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.

    Will Sanchez get more than 1 bonus? Winning goal and all..??

    1. The Wise Owl

      Nope, Sanchez blew it for himself missing so many opportunities.

      1. Sponge-worthy
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        But are the points for the winning goal yet added?

      Costa and Haz have great interplay

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

        Lots of foreplay but little penetration except for when Costa was premature with offside goal.

          Sounds like dirty talk

      1 cm away from Kante G, Alonso A 🙁

    • Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      If Kante was even 5ft Alonso would have an assist 🙁
