Hazard the Fantasy focal point as Chelsea kick-off Gameweek 9

Eden Hazard (£11.4m) will be the Fantasy Premier League focal point as Chelsea get Gameweek 9 started this lunch-time.

He comes into the Blues’ meeting with Manchester United at Stamford Bridge as the second-most owned asset in FPL, behind only Sergio Aguero (£11.3m) with 51.0% backing.

Fantasy managers will also be hoping for a clean sheet with Marcos Alonso (£7.0m) still in 45.9% of squads.

Investment in Manchester United has waned in recent weeks with their most popular option David De Gea (£5.8m). He remains owned by 18% despite going four Gameweeks without a clean sheet.

Their most fashionable outfield option is Paul Pogba (£8.1) with 13.9% backing. Interestingly, the Frenchman has been tipped by  Joe’s famed Goals Imminent table.

On the injury front, both Antonio Rudiger (£5.9m) and Mateo Kovacic (£5.9m) came through doubts over their fitness while Ross Barkley (£5.7m) was named on the bench.

Luke Shaw (£5.1m) overcame his knock to start for Man United.

CHELSEA XI (4-3-3): Kepa, Azpilicueta, Rudiger, David Luiz, Alonso, Jorginho, Kante, Kovacic, Willian, Hazard, Morata.

MAN UNITED XI (4-3-3): De Gea, Young, Lindelof, Smalling, Shaw, Matic, Pogba, Mata, Rashford, Martial, Lukaku.

    Should've been a risk taker this week.

    Picking Knockaert over Deulofeu or Josh Murphy looks worse and worse.

      Yeah, I'm going to scout Deulofeu in this match. Surprised he's starting so soon.

        He was always gonna start this game. The only issue was his conditioning. What put me off was that Gracia said that he wasn't 100% sharp yet.

        Those fixtures of HUD new sou are so enticing after this one.

      Thoughts? Wildcard still available but pretty happy with the core of my team

      Pickford Stek
      Alonso Robbo Shaw Doherty WB
      Salah Hazard Richarlison Maddison Stephens
      Agüero Mitrovic Ings

      Do the goalkeepers, Shaw, ings warrant a wildcard? Only player I really want that I don’t have is Mendy
