The Dugout Discussion – Middlesbrough vs Hull City

Gameweek 14 comes to its conclusion this Monday evening as Middlesbrough welcome Hull City to the Riverside Stadium.

‘Boro’s Alvaro Negredo is the most popular Fantasy Premier League player on show tonight – the Spaniard is owned by just less than 14% of managers after netting twice in last week’s 2-2 draw at Leicester.

Aitor Karanka’s side have mustered just one clean sheet in the previous ten yet will be optimistic of defensive returns, bearing in mind that Hull have scored just once in their last three road trips.

With the fixtures set to turn in their favour from Gameweek 17 onwards, the Teesside team offer us the chance for some early festive scouting in the 8pm kick-off.

Roberto Snodgrass is the Tigers’ likeliest source of returns.

The Scot has produced more than twice the number of FPL points than any team-mate, though has managed just one goal on his travels so far.

Having conceded 15 times in their last four road trips, it’s fair to say that Mike Phelan’s side face a tough task to chalk up defensive returns tonight.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

          Will Kane rise to 11.2? Going to go Ibra > Kane (C) next week and would be devastated to miss it by .1

                  Don't see it happening, Ibra going up at a much higher rate and 90% of transfers have already been made to bring in Kane have been made.

                  I'm more hoping, that would be ridiculous to take a hit to find .1 for Kane.

                    Yeah - he was on the down last I checked at the weekend. Clearly people have had a change of heart! I need him to get a yellow card so badly hahahaha

                Gonna be 11.1 tonight, 11.2 Saturday at the latest.
                mun won't scare people away once they see he is close to rising, and then add on the ownership, IMO

                  I'm just trying to get to the deadline at 11.1 so i can have straight cash for Ibra > Kane. Who knows, maybe Ibra will rise again.
