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

    1. Kaneyonero
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Is he fine or what?

  12. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Hazard isn't coming off? What's everyone on about?

  13. The Left Duke #3
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Some overreaction on this site when someone gets badly tackled. You swear they got shot lol

    1. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      It's a joke

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Unfortunately the players react the same way.

      1. The Left Duke #3
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Which they probably do to buy a bit of time and milk it to get an opponent a YC......which is no excuse for everyone to overreact on here, probably just non-owners wishful thinking

    3. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      He was acting like he had been shot tbf.

  14. ILOVEBAPS
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Is Costa even playing?!

    1. Yankee Toffee
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      CHELSEA 0-0 WEST BROM

      34: Hazard picks up the ball on the left, plays a one-two with Costa and bears down on the West Brom goal. He cuts inside Dawson and Brunt but over-hits his shot on goal.

  15. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Haz is fine

  16. French Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    boring boooooring Chelsea

  17. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Hazard could catch a penalty here !

  18. Bubz
    • 12 Years

    Hazard is fine.

    We need one dedicated commenter per match. Too much conflicting information!

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

      I nominate Bemba Da

    2. Worzel Gummidge
        9 years, 9 days ago

        You mean the same people posting utter nonsense as per usual?

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

      Hazard running freely again he ran it off

    4. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      What are we thinking will happen in the Utd Spurs game?

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        0-1 IMO

      2. French Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        0-0
        boring tactical game

        1. _Freddo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          0-0 is a good shout.

      3. Plutocracy
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        30 shots combined for Ibra and Kane.
        Nil all.

      4. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Bore draw.

      5. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        I honestly thought there might be goals

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

        2-2 or 3-3

    5. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      It's as boring as Pool vs Utd...

      1. bojack
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Pulis / Mourinho effect.

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          You can understand why Pulis does it though.

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

            Yeah. Anyway Chelsea could speed it up...

    6. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Just thought my captain my going off

    7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Costa has had like 2 touches so far

      1. French Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Tony Pullis football - how can anyone pay to watch his teams play ffs

        1. French Gooner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          post fail

      2. Plutocracy
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        On the way to his 1 shot on target, 1 goal, 3BP ?

    8. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Diego almost!

    9. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      It'd be nice if Costa got a yellow card today. I don't want to worry about getting the wrong captain choice with him and Kane in midweek...

      1. French Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        kane is a planned captain for mid week by miles

      2. Hybrid.power
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Kane captain all the way

        1. Ravager
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          Yeah but I haven't had a great captain result in forever. So me capping Kane is begging for a fail lol

      3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        If you can't captain kane at home to hull, sell him, there's no point having him taking up 11.0m of TV.

    10. bojack
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Is this the most desperate place on the internet on a match day?

      Clean answers only please.

      1. French Gooner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        200%

        1. bojack
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          I get the impression that some people don't even like football. I'd rather see a cracking game than my defender getting a clean sheet points. Maybe just me.

          1. French Gooner
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 9 days ago

            This ! One of the main reasons i started supporting Arsenal as a kid
            The joy of beautiful attacking football

        Try reading about American politics. trumpian lies will make you feel better about exaggerations of injuries here.

        1. bojack

          I do read the Daily Mail to punish myself sometimes.
