After Arsenal edged past Southampton at the Emirates, the curtain comes down on Gameweek 33 as Chelsea welcome West Ham United to Stamford Bridge.

At home to a defence that’s conceded 11 goals in their last three road trips, Antonio Conte’s side could emerge as big armband differentials this afternoon.

Alvaro Morata and Eden Hazard are among the top 11 captains for GW33, yet both have been handed the armband by less than 2% of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) matches.

Meanwhile, the in-demand Willian is named on the teamsheet for the fifth successive Gameweek. The most bought midfielder (178,000+) for Gameweek 33, the Brazilian has served up four goals and three assists in his last seven league starts.

At the back, however, Andreas Christensen’s run of five straight starts comes to an end ahead of Double Gameweek 34 as Gary Cahill replaces the young Dane on the teamsheet.

For the visitors, Marko Arnautovic leads the line again on the back of his two-goal haul against Southampton last week.

The Austrian has form against Conte’s side, having netted the winner in a 1-0 victory over Chelsea back in Gameweek 16.

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

    Stop wasting Hazard assists Willian

    Willian making sure Hazard doesn't get any attacking returns!!

  3. Rik Waller

    Willy is such a tease

  4. Bury94

    Cheap defenders to replace Stephens for the double?

    1. Majestic Chanka
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      All of Burnley Def, maybe Leicester but you are counting on attacking returns from them.

    What are you doing to me willian?

  6. diesel001

    Ville Ronka gone with a fairly non-template WC (3 Brighton, Southampton defence, Eriksen, Hazard, no Salah etc.) Is he going to be the DGW winner?

  7. Moxon
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Willian could've/should've scored so many

  8. Piggs Boson

    Best value defenders this season: Otamendi, Davies, Azpilcueta.

    The value defenders used to be in the 4.5/5.0 price range. The game has changed.

    1. diesel001
      • 9 Years

      Top 5 much better than the rest. Gap has grown.

      yup. had ota since he was 5.5. been disapointing me lately though

  9. balint84

    A) Hazard+Lowton+Matic (-8)
    B) Pogba+Azpi+Matic (-8)
    C) Matic fix 2+2 points but not necessary, save Kenedy instead

    1. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      No need for Matic. Kenedy is a better option.

    if i have no FH to play in 35, how many dgw players should I aim to have for 34? (I'm playing BB34, but granted many of those players will miss 35). I currently have 10dgw, + auba dilva ota vdH robertson. Plan to get AT LEAST 1 more dgw..

      No real answer.

    2. Thinkering like a Boss
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      7-8 DGW. with that you could fill enough player for gw35

  11. HamezMace
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Price for Neves next season, 5m?

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      No chance. 6.5 at the very least.

      1. HamezMace
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 26 days ago

        Damn

    2. CloudSky
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      6-6.5

  12. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 26 days ago

    This is so frustrating. None of my players want to score

  13. pakornk
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Is it only me or most of the time Alonso has no clue what's he doing on the pitch?

    1. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Don’t think he’s a great player but good for FPL.

    2. Majestic Chanka
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      It’s how he gets the element of surprise!

  14. SADIO SANÉ

    eurgh...being a Willizard and Vahrez owner this week could have been so much better...and don't get me started on Sterling 😀

    1. HamezMace
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Why, what did Sterling do? 🙂

      1. Clintymints
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 26 days ago

        miss some seriously good chances

      2. Coaly
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 26 days ago

        Missed a hatty

      3. Piggs Boson
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 26 days ago

        He single-footedly lost City the game.

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      Willizard sounds like an x-rated Pokemon.

  15. Clintymints
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Willian should have at least a goal by now

    Alonso out of the game today it seems but a cs would be nice

  16. FPL Scoop

    Do we think Salah will be changed position to a forward on FPL next year? (That would suck...).
    What price do we think he'll start at next year? 10? 10.5?

    1. dark91
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      No and 10.5

    2. TorresMagic™

      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years

      1. Thinkering like a Boss
        • 9 Years

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

    4. Majestic Chanka
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      No and 11.5 I reckon

    5. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

  18. diesel001
    • 9 Years

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 26 days ago

      More likely to be on the piss

  19. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 26 days ago

    Willian could be on a hattie

  20. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 26 days ago

    That would have been perfection...

    Not to be 🙁

  21. SuperMane Returns

    • 9 Years

  28. Sailboats
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 26 days ago

  29. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 26 days ago

  30. Collie01
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    As a Willian and Hazard owner, the last few minutes have not made for good reading!
