Dugout Discussion

Dugout Discussion – Saturday

An emphatic victory for Manchester City provides modest returns from their key Fantasy assets, sending us into the afternoon kick-offs scratching around for early points. With just four matches on the agenda, we have slim pickings available.

Bournemouth’s Josh King’s looks the most likely – he faces up to a Stoke City defence who boast just a single clean sheet from their last seven, having scored 12 goals in his previous 14 Gameweeks. Over 89,000 Fantasy Premier League managers have drafted in King ahead of this one, boosting his ownership to 891,000+ (19.8%).

Elsewhere, Hull City face relegated Sunderland at the KCOM Stadium with Eldin Jakupovic and Harry Maguire the major assets on show, while Burnley host West Brom at Turf Moor, with Tom Heaton’s 19.5% ownership surely expecting a clean sheet return.

Finally, Leicester City entertain Watford at the King Power Stadium, with Jamie Vardy seeking to maintain form that has brought him returns in eight of his last nine Gameweeks.

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