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.

    Walcot to hazard
    smith to 3.9 Def
    yay or nay

    1. Respect My Authoritah

      Yeah, probably. One of the better routes I've seen

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

        He must have some money it, but yeh

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

          *money in the bank

  2. JJeyy

    Do you guys think Hazard going to rise overnight?
    because i kinda want to wait to see how sanchez does.

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      100%

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      See how he does anyway.

    Sanchez and Smith to Hazard and Alonso for a -4 point hit is so tempting...... Worth doing?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      No

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

      Selling Sanchez can be risky so NO, get both if u can.

    3. Stokelona
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      I think it is mate, don't worry that you missed the points this week that's irrelevant, and you have to make the most logical call. Hazard will match sanchez for less money and alonso will beat Smith (although obvs you can't bank on him scoring again

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

        But if you think sanchez will beat hazard then don't do it. The main reason I think hazard can match him is because arsenals fixtures get more difficult in the next 6 and hazard is on pens

      Wait until tm. If Sanchez doesn't impress you enough then go for it.

        Probably more interesting IF Giroud is picked to start..

        IF that scenario occurs, I'm looking at Sanchez to Hazard,and Sterling to Walcott..

  4. EDEN THE MAN

    Hopefully the situation will clear up tomorrow and we'll know what to do

    1. Bad performance
    2. Injuries

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      If there are injuries, hopefully it hurts those that made their transfers tonight.

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

      and Hazard rising to 10.0

    New post 😉

  6. Lucky_Z

    A) Alexis • Firmino • Coutinho • Hazard • Walcott
    Kun • Austin • Anichebe

    B) Alexis • Firmino • Coutinho • Hazard • Capoue
    Kun • Austin • Defoe

    A or B?

    Sacrifising Lukaku

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

      Lukaku fixture tho

    2. Ridgewell's scores
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      B) only because I don't fancy Anichebe. But I would only trade Lukaku for Costa atm.

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

    The only only sane route I can find to get Hazard in is this which also lets me wait for tomorrow's games.

    Out: Wilson & Siggy

    In : Anichebe & Hazard

    What do you think?

    Appreciate your thoughts!

  8. Ridgewell's scores
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Will wait until all matches are over obviously, but thinking ahead does this sound good?

    Williams & Deeney -> Alonso & Vokes?

    I could go Lukaku & Deeney -> Vokes & Costa, but I already have Hazard and don't like trading Lukaku with some of the fixtures coming up.

        Good news

    • King Kohli
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Would you do Walker ---> M. Alonso?

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

        Tough call. I think just wait until tomorrow. You never know what could happen

    • VFORVANDETA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      this my is my team now....

        Very nice

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

      is the consensus to wait till tomorrow at least before getting Hazard? I.e. wait to see if there are any new injuries tomorrow

        • 9 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I hope so
