The Gameweek begins under the rain at Turf Moor, as Burnley host champions-elect Manchester City.

For Fantasy managers, this immediately puts key assets and – for many – the Gameweek captain – under scrutiny.

Sergio Aguero takes on the Clarets on the back of a six-point return in midweek and a 17-point blast against Newcastle last weekend.

The Argentine has boosted his ownership by 295,000 managers ahead of the early kick-off, having scored both City goals in the corresponding fixture last season.

Kevin De Bruyne was rested in that match but starts today as he bids to extend his compelling form that has delivered a goal and five assists in his last six Gameweeks. However, he has produced just a single goal and assist in his last six on the road.

Raheem Sterling’s away record – with two goals and three assists in that same six-match spell – is stronger, though he boasts just a single goal in his last five Gameweeks.

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

      Dyche's game-plan was perfect. Unlucky to concede to Danillo.

        you seem to write lots of silly predictive posts so you can boast post if by chance the event happens, so you can then ascribe for yourself some expert knowledge
