After Spurs edged past Everton thanks to two more goals from Harry Kane at the Lane, it’s now time for Sunday’s main event.

Manchester City travel to Wearside in the first of their double Gameweek fixtures, with Pep Guardiola’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 yesterday’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 – 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.

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

    KDB on makes a much better difference with first time passes.

    Sane and Aguero have played a lot fewer minutes this season than KDB, Silva and Sterling. Thus they are not as much in need of a rest.

    Aguero looks soo lazy. No wonder Pep gets annoyed.

      Why don't you have 3 City players?

      1. Lizard Lips
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I only have 1. I couldn't work out the logic behind whether it was worth it or not, got confused.

            Legend, wish I had followed suit. Sterling and Stones were on my radar but couldn't work out what I was doing so sat on my hands instead 🙁

        Sometimes people like going against the crowd. More risk, but more reward also.

    Hopefully KDB and Kun both start next game. Keep faith.

  11. TheTinman

  13. fedolefan
    • 11 Years

    Hit the target KDB, would have been a Sane assist.

    KDB wasting Sane assist

  15. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    A Sergio goal would be worth 15 points now.
