After Brighton claimed a vital win over Arsenal at the Amex Stadium, Sunday’s second and final fixture sees Manchester City entertain Chelsea in the 4pm kick-off.

The league leaders boast two of the top six captain picks for Gameweek 29 in Sergio Aguero (6.8%) and Kevin De Bruyne (2.5%).

Over their last four home matches, Aguero has nine goals and 50 points in Fantasy Premier League (FPL), while De Bruyne has three sets of double-digits and 45 points.

Leroy Sane’s goal and assist at the Emirates on Thursday evening has had a significant impact on the FPL transfer market. The most bought player (235,000+) for Gameweek 29, the German international goes in search of a sixth 10+ points haul in front of his own fans.

Meanwhile, sales of Raheem Sterling look set to escalate as he misses out again. The most sold player in each of the last two Gameweeks, he was transferred out by a hefty 746,000+ during that period.

For the visitors, Eden Hazard arrives on the back of fine recent away output – he’s racked up 40 points in his previous four on the road, thanks to four goals and an assist.

The Belgian looks set to start as a “false 9” today, with Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud named among the Chelsea subs.

Both Pedro and Willian start alongside Hazard, with the Brazilian, in particular, boasting fine form. Willian was bought by over 95,000 FPL managers for Gameweek 29, with last week’s opener at Old Trafford taking his tally to four strikes in the last three matches across all competitions.

    It feels like the Chelsea players think it's 4-0

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      They're happy to lose one nil only.

  2. Salah’s Sonnet

    Oh yes! Blank for Aguero

  3. Henning

    1. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      D Silva probably. No one really nailed.

    2. Rik Waller
      • 8 Years

      Ederson

      1. Rik Waller

    So turns out Arsenal gave the second most embarrassing display from a london team today

    Mark doesn't have Otamendi. BPS wont change

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      I can’t believe Mark doesn’t have ANY City players.

        I don't have any city either. It's not obligatory.

      Perhaps Laporte will get a YC

  6. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Chelsea not even trying

    You would think they would have a go last ten mins at least

  7. Zilla
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Happy that I made Kun to Firmino after all

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Done this and Walcott > Mahrez for a hit

  8. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Chelsea played better when they lost Bournemouth 0-3 at home than this game.

    This is just shambolic.

    If you want to win a game away of home in the best league in the world your GK can’t concede 2 goals like I did today ... it’s simply not possible ... The team fought back but the damage was done .

    1. Je suis le chat
      • 12 Years

      Nice guy, problems deeper than that.

    2. Ron_Swanson
      • 15 Years

      generous

    3. diesel001

      Second goal was his fault to be fair.

    4. Nascimento
      • 10 Years

      If he'd saved both of them they'd have won.

      1. boc610

        Never been the same since that bump on the noggin

    5. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years

      Hope he retires and becomes gk coach. He's too old

    How many times this season has DDG got 3 bonus points?

    1. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      1

    2. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Go to FPL site, click on DDG and see for yourself 🙂

  11. LIARS POKER

    Was set on Hazard for the wc as he's served me well this season but is Willian a better use of funds? Or worth paying for Hazard for being nailed?

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Willian. Haz playing false nine too often

    2. Rostah
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Been wondering this myself lately also, if he can retain his place in the squad definitely

  12. Eddie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    City, backs against the wall. Thrilling.

  13. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Honestly dont think the strategy has been too bad. Just complete lack of quality in the final third for Chelsea. Pedro in particular ruined at least 4 good counter attacks on his own.

    1. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      I guess. Must be embarrassing to watch as a fan though, Man city just knocking it about at walking pace and not a single Chelsea player applying any pressure.

      1. Paul Psychic Octopus
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 4 days ago

        This the bit I don't understand. No press, no effort - as Neville, said, standing like mannequins

        1. Brosstan
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 4 days ago

          Looks to me like they just conceded midfield and wanted the attacking players to save their legs for counter attacks. Of course, they could also just be lazy.

    2. Revival

      Should have came and had a go at least, might lose 3-0 but at least they would have tried and gave everything they had

    3. JJO
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      As long as there are people like you modern football will be shite

  14. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years

    Hazard off lol

    1. Je suis le chat
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      They could have given him the match off.

  15. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Wouldn't be surprised if City buy Hazard next season.

  16. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    89th min and 70m striker comes on

    1. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Should the squad’s price tags dictate who plays?

  17. Alexis Nonsense
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    What did Auba do to deserve 3 bonus points ?

    Did he look good ?

    1. Ron_Swanson
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      nothing and no

    2. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      A forward scoring a goal gets a lot of bonus.

    3. Steve Stiffler
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      definitely not 3 BAPS worth

    4. The special 5
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Looked very dangerous

  18. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years

    Chances of a Milivojevic masterclass tomorrow?

    1. makaveli123
      • 9 Years

      18%

    2. HonestBlatter
      • 15 Years

      2 pens yes

    3. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      -10%

  19. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Hazard could have kept that boat on during the game.

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Coat.

  20. Debauchy
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Hold Ota

  21. Clintymints
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Last week was the time for Auba in for Kun according to fixtures, just the 4 goals made some folk keep...

    Auba misses peno last week, a couple of decent chances and scores this week, fixtures good an blanks, but so do a lot of teams...

    Time to do it this week? Or time to rid of Alonso?

  22. grumpyman
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Chelsea 27% possession.

  23. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Why take Hazard off with 2 minutes to go 😆

    All forwards on and try have go!

    1. Patch
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Nope Conte also has Ota like me

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Because he's a fool.

    3. Nascimento
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      So that the Chelsea fans could give a standing ovation I think.

  24. Jafooli

    Hazzo sellers not punished 😮

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      love those 2 points

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      It was more punishment to have actually kept him. The sellers are the lucky ones.

    Poor fans who went to watch them in this pouring rain .

    1. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 4 days ago

      My son ( Chelsea fan ) was on his way to this game but their were train travel problems which stopped him getting there and he stopped off at my house to watch it. He is very pissed off but very glad that he didn't get there.

      1. tm245
        • 14 Years

        He lucked out.
