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 Conte’s side, diffusing Friday’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 Chelsea’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.

      Same. Out this week to raise the money for Richarlison.

        • 10 Years
        8 years, 4 months ago

        Let’s just hope for an assist or two. Still going to hold him given fixtures

      • 14 Years
      8 years, 4 months ago

      I blame zapacosta. Stole his place.

  28. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

    Hazard > Arnautovic?

  29. diesel001

    Alonso is such a defensive liability. He should be helping the defence ffs.

    What a waste of nearly 7M Azpi has been for me. Benched at home to Swansea, then concedes to the lethal strikeforces of Newcastle & West Ham.
