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 Saturday’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 Wenger’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 City’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 Sane’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

    118 with 5 to play. Still a little disappointed. Shoulda done Sanchez (C), but got all excited about my shiny new KDB

  10. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    May the scorecheck circle jerk commence 😆

    1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$

  11. FirminoIsBetterThanYou
    • 9 Years

    Why will KDB get winning goal bonus?

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years

      Have a guess!

  12. Chaps Before Baps
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    If Arsenal win 1-0 & Liverpool lose 1-0 in GW38 will there be a play-off?... GW39? Imagine the scenes.

    1. Lallana_
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Don't want that as a Liverpool supporter but fancy our chances if that happened

    2. Lucky_Z
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      How come?

    3. Fowler23
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Maths class fail lol

    4. Tekkerslovakiaftw
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      No because arsenal would be 2 points ahead

    5. Mo Salah No Mane
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      How? Arsenal will have 75 and Liverpool 73.

    6. Neeskens Under Matip
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I suspect an extra Everton own goal...

    1. Lallana_
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

  14. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Zabaleta being treated like he's Pele or George Best - weird.

  15. Lallana_
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    RIP to me. No Sanchez at all. Luckily Ozil is on 3 bonus.

    Looking at 120-130 pts this week which I'm surprised with, made some poor choices.

    How about you guys?

    1. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      How on earth are you on 120+ without Sanchez?

      1. Lallana_
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/team/2847970/event/37

        Balanced my team a bit. In hindsight I should have done Hazard>Sanchez or Bailly>Holding for a hit

    2. VFORVANDETA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      135 pre bps..

    3. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      143 if baps hold. 5 to go. Good considering Pedro & Hazard.

    4. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      120 pls bps
      6 to play
      Not great. Not bad.

  16. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    129 points pre Sanchez + Jesus baps with Yoshi, Stephens, Eriksen, Alli, Kane left to play, how likely am I to get 180 points?

    1. 1966 was a great year for E…
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Unlikely

    2. sy

      Unlikely

    3. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      160

  17. For Fuchs Sake
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Will be about 30 points clear in my ML on last GW, should be enough right?

    1. 8ball
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Yes

  18. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    I still got my captain left, but i know i have lost the dgw. Not expecting much .
    Guess I'll be one of few who'll end up scoring below averaged​

  19. Bring on the shots
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Super Happy!

    140 Points so far with Pickford, Jesus and Sanchez bonus points to come tonight

    Kane, Yoshida, Blind and Ward Prowse to play!

    3. EDEN THE MAN
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Most people on here got over 100 because all the team were very similar.

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

        Wise thinking

      2. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Anyone with any sense will have got 100 or so. You don't need to come on here for that.

    4. pundit of punts
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Last season DGW 37 got me 165.

      Love this game.

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years

        • George Sillett
          • 10 Years

        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        140 with 4 to play....my best ever week

        1. ThisTimeNxtYrRodney
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          140 with 3 spurs + 2 Southampton to play. 90 points on mini league leader this week. So now I'm about 60 in front from 80 behind 3 weeks ago. Anything is possible.

      7. For Fuchs Sake
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Do we think these will play the 2nd GW games?

        a) Vert
        b) Erik
        c) Stephens
        d) Kane

        1. The Tinkerman
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Yes to all

      8. LakhaneeFC
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        115 with 5 to play and captain Kane to go

        Damn I hate shifting the captaincy from Sanchez to Kane now. Need him to get a hattrick!

      9. Louis The Joker
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Harricane please give us a hat trick tomorrow, the Sanchez TC is too much to bear

      10. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        126pts
        6 to play (hopefully)
        I'll take that

      11. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Ozil was insane tonight; 12 chances created, 3/3 take-ons. 3 baps deserved in a stats based system.

      12. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Pickford with CS points total after conceding too. GOAT
