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

  3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

    Any chance of a Kun goal to save the day?!

    1. Neevesy
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      60%

    Despite Kane (c), Lukaku, Silva, Alli, I cant help but be disappointed with this week. Mendy 0. Alonso 0. Trippier 1. At least Jones is looking like maximum bonus if they can keep their clean sheet.

    1. Neevesy
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Cant have it all, still a good week especially if Kun stays quiet

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

    Should have got Jones in...

  6. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Benteke down...Palace got no experienced forwards in the squad

  7. Rainer

    Schindler is the BPS king!

  8. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years

    Best replacement for Willian?

    He's absolute tripe.

    1. The Enlightener
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Ritchie maybe

      1. DR0GBA
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Seems like a YC magnet... must avoid

    2. Neevesy
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I went Ramsey

      1. DR0GBA
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Ramsey probably the best option, but he's already in my team

        1. Neevesy
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Downgrade to Atsu/Ritchie upgrade defence?

    3. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

    3. Harper_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Might do, for Morata who is the main man at Chels

    4. GreenArrows
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      For Morata yes, with the champions league and league cup going on at the moment Pep will rotate

      1. fredfred48
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        yep absolutely and either first to vardy then then morata....you just cant take the rotation risk when you have nailed on guys.....covering city with oto and silva.....

    5. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years

  11. Alnair

    Mendy can GTFO my team tbh. City cleansheets are hard to come by and the tosser gets booked and injured?

    GTFO!!!

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      GTFO!!

    Not watching the match, apparently Southampton are dominating?

    1. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  15. KingOllie
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Mendy and alonso getting a combined 0 points.
    Both teams get clean sheets.

    My fking luck this season

  16. President Giggs
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Wow Alonso...that's put a dampener on what was looking like my first good week

  17. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Want Pope to hold onto this clean sheet now.

  18. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    This season is pure troll.

    If I told you benching Daniels for his goal and then today and owning Kane for 3 out his 5 barren games...that wouldn't even cover the amount of trollyness and yes poor decisions on my part.

  19. Haggis
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Lemina will be sold for a lot of cash

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Arsenal should buy him in January. But they won't.

    2. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Do Liverpool need him, though?

    #LFC team to face #LCFC: Mignolet, Gomez, Lovren, Matip, Moreno, Henderson, Can, Wijnaldum, Coutinho, Firmino, Salah.

    Bobby central!

    1. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2. Harper_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      No Trent as expected

    3. VFORVANDETA

      Nice

  24. 32chickens

    Jesus owners certainly were nailed
    Never trust pep

  25. Sánchez
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Ridiculously i get 0 from mendy alonso whose sides have 2 clean sheets whilst rival gets 12 from daniels second sub coming on

  26. Hybrid.power

    This is the definition of fantasy premier league. It was inevitable that Aguero would disappoint, but we couldn't ignore him

    1. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      He's got an assist so far...

  27. LǝgleSs e|even

    Swapping to watch Watford play, keen to see how Richarlison is performing.

    Hows Burnley doing, any fellow Brady owners here?

    #LCFC starting XI: Schmeichel, Simpson, Morgan (c), Maguire, Chilwell, Ndidi, King, Albrighton, Mahrez, Okazaki, Vardy. #LeiLiv

    What the hell is he doing there. Morata was in and he cuts back to mess it up....

    Looks like Smalling is coming on.
