The Gameweek begins in the vast amphitheatre that is the London Stadium as West Ham host champions Chelsea in the early kick-off.

From a Fantasy perspective, the big news is that Alvaro Morata starts for Antonio Conteโ€™s side, diffusing Fridayโ€™s reports stating that he had pulled up in training. The Spaniard leads the line for the Blues, with Eden Hazard presumably deployed up in support in the No 10 role. That pair have scored or assisted 12 of Chelseaโ€™s 15 goals away from home this season and will surely carry the threat to the Hammers.

Elsewhere for Chelsea, Andreas Christensen earns a sixth successive start in defence, while David Zappacosta earns a recall at right wing-back with Victor Moses rested to the bench, this despite his two assists in the 3-1 win over Newcastle United.

The West Ham line-up includes Adrian in goal, with his performance at Manchester City in Gameweek 15 earning him the nod over Joe Hart. Both Andy Carroll and Chicharito have returned to fitness but are kept in reserve by David Moyes as Michail Antonio leads the attack.

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

    Come on the Hazardous one!

  2. diesel001

    Hazard vs Kane vs Salah vs Aguero

    Going to be a fun GW!

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

      Yeah 'fun'.

    2. Kun Tozser
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      ... vs Coutinho

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

        ... vs Iwobi

  3. SkeletONv01

    Worst GW ever.

    Guess the first goal scorer of the day.

    My guess is Lanzini. (not in my team)

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

      Christensen (non-owner) from a Zappacosta cross. Has looked dangerous.

    2. Bellerinmondo
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Alonso

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

    Come on the Morataus one!

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

    Surely Obiang has to man mark Hazard in this game. And Noble on Fabregas. Cut the supply out and get one of the centre-backs to act as the extra man in midfield.

  7. SirStevieG
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Salah (c) and Kane (vc) in-case game is called off.

    Let's gooooo!

  8. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Have Alonso, Christensen, Hazard.

    1-3 with Morata hat-trick incoming.

    1. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      What did you do with Kane, T.L.C.?

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Capped ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

        I'm a sucker for pain.

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

          Feel you. Morata, Haz and Christ here, couldn't take the Kane pain anymore.

        2. FPL Virgin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years

        It’s actually a lowercase ‘a’

                8 years, 4 months ago

                That’ll do.

                H for attainment
                a for effort
                .

      Looks lively

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

        In the warm up

    3. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      He was probably most transferred in this week, unlikely to get anything ๐Ÿ˜›

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

        I brought him in for a hit, will probably get injured

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

        Coutinho was actually.

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 4 months ago

          Ohh... ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

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

    Ville Ronka captained Hazard. Does Ville know?

    1. Kun Tozser
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      How’s he getting on this season ?

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

      Hazard is just a type of Belgian chocolate in his factory.

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

      He captained Kane

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

      Apparently the stalkers were saying he's made no changes at all.

  14. Vatroslav
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Captained Alonso due to Morata reports that he might miss out today. Let's see how this one goes

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

      Should have captained Morata, VC Alonso.

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

        Feared Morata might get the last 10/15 minutes

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

          Oh well, no clean sheet then...

  15. Ronnies
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Guys,

    Only way I can get hazard is by doing the following;

    silva > hazard
    firmino > austin / DCL

    Thoughts please ?

    Tnks.

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

      Do it

    2. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      Probably best to wait for the matches this weekend.

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

      Rest up. The first game has just begun and lots can change.

    4. BONZ
      • 16 Years

      To late for this GW - sit back relax and watch the GW playout.

  17. The Rock
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Looks like the pitch has been narrowed in a little bit. Hopefully won't affect Hazard's output!

  18. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    Has Kane scored yet??? ๐Ÿ˜Ž

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

    The dog on reddit, who did he (C)?

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

      Very inconclusive. Did wag tail nearer Kane though...

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

      The dog knows nothing.

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

    FML of my two MLs, I am the only one who has captained Hazard...

    Can't bode well for me if everyone else has committed to the same Kane cap...

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

      Kane being owned is diff in my main ML nevermind being capped.

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

      Chin up. You don't make sense, so that's a plus for Hazard captain ๐Ÿ™‚

  22. FPL ZB
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 9 Years

    Double Chelsea def with Zappacosta trying to defend doesn’t look good

  23. Az

    • 16 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    My cup match.

    him vs me

    speroni vs pope
    alonso vs otamendi
    dunk vs duffy
    tarkwoski vs daniels

    ramsey vs coutinho
    loftus cheek vs gross

    Not going to be much in this.... hoping Cout does the business tomorrow!

    1. Chenkuโ•ฐโ˜†โ•ฎ
      • 11 Years

      Tight but he has the edge me feels.

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years

        hmm I dunno quietly confident.

  24. Woy_is_back
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 4 months ago

    West Ham defending very very deep, not good for Morata/Hazard.

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

      Its been less than 5 minutes...

  25. SirStevieG

      No Drinkwater plus Alonso is a liability.
