Sunday’s Premier League action is completed by a potentially tumultuous clash at Old Trafford as Manchester United host champions Chelsea.

Inevitably the head-to-head between Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte will hog the media spotlight but the interest of Fantasy managers is likely to lie elsewhere.

David De Gea is the top owned asset on show – he remains part of 43.2% of squads with his managers hoping that the Spaniard can help his side to a sixteenth clean sheet of the season. He’s kept three successive shut-outs at Old Trafford.

But Chelsea have the weaponry to breach Mourinho’s rearguard.

Both Eden Hazard and Willian arrive in superb form, though the pair are relative differentials, owned by 7.9% and 7.5% respectively.

Hazard has six goals in his last six Gameweeks while Willian arrives having scored in an impressive midweek showing against Barcelona. The Brazilian has two goals and three assists in his last two Premier League starts.

That pair will flank Alvaro Morata who earns a recall and first start since Gameweek 23.

Marcos Alonso remains a far more popular Blues asset, though he has lost over 364,000 owners over the last two Gameweeks heading into this afternoon’s encounter. However, the wing-back is still part of 1.1 million squads.

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

    The Alonso show.

    Hoping for Alonso goal but no CHE cs

    Noone man-marking Hazard

    Alonso in the 6 yard box already 😆

    Alonso up alongside Morata!

    Great homage to Tony Pulis by both managers in the article pic. Very apt.

    Cmon Hazard time to punish those who sold you 3 weeks back 😀

    1. Rainer

      Again.

    2. diesel001

      He's been punishing them already!

    Kane scores only goal. 0 bonus. Tomkins concedes one goal. 3 bonus. Makes sense.

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Tomkins team conceeded. Not Tomkins himself.

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      LOL

    3. Mysterion
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      It's almost as if bonus is awarded for more than just scoring goals 😉

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

      Kane might sneek a BAP btw.

      Him losing bps for missed chances is the main problem. Had he scored those though you'd be rewarded anyway.

    You do you, Marcos.

    Jammy United clean locked in

      Ridiculous

    I am not a fan of these flashy billboards we are seeing around pitches these days.I know they are designed to grab ones attention but i just find them a bit distracting.

  14. tm245

    So close!

  15. Sim Simma

    Alonso denied an assist

  16. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Morata cross bar. Was Alonso assist

  17. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Damn. Alonso volleyed cross to Morata off the bar

  18. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Alonso big chance created +BPS!

  19. Zilla
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Thanks crossbar.

  20. Numb

    The average team has the equivalent of 2.5 players in this game

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Got 3 myself. De Gea, Alonso, Hazard

    2. Yellin' in my Ear
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I only have Alonso given Jones no show, however he's worth 2.5 normal players

  21. tm245

    That cross - Morata has to score there.

  22. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    3 - Tomkins (30)
    2 - Sánchez (29)
    1 - Davies (28)

    Kane (23)

    1. Jafooli

      Big baps for so early in the game. Also when did they start playing for Utd or Chelsea?

    2. niloh1
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      How the hell did tomkins get 3 baps?

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      That just seems so wrong ... i know it is the rules but why should a defender on the losing team that didn’t even finish the game get a clean sheet ? That one single rule is something to look at surely ?

      1. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        As you say, thems the rules... Rare occurrence at least.

        Similar to a HT post. I agree we all know the rules and they are clear but there’s something that doesn’t feel right about some of the results they throw up. A tweaking is needed.

    Any Lolascelles, Chupo & McFlurry owners bench boosting next GW?

    1. Chucky

    Hope lingard doesnt come on.

    Tomkins first sub

  25. Differentiator

    Alonso heading for the 3baps. Cmon Chelsea, keep a cleanie!

  26. Zilla

    8 years, 1 month ago

    Final;
    3 - Tomkins (30)
    2 - Sánchez (29)
    1 - Davies (28)

    Disappointing that it was this close

  27. Jafooli
    • 14 Years

    Get in the box Alonso you twerp.....

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      ....oh, you’re already there

  28. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    That would have been a nice goal though. Hazard flings it wide, Alonso volleys the cross in and Morata bangs in it. Nice one-touch stuff

  29. Sim Simma

    I'm surprised Lingard didn't start ...much better player than Martial

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      LOL. No

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Nearly as bad as comparing Salah to Townsend.

  30. Cocky Spaniel Alves

    Hoping for an Alonso hattrick after DDG has been subbed off at 61 mins with the score still 0-0.

    That’s not unreasonable, is it?

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years

      Not at all.
