With the Spurs stroll providing a healthy set of early returns, we now roll on with a collection of five afternoon kick-offs.

Harry Kane’s double figure return puts the onus on Romelu Lukaku to match or even better his Golden Boot rival.

The Everton striker will face a Burnley today, having scored in seven successive Goodison Park matches. He’s backed by 892,000+ (20.2%) with the captaincy – the top pick in Gameweek 33 – including 60 of the top 100 Fantasy Premier League managers.

Elsewhere, the Fantasy interest is somewhat limited, although Crystal Palace’s Selhurst Park meeting with Leicester City offers us another opportunity to scout their assets ahead of the Gameweek 34 double. Wilfried Zaha is perhaps the key target on show – he’s been brought in by 188,000 ahead of today’s clash, second only to Kane.

Gylfi Sigurdsson has another chance to halt his alarming decline when Swansea City travel to Watford. Surely a must-win clash for the Swans, Sigurdsson will be seeking his first return for four Gameweeks having lost 121,000+ owners this week, only Chelsea’s Diego Costa has suffered greater sales.

Finally, Stoke City take on Hull City at the bet365 stadium in a fixture which is unlikely to impact our tallies, while Sunderland host West Ham at the Stadium of Light, with Jermain Defoe seeking to re-ignite his goalscoring form and Andy Carroll back to lead the line for the Hammers.

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

    1. Godot - Fashanu Zealand
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      He's got nothing to fight for anymore, now that he is back in the England fold.

    2. Toothless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      1. Cilly Bonnolly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Will there be winning goal BPS? How does it work when the winning goal's an OG?

      1. Ógie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

  18. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Sterling on the bench after 2 assists last week. Wtf.

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

    2. suddenorgan
      • 15 Years

  19. The Tinkerman
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Does anyone get winning goal bonus in Everton game? since the 2nd everton goal was a Mee OG? I'm guessing not.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Agree - no bonus

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Kaku get it somehow

    3. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      It's a bit of a silly rule, that. Unfortunately I have nay a fecking clue!

  20. Fpldonny
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Wow, Swansea fighting for their lives and can't even score in 2 games against West ham and Watford. Oh dear :/

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Their away form is brutal....6 straight away defeats now

    2. The Tinkerman
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Hmm, making me regret holding onto Llorente. Have little choice but to give him one more week now, getting Ibra more important for DGW34.

  21. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Why did the top 1000 average shoot up?

    1. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Dirty Lukaku captainers 🙂

    2. Messiah Hazard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago
