Saturdayโ€™s events continue with a batch of five afternoon kick-offs with Fantasy managers likely to be focused on events at Wembley Stadium.

Spurs host Stoke City with Harry Kane backed by 1.1 million managers as the leading captain pick for Gameweek 16.

This looks to be a make or break encounter for Kaneโ€™s Fantasy fortunes. He has blanked in eight of 14 starts so far and, more significantly, heโ€™s produced goals and points in just two of his seven home outings.

Up against a Stoke City defence that have shipped 30 goals โ€“ second only to West Ham (32) โ€“ and allowed the most big chances (35) this season, Kane will surely get opportunities to underline his heavy-hitter status and restore the faith.

Meanwhile, Burnleyโ€™s popular defensive options will collide with Watfordโ€™s Richarlison at Turf Moor in a clash that will divide Fantasy managers. The Brazilian has returned a goal or an assist in six of his seven away trips so far, though he now faces a backline that has conceded just three goals in home matches. Ben Mee โ€“ owned by 13.7% – misses out for Sean Dycheโ€™s side, while Matt Lowton is also sidelined.

Elsewhere, Huddersfield host Brighton at the John Smithโ€™s Stadium with the visitors’ Pascal Gross the most popular Fantasy asset on show. The German is backed by 21.2% but has just a single return โ€“ his goal against Stoke in Gameweek 12 โ€“ from his last five Gameweeks.

Crystal Palace entertain Bournemouth at Selhurst Park with the likes of Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Wilfried Zaha drawing attention, while at the Liberty Stadium, Swansea City face a crunch contest with West Brom. Surprisingly, Tammy Abraham โ€“ owned by 11.1% – is benched by Swansโ€™ boss Paul Clement in this one.

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

    I know all the games haven't been played but Christensen is at 75% so wouldn't want to risk it and fix says Gomez will rise today.

    Pope (Elliott)
    *Azpi *Daniels Otamendi Ward (Dunk)
    Salah Hazard Sterling Richarlison (RLC)
    Kane Morata (*Niasse)

    Better option?
    A) Daniels and Niasse to Gomez and DCL -4
    B) Azpi and Daniels to Christensen and Kolasinac -4

    1. Rik Waller
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Why you losing Azpi?

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Because I feel a Kola + Christensen combo gets me more points than Azpi and Gomez

        1. Vlad Tepes
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 4 months ago

          I think Christensen looked pretty good today, the only question is if he's nailed right.

          1. We Will Klopp you
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 4 months ago

            Yep, looks the part though, so surely Conte would be mad to drop someone with such a high ceiling who's playing well

            1. Vlad Tepes
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 4 months ago

              Ye he looks so calm when he plays, he brings calmness and stability to their backline.

          2. Plant Based FPLer
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 4 months ago

            He got one twoed in front of goal for the goal.

            1. Vlad Tepes
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 4 months ago

              Yes a little mistake, but what did Azpil do on the goal he should have been way further up.

              1. Plant Based FPLer
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 4 months ago

                For sure.

        2. Rik Waller
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 4 months ago

          I'd probably save the transfer. Niasse might get a start midweek. Then make the moves after that

          1. We Will Klopp you
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 4 months ago

            Not keen on the Azpi + Daniels to Christensen and Kola moves? To me I see more points in that. Christensen is looking good with baps too

    2. Plant Based FPLer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Christensen was poor today. Looked Llovrenesque.

      1. We Will Klopp you
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Well he's been good while out on loan and in general

      2. Vlad Tepes
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        I don't think so, Cahill and Azpil were worse tbh. You can't blame him for the goal.

  2. Delph & Safety
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Help needed. I won’t be surprised if my rank drops below 1M.

    1. Rik Waller
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Top 20% of all players. Now bad I'd say

      1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        ๐Ÿ™‚ I approve of this attitude

  3. emyoueffsee
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    44 post bps with Salah, Mane and Otamendi to play. Only Ward and Kane(c) did anything for me.

    1. Ode
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Same except Haz (c) ๐Ÿ™‚ Pope Ward and Naughton saved me

    2. Leonard hatred
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      43 with Lacazette, Silva, Salah and Otamendi left to go.

      If laca bags a couple and manchester ends 0-0 i'm more than happy with this week's score tbh.

  4. lordkippe
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    got 2 FT but dont know what to do. Any suggestions ?. Happy with my big hitters, but could be happy changing a goalie, daniels or gross maybe. but dont see many good alternatives atm.

