The bumper extended Gameweek begins at St Mary’s Stadium with Southampton seeking vital points against dethroned champions Chelsea.
In Fantasy terms, there is plenty of interest in this match.
Chelsea go into the encounter suffering form indifferent form but well backed by Double Gameweek investors with Marcos Alonso and Willian the key assets.
Alonso is part of more than 1.1 million squads though his ownership increased by a modest 7000+ this having last produced more than two points back in Gameweek 24.
Meanwhile, Willian was snapped up by 107,000+ new owners ahead of today’s deadline and is part of just over a million line-ups.
As for Southampton, their teamsheet reveals that Mark Hughes has retained the 3-4-2-1 trialed at Arsenal last weekend, as Jan Bednarek is handed his first Premier League start.
That should see Saints full-backs pushed up which is good news for investors in Cedric Soares, but not so good news for Charlie Austin’s owners.
Returning from injury to score having been introduced from the bench at the Emirates Stadium, Austin’s match fitness may just remain a concern and so he will be charged with making another impact via a cameo role today.
