After a reasonably low-scoring Saturday (for me at least), we have three remaining Sunday afternoon fixtures to increase our tallies. And with the four most selected captains in action today, according to our poll, we have every chance.

The first of two televised games sees Roberto’s Mancini’s Manchester City play host to Newcastle United. The headline team news for the 1:30pm game is that Newcastle leave striker, and fantasy favourite, Andy Carroll on the bench for the first time this season. For Man City, Jerome Boateng starts his first league game and Adam Johnson is once again on the bench, despite scoring mid-week…

Man City: Hart, Boateng, Toure, Kompany, Lescott, De Jong, Barry, Silva, Toure Yaya, Milner, Tevez

Newcastle: Krul, Perch, Williamson, Coloccini, Jose Enrique, Ben Arfa, Nolan, Tiote, Barton, Gutierrez, Ameobi

Then, on the other channel, Arsenal travel to Stamford Bridge to play Chelsea at 4pm, where both clubs are looking to bounce back from defeats last week. Elsewhere, and not on the box, 18th-placed Liverpool take on 16th-placed Blackpool at 3pm.

As always, the Dugout Discussion will be with you throughout the day. Enjoy.

    ben arfa and torres out, fabregas and obinna in. could be a blessing in disguise. although i was looking forward to ben arfa home to wigan considering the lack of protection n'zogbia and rodallega give their full-backs

      It's actually not a joke any more, Liverpool are looking very much like prime relegation candidates.

      Barton looks more assured of starts and picks up BP
      however Albrighton is playing well and it would take some courgae to drop him.
      Ok, I don't know....Bye...

    How can Hodgson stay after this, Im sure the board cant afford to sack him but surely Woy will see sense and leave himself

      It is a little bit difficult to defend Hodgson if Liverpool are going to go on like this.

      Even Rafa finished 7th.

    Wow, I can't believe this! 🙁 🙁 🙁

    Hodgson needed 6 points from the Sunderland and Blackpool games to satisfy the fans and will most likely be taking 1 point.
