A four-match slate of Sunday fixtures gets underway at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea host West Bromwich Albion in the noon kick-off.

Eden Hazard and Diego Costa are the main weapons of choice for Fantasy Premier League managers.

Both clinched a place in the top three of this week’s Captain Poll.

Hazard has racked up 60 of his 97 points at the Bridge, though has lacked Costa’s overall consistency. The most popular player in FPL, with an ownership level over 51%, the Spain international has blanked just twice in 14 Gameweeks.

Three goals and as many assists in four suggests that Matt Phillips is the man most likely to breach a Blues defence that’s conceded just twice in the last eight rounds of fixtures.

We’ll be looking for Scout Pick Marcus Alonso for points at both ends of the pitch today. The Spaniard – who remains a differential with under 7% ownership – has served up a goal, an assist and two clean sheets in his last three at the Bridge.

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

  16. Team Cruel

    Commentator right now: 'We can confirm that McAuley is the oldest outfield player in the PL this season'

    Interesting game.

    I've got exact cash for Firmino > Hazard... but I have other issues in Chadli and Austin. What do I do?

    1. Jimmy Boy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      If Firm blanks tonight I would suggest doing your Hazard transfer, otherwise replace one of the other two.

    3. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      5ish? Bad idea - can you stretch to Phillips/Zaha and always play them ahead of Anichebe?

      1. Brian (Not the Messiah)
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        hmm, my other option is to weaken my defense even further and bring in Siggy.

    4. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Not sure about rotation, but Can?

    Heaton.
    Lovren, Walker, Cedric.
    Pedro, Sanchez, Firmino, Siggy.
    Costa, Kane, Nacho.
    Pickford, Holebas, Amat, Whelan.

    1ft, 1.2m in account.
