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.

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

    Tbh, Sterling was unlucky his assist deflected, it wouldn't have found Kun otherwise

          A triple captain in hand after 1 goal, is worth two in the fantasy bush.

          Aguero's last two home games - both braces.

          He'll go one better on Wednesday!

          Sunderland were fighting for their lives and ManCity took their feet of the gas.

          Stoke(H) is and ideal second fixture, they don't have much to play for.

          Ideal for me: All I need is a 3-0

          2 Aguero goals( 2 Sane Assists)
          1 Sane Goals( 1 Aguero assist)

          1. F4L
            • 11 Years

            just make sure SAS start first

          so many awful crosses when Sergio was free at the near post. Arghhh

          1. Rainer
            • 9 Years

            KDB back on Wednesday, we wont need crosses.

          Finding it funny that everyone assumes it will be the FA Cup Game that Kun will be rested.

          He played both hudderfield games - shows how seriously Pep is taking the FA Cup!

          Wouldnt be at all suprised if Kun starts from the bench against stoke......KDB or Nacho up front.

          1. Dr Dream
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Indeed. He's played strong team throughout the FA cup.

          2. F4L
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            imo he'll play everything. His fitness looks fine

          3. John t penguin
            • 11 Years

            Wouldn't be surprised if aguero starts both

        10. Dr Dream
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Happy with triple (c) Aguero. One of my rivals also tripled him up and he's 90pts behind me. That'll do nicely.

          58 with 6 to go, it could be worse.

        12. Pep says
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          3 goals would be a decent return for TC

          52 (-4, pre bonus) with Costa, Alonso, Kun tc and Sterling to go is pretty bad.

            1. Dr Dream
              • 13 Years

              Could be.

          • AA33
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Aguero should have scored more. Some terrible crosses from Sagna, Sterling, Clichy prevented him from scoring more. Also Sane should have passed to Aguero instead of going by himself, in second half (not the goal).

              All in all, I am a proud SAS owner ๐Ÿ˜Ž

            • Sims

              Have a bad feeling sane will be rested for Stoke

              Sterling going off before 80 means he will start I think. Nolito to get a game too imo

              1. Numb
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                Why couldn't Sane just play 80 against Stoke?

                Anyway. Sterling always gets subbed.

              Aguero TC so far is already more than I got for my TC last year (f u Lukaku) so should be happy really.....but selling Alli and Lukaku (who continues to annoy) is hurting when my rival has Kane and Alli ๐Ÿ™

              Why did Pep play kun for the 90??

              2-0 up with nacho on the bench who literally scores everytime he plays?
