The second instalment to Sunday’s slice of Premier League action brings Gameweek 3 to a close with matches at Anfield and Wembley Stadium.

The attention of Fantasy managers will be pulled in different directions, with key assets on show in both contests.

After the “failings” of Romelu Lukaku, Paul Pogba and Sergio Aguero on Saturday, we now look to see if Harry Kane can step up.

Kane is backed 741,000+ (16.1%) ahead of the “home” encounter with Burnley as he bids to end a run of two single point returns and score his first competitive career goal in August.

Should he succeed, it would doubtless have a major impact on rankings and transfer activity over the international break.

Equally, events at Anfield could have a major effect on our thinking leading up to Gameweek 4.

Liverpool boast an array of attacking talent, including the electric Sadio Mane, who lines up in tandem with the in-form Roberto Firmino and Mo Salah.

But Arsenal have their own riches on show, with all eyes on the performance of Alexis Sanchez.

He returns to the Gunners’ line-up as Alexandre Lacazette suprisingly drops to the bench as Danny Welbeck leads the attack in a Arsenal’s 3-4-2-1.

Like Kane, should Sanchez convince and return points this afternoon, the impact on the FPL market would be substantial.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Burnley seem a lot tougher to beat away from home

    1. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Or Spurs seem easy to score against at home.

        Dunno, its possible but Burnley didn't give away many chances against Chelsea either

        Interesting as it makes Heaton fairly useless too

    Kane CS locked in!

      Awful

  7. The Gobstopper

    8 years, 8 months ago

    Kane & Mounie to Morata & Firmino on the cards, I think. Have an extra FT, so no hit...

    1. Mark-O
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Mounie facing a very leaky west ham you sure about that

      1. The Gobstopper
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Good point. West Ham is horrendous at the moment...

    2. fiveyears

      A great set of transfers 48hrs ago

      1. The Gobstopper
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Ha! Yep. Hindsight and all...

      2. Ibracadabra
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        LOL

    3. The Gobstopper
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Really, though, I'm mostly chasing rises (and avoiding drops) with these moves, especially during the international break.

    4. Third Eye Vision
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Morata and Firmino are good picks so regardless of what happens over next couple of weeks, I'd say go for it.

  8. TorresMagic™

    At least Kane didn't get a yc.

      Amazing monstrous gameweek for me, my only player to not get points was Lukaku who I captained! Even my bench got points!

        Burnley great away and bad at home. How odd.

        Kane J Rod out > Morata Firmino in.

        Well done Salah for outscoring my top point scorer this gw, who, obviously was 3rd on the bench

        8 years, 8 months ago

        started the day with WBA double-up fail. Salah and Alli and that Burnley goal saved my gw.

        • 11 Years

        Trippier is a shockingly bad defender.

        1. ★Kuntheman★
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Better than Walker 😆

        Can I expect a Kane price drop now?

          8 years, 8 months ago

          31 points wildcard score. Looking at over 3.5m rank. Wow.
