Dugout Discussion – Chelsea vs Hull City

Gameweek 22 concludes at Stamford Bridge where leaders Chelsea will bid to extend the gap at the top with another three points against Hull City.

The Diego Costa circus monopolises the pre-match chatter and, with the striker recovered from a “back problem”, he is immediately re-installed to Antonio Conte’s starting line-up to lead the attack.

Costa is backed by 10.5% of Fantasy Premier League managers with the captaincy, while team-mate Eden Hazard earns the support of 7.6%.

The Belgian has returned just a goal and two assists in the last five Gameweeks, causing a good degree of fidgeting among his 33.1% ownership.

However, the omens are good for both Hazard and Costa today.

The latter has scored in all three of his previous Premier League appearances against Hull, while also providing two assists.

Equally, Hazard has scored three and earned an assist in his last four Premier League appearances against the Tigers.

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

    Read few comments about geting Firmino in. He is somehow still in my team. Would you transfer him out in my case? Can`t find good replacement. Maybe Tadic?

      Why would you want to transfer out now? You should have done in ages ago, now might as well keep, Coutinho back means he might give you nice returns again from now on!

      I think I would due to fixtures, unless you're happy to bench him some weeks. There's better value elsewhere. Alli, Eriksen, Pedro, Tadic, Antonio, Lanzini, Silva, Barkley, Mirallas are all options
