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.

    NBC commentators saying that Batshuayi is now worth the signing fee

    I mean come on now hahaha

      Unbelievable

        F**king unbelievable 😉

      What were you expecting from Americans discussing football?

      1. McEwan
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Honestly would rather watch their, fox or beinsports coverage of games

    3. The Suspended One

      They literally only recite what just happened and wax poetic. Analysis and commentary.. what a joke.

      The losers suck, the winners are the best and the big clubs never have an excuse to be imperfect.

      He's not been given a fair chance. Impossible to judge him.. he looks ok to be fair

    Bigger impact?

    Conte

    or

    Kante

    Discuss...

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

      Kante.

      Jose not being there the biggest impact though.

    2. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Conte. Kante hype is getting out of hand.

      1. The Suspended One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I get you, just remember the last few years of watching our MF get tore up every week. Coach always looks good when they win.

    3. HashAttack
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      wasn't Conte the reason Chelsea bought Kante?

  5. osceola31909
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    What are the chances Cahill or Alonso play against Watford?

    1. World XI
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Alonso more likely. Plenty on CB options

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

      1 in a million

    3. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Much higher than people on here think.

      Why would Conte deny his title winning players their chance to celebrate?...I hope he has a big tin hat if he tells the likes of Costa and Hazard they'rw benched for the celebration at home. It won't go down well if he does.

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

        They'll bench them against Sunderland though

        1. Dr Dream
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I'm not sure he will. Jose might do in a similar position but I've seen nothing to suggest Conte is as obsessed with RnR.

          Plenty of managers believe in continuation as a oppose to rolling the dice.

    4. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I think he will start them all for the home game for the momen in front the home supporters. .

      1. Camp No No
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Reasons why I doubt this: It's only 3 days between the games, they're going to celebrate tonight, the first team should be kept fit for the cup final, the bench players need to get field time, and if I remember right Conte has before had the habit of resting players after securing the title win.

  6. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Alonso don't use up all your energy in the celebrations 🙁

    Call it a day and go back to the hotel for a long sleep

    1. Bene_the_horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Alonso your Mam rang to say tea is ready....go back home!

    2. AccountAnt80
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yes, ready for your goal and assist later in the week!

      He's my captain. On for 2 bp's tonight I think.

  7. rnrd
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    How are the bps looking ?

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

      Azpi will surely take 3. Between Luiz, Alonso and Bats for the other two places.

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

        Thanks

      2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Batz gets the 3 for the winning goal too

        1. AccountAnt80
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Batz missing out I think. Alonso 2bp

  8. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$

    9 from 5 - facking unbelievable

    1. Arn De Gothia
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      18 from 3 😉

    2. Clucas
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Wow, how come?

    3. AccountAnt80
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      21 from 3 (Alonso captain)

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

    Would be real funny if Fabregas gets banned for cursing and misses the next game

  10. Chicken-Mandy
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    batshuayi to start next game and costa to be on the bench?

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

      Yes please.

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

      99.99%

    3. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I really want to see that happens.

    4. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Quite possibly. A Costa sub appearance can still be highly profitable though.

      1. Chicken-Mandy
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        glad i didnt do kane to costa, my knee stayed strong

  11. jmcclory123
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Hazard has trolled me hard over this season

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      There still 2nd game. Sanchez alike.

  12. Knowledgeable meerkat
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    All jokes aside, if anyone actually complains or gets offended by Fabregas saying "f***ing unbelievable, they need to do one

    It's 10pm, past watershed. There's plenty of shows on other channels right now which involve more swear words. It's a harmless non offensive comment referring to an incredibly emotional and successful moment. Shouldnt be punished at all for me, nothing wrong with that.

    1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I have sent 5 emails to the FA already complaining, as a non-owner.

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

        Add me on blind copy? I'm out of angles :/

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

      Kids hear worse at school/online anyway. You should see the Youtubers they all watch. Kids could probably teach us swear words nowadays.

      They're just words, they don't harm.

      1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Tell that to some of the mods on here

    3. Give The Todd Some Love
      • 14 Years

      F**k off, it's disgusting

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

        Now listen here you little shit, no swearing on this site. Kids may read it and laugh at you for using tame language.

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

          Your usage of the s-word makes me uncomfortable and vulnerable

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

            😆

    1. Davido989

    2. GS456

  26. Backup Dancer
