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.

    People going way overboard with the criticism of Boro defence. They won't play Hull every week.

    1. fiveyears

      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      To be fair it is true they've got a couple out.

      Think I'll swerve anyway because they're basically down if it stays like this

  12. Royal5

    Still nothing from Spurs, Arsenal and Pool!?

    1. Top 210 Club
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Pool no surprise

  13. willgriggsonfire

  16. Team Cruel

    I have Alexis, Aguero, Carroll, Tadic, Siggy and Coutinho...they've all successfully managed to avoid scoring so far.

    What the hell is Arsene doing playing Sanchez wide. Especially considering that Welbeck is a very decent on the left rather than through the middle.

  22. Teahupo'o
    • 14 Years

    Most inconsistent fpl season I can remember.
