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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    2. Deulofail
      • 10 Years

    3. Cityzen Kane
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      After BRI and BUR defences today thinking bb in 34 looks dodgey.
      Definitely back thinking 37 is the way to go and yeah, was thinking since last week 38 and Salah TC for sure

  3. Lone Wolf FPL
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Better combo

    a) Lloris, Alonso, Willian, Lingard
    b) Ryan, Christensen, Sanchez, Kenedy

    1. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      A

    Come on Jags, wipe that smile off Ota's face

  6. Eze Really?
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    I have never seen 3 better team goals as I have just witnessed City score.

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      You mean in one game?

      1. Eze Really?
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Yes

    2. Sim Simma
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Wilshere and Rosicky disagree

  7. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years

    Who needs to go first?
    A.Walcott
    B. Shaquiri
    C. Stanislas

    1. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      All 3

    2. Yozzer
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Ugh. Wildcard if you have it

    3. HamezMace
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      B

  8. HamezMace
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    I really hope we see City vs Barca, or Bayern to see how good they really are, against a team that won’t just lie down for them.

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      They will have to meet a good team in order to win the CL anyway, so we should do.

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        True, CL semis this year should be classics

  9. Rik Waller
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 13 days ago

    Is England's best CB, 4th choice at his club?

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Chambers?

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago

      Probably. England's 3 best CBs are Stones, Jones and Maguire IMO.

      1. Rik Waller
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 13 days ago

        Wouldn't fancy Jones in a back 3 though

    1. Cityzen Kane
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 13 days ago
