After Man City edged past Leicester at the Etihad, we now focus our attentions on a trio of 3pm encounters.

Bournemouth’s in-form Josh King collides with a Burnley defence that’s conceded at least twice in three of their last four league matches.

Owned by 19% of FPL managers, the Norwegian has racked up 11 goals and a pair of assists in the previous 13 Gameweeks to climb into eighth spot in the midfield standings.

Sunderland play the first match of their Double Gameweek 37 as Swansea City make their way to Wearside.

In what may well be his final home outing for the Black Cats, Jermain Defoe has been captained by just over 44,000 FPL managers, with a midweek trip to the Emirates also on his agenda.

With their survival on the line, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Fernando Llorente will be vital for the Swans today.

Still owned by 10% of FPL managers, the Icelandic international has a goal and assist in his previous three, while Llorente was snapped up by almost 44,000 new owners after netting against Stoke and Everton over the same period.

Southampton also get the first of their Double Gameweek 37 matches underway. Jack Stephens owners are left disappointed as he drops to the bench, while Manolo Gabbiadini misses out altogether as Claude Puel attempts to improve a run that has seen the Saints fail to score in four of their last five league outings.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Chances of koscielny starting?

      60/40 in favour of playing imo

    Go on Pickford take someone down in the box and save the resulting penalty.

    This site is so bipolar. Anichebe has gone from dead, nearly scoring, back dead, moving freely in 2 minutes.

      TBF that's actually what happened.

      It's like leaving journalism to a committee. Just a mesh of different opinions with no clear direction.

    4. Viper
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He got injured, tried to play, actually wasn't too far away from a cross and has now gone off.

      Facts of the matter 😉

    Anichebe (+2.3m) 1-0 Gabbi

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

      They're both absolute fails today. At least Gabbi will have a chance to play the second match.

    2. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years

      Gabbi owner may be the ones laughing after the GW

      Anichibe out for the season

    4. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Exactly. He was never going to get more than 4pts over two games, athough obviously would have preferred those extra 3pts.

  10. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Sick

  11. Sweetboi

    What a shambles of a BB. So many weeks with more points than this.

    1. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Its not even half over yet

  12. Sess!
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    pickford, stephens, anichibe. Possible no show from holding to come. Smashing the BB,

    1. Qubit
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yeh same here 🙂 Possibly going to be my worst bench score of the season! lol

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Two weeks ago had jaku 14pts and stephens 8ptson bench. Hindsight.

        1. Qubit
          • 17 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          If only eh! Next year ill bench boost in a random gameweek when it looks like none of them should get anything.

  13. Sebbo29
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Anichebe off

  14. Somalion
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Stupid from Anichebe really.

    Shouldn't have captained himself either.

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      What happened?

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

        His hamstring went, he signalled he wanted to play on, ran around on it for another 7/8 minutes then came off.

        Once a hammy goes there's very little chance of running it off, just making it worse.

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

    Only wanted Anichebe for the Chelsea game anyway

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

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

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