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.

    Is Torres going to be out for more than a couple of games? Don't want to knee-jerk him out tonight unless it's confirmed

      Screw him mate, do Torres > Berbs, it's screaming out for it. No international game for Berbs, so should be raring to go against West Brom.

    Anyone thinking of jumping off the Carroll bandwagon? Getting a bit frustrating, especially as my rival has been riding the Odemwinge train like a donkey.

        No Carroll, has 3 decent games ahead. I am at least holding off until after them. . .

          Likewise he'll be left in for a while longer yet. But if he doesn't get anything after the next few games I'll have to sadly say goodbye to girly name.
