Gameweek 37 comes to a conclusion this evening with two more Premier League matches.

Crystal Palace v Wolverhampton Wanderers and Manchester City v Bournemouth both get underway at 20:00 BST.

The match at Selhurst Park is a bit of a dead rubber, but the other fixture is of huge importance in the race for the Champions League – if Pep Guardiola’s side win or draw at the Etihad, they move up to third.

Guardiola makes four changes to his line-up.

As for Bournemouth, two changes see Julian Araujo and Justin Kluivert replace Adam Smith and Alex Scott.

      I benched Isak and played Moosh. You don’t deserve them 😉

    So much chatter about Marmoush from people who don't know much about about football

      A worrying amount of regulars here clearly just use FPL points to judge players, it’s actually hilarious

        It is an FPL forum. Plenty of the analytics mob probably dont even watch football as they are so glued to their spreadsheets. There was a lady OR1 a few weeks back didnt even know who Bruno Fernandes was.

          It’s an FPL forum but if I said “Milenkovic is a better player than Van Dijk” I’d be ridiculed and rightfully so
