After Spurs edged past West Ham at the London Stadium, there are six 3pm encounters to keep up ticking over this Saturday.

All eyes turn to the Etihad as Sergio Aguero and co welcome basement-dwellers Crystal Palace.

Transferred in by over 784,000 FPL managers last week, the Argentine has been captained by 18.5% – the second top pick for the Gameweek.

Gabriel Jesus owners are left frustrated, though, as he drops to the bench for the first time this season.

Aguero is still a less popular armband option than Romelu Lukaku (26.9%), who is again the number one choice for Man United’s trip to Southampton.

The Belgian has scored in both away appearances for the Red Devils, though has returned no more than six points on each occasion.

Chelsea’s Alvaro Morata is another big-hitter option. Up against Stoke’s patched up defence, the Spaniard looks to improve upon his run of three goals and two assists – just 3.2% have backed him with the armband.

Meanwhile, we’re looking for signs of form from both Everton and Swansea this weekend as they prepare for a super run of fixtures.

The Toffees entertain Bournemouth at Goodison, while Swansea welcome Watford to the Liberty.

And Burnley’s Chris Wood has another audition as our third striker option as Huddersfield make their way to Turf Moor. The summer signing has bagged three goals in four outings across all competitions since arriving from Leeds United.

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

            Oh sorry I got confused. But it's not really surprising that the worst team in the league parks the bus when playing the team with the best form away

    Today looks the easiest day to get some cash of bets in a long time. 1.60+ for both Spurs and Chelsea playing depleted Stoke with 1.35 for a Leicester goal against Lpool.

    Dear FPL Gods;
    I pray for you today to give Aguero a cold hard red and a three match ban. The irony of him getting into negative points after that many transfers in seems like the kind of thing that would appeal to you all anyway. I will sacrifice both of my two free transfers and two hits in your name if you carry out this act for me.
    Sincerely,
    Flustered FPL manager #564379

  26. Klopptomist Scott Jelly

    Morata for Lukaku when fixtures turn 🙂

  27. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Why on earth did I buy Kun over Morata?

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Probably because Kun is playing Palace at home

  28. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Lukaku to Morata in GW8 just has to be done. The guy just keeps scoring.

  29. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Alonso will score 2 goals today

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

  30. AndyCook
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Kept Morata and Kane and left Aguero on the shelf. Bit relieved really so far.
