Gameweek 21 is upon us with six afternoon kick-offs getting things underway.

Fantasy managers will be fixated on Stamford Bridge and Anfield in particular, with Liverpool and Chelsea backed for big victories and points aplenty.

Mohamed Salah is the most-captained player for the Gameweek and starts against Leicester City having produced a goal or an assist in 11 of his previous 12 Gameweeks.

He sits alongside Roberto Firmino in a Liverpool front three, with the Brazilian having produced three successive double-figure returns. Meanwhile, Philippe Coutinho also starts in a powerful Liverpool line-up. He’s supplied four goals and five assists from his last five Gameweek starts.

But Leicester could provide a stubborn barrier at Anfield, which is perhaps not the case at Stamford Bridge with Chelsea’s opponents Stoke apparently conceding the match from kick-off.

Cursed by injuries at the back and with Kurt Zouma ineligible to face his parent club, Mark Hughes makes the decision to keep key players in reserve.

Antonio Conte has also made changes, resting his own star man – Eden Hazard. The Blues boss brings in Pedro and Willian to flank Alvaro Morata, while Andreas Christensen returns from illness but only makes the bench.

Elsewhere, Richarlison will bid to revive his Fantasy stock after failing to find the net in eight Gameweeks. He faces bottom club Swansea City at Vicarage Road with just three assists to his name over that dry spell.

Clean sheets will be the order of the day across the remaining matches, with Everton, Burnley and Brighton all popular sources of budget defensive signings.

However, with squads stretched, there will doubtless some managers relying on points from Huddersfield strikers Laurent Depoitre and Colin Quaner when they take on the Clarets.

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

    1. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Cool. I was too conservative and missed potential CS from Schindler.

  15. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Did McBurnie get the assist? FML if he did. Coming on for Hazard for me.

    If Morata can’t score against the prem league’s worst defence surely he has to go.

    1. CostaCoffee
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      He did score a hat trick against them too tho

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Other issues, DGW buys save him for another week.

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years

        For real?!

    3. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Who to get is the problem.

    4. supersham
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Agreed.

    5. Clump
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yup

    6. Delph & Safety
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yep, but aside from Kane which other forwards do we go for?

    7. QPRUTD
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Did you bring him i Jonty. I did and captained him. Cost me badly

        • 16 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        No - I went full dullard - Ward to Schindler.

    8. Mark
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 19 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I'll probably go back to Bobby when we're through this period. Just didn't trust Klopp to play him twice in three days.

        These hits really are Morataish. 😉

    9. Diva
      • 11 Years

      He has scored 3 against the Premier League's worst defence this season...

    10. NestorC
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Thanks Jonty for putting me of Morata(C) in today's hot topic, cheers

        Pleasure.

        Betting against salah scoring will only end badly - the guy is a machine.

    11. FPL_Sponge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I’ve only just got him in... and for who though? Such a dearth of options up top. Firmino only real alternative unless go just Kane and two cheapies up top.

      Fixtures are still good so being patient.

  18. WVA
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Can't believe Kane isn't going to drop, was on -140 last night!?

    1. Burger

      You can be sure that Mark played a part in that.

  21. CostaCoffee
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Hazard (C)
    Morata VC
    Chelsea players are generally not good captain options as everyone seems to get in on the goals, I just never seem to learn

  22. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Big red arrows incoming for us Morata captainers.

    Also a Christensen and hazard owner.

    Bad times!

    1. Hybrid.power

    2. QPRUTD
      • 9 Years

  23. GreenArrows
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    A lot of people were planning on taking hazard out for a DGW player...still doing that?

    A fresh hazard vs Arsenal has goals all over it...could be rotation for spurs mids

    1. Salarrivederci
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Keeping Hazard. Doing Richarlison -> Son

  24. Thiga
    • 10 Years

  26. WrightnBright
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Coutinho surely rested Next game? Tempted to swap for Alli/Eriksen for DGW

    1. Jar Jar Winks
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      off to barca m8

  27. Delph & Safety
