After Spurs edged past Everton thanks to two more goals from Harry Kane at the Lane, itโ€™s now time for Sundayโ€™s main event.

Manchester City travel to Wearside in the first of their double Gameweek fixtures, with Pep Guardiolaโ€™s in-form outfit subject to huge Fantasy Premier League investment over the last few days.

Snapped by over 377,000 FPL managers, Sergio Aguero was the most sought-after asset prior to yesterdayโ€™s deadline after racking up four goals and two assists in his last pair of appearances across all competitions.

Surprisingly second to Zlatan Ibrahimovic in terms of overall armband backers for Gameweek 27, Aguero has, however, been triple captained by a substantial 159,000+ FPL managers, with City also set to entertain Stoke on Wednesday evening.

With a goal or assist in eight of his last ten league outings, Raheem Sterling acquired over 338,000 new owners last week โ€“ over 16,000 have wielded their triple captain chip on the winger.

Four goals and three assists in his last seven starts across all competitions has Leroy Sane shaping up as a differential, with the summer signing sitting in just 3% of squads, but Kevin De Bruyne’s owners are left disappointed as the Belgian surprisingly drops to the bench for the first match of double-header. As many as 6,937 FPL managers have played their Triple Captain chip on De Bruyne for Gameweek 27.

      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      sterling involved somehow? That's the only reason he could have given that.

      1. Berbalove
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Sterling was involved, I think the linesman got it right.

  3. Syd.

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

      Sterling still a long way paying back Alli out for a hit...

      1. Syd.
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

  4. Somalion
    • 16 Years

    1. Creedey

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

    Scored literally as I turned it on, maybe I should turn off the match and turn it back on again for another goal... ๐Ÿ˜€

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years

    1. Berbalove
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling offside and involved.

  17. Mark-O
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    So is Aguero

  18. Make United Great Again

    9 years, 3 months ago

    If he gets one goal in every half were laughing. Hopefully he's got at least 35 mins left to haul in the 1st leg

  21. BALOOO
    • 9 Years

  23. o0Ash
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Sterling was offside and interfered with play - how is that hard to comprehend?

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Have t seen a replay but didn't seem to interfere much just let it go last him

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I've seen the replay now. Correct decision.

  24. Torres76
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    How many goals this week for Kun???

  25. SuperDan
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Eriksen or Alli to Mane?

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

      Erisken

    2. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Eriksen.

    3. WVA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Haha literally everyone on here was saying Alli all week

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        That's because almost everyone on here, though not all, recommends the player who performed in the last match.

  26. SirStevieG
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Thank you Kun and Raheem. Now do it again in the second half.

  29. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Are the officials getting worse in the game or have they always been this bad?

    1. Sif
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      They look three times as bad today.

      1. Syd.
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        They appear so probably the game has got to fast for them to be fair

    2. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      They want live video refereeing to be implemented
