The London Stadium provides the venue for our first of Sunday’s two encounters, as West Ham host champions Manchester City.

In Fantasy terms, there is no question that our focus is largely on the visitors.

Pep Guardiola has named a strong line-up, with Vincent Kompany and David Silva the only notable omissions from his regular starting XI.

Silva was bought by 65,000+ ahead of Saturday’s deadline, following a run of four goals and three assists, along with 11 bonus points over his previous seven Gameweeks.

The playmaker’s absence means that Ilkay Gundogan is retained, while Leroy Sane is also recalled as Bernardo drops to the bench.

Elsewhere, Raheem Sterling starts for a sixth successive match having returned a goal or an assist in each of his last five. The winger was the third-most signed ahead of Gameweek 36, losing out only to Harry Kane and team-mate Gabriel Jesus.

The Brazilian striker leads the City attack once again, making his third successive start having featured in the XI in four of the last five. He has three goals and three assists over that run and is backed by 158,000 captaincies (2.7%), a similar figure to team-mate Kevin De Bruyne (150,000 or 2.5%).

For West Ham, their hopes of gaining a result surely rely on the performance of Marko Arnautovic. The Austrian has produced ten goals and five assists in 16 Gameweek starts as the Hammers’ lone striker. He delivered again at Arsenal last time out, though he continues to offer a differential option ahead of a Double Gameweek as part of just 6.2% of squads.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    As a Sane only owner, what's best for me? OG+Sane A or Sane G+Sterling A?

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      The one that gives you the most points and bps ?

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Rival has Sterling so gains a point (excluding baps) if Sane gets the goal.

    Sane just swore on his kids lives that it was his goal.

    EDIT no he didn't cos he's not a complete bellend

  24. DR0GBA
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 days ago

    Surely that's an OG???

    I don't care if it was 'on target' the shot was basically a pass to the keeper....the deflection was huge and is clearly the reason the goal occurred

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      The deflection was huge but the shot was on target...

    2. Samwise the Brave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Not the rules. SOT = goal

      1. DR0GBA
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 days ago

        Not sure if I agree with the rules, not even bitter but in circumstances like that I feel it deserves to be an OG

    3. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Would you like some peanuts with your pint of bitter?

    4. Zilla
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 days ago

      Not owner if who was involved but deflection but most of the time is still a goal for the guy who shot it.
