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

  7. Atimis

    Despite todays games, for coming weeks would you have Dele/Eriksen (no Pool in the team) or Firmino ?

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 days ago

      Probably a Spurs mid

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 days ago

        Yeah, I have some plan to bring Benteke GW20, which inolves switching Firmino to Dele for coming weeks

        1. Kun Tozser
          • 10 Years

    2. Sif
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 days ago

      1-0 or 2-0.
      Longer it goes on 0-0 the better from WBA as they don't have to push forward and get caught on the break.

  16. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 days ago

    Who would you rather have out of those 2:

    A) Cedric
    B) Brunt

    1. Knowledgeable meerkat
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 days ago

      A

  17. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 days ago

    This is why I have double West Brom defence I suppose

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 days ago

      For the hope of points before inevitably conceding?

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 days ago

        I didn't play them in this. But yes.

    2. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 days ago

      Double Chelsea here a back 4 of all Chelsea and WBA would be solid as a rock fixture prof even when they play each other

  18. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 days ago

    Luiz is the weakest link in that Chelsea defense.

  19. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 days ago

    18' Allan Nyom from West Bromwich Albion trips Pedro Rodriguez
    17' Goal kick for West Bromwich Albion
    16' Eden Hazard from Chelsea passes the ball in the box, but the keeper comes out and claims it.
    16' Eden Hazard from Chelsea plays a 1-2 with Diego Costa.
    16' Jose Salomon Rondon from West Bromwich Albion is ruled offside

    Damn. All this time I've been thinking Hazard plays for WBA.

  20. Fowler23
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 days ago

    And ppl say Stones is the worst defender in the Epl

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 days ago

      he is

    2. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 days ago

      That's Lovren. Or Rojo.

      • 14 Years

        9 years, 8 days ago
