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.

  4. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Every season theres a point towards the end when sunderland start trying!
    Was hoping todays match would NOT be that point

  5. Pep says
    • 10 Years

    Look at United's form in the cup compared to the league also

  6. Rainer

    If Sterling can't get the better of Oviedo we're done!

  7. bigwig

      1. Winks Club
        • 10 Years

    Which looks like a better transfer

    A Phillips to Coutinho (-4)
    B Phillips to Firmino (-4)
    C Don't bother

    Aguero TC could actually turn out to be worse than the Andy Carroll TC in GW37

    1. Give Me the Mane
      • 9 Years

    Don't think City are playing too badly. Trying to work it. Sunderland will get tired.

  17. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Yaya is so far forward.

  18. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Sane and Defoe looking the most influential going forward. In my team, check, hurrayyyyy.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      0-0 no good though

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

        May as well turn off tv then!

    2. Ha.

        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Getting in there quick

  19. dogtanion
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    What's the minimum score people want from TC? Mine is 15 x 3

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Same. Not looking like happening though.

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      At this stage if he makes it to the 60th minute I'll be happy 😉

    3. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Mine is also 15 X 3, which is why I didn't play it this week. Haha jk, more like 10 X 3

  20. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

    Kone in good defending shocker

  21. ★Kuntheman★

    Just keep feeding it to Sane lads

  22. Cok3y5murf

    City struggling

  23. Ohhh Shola Ameobi
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Sense that if City get 1, floodgates could open.

    1. Duffy Dunk
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Fear that Aguero could be rested early if so

  24. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Aguero dropping deep to get the ball, getting frustrated

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Disagree - that is part of his role

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

      Aguero's job in a Pep side is to drop deep to get the ball. Don't see why that should be news anymore.

  25. Duffy Dunk
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    LOL standing ovation for 3 consecutive passes completed

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

    Kolarov absolutely bossing the baps

  27. Yome
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    City not shooting at all, it is really worrying

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years

      Fernandinho heard you

  28. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years

    Aguero offside -bps

  29. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Aguero, Sterling and Sane must be doing terribly from a BPS perspective...
