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.

    Alonso spawning baps. What has he done.. nothing

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Useless passing completion crap

    2. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Makes up for the games where he was actually good but nobody was at the end of his crosses so he never got bonus points 😀

    11 players rested against Watford and Sunderland by Conte IMO.

    1. Nanoelektronicar

      • 11 Years

      For sure now

    Had to downgrade Alonso to Azpi to get my desired team but it has worked out beautifully.

    Azpi, you sexy fooker

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Guessing you did the transfer in GW36. Still missed out on the 14 pointer

    2. Pocky
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Azpi played every single minute of the season (in league) so far...Surely Conte will allow him the opportunity to go the whole season.

      Same, so glad I chose him over Cahill! 😀

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      6

  8. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years

    I don't know if I want an Alonso CS now, a draw might be more beneficial overall

    1. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      What you want has no bearing on what happens, you do realize that?

      1. ★Kuntheman★
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        No way...really?!

        1. walkman666
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Okay, alternatively, no one really cares what you want to happen.

            That's not what my mother said

  9. Feloh

    9 years, 1 month ago

    why risk players getting injuries when you can protect them. I mean, you have a final to play, also, the title is already in the bag. I know many will be triggered by this.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      See above. 11 players getting rested IMO

  10. @fpl_phenom

    This gw is the worst and I need some comfort 🙁

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years

      GW just started

    2. Pirlø's Pen
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      2/31 players. I would not fret.

  15. Piggs Boson
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    4th successive league title for Conte. Currently the best manager in the world.

    1. Feloh
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      then zidane works at MacDonalds

        Comment of the year 🙂

    3. soup natsi
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Needs to prove himself in Europe first.

      Still remember Juve finishing third behind Gala.

      1. soup natsi
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        In CL groups that is, with Real and Copenhagen.

      2. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thought he had to prove himself in the Premier League? This was a league of top managers. Mourinho, Pep Guardiola, Klopp, Poch, Moyes.

        And that was a while ago, the best constantly grow and improve.

        1. soup natsi
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          He flopped in CL three seasons in a row. Best managers in the world perform in CL.

          1. soup natsi
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Not to mention Juve reached CL final twice since he left...

          2. Piggs Boson
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Fair enough. That's his next challenge then.

    4. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      If he wins the 5th, I'd agree
      At Juve, they've monopolized that league, they won it last year and will this year.
      He's had no Europe this year either.

    Looks like the Chelski lot have forgot to take their little plastic flags with them.

    Alonso has absolutely murdered me this season

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Same. Never owned him.

      1. Ravager
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Had him. Fluffed my lines on WC. Ah well

  18. For Fuchs Sake
    • 16 Years

    If Costa doesn't start the next game then I need Kane to go mental, my rival has Costa, I have Kane

  28. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Costa probably leaving after this season, playing 90 minutes today, title race is over, Michy scored.... Can see the latter starting next game actually!
