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

    Semi-benchwonkery fail - played McAuley (thinking he wouldn't really start), with Amat points staring at me from first def sub 😮

    1. Ayew Serious
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Not a fail yet 🙂

      I have successfully benchwonkered Siggy

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        I played Kone instead 😛

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

      Think he'll play today but benched in midweek (for Mata), then back in the team next weekend

      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Utd look much better with him, so I dont see why not. But it's Mourinho so god knows.

    3. bakayoko
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago
