With the Spurs assets delivering in the early kick-off, we move our attention to six more encounters to seek out further returns.

Arsenal’s trip to Swansea City undoubtedly provides the key interest, with more than 700,000 (16.5%) FPL managers turning to Alexis Sanchez as their Gameweek 21 captain.

With Olivier Giroud earning more than 350,000 transfers ahead of today’s deadline, it’s fair to say that Fantasy managers will be willing Arsenal to follow Spurs’ lead and produce goals and points aplenty.

Paul Clement’s first home game in charge provides an unwanted x-factor, however. It remains to be seen if he can lift a Swans side that has shipped 23 goals at the Liberty Stadium, the worst home record in the Premier League.

Elsewhere, Sunderland’s Jermain Defoe is heavily backed ahead of a home encounter with Stoke City. Brought in by 266,000 FPL managers ahead of Gameweek 21, more than any other FPL forward, Defoe has returned a goal or an assist in five of his last six Stadium of Light encounters.

Meanwhile, at the KCOM Stadium, a host of mid-price and budget assets go head to head with our focus on the likes of Robert Snodgrass, Junior Stanislas and Charlie Daniels.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Liverpool fans, how will Coutinho's return affect Lallana's gametime?

    I have exactly enough to do Giroud for Kane and Pogba for Lallana/Sterling.

      Not a Liv fan, but Lallana is a starter, Cout won't affect his gametime. It may mean he plays slightly deeper in some games, but that's it.

    No Ake no party

  5. Ravager
    • 11 Years

  6. Lawrø
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Why didn't Sanchez put his foot through that?!?

  7. Deulofail

    Chances of 4 CSs today?

    Rose Cedric Bertrand Friend

    C'moooooooon subbing of all full-backs at 60 mins

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Pretty sure the Rose one is secure...

      1. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Great insight, I'll note it down!

  8. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Holebas is a baps repellent

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I'm happy with just a CS to be honest.

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah that would be a big surprise to be fair

      2. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I'm happy when he gets 2.

      Been trying to get a FT to get rid of him for 2 months 🙂

      Any CS I can get out of him is a bonus

  9. Goodricke

    Giroud isn't getting stuck in. Can't see him lasting more than 60 mins, unless he gets another.

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      If he gets another, he's more likely to come off, no?

  10. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. Ravager
      • 11 Years
