Double Gameweek 37 finally comes to an end this evening as Leicester City and Tottenham Hotspur go head-to-head at the King Power Stadium at 7.45pm.

After grabbing his side’s second in Sunday’s win over Man United, Harry Kane is now just two goals behind Romelu Lukaku in the race for the Golden Boot.

Having returned eight goals and three assists in his last seven starts, the Spurs striker has been handed the armband by 5.5% of FPL managers – more than any player in tonight’s encounter.

For Christian Eriksen’s 18% FPL owners, the Double Gameweek serves up one final twist – the Dane drops to the bench tonight after earning eight points against United last weekend.

Elsewhere for the visitors, Dele Alli starts as he looks to arrest a run of one goal in his previous four – the midfielder was transferred out by 56,000 FPL managers ahead of Tottenham’s pair of fixtures.

The hosts’ Jamie Vardy is the eighth most popular armband pick (2.4%) of Double Gameweek 37 on the back of seven goals and five assists in 11 appearances since Craig Shakespeare took the helm.

Meanwhile, Foxes wide man Marc Albrighton has flourished as a budget asset across that period, producing two goals and five assists in 10 outings under the new man in charge.

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

    Kane - one season wonder since 3 years

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

      Best young striker in Europe.

    current Team and 17 points behind leader
    Do i have any chance here? Team is a mess and probably need to take an hit

    De Gea
    Monreal | Yoshida | Alonso | Koscielny
    Hazard | Sanchez | Herrera
    Costa | Jesus | Gabbiadini

    I dont think i have a chance, so many of these wont play gw38

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

      Where's Kane?

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

      No kane, no chance. Hes playing hull !

    Minute silence for Knut...

    1. makaveli123
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He has been riding his luck for too long

  5. Slartibartfast
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    TC'ed Costa this GW... has Kane in his team: https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/team/1988038/event/37

    Heartbreaking stuff, that.

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

      Also had an OR of 600k

    2. Jayv807
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      My ML leader did the same and he was ranked 8k. He is no longer the ml leader.

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

        What?

  6. Ravager
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Seeing how wildcarding changed my season a bit in 33, feel like I held onto it too long in the first half of the season. It worked for me last season but clearly the damage was done from then.

    1. Taffer
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Wildcarding in 31 made a big difference. BB is overrated as a chip and you can position yourself really well for all the DGW going into the final 8

  7. Sterling is £11Mill..…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Did aguero look good other day? Jesus kun double up for 38?

    1. makaveli123
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He looked really good imo

  8. Jonny Sutt
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    25 points behind the leader of my ml with Kane Costa and coutinho in my favour. Do you think it's doable?

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

      Easily. You have the top 3 players for next week

      1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        How is costa in the top three must haves for Sunday lol

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

    Lukaku and Alexis also gunning for the Golden Boot.

    You just know Everton will mark Alexis to oblivion with nothing else at stake 😆

    1. arndff_
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kane 26
      Kaku 24
      Sanchez 23

      Kane is 99% the winner.

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

        Sanchez has more chance than Lukaku

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

      And assure Pool of 4th? 😉 Dont think so

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

        Everton will lie down and apply the butter for Sanchez

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

          😀

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

      Doesnt mean lukaku will score

  10. Mark-O
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    The only reason why I can't go beyond 200 points is simple.

    Manolo Gabbiadini 🙁

    1. Mark-O
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      And Hazard

      1. Dirty Harry
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Know them feels

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

        and Holgate being subbed at half time

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Also because the gw has finished

      1. Mark-O
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Ouch 🙁

    3. camarozz
      • 11 Years

      Same here. The plonker

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

    Traded Costa or Kane last week. Ridiculous

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

      Sorry other way around Kane out for Costa

      1. Dirty Harry
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Ouch.

  12. RÏɠBY

    wow.. players found diving next season will face suspension
    excellent news

    1. Vinyl78LP
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      a dive in the game gets a yellow card, so why a suspension if spotted later?

    2. FP El Wonky
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Love this!!!!

  13. camarozz

    9 years, 1 month ago

    Guys I'm on 185 points !!!!
    After hunting down a rival who was 240 points ahead at one stage. I'm only a handfull behind him now. Travesty if I don't win it now. Thank you HARRY KANE

  14. caio89
    • 13 Years

    Lesniak is an FPL monster - has more points than minutes played! Bargain at 4.5

  15. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Lukaku will have nightmares tonight...but don't worry, he once scored a hat-trick against United on the last game of the season .. Game on

    1. Dirty Harry
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Wont help when Kane puts four past Hull

    2. drughi
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      will blank against arsenal

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

      which season was that?

      1. Ronny Hotdog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Fergies last when Lukaku was at the baggies.

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

    on 150 and I feel as if I flopped big time.

  17. Bezzer
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Valencia, Gabbi, Jaku and Gabriel = 0 points... How about that for a bench boost?

    1. Mark-O
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      BB with Valencia and Gabriel is a disaster waiting to happen

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

        No wildcard

    2. An Púca
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Wow!

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Had Valencia and Gabbi

  18. mr messi
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Kane or Coutinho (c)?

    1. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kane

    2. super zlatan
      • 15 Years

  19. Rainer

      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Definitely . That's why we wait eagerly for this !!
      Most exciting.
      Most important.

  20. martyhan
    • 13 Years

    Chasing a 20 point gap in mini league. Should I go get sturridge in for lukaku and captain him? Leader has Sanchez and Kane as do I

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Correct

  21. UKG
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    GW37 BB was the perfect week to play it for me. I have 34 points from the bench alone. 191 all out.

    1. BUZZBOMB ♡
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Well done.
      There's a bit of luck involved tho. My BB bench was Jako, Stephens, Blind and Albrighton. On paper,ok this week's fixtures and form. Costa and Eriksen could have done something for me too.

      What was your 15?

  22. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Can we call the Triple Captain the Kane chip from now on?

  23. TooDifficuIt
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    so again now costa > kane -4 ?

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

      your name says it all

  24. Flynny
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Amy advice on who to start at weekend?

    Verthongen at hull

    Stephens v stoke

    Thanks

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Stephens as think Hull at home might get goal and Stoke not really looking like scoring

  25. Sandy Ravage
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    keeping Alli & Fabregas and hoping Coutinho & Siggy don't make me pay for sitting on the fence

    1. Tommy J
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      +1

  26. Annie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I have Kane, ML leader doesnt atm and has Costa. He's 5 ahead. Will he switch? His other strikers are Jesus and Anichebe...

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

      He'd be silly not to

    2. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      of course he will

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

        Good, can beat him with x to Cout 🙂

    3. Arctic monkeys
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      100% switching

  27. jimmy.floyd
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Captain

    Kane
    Sanchez?

  28. bitm2007
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Beat ML rival my 101 points this GW !

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

      "rival"

  29. Tommy J
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Based on that game surely there can be only one choice of captain for Sunday:

    King(c)!

  30. rdamjan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Must do something different for GW38.

    Hazard&Gabbiadini ---> Fabregas&Sturridge

    opinion?

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I like these trades and I'm considering the same.

    2. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Cout and Sturridge. 30 munimum. Bookmark
