Saturday’s action concludes at Goodison Park as Everton and Manchester City go head-to-head at 5.30pm.

As expected, Pep Guardiola has taken no chances with Sergio Aguero’s fitness ahead of the midweek Champions League quarter-final first leg against Liverpool.

Sold by a hefty 347,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers last week, the Argentine misses out altogether today, with Gabriel Jesus leading the line against a defence that’s mustered just a single clean sheet in their last 11 league matches.

With no Aguero, Kevin De Bruyne is the most captained player in this one, with 2.6% armband backing.

Yet it’s David Silva who has been City’s most prolific player on the road, averaging 7.7 points on his travels.

Guardiola’s men arrive with nine clean sheets away from home – more than any side.

With four goals in his last three league outings, the Toffees’ winter signing Cenk Tosun looks the likeliest to breach that resilient backline.

    Jesus to be valuated lower next year? 9.5?

    1. willl
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

    2. Ghost Gooner

    Disappointed with 48 pts on wc

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

      You'd be even more disappointed on 39

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

      A WC isn't just for Easter. Keep the head up, Milhouse!

  8. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years

    Otamendi red would be good. And an Everton 1 nil win.

    1. Garlana
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

      The perfect result. But never gonna happen

    2. Positive vibes
      • 9 Years

      • 13 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 12 days ago

        Surprised considering he scored a screamer.

        Sane goal

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

      Disallowed.

      1. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 12 days ago

    3. Jafooli
      • 14 Years

      • 9 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

      4 Arsenal?

      1. Deulofail
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 12 days ago

        Effectively, yeah.

        Aubameyang captain

          • 9 Years

  13. aborg
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 12 days ago

    I have Chilwell 1st sub. I have Alonso, Monreal and Son left to play. Anyone thinks that one of these might not play?

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

      Monreal might get rested if Wenger wants the EL

      1. aborg
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 12 days ago

        That would be good for me this gw if he does 🙂

    • 9 Years

    1. Majestic Chanka
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 12 days ago

      If Southgate goes for anyone other than Pope he’s an idiot, play the form keeper!

        • 9 Years
        8 years, 12 days ago