    Foster - Elliot

    Kolasinac - Dann - Mee - Maguirre - Daniels

    Hazard - Salah - Zaha - Gross - RLC

    Kane - Morata - Wilson

    FPL doggo 4 from 4. Keep calm and trust the dog #woofwoof

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I don't like the dog. But fair play.

    2. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      English foreign language?

    3. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      The dog's choice was inconclusive. People who wanted to captain Kane anyway made out he wagged his tail over his card.

  6. ooooo
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Best max 5.5mil striker? DCL?

    FFS Cup Tie First Round:
    --------------------------------------------------------------
    The Snazzy Viking 47 - 25 Your Mum's Athletic
    --------------------------------------------------------------
    Remaining Differentials:

    TSV: Kolasinac, David Silva, Salah.

    1. Chenkuโ•ฐโ˜†โ•ฎ
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      very similar for me.. opp. captained haz.

  8. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone else considering Azpi > Jones this week? Have Courtois as well so chels def still covered

    1. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Jones will get rotated

      1. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Injuries and rotation a worry with him, but nowadays could be said about anyone in the game

      2. Collie01
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        I'm probably doing Jones for Daniels. Even with rotation factored in, he should get more points than Daniels.

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      After Huddersfield I’m doing it

    3. Plant Based FPLer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I lost some respect for him today the way he defended Arnautovich in front of goal. I had Alonso sadly, myself.

    4. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Jones probably can’t pmsy 3 games a week

  9. SkeletONv01
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    I blame Jonty for this.

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Has he still got Lukaku?

    2. Cpt Crunch Scott talent
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Seems fair

  10. JogaSemmedo
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Richarlison owners? What's the plans for him? Stick or sell?

    1. ooooo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Stick

    2. Delph & Safety
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Have to stick with his fixtures.

    3. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Stick.

    4. We Will Klopp you
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Stick of course, have you seen his fixtures?

      1. JogaSemmedo
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Yep fixtures are great but after next week no pressing concerns. Could do with differential as ML leader I'm chasing has him.

    5. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I would look to sell if I could but I have more urgent fires to put out

    6. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Far bigger issues than that

  11. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Lol@ Kane(C)ers

  12. Plant Based FPLer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Which one's going to happen?

    A. Joselu hat trick
    B. One of Fernandez or Lascelles finally come back next game
    C. I get struck by lightning

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      A

      1. Plant Based FPLer
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        1 down. I might need to get a new defender.

  13. Patch
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Anyone had much success with FootballIndex?

  14. awgJose
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    What happened with Gross?

  15. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Zegeelar ---> Kenny or Mariappa ?

  16. ooooo
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Keep or sell Choupo for Gross?

  17. Pep's Money Laundry
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Damn Ogbonna is 4.3m, he must be a decent option as the 5th defender

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Looking at him for a replacement for Zeegelaar

    2. Plant Based FPLer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      West Ham were fantastic.

    3. AllanM
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Problem is he came in to cover injuries

  18. HNI
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Sadly most of the kane kicking knee jerkers have shit rank. All cool kids captained him giving no rise in ranks

    1. LosBlancos
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I don't even have @ 34.5k.
      Still happy to not have him until the DGW, just sad I chose Hazard over Coutinho

    2. XabiAlonso
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      All my ml rivals have him cap this week

  19. Sims
    • 9 Years

    6. HNI
      • 13 Years

      1. XabiAlonso
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        About 9k of them won't be there by the end

  20. PocketZola
    • 8 Years

  21. ZeBestee

  22. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Quaner - 90, 45, 90. (4.5m)

    Is he the way to go for 3-5-2? Or pay more and hope your Everton forward plays?

  23. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    For the coming gw how do these transfers look

    Azpi Kola Gross to Jones Moreno Cout (-4)?

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Already have christensen from Chelsea defense and Salah as pool mid

  24. Oven Glover
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    How come the average is as low as 24 in a gw where the standout captain choice delivered?

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Lots with pool, arsenal , city , united players who are yet to play

      1. Oven Glover
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Don’t mess up my poor attempt to kick the Haz cappers in the nuts with a serious reply ๐Ÿ˜‰

    2. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Many lost faith and went Hazard
      Plus today mainly featured the rubbish teams

    3. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

    Foster Gomes
    Daniels Alonso Dunk Ward Moreno
    Salah Sterling Ramsey Zaha Richarlison
    Kane Morata DCL

    Any suggestions?
