Saturday continues with five afternoon kick-offs, as an array of Gameweek 31 assets audition for our squads.

Three of the eight teams involved next weekend are at home today, with Everton and Huddersfield Town perhaps under the main focus.

At Goodison Park, Fantasy managers will be assessing the merits of Theo Walcott and Gylfi Sigurdsson, along with full-backs Seamus Coleman and Leighton Baines. All four start for the Toffees against Brighton, as they bid to make our line-ups for a Gameweek 31 visit to Stoke City.

But the Seagulls arrive on Merseyside in outstanding form, having fired more shots than any other team over the last four Gameweeks and with Glenn Murray – the fourth most signed player before today’s deadline – boasting five goals in as many matches.

Meanwhile, Huddersfield Town’s options will also be under scrutiny.

Steve Mounie, Rajiv van la Para and Alex Pritchard are among the names to be considered as the Terriers host Swansea City at the John Smiths Stadium today.

West Brom’s squad is certainly more off the radar, with our expectations perhaps limited to their threat at set-pieces. Nonetheless, Alan Pardew’s side have one more opportunity to impress before Gameweek 31 when they take on Leicester City at The Hawthorns.

Elsewhere, Newcastle host Southampton and West Ham United take on Burnley, with Marko Arnautovic perhaps the most notable asset on show over those two encounters.

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

    Arnie definitely leaving my team.

    He plays for a terrible team.

    2. Delph & Safety

      Same. Where to go for 31? Not many options.

        Brought him in two weeks ago and almost captained him this week.

        Luckily I gave Mahrez the nod but yeah, even at £6.9m Arnie is overpriced right now. On his way out for sure.

      Anyone know if there is a way to determine whether a rival has deployed their free hit chip in the next coming Gameweek? Would it show the number of transfers made or will it just show as 0 like when you’re on a wildcard?

      1. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years

        No way of knowing

      2. dark91

        No you won't be able to know before the GW starts

        Thanks guys. I guess if I see they have made transfers then I can assume they haven’t?

      What happens if a game is abandoned, is it treated in FPL as if it never happened or do the accumulated points get frozen as if it is completed?

      1. Yozzer
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I have an email from them regarding this . All points are taken away

        As clear a red card as you will ever see.

    13. FCSB

      Any chance that Walcott ‘goal’ is reviewed?

      2. Brosstan

        Should be. Its not clear at all who touches it. Why randomly rule it as an own goal?

      Brought in Walcott. How infuriating.

      Wow Burnley. Definitely the most underrated defensive team this season. Holding well

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years

        Really? Ben Mee has been useless for me for ages

          Not FPL points wise. In general, they don't let in too many

      This is probably the wrong time of the day to ask this but....
      If you use free hit, is it like a wildcard that I can chop and change all week or is it just a one off transfer session?

      That was a deliberate attempt to harm from Knockhaert. I'd love to see him banned for the rest of the season. Deliberate leg breaker.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        It was reckless 3 match ban is not enough for that blatant attempt to injure a fellow professional.
