There’s just a single Gameweek 26 fixture on Sunday’s menu as Tottenham Hotspur entertain Stoke City in the 1.30pm kick off.

Harry Kane, Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli boast the main goal threat for the hosts as Maurico Pochettino names the same XI that started against Genk in midweek – an indication that Spurs will line up in a 3-4-2-1 set-up.

Snapped up by over 96,000 FPL managers last week, Kane was the sixth most captained player in the Gameweek – he’s bagged four goals in his last two at the Lane and fired a hat-trick against Fulham in the FA Cup last weekend.

Eriksen, meanwhile, has delivered double-figures in four of his last six home appearances in the league and served up a goal and assist on Thursday evening.

Alli has managed attacking returns in four of his previous six at the Lane but was still subject to more sales (66,000+) than any player without a Gameweek 26 fixture.

Meanwhile, Fantasy managers have the chance to do some early scouting on Stoke’s main men ahead of a potential double Gameweek 27.

Should Man City progress past Huddersfield on Wednesday night and confirm the double, the likes of Peter Crouch and Marko Arnautovic could find their way into our short-term plans.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Who tô ditch for Agueroooo? Kane, Costa or Lukaku? Was no Kane untill this haul ...

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Costa easily

    2. Feed tha Sheep
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Think I'm going to sell Costa

    3. jayzico

      Got same strikeforce. I'm ditching Kane due to gw28. Always buy him back.

    4. rdamjan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Costa.

    5. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Costa

    6. bojack

      Lukaku has Spurs away next. Obvious choice to ditch and then rebuy, for me.

      1. DMP
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thinking on Lukaku and the man rebuy for Aguero on 28.

    First score predictions. I'm going 5-0. Alli with the 5th.

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      5-1 Eriksen goal

    2. MTPockets

        Sadly, I can smell a Kane penalty, just to rub it in 🙁

      18 Apr 2016 Stoke City v Tottenham Hotspur 0-4
      10 Sep 2016 Stoke City v Tottenham Hotspur 0-4
      26 Feb 2017 Tottenham Hotspur v Stoke City 4-0 (after HT)

      We should've seen this coming 😎

    4. Bubz

      Very much considering triple captaining Aguero now. Stoke at home, Sunderland away is the dream DGW

      1. Sims
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I'll definitely tc sanchez

        Aguero too much of an injury risk for me to use that chip+ pep rotation factor with ucl

        1. JustPark
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          This

        2. Bubz
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I just can't see Pep benching him in those games. Iaenacho doesn't fit Pep's system whatsoever. Maybe he could play Nolito up top though or something

      2. FPL Puppy
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Who are you getting rid?

        1. Bubz
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Going to have to be Costa after this show from Kane

          1. FPL Puppy
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Only logical move really. 🙂

          2. Arctic monkeys
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            No Ibra ?

            1. Bubz
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              No I have Lukaku, Kane, Costa

      3. Viper
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        If he doesn't start in the cup, this has to be given serious consideration

      4. fiveyears
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Only questionable bit for me is his form, given he only really became first choice again against Monaco. Scores 1 or 2 against Huddersfield and it maybe swings it.

        Truly believe he'll play both games in the Prem DGW though, given how tight the top 4 is.

    5. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      It will be funny when everyone TC Aguero and he gets sent-off in the first match.

      1. Robe Wan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Won't be so funny when he gets 4 goals and an assist across the two games

      2. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        More likely to get injured in the first minute.

    6. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Alli on 12 league goals now. Wow

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        So cheap at 8.1 a few weeks back... Just means i can never sell him now because of TV

    7. Lav

      9 years, 1 month ago

      Glad I've done ibra sanchez and crouch to kane lukaku and milner. Still have WC for when I might need sanchez/ibra back

    13. Viper
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'm 63 points behind my main rival (he's top 1k).

      I can't see how he can get Aguero in next week.

      I'm seriously considering triple captaining him because of this. Might never get a better chance although it's not that big of a gap I suppose

      1. Knowledgeable meerkat
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Just captain him

    14. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Walker and Eriksen red cards + Allen goal + kane goal with alli assist

      Please

    15. Lav
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

    16. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years

      No goals this half yet? Kane fail.

      1. Viper
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Glad I didn't captain him

      1. Sims
        • 9 Years
