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

      I'd Morata him out personally.

      Then swap Lukaku for Aguero the week after he faces Palace

      1. cjhewitt92
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Morata against city or Laca for a week then Morata

    Firmino about to show y'all why he's essential

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

      I sold him for a hit, so this is guaranteed

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Would make things interesting if both he and Vardy did well. Might break up the idea of power three up front a bit.

    3. VFORVANDETA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Yeah.He need to deliver.

  7. Ambrosiana Inter

    score check

    55 post baps with firmino salah Ritchie and Elliot to go. bang on the average I reckon

      • Sponge-worthy
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        67 with Ritchie, Firmino and Elliot to go.

      • Ambrosiana Inter

    2. Emiliano Sala
      • 9 Years

      How bad mendy injury was?
      Alonso also injured?

    3. Mr. Jenkins
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Got Elliot, Foster
      Alonso, Kola, Jones, Davies, Mariappa
      Mhik, Eriksen, Atsu, Carrol and Mooy
      Kane, Lukaku and Mounie

      WCing after next got 2 FTs now. Transfer for risers to have more money to spend? ie. Morata or transfer for the most points? (Morata going in in WC team anyways)

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

      Fair play those with Morata Aguero Kane

      Went Lukaku over Kane for the time being

    5. F4L
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      People need to realise, that Chelsea have some serious frailties at the back right now. City will put 2 or 3 past them

        They weren't terrible. Should score some goals and even win a few games once the fixtures turn around.

    7. twoplustwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Weirdly hopeful with Kola Gross and Ritchie left

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

        Kola has a lot of potential this week. You'll be very unlucky with less than 6

      Mendy to Jones look good.

      1. GE

        Yup

    10. ekul the lokonga enthusiast

      Morata is coming in

      But just not right now.

      Lukaku hattrick incoming next week

      But surely palace will tighten up ?? I'm conflicted

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        if you do Lukaku to Morata this week, you deserve all the potential LOLs you'll get next week

      2. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        What makes you think they will tighten up?

      3. Dannyb
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        You'd think they would have done that already tbh. In all sorts. I'm going for Jesus to Morata which gives me Morata, Kaku and Kane. Have David Silva in mid so happy enough with that.

    11. @persecuted_by_mods
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Two more international breaks before the year ends :/ ruins the rhythm!

          I feel for you. Stay away from cliff edges, nooses and sleeping pills.

      • trinzoo
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        T. Davies a good punt ? Most probably WC after next GW but Burnley at home and it looks like they hit some form...

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

          No

          1. trinzoo
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Who for Ince then ? up to 5.9

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

          Annoying for you that Richalison and Ritchie are 6. I would probably go Gross but Albrighton could be a good punt with his fixtures

          1. Rafiki
            • 15 Years

            Not starter right?

      • F4L
        • 11 Years

        Would just like to point out that that Stoke defensive performance was one of the worst I have seen in a long time.....

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

          Bit of an injury crisis by sounds of it

          1. F4L
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            it was, just don't knee jerk Morata in too quickly

      • GAMBIT
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        How did Hazard look today? Is he on anyone's watchlist? Thinking of getting him as a Morata alternative

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Morata cover?

          1. GAMBIT
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            No

            "Alternative" 😛

            Can't fit more than 3 strikers unfortunately

      • La Galatica
        • 9 Years

          8 years, 6 months ago

          Think I've had an average week but can't complain tbh, most of my players got points. Just so happens that certain players have hauled, my team looks good for next week no need to chase points

        • Atimis
