After the first four fixtures of Gameweek 31 treated us to just seven goals last night, hopes are a little higher for the remaining six matches.

Many Fantasy managers will be keeping a keen eye on the Emirates as Alexis Sanchez looks to punish West Ham once again.

The Chilean is the third most-captained player this time around, having served up 23 points against the Hammers back in Gameweek 14.

Dele Alli – the most popular midfielder in FPL – and Spurs team-mate Christian Eriksen also have the opportunity to deliver a big profit as they travel to a Swansea City outfit that boasts the worst home defensive record in the top-flight.

Crystal Palace and Middlesbrough are also in action this evening, affording us an early scouting opportunity as both gear up for a double Gameweek 34.

Christian Benteke and Wilfried Zaha roll up to St Mary’s looking to build on their goal and assist apiece away to Chelsea, with Sam Allardyce’s men seeking a fifth straight victory.

‘Boro face a tough task away to Hull, though. The Tigers are a tough nut to crack at home under Marco Silva, with six wins and a draw in seven in front of their own supporters across all competitions. Notably, the Teessiders appear to have opted for a front two for tonight’s clash.

Chelsea and Man City square up at the Bridge in one of two 8pm encounters.

Diego Costa is the second most-captained player for the Gameweek – over 10% are backing the Spain international despite a run of two goals in seven. Meanwhile, for the visitors, Sergio Aguero has persuaded 8% to take an armband punt on the back of three strikes in four.

Liverpool seek to gain revenge on their 4-3 capitulation at the Vitality Stadium earlier in the season as Bournemouth make their way to Anfield. With Sadio Mane sidelined, Philippe Coutinho – the top transfer target for Gameweek 31 – and Roberto Firmino carry the main threat to a defence that’s been breached 31 times already on their travels.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    GET IN SON. Too bad I have Walker.

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Son scored?

      1. Postman Ty
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Lol no, the Swansea goal. Pardon the confusion.

    So this is what it's like to own Spurs defence for the first time this season. Typical.

      Haha this, brought Vertongen in on a WC, first time ive had a spud defender!

    2. Postman Ty

      Did you buy walker last week too? Rested and then concedes to swansea. I'm surprised he hasn't gotten injured yet, my players have a habit of doing that.

    3. Postman Ty

      Come to think of it, this is the second time I've owned a Spud defender this season. Last time was Alderweireld when he instantly missed back to back games with last minute unannounced injures and then conceded to Watford. So obviously I sold before the Chelsea game and they kept 4 clean sheets in the next 5.

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Classic fpl

        1. Postman Ty
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Walker won't get another clean sheet this season, I'm sorry. It's really a joke at this point.

  5. Smurf

    Missing Lloris.

  6. Pep says
    • 11 Years

    If Sissoko hadn't pressed the keeper from the halfway line, that wouldn't have happened

    What ever happened to Siggy? He used to be involved in every Swansea goal at one time.

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      he was moved to the lw

    2. Epic Fail

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Never double up. Too much disappointment

      1. ChampChomp
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Not too worried. There'll be weeks where it won't work. Still good fixtures to come

  19. Lawrø
    • 14 Years

    1. Lawrø
