Double Gameweek 36 gets up and running at the London Stadium this evening as West Ham United entertain title-chasing Tottenham Hotspur.

The visitors roll up knowing that a win would take them to just one point behind Chelsea at the summit, with attacking trio Harry Kane, Dele Alli and Christian Eriksen playing a prominent role in many Wildcards selctions over the last few days.

All three have merited our attention.

Kane – who has already picked up 13 points against the Hammers in Gameweek 12 – has seven goals and three assists in his last five starts and is second only to Alexis Sanchez in our Gameweek 36 Captain Poll, with 11% backing.

Eriksen has delivered double-figures in each of his previous two road trips, while Alli’s run of eight returns in the last nine Gameweeks has taken him to nine points off the top of the FPL player standings.

Devoid of a Double Gameweek, Fantasy interest in West Ham’s assets is minimal at best – the main impact will be their ability to breach a defence that’s conceded just once in their previous six.

Slaven Bilic’s side will take some solace in their 3-2 loss at White Lane back in November, though – that was one of only five times that Spurs have conceded more than a single goal in the league this season.

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

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      Spurs score alot of their goals in second half and also in the last 10-15 minutes of their games.

  4. aroyalshark

    Spurs must take more low % shots than any team in the league

  6. ekul the lokonga enthusiast

    Spurs are lucky to have wanyama. If not, I don't think they'd be any better than last season

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      Yes cause spurs were terrible last season...

      1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 27 days ago

        @final fantasy - they wasn't but I feel wanyama has given them that needed stability in the middle of the park which has helped them improve massively from last year

    2. Revival

      Bargain what they paid for him

      1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 27 days ago

        @sims Chelsea won the league two years ago without him, what's ur point?

        1. Sims
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 27 days ago

          yes and players never get old or worse....

    4. Hybrid.power

      Wtf was wrong with last season?

      1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 27 days ago

        My point is that they're better this season. I didn't say they were bad last season

  7. Chucky
    • 12 Years

    Need Eriksen to score asap...

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      Will an assist for Kane do?

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      The old Alli + Eriksen double up...

    3. Jafooli

      😀

  8. Lizard Lips
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 27 days ago

    Eriksen could have fallen there for a penalty.

  9. F4L
    • 11 Years

    Fonte is kack

  10. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 27 days ago

    Sounds crazy but is anyone doing Kane to costa?

    Looks mad but makes sense in my head

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      Well when I get rid of Sanchez, I can do pretty much anything....

      1. v12w12
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 27 days ago

        Marvellous

      2. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 27 days ago

        Doesn't costa cost less than Kane ?

    2. JogaSemmedo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      Did it on Wildcard before this game week. So far so good.

  11. Hybrid.power

    Cannot wait until this season is done. Its been driving me demented!

    1. grumpyman
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      I hear you. Never been more obsessed or more disappointed.

      1. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 27 days ago

        @grumpy man - this

      2. Hybrid.power
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 27 days ago

        Yep, same here. I ended last season with a great rank, i thought this season would be a cakewalk. Most of my decisions have backfired spectacularly

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      Same, I need a break and start afresh next season

    Kane looks like scoring today.

  14. ronty
    • 14 Years

    Chelsea basically win the title tonight

    1. Sims
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      they "basically" won the league when they beat everton

      mathematically theyll win it when they beat watford

    2. ekul the lokonga enthusiast
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      This did this when they beat Everton tbh but I get you. A draw will confirm pretty much

  15. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Spurs about to bottle the title, it's that time again

    1. Tansey
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      thought they'd leave the bottling to the last 1/2 games

    2. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      Can't bottle it when it's not in their hands.

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 27 days ago

        Rubbish, knowing our need to win every game and doing it takes bottle

  16. Camp No No
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 27 days ago

    Go Irons! Resist! And score, too, please!

    1. Pariße
      • 11 Years

      There you are 🙂 I've been looking for you for weeks!

    Feel so stupid for going Kane over Costa, made a post saying I think Costa will get many more, look at those fixtures. Big error by me, anyone else?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      Spurs away form was always a worry

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 27 days ago

      I went the opposite way and just as nervous.

    3. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 9 Years

      It's only half time man have faith. They scored three in extra time a Swansea

    4. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years

      Kane over Costa was a no brainer for me actually

      I never understand the logic of posts like these made at half time. It's kind of covering your back for success of either outcome.
