After a breathless conclusion to the quartet of three o’clock kick-offs, we have barely any time to regain composure before the day’s final match is upon us.

Composure is likely to be a rare commodity at Stamford Bridge, where Chelsea and Spurs collide to rekindle their stormy affair in the tea-time clash.

Fantasy managers will be focused on the output of both Diego Costa and Eden Hazard, particularly with the Liverpool midfield failing to produce at Anfield. Costa has been handed the captaincy by 10% of FPL managers, with Hazard earning 5% backing. Elsewhere, Marcos Alonso’s 39,000 new owners will be banking on a seventh consecutive clean sheet.

Harry Kane’s performance will be key to those hopes. With three kind home fixtures to following this encounter, Kane is primed for investment and Fantasy managers will be using this evening’s encounter to carefully assess his prospects.

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

    Pedro>Sanchez

  2. THEBLACKSWORDSMAN

    I have Pedro (C)!!! Pedro always comes up big against big teams!

    1. Duffo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      No way
      Link?

        1. Duffo
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Wow hats off

          Differential captain is an understatement

        2. ★Kuntheman★
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          You're nuts. 🙂

      1. THEBLACKSWORDSMAN
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Still doing terribly though haha

    2. MikeDuff
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Great captaincy. Bad team

      1. Ha.
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Not that bad on paper

      2. THEBLACKSWORDSMAN
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Unlucky* team

    3. THEBLACKSWORDSMAN
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I remember that goal against Man U in the Champions League final. Very similar goal

  3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Pedro looks v dangerous. he saves so much money, hazard has looked out of sorts last 2 games

    1. matiakez
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Pedro certainly looked the more dangerous last week to

    2. DantheManinaPan
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      disagree.

      Every time Hazard gets the ball he looks explosive. Goal incoming.

    3. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      But when Hazard turns up...

    4. Ziro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      then back to Hazard next week? 😆

    5. Granville
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Didn't they say this about Sterling.

  4. DantheManinaPan
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Pedro vs Siggy vs Mata.... Hmmmmm

    1. liiusions
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Ive got Siggy and Haz so think I'll be going Mata. Much depends on his and Walcott's performance tomorrow

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Don't forget Erisken

    3. b✪mber
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      vs Walcott - don't forget

  5. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Matic triple captain here.

    1. Lecky Legs FC
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Ah man I just not long got back from the match shame he couldnt be goal threat of set pieces today if it makes you feel better someone in my ML used the TC chip on Firmino.

  6. Granville
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Spurs rarely keep clean sheets but have arguably the best defence in the league.

    1. Patty
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Either them or chelsea

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Not without Toby

    3. some witty pun
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Its either Chelsea or Spurs

    4. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      So not that good then.

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

      With a fit Toby for sure... ropey without him

    6. The Fantastic Mr Fox
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      tbf, Toby is a big loss

  7. Optimus.
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Again my terrible team value meant I had to choose Pedro over Hazard 🙂

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      LMS is yours 🙂

    2. Jafooli

      😛

    3. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Pedro is just as good

      1. GreennRed
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        At snooker

    4. some witty pun

      poor you

    5. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years

  11. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    If ozil got as much assist as matic, we would say hes essential

    1. The Fantastic Mr Fox
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      no we wouldn't. thats just silly

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Only reason Matic isn't essential is the position he plays in

  12. Live Lad
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Any one already sold Coutinho? poor him.

    1. Flynny
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Could well do tonight....

  13. GreenArrows
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Cout > Pedro?

    1. Flynny
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Looks good option

  14. Dark_Mata
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Why did Stones miss out?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Turned into pebbles.

  15. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    22k transferred out Coutinho already....

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      The probably bought him on Black Friday and are selling for a profit

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Like me 😛

    2. In Bale We Trust
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Presuming we don't need to wait on scan results for him to miss at least next week anyway

      1. Swan - Villa Proud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        This. Even if he misses one week hell still drop 0.3 at least. Important to bank profit

      Yep.

    2. weaver93
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Why?

      Wait for injury news...Only 1 is injured...

      Deeney maybe is worth getting rid of..

      1. thep025
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Past 3 GWs haven't been particularly fruitful...... Dropped from around 3k to 12k and now dropping further

    3. Licious Lizard
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      It necessarily with that team, but I like the timing of a wildcard now.

      Think it is a good week to build value, possible injuries, a shift in fixtures, mid-week games and time is slowly running out.

      If you want to ship Aguero definitely though. But it (obviously) depends on how many players you would want to ship.

      1. thep025
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Same thinking

  17. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Surely Pedro is now an option? Scoring similar to Hazard in the last 3?

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Defo an option, yeah.

    2. BB-8
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I don't have either and I'm considering getting Pedro instead. 3 mil goes a long way

    3. ★Kuntheman★
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Gets subbed out in the 70th minute a lot

    4. dhamphiir
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      All three goals has been at Stamford Bridge

      1. dhamphiir
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        and got assist at Stamford Bridge and blank at away

  18. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    It really is amazing that Stones hasn't dropped in price yet

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Likely tonight.

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        No 🙁

    2. Optimus.
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      What's amazing it that I still have him, we've been through alot

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        I dropped him an hour ago and it felt great

      2. Mull
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        It's about the journey not the destination.

  19. Jay_
      9 years, 4 months ago

      What combo would you prefer for the next few months...

      A) Allen & Alonso

      B) Siggy & 4.5 (Chambers/Nyom?)

    • BrockLanders
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      JK on Coutinho: "If I have no idea what it is, how can I imagine how long it will be? I'm quite optimistic – I hope he can train tomorrow!”

      1. Ziro
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        😆

    • Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      5, 1, 1, 0, 2, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0

      I'm not sure I want Amat to win his place back anymore.....

      1. Ziro
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        many of those 0s are due to not playing though

        1. fedolefan
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          There are many 1s due to him playing though.

      2. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Lol

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        He's playing at least. Comes in handy saving a FT to replace him liver xmas

      5. sinik
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

        Rather have my cheap-as-hell defender playing than not, you never know.

      6. Optimus.

        I sold him for his 2 pointer 😥

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Unknown - scans needed

        2. sinik
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Wait for scan results. He was on crutches and in an airboot.

      3. Kaneyonero
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Coutinho to Sanchez?

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          1. HNI
            • 13 Years

        2. GreennRed
          • 14 Years

          That's some deal 😉

      4. Yankee Toffee
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        So should we be bringing in Siggy tonight? Or can it wait until Coutinho gets scans? Will he rise overnight?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years

          Siggy probably rises.

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 11 Years

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Maybe he doesn't want one, will score and do the baby celebration!

          • FPL Virgin
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Nope. He's tweeted that he's playing

          • GreennRed
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            They say childbirth is exhausting. From personal experience I was grand afterwards.

        2. Ha.
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Kane and Hazard goals would be ideal

          1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Kane and Alonso ***

        3. HNI
          • 13 Years

          So coutinho stretchered off...should be atleast off for a month you reckon? Actually nice timing to bring Tottenham cover

        4. Dacra
          • 11 Years

          On 50 (Inc bps) with Pedro plus 5 tomorrow to go, first good week in a while 🙂

          Could Facer do an analysis of the Coutinho and Firmino injuries tonight before price changes? thanks.

            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            He'd do a better one with scan results.

            1. Ziro
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              But that would be too late to catch Siggy 🙁
