Double Gameweek 37 enters its fifth day of action this evening, serving up two more fixtures to entertain Fantasy managers.

Arsenal welcome Sunderland to the Emirates in the 7.45pm kick-off as Alexis Sanchez looks to add to his goal and assist haul in Saturdayโ€™s demolition of Stoke.

Captained by 10.6% of FPL managers, the Chilean is the second most popular armband pick for the Gameweek. As expected, he has shrugged off a leg problem to start against the Black Cats, while fellow weekend scorers Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud are also named in the first XI as Arsene Wengerโ€™s side attempt to keep their hopes of a top-four finish alive.

Man City entertain West Bromwich Albion in the second match of their Double Gameweek at 8pm.

Sergio Aguero returns to the starting XI alongside Gabriel Jesus as Raheem Sterling drops to the bench for the home side. The Argentine produced zero points as a sub at home to Leicester on Saturday, though boasting a 17% ownership, he is Cityโ€™s most captained player (8.1%) for their pair of fixtures.

The top transfer target for Double Gameweek 37, Jesus rewarded his 217,000+ new owners with an eight-point haul against the Foxes, while Leroy Saneโ€™s 7% backers will be hoping for more of the same after he delivered a season-high 11 points in the weekend win.

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

    Pickford got a 12th save at the end from deflected shot. If that isn't a save then what is??!!! Not happy

      1 pt doesn't make a difference

    I have Sanchez captain and have no complaints about Ozil 3 bonus

    1. Crow
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Ozil did really well, like sanchez blew 4-5 really good chances from ozil

  15. RubberDucky
      9 years, 10 days ago

      9 years, 10 days ago

      Before today's matches : 198k rank
      Rank as of now : 211k

      Guess i am the only one who is going down in ffs

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        Why didn't you have Sanchez for a double double, O.T.?

        1. The Overthinker
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          I know this may sound stupid or crazy, but the reason for going sanchezless was he was almost there in everybody's team. Having an average season, with no chance of winning the ML, i decided to go for ozil as a differential as it would improve my rank . I knew that this is a risk, but well i took the risk and guess it backfired

    • trinzoo
      • 11 Years

      Chances Yoshida is rested tomorrow ?

      1. Syd.

        Link or it didn't happen

          1. Gnu
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 10 days ago

            No transfer since GW31 so he obviouslt doesn't give a toss, so why should anyone else?

      2. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        No Arse?

    • Gudjohnsen
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Sanchez making up for the horrible Coutinho to Sterling move.

      1. Crow
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        Coutinho to herrera move for me. What a bad idea that is now that I think of it

        1. Gudjohnsen
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          Yeah, you win some and you lose some. Some players in FPL are like the plague for me and Sterling is one of them. Am staying away in the future.

    • ChristoBisto
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      A second Jesus goal would pretty much make the captaincy between him and Sanchez

    • @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      141 with 5 to play and sanchez captain bonus points incoming!

      1. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        He seems to be a squad player in Peps mind. Any chance he will start at the weekend? If not I need to get rid.

    • FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Why pay £6.1m for Kosc when you can have Holding for £4m? ๐Ÿ˜Ž

      Stick that in your pipe, Scouty!!!

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        Exactly, same can be said for Davies at Spurs.

      9 years, 10 days ago

      Predicted rank has been all over the place tonight! Was at 5k at one point, back down to 9800 right now, but I'll take it as a non-Sanchez-capper!
