidynamo
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Haz hattie looking likely?

    1. Le _ Professeur
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Yes very likely

    2. Andriy Shevchenko is Back
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Not anymore. Just subbed out

  8. _Freddo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    That betting article on here where they pick the captain is becoming like THE bible.

    Well done to the guy that writes it.

    1. Hooky
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      YMA is on fire!

      1. _Freddo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Read it earlier and thought there's no way Hazard is killing Everton 🙂

        Fair play.

    2. fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah, I mean I expected a 2-0 and a goal by Hazard and a goal by Costa. Not this.

  9. You've got red on you.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Okay, Firmino, Ibrah (yes I still have him) and Benteke ---> Hazard, Costa and Austin -4

    Already have Cout and no Chelsea cover

    1. Andriy Shevchenko is Back
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Good plan!

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

    To avoid -4 or - 8 would need to bring in Hazard tonight. Should I

    A Wait and take -4 or -8 if have to
    B Bring in for Coutinho (who may be rested after break)
    C Bring in for Firmino
    D Bring in for Ozil ( could wait to do that one but only Arsenal attacking player)

    1. Tomlette Greggs
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      D

  11. GXNG

        • 12 Years

      2. KingNidge
        • 10 Years

      4. Viper
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Really wish I had done Coleman -> Fuchs -4 now!

        1. Pompel
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Not to say Coleman -> Alonso!

          1. Viper
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Didn't have enough funds but I probably would have went for Fuchs anyway to be honest

      5. Chucky
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        damn haz coming off

        1. Hurricane Gilbert
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          x-) we have got to be satisfied with this score 😉

      6. Bleach †
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Well at least Ville also doesn't have players from Chelsea

        *proceeds to cry in the corner*

      7. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        NON HAZARD QUESTION!

        How did Bony play today?

        1. how now brown cow
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Sell to fund hazard.

          1. Le _ Professeur
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Lol xD

        2. devils advocate
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Get out.

        3. Live Lad
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Not as well as Hazard obviously

      8. Mini Mane Mo
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Hazard coming off

      9. andrewchy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        First hit of in a long while
        Benteke + Capoue + Walcott -> Anichebe + Hazard + Gundogan.....

      10. Leaf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        All gone quiet

        Time to get rid of Chelsea assests

      11. The Count of Monte Cristo
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Firmino + Koscielny --> Hazard + Lovren?

        Clutching at straws now to get some Chelsea into my team... 🙁

        1. Tomlette Greggs
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          not at the expense of a LIV attacker, however. Who else do you have in your midfield?

          1. The Count of Monte Cristo
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Sanchez - Coutinho - Redmond - Allen
            Lukaku - Aguero - Austin

      12. Supertrooper
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Ugh, seems like my Hazard transfer in was not confirmed in the starting xi but sits on the bench, shocking :/

        1. The Count of Monte Cristo
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Feel for you; that's even worse than not owning him. Hopefully someone will make way for him!

          1. rivercityransom
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            that's most certainly not worse than not owning him, at least he doesn't have to figure out how to get him in.

            1. The Count of Monte Cristo
              • 13 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              I disagree personally. Even if I take a hit now, that's a 4 point loss and he's missed out on nearly 20.

        2. Pompel
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Ouch, that hurts !

      13. FPL Daniel
        • 16 Years

        Blue is the colour!!!!

        1. Chucky
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Juhuuu

          Football is the Game

          1. Grand Thibauto
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            We're all together

      14. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Not doing my proposed move of Hazard and Alonso in will haunt me for the rest of my days

      15. fedolefan
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        How long left? I've lost my way behind the sofa.

      16. Chucky
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Scary thing is, it could have easily been 7 or even 8 with a bit more luck and clinicality from Costa

      17. Le _ Professeur
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Top 10k average so far 29.7 ... I'm 15 points off that

      18. tm245
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        If that is Hazard's final touch of the match, it's pretty fitting.

        ATTENTION

        We are looking for some nimble fingered men to help us create a Pedro bandwagon in order to generate a double rise and 0.1 profit for WC-ers. All those interested, please start the hype trains.

        Cheers

        How does Hazard have 5 goals in his last 4 games and still not found a way to my team?
