Gameweek 8 concludes at the King Power Stadium with Leicester City hosting West Bromwich Albion.

The Fantasy Football community will be torn heading into this encounter, with allegiances split between the home attack and the Baggies backline.

Jamie Vardy is undoubtedly the star turn on show. Owned by 16.3% of managers, the five-goal striker was brought in by 294,000 ahead of Gameweek 8, the third most popular transfer target. He has goals in his last two in front of his own supporters, but is yet to score against West Brom at home in three attempts.

Elsewhere for the Foxes, Harry Maguire boasts an ownership of 7.4%, attracting just over 40,000 new managers prior to Saturday’s deadline. The centre-back has a goal and an assist from his three home appearances so far.

Ahmed Hegazi remains the most popular asset in the West Brom camp. Still part of 1.3 million squads, he’s been benched by 353,000 (26.9%) ahead of tonight’s clash.

Meanwhile, Ben Foster was due to be backed by an ownership of just over 800,000 but will play no part in tonight’s match having been ruled out with a knee problem. Over 347,000 of his managers named Foster in their starting XI and now turn to their reserve keeper.

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

      A brace, a goal, an assist, not getting booked, not getting sent off, making 60 mins.

      Anything!

        Boaz will give you the 1 point.

    In order to beat my H2H opponent I need Okazaki to come on late in the second half so he gets 1 point and then get a yellow so he gets -1 for a total of zero. If not he will get 2 points from an auto sub and beat me by 1 point. Lol.

    Chance of this happening...?

    1. Scout Pics
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Zero

      1. Red Dagger ✪

        Well he is on the bench so first part of my dream is true no...?

    Be interesting to see how Nacho plays tonight could become a viable prospect if he puts in a few good performances. Just hoping he doesn't become a Macheda (he was the next Pele for those who never heard of him)

    1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭

      Replied previous. 🙂

      1. Syd.
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Yeah i saw that 🙂

        Pity the dildo brothers wouldn't cough up the money, West Ham would have been the perfect club for him

        1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭

      Interestingly Macheda's goals won United 4 points. Without them Liverpool would have won the title.

      1. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
        9 years, 3 days ago

        That alone makes him one of the true greats

  9. VFORVANDETA

    Vardy Magu.

      Legs broken first min in a collision with each other I think 😉

    1. L S P

      knee knack

  12. Scotty B
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Best replacement for Salah?

    A Silva
    B Sane
    C Sterling

    1. THE Wild Rover
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Salah

      1. Syd.
        9 years, 3 days ago

        This

    2. Rock n Grohl
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Check GW 10 onwards before making that call. If you're sold alreadys then Silva for consistency v Stirling for explosive returns. Stirling just edges it imo

      ACB

    Best defender to get for TAA who costs 6.0 or less? Kinda put off by Chelsea now that Kante is out and can't protect them. Jones or a City def perhaps?

    Already have DDG - Elliott
    Bavies - Hegazi - Mee - TAA - Mbemba

    1. ENZO SZN™
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Jones the season keeper.

      1. PDM TOP 1,000 any Season kr…
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Surely DDG is the season keeper !

  14. THE Wild Rover
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Never had a penalty save in all the years I've played. Foster saving a Vardy effort would be lovely 🙂

    1. tisza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      would be a miracle seeing as Myhill starts 🙂

      1. THE Wild Rover
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Sarcasm is hard on the web 😉

          You have to flag it. A bit. 😉

            see a simple emoji change makes all the difference 🙂

    2. Naboo

      Myhill in goal

    3. Fred54

      How the fudge anyone signed you I will never know.

    4. Syd.

      Take it you haven't seen the teamnews 🙂

          Thankfully I don't 😉

    6. LAMELA_AND_CONSUELA

      I will be difficult because Foster does not play:)

    7. THE SHEEP HUNTERS
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Feed the family for a week on that catch.

  15. Naboo
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Would Kane > Aguero be madness? Looks to me like it could pay off (CL dependant) with WC still in the back pocket for GW12.

  16. Differentiator
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Morgan hattrick odds?

    1. ☈☾
      9 years, 3 days ago

      1 in 1000

    2. Fred54
      9 years, 3 days ago

      About the same chance of WR showing his face here again before half time.

    3. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      9 years, 3 days ago

      50/50

    4. GuyIncognito
      9 years, 3 days ago

      About as likely as Leicester winning the Premier League.

  17. gonzalocampos

    Come on Jamie, I need a double.

    1. VFORVANDETA
      9 years, 3 days ago

      He'll give you triple.

  18. ☈☾

    Foster injury serious?

    1. Differentiator
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Just checking his MRI scan now

      1. Differentiator
        9 years, 3 days ago

        Yes, several weeks out

    2. Naboo
      9 years, 3 days ago

      Nah he's joking

  20. Sims

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      9 years, 3 days ago

      9 years, 3 days ago

      Think attack for Citeh not defence.

  22. Alan The Llama
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Hegazi yellow

    1. Scout Pics
      9 years, 3 days ago

      He'll be getting sent off when Vardy does a Richarlison against him later

  23. Syd.

    A - Jones

        9 years, 3 days ago

        Choice of words ain't appropriate for this site when that happens

  29. DA Minnion (Former great)
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Vardy is such a toe rag.

  30. Fred54
    9 years, 3 days ago

    Well at least Hegazi's not on negative points....
