After Mohamed Salah’s late winner for Liverpool at Selhurst Park, a further six matches get underway at 3pm as the Gameweek 32 action ramps up.

Plenty of attention will be focused on Romelu Lukaku as Man United welcome Swansea to Old Trafford.

The top transfer target for Gameweek 32 and second most popular captain (13.4%), the Red Devils’ frontman has produced eight goals and two assist in his last 11 club outings across all competitions.

At the back, Chris Smalling – the most bought defender over the break – retains his place, with Victor Lindelof surprisingly partnering him at centre-half as Eric Bailly warms the bench.

A popular pair for our Wildcards, Brighton’s Pascal Gross and Leicester wide man Riyad Mahrez go head-to-head at the Amex Stadium.

Gross has averaged 6.2 points per home match for the Seagulls, while the Algerian has returned a goal or assist in 11 of his last 14 league starts.

Elsewhere, Charlie Austin makes a welcome return for Southampton’s trip to West Ham.

With a pair of expected Double Gameweeks to follow, many will be keen to scout the Saints’ striker – despite failing to feature since Gameweek 19, he remains their top scorer, with six efforts to his name.

Three goals from Marko Arnautovic over the international break underlines his goal threat ahead of this proverbial six-pointer.

Meanwhile, Newcastle’s Kenedy has another chance to stake a claim as our budget midfielder of choice ahead of an expected Double Gameweek to follow.

The on-loan wide man bagged 16 points in his previous home outing and entertains Huddersfield’s travel-sick defence at St James’ Park.

    So lucky to have got Morgan's 5 points off the bench for Bailly. Bit gutted since I had Valencia there, but could have been a whole lot worse!

    1. Salah’s Sonnet

    Just want everyone to know if they think their week was bad:

    If Lukaku had got his brace I get $400
    If Murray scores his penalty I get $150
    Not 1 goal other than Salah & not 1 CS

      If Bong had scored that big chance in added time I'd have won £450 from £2.

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

        Harsh! Have a bong it'll help you relax. God knows I want one. Oh wait God doesn't exist clearly

    1. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

    2. Epic Fail

      That score is well needed with your rank.

      1. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        *Actually goes to check rank*

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

          1. Epic Fail
            • 15 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            You're doing ok. Decent green tonight. Unless Man City decide to tear it up, which is possible.

  13. Hart-ake
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Idiotically benched Chilwell 🙁

    1. Sif
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Chilwell and Morgan benched :p

    2. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      3rd subbed him as I let everyone talk me into it...

      1. Hart-ake
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah, I was convinced by the talk of 'Leicester don't keep clean sheets away...'

        1. Zenith UK
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Fuming with myself... Only the second (maybe third time) I haven't fully trusted my own gut this week (on WC as well) and it has cost me.

          1. sortitoutman
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            same as me but watch leicester concede next week if we play there defenders

    3. sortitoutman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      not really cos so did i but i also had murray who missed a pen so leicester should have conceded and my cup rival had vardy cap 96 min goal, not the best of results for me

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

    I have Murray, my rival Chilwell, so that miss from Murray is a pain

    1. Boo Ya Ka Sha
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      which one?

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

        Penalty miss from Murray

  15. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I am no longer cyber friends with those who told me to start Murray...

  16. The Cherry Picker
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    How can Rondon be on for 3 BPS when all he did was score a conciliation goal?!

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

      He didn't lose the ball

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm sure he did other stuff too.

    3. TheTinman
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Fantastic player in general play

    4. lugs
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      same for King scoring a penno

    5. The Cherry Picker
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He’s on the losing side though. Broken.

  17. Dacra
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Willian on the bench tomorrow could be nasty!

    1. the snazzy viking
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Hazard haul incoming 😉

    2. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Morgan 1st on bench. Not that bad

  18. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    VAAAARRRRRDYYYYYYYYYYYT

    1. the snazzy viking

      dial up?

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

    DDG loves only getting two saves.

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

      Apart from that Arsenal game!

  20. Sailboats
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Vardyyyyyyy OMG

  21. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Can not wait for Raheem's hat-trick.

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

      Would love this. Assisted by KDB and an Ota CS. Instead Everton will probably win 1-0 with a dodgy penalty.

  22. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone got a worse score than 22 (-4) ? Need Arsenal to thump Stoke tomorrow badly.

  23. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    When Chilwell outscores both Mahrez and Vardy and you have all three except Chilwell is your 3rd sub...

    1. G-Whizz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Ouch!

  24. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    WC32 success? 62 post BAPS. Mustafi Willian Auba to go. Morgan 1st on bench

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

      Clearly yes.

    2. Zenith UK
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Very

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

    How many does Vardy have now?

    That must be a hatty at least!

    1. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      😀

  26. DJ1000
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    So playing my wc and getting rid of gw31 dross paid off massively. My main rival on 20 and I am close to 50 with 4 players yet to play. Kiko an inspired buy.

  27. Patch
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Followed the cardinal rule of not capping a first gamer (i.e. Salah)

    Annoyingly the same rule has to apply next Saturday wtf Salah why are you doing this to me...

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

      Auba(c) may still pay off

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

        Salah keeps on trickling them in, gonna be hiding big time next Saturday lunch time too...

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

          Sorry guys I am going to bring Vardy in and ruin him like Mahrez
