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

        Yep had them as well as Naughton and Davies 🙁 Rough with the Kane (C) and Morata starts...

    53 after BPS with Sanchez (C), Firmino and Elliot to play, which is ok I guess!

    Went high risk with Sanchez as differentiator instead of Aguero as he's due a big game where he reminds everyone how good he is. Shame all the big guns also performed this week making it a futile gesture!

    1. Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years

      Average

      1. TomSaints
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Bang average, but a goal and assist for Sanchez and looking at 70-80 points and well set for upcoming nice Arsenal fixtures.

      1. TomSaints
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Haha, no need for that. Though as I captained him last week as well, this plan has gone poorly to date.

      • GAMBIT
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Going with Kane, but would captain Lukaku if I had him

      • Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I think I’ll go Lukaku

        1. We Will Klopp you
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Kannneee!

      • Mark-O
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Huddersfield look pretty tight

        Might go with Lukaku with that disarrayed Palace

      • La Roja
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Big rom

      • MikeDuff
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Has to be Lukaku after Palace and Huddersfields defensive performances of late

      • Hansel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Kane but would go Rom if I had him

    2. More Tragic
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Mkhi needs to go after Palace.

      Congrats to Kane holders, you've got bigger balls than I've got.

      Kun will still win in the end though. 😉

      Morata FTW

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

        Kane, what a legend 😛

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

        Get rid him for Silva.

      3. Mark-O
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Probably will keep him until Huddersfield match imo

        Pool's set piece defending is pretty bad

    3. Rash
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Kaku Kane (k)un success

          • 15 Years

          Will the Lukaku goal be enough to halt sales?

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

            Depends how many people look at the fixture

          2. La Roja
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Absolutely

            Palace is woeful

          3. @persecuted_by_mods
              8 years, 6 months ago

              I don't think so

              People are selling before Palace at home?

              1. @persecuted_by_mods
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  All the big strikers outscored him, that's all people will see

                • 11 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                with Palace next, should be

                  • 15 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  Halted a lot this week though. He's consistency epitomised

                8 years, 6 months ago

                Morata and Kun are tempting, Kane will no longer be sold too but theres CP next, on the edge...

            • fedolefan
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Have all 4 of Azpis assists gone to Morata?

                • 13 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                Yes

            • aborg
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Kun a goal and an assist.
              It's the least I would have expected from him...nothing less.

              I'm very happy as I kept Kane and captained Aguero, although I lost a couple of points, but had Silva to make up for that :)))

                Chances of Abraham starting next week? Worth a -4 to switch to Bony?

                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  We thinking Azpi plays every minute again this season? Xmas period is hectic this season but if Conte plays anyone in all games, it'll surely be him? That along with the chemistry with Morata, being a BPS monster and enjoying a shot have me swaying...

                  Strongly thinking of Alonso -> Azpi on WC next GW.

                    Even if he gets rested in one game, he's still a machine and probably a reliable pick over that horrendous period

                    Now its up to me whether I'm sacrificing kane, aguero or Lukaku for Morata

                    65 after baps with Firmino, Ritchie. Kola and Elliot to go. Shame Alonso got subbed.

                    is there an argument for lukaku to morata after palace?

                              Thanks. After's no good. Can't see him lasting that long.

                          Why's everyone so desperate to get rid of Mkhi with Palace at home coming up? I'm happy to continue with him as my sole United attacking cover

                            Because money is being directed towards frontline. A lot of people have jumped on the 523 or 433 bandwagon as those teams seem to be doing very well.

                          Smooth: played my free hit chip when I was smashed in the pub, got me a good 65ish with 3 to play.

                          Rough: my free hit chip is gone.... and Morata was in my normal team.

                          I am so bad at this game but I've made an art form out of stuff like this.

                          Anyone had a worse start than me? Sitting on 31 from 6 after Baps

                              Firmino, Kaku and Jesus.

                              Missed out on all the hauls. Jesus' autosub is no other than 2 pointer Tarroll

                            This, got Mkhi in so makes it easier
