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

    Gonna be huge battle for golden boot in the last GW, even if Kane wont score against Leicester, he can easily score 3 against Hull !

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Yep. Just summarise below.

  2. NATSTER
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    GOALS SCORED

    24 - Lukaku
    23 - Sanchez
    22 - Kane
    20 - Costa
    18 - Aguero
    17 - Alli

    Sanchez is a goal behind Lukaku. They will meet in GW 38.
    Kane are two behind but still have two games to go.

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Kane will take that hands down.

    2. French Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      What happens if tie ?

      1. trinzoo
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        most assists ?

    3. trinzoo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Costa must be on the way to China, he could easily get involved with 2 against Watford.

      1. squits
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        He didn't play against Watford though?

        1. trinzoo
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          Conte decision, thats my point!

  3. George Sillett
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Can pundit of pundits beat his previous record of 5 score posts in 30 mins ?
    He's up to 2 in 2 mins already.

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Don't encourage him

    2. French Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Ppl like him should get banned

  4. Big_Bear
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Looks like I'll go into final GW38 30-35 points ahead of my cash mini league opponent.

    I have asked this before but would you take 8 point hit to bring in 3 players on your opponents team or just use your FT as normal for what you thinks best. I'be taken a total of 2 hits all season so this is a case of copying my ML rival.

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      It depends on who those 3 players are.

      1. trinzoo
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        This, and depends how much $ on the table ๐Ÿ™‚ if a lot, then better be on the safe side!

        1. Big_Bear
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          £150 between 1st and 2nd.

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      I think your safe.

      1. Big_Bear
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        So just play as normal and use FT wisely?

        I'll be captaining Sanchez as the obvious candidate.

        FT wise I'll probably do Brunt to Davies (who he owns) but if I were being defensive I could do Brunt + Kos + Hazard to Cahill + B.Davies + Eriksen

    3. squits
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Yep, just bring in any big hitters he may have that you don't and you're safe!

  5. tm370
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    As if some people were talking about selling him...

    FF gold.

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

      Haha this! So many sold wtf

  6. Bourbon, Pot Still or Islay…
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Surely an Arsenal haul this weekend?

    Everton will surely lie down hoping Liverpool don't get champions league !!??

    1. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Interesting.

      I'm getting coutinho in.
      Sanchez or Coutinho Captain?

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

        Chasing, Cout. Otherwise, Sanchez.

    2. tm370
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Not a haul, but I see Arsenal winning by a couple.

      Koeman is not the sort of manager to let them walk around.

    3. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Sunderland were dreadful today. Don't forget that

  7. Give The Todd Some Love
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Gabbiadini over Jesus went well then

    1. Kane-harry Island
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Pretty much yea

  8. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    I gained like 120 on ML leader in 3 weeks but he TCed Sanchez and I don't own... it's over but I rose about 10 places in ML in that tim and about 1M OR so I could hardly ask for more. Good game, people, hood game...

  9. TaiwanHC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Why did I have to make it fancy and pick Jesus over Sanchez as captain?

    1. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      just 8pts difference. don't worry.

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

        8*2 so 16

        1. Konig Luther
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          check again

          sanchez 27 + jesus (c) 38 = 65
          sanchez (C) 54 + jesus (19) =73

        2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          19*2 + 27
          19 + 27*2

          8 difference, stop crying

        3. Mattski
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          Konig is correct;

          Jesus (c) 38pts plus Sanchez 27pts = 65pts
          Jesus 19pts plus Sanchez (c) 54pts = 73pts

          People often make this mistake when comparing captain choices.
          And by people I mainly mean myself....!

    2. Moose™
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Im on Kane. Sighhhhh

    3. HashAttack

  13. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Sanchez(c), Mustafi, Czech, Willy, Jesus and Sane owner and FFF is predicting my rank to rise by 70 places..

    1. Hakchak
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      My rank predicted to rise only 32 places... from 180 to 156

      1. Forza Papac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        836 to 764 for me

        1. squits
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

        2. Hakchak
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          Think it would be because they are all high eo ownership plus sane didn't do anything and mAybe some TC/ KDB owners

  14. Moose™
    • 13 Years

  16. Gooner97

    Why Zabaleta is having this farewell like Sir Alex Ferguson?

    1. Bazzalona
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      He's been a great servant.
      But this is OTT.

    2. SheBangsTheDrums
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Strange that he puts beating United in a semi final above winning the league in THAT Aguero moment!

      1. Bazzalona
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        Not exactly my fave ever moment either!
        He scored in that game too.

    3. HashAttack
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Still going ... out of contract players like Navas must be wondering wtf

  17. LaLaLand
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    strong rumours that United have arranged for Keane to be re-signed from Burnley this summer!

    1. how now brown cow

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years

          Hopefully, that Alexis haul was much needed even as a non captainer ๐Ÿ™‚

      Trollkaku to Jesus is a no brainer now. I'm really disappointed. Should have taken that extra hit. Oh well!

    4. Ha.

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

      Took an uncharacteristic -12 this week:

      IN: Cech, Monreal, Kompany, Albrighton (27 points)

      OUT: Jaku, Robertson, Stones, Alli (1 point)

      Think it's going to turn out ok.....

      1. how now brown cow
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        Alli 4 goals on thursday ๐Ÿ˜‰

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years

          Probably!

          As long as Eriksen and Kane are providing the assists......

    7. camarozz
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      141 points if baps are correct.
      Yoshida,Stephens,Davies,Ericksen,Kane,gabbiadini to play.

      I guess 2 of those S'HAMPTON players won't actually be playing??

      1. For Fuchs Sake
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        Stephens might, in fact all 3 could.

    8. We Will Klopp you

          • 14 Years

          Kane for me

      2. Coaly
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        Kane, Cout, Sanchez or Giroud for me

    10. Boydinho
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Best mid for 5.9 to bring in? Going Maverick for 38, have to gain 20 odd points.

      Gab - > Kane (C)
      Haz - > 5.9

    13. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      We don't have any excuses to secure CL footy now. Don't wanna tempt fate but Studge+Cout with one captain seems the way to go.

      1. how now brown cow
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        If anyone can arse up home to Boro.....

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 10 days ago

          Yep. Dunno. Might get those 2 then captain Alexis. The Ev will bend over.

          1. how now brown cow
            • 11 Years

            What's the Firmino latest?

            1. Davido989
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 10 days ago

              Should be fit. I think there will be training pics on Lfc twitter tomorrow

              1. how now brown cow
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 10 days ago

                Was considering a Firmino-Coutinho double.

                Feels so wrong selling Hazard before Sunderland though.

      2. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 10 days ago

        Boro will definitely try to spoil the party

        1. Davido989

          Adama Traore brace confirmed.
