The first of seven days of double Gameweek 37 action gets underway at Goodison Park this evening as Everton take on Watford in the 7.45pm kick-off.

Sold by more Fantasy Premier League managers than any player since last Friday’s deadline, the Toffees’ Romelu Lukaku looks to extend his three-goal lead over Harry Kane in the race for this season’s Golden Boot.

The Belgian collected 3% of votes in our Captain Poll – more than any single-Gameweek player – and has already returned 12 points against the Hornets back in December.

Chelsea head to The Hawthorns for an 8pm kick-off knowing that a win over West Brom would clinch the Premier League crown.

Essentially, we’re looking for the Baggies to do us a favour and keep the title race alive, forcing Antonio Conte to field his big-hitters in Monday’s plum home clash against Watford and giving Spurs extra incentive in their final match at the Lane against Man United on Sunday.

Despite those concerns over potential rotation, both Eden Hazard (14%) and Diego Costa (9%) found a place in the top five of our Captain Poll – the latter is second only to Manchester City’s Gabriel Jesus for transfers in this week on the back of three goals and as many assists in his last five outings.

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

    Costa landed awkwardly

    Knew I should've sold toolkaku

    1. French Gooner

      I sold him and I m still hiding behind the couch

    BB was always gonna fail with the likes of Holgate on the bench. You gotta stack that bench with the likes of Kane, Alonso & Jesus to be getting anywhere!!

      Ultimate benchwankery, ain't nobody gonna be impressed by that

      1. Viper
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Can't say I've ever done it to be honest 🙂

    2. diesel001

      Disagree. Koeman could easily have played Holgate for 60 mins and then taken him off. Have you seen Holgate's minutes for the last 10 matches?

    3. grumpyman
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Hardly. I got him in because Everton clean sheet was likely. Looks like it was a good decision. You can't predict an injury - some of the DGW players may get injuries too.

      Pickford, Holgate, Anichebe, Stephens

      Not exactly the cream of the crop 🙂

  5. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Yes! Costa makes 60 🙁

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Should have scored, injures himself instead 🙁

  7. RED PILL

    Can any one remember Hazard receiving a yellow card this season for diving?

  8. DaveZubie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Chelsea players diving all over the pitch.

  12. Smurf

    • 16 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    What's the website that has all the stats about ownership and captain picks for the gameweek and in the top 10k etc?

  13. Syd.
    • 16 Years

  14. ronty
