Gameweek 11 serves up a half-dozen early-afternoon kick-offs for Fantasy managers to sink their teeth into. The top four scoring sides this term are all in action, with Manchester City’s home tie against Norwich City shaping up to be a Fantasy goldmine.

Over the last four Gameweeks, Man City ranked second for goals (12), big chances (12) and shots on target (31), despite drawing 0-0 with Manchester United last time out. Moreover, the Sky Blues have tallied six more goals (17) and 10 more shots on target (43) in their home clashes than any other team, highlighting their dominance at the Etihad. Ally this with the fact that Norwich City rank second for goals conceded (13) and first for shots inside the box conceded (58) in road fixtures, and the Canaries could be in for a long afternoon.

Arsenal go in pursuit of their fifth successive win when they lock horns with Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium. The Gunners have dominated the attacking metrics in the last four Gameweeks – ranking top for goals (13), shots inside the box (60) and big chances (14) – and will be encouraged in the knowledge that only five teams conceded more shots inside the box than Swansea (34) over that same period. There’s also scope for the Swans to improve in the final third, given that only Watford (eight) and Aston Villa (10) chalked up fewer attempts on target (12).

The unstoppable force meets the immovable object as Leicester City make the trip to West Bromwich Albion. The Foxes chart third for goals scored (20) this campaign and haven’t drawn a blank in 10 Gameweeks. In addition, only two teams have netted more goals in road fixtures (nine) than Claudio Ranieri’s troops. The Baggies, meanwhile, rank top for clean sheets (five) since Gameweek 4 and only conceded in one of their five home match-ups – so something’s got to give.

Crystal Palace will look to secure just their third win in seven outings when they play host to Manchester United, who’ve notched three shut-outs in four matches. Newcastle look to dispel their derby-day blues as they invite Stoke City to St James’ Park, having put six past Norwich in their last home encounter. Watford’s head-to-head with West Ham United at Vicarage Road caps off the day’s Premier League action, with the visitors striving to extend their seven-game unbeaten streak.

    The scoutcast will be lovely. Granville sold Cout, Mark benched Mahrez, what did Jonty do?

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

    3. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years

    1. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Almost, Ward and Ighalo

    2. Teahupo'o
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Butland on the bench in favor of Kasper.

    3. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Bellerin and Ighalo in my bench. I'll get bellerin points if Coleman misses tomorrow's game. I sold Mahrez on wc in gw9, after drafting him, so that isn't so good!

  12. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Kola went from clean sheet + bonus to 0 with a penalty miss, you couldn't make this up

    7. Mainoo Magic
      • 11 Years

        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        67 post likely baps with Pelle and Dier to come.
        Considering I had Kolarov and captain de Bruyne I'm v.happy.
        Could've been a little sweeter obviously!

  14. Forza
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    If Kolarov scored, the average score would have been 2.5 points higher. Non owners rejoice!

  15. BrockLanders
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Benched Mahrez played Ighalo. Can't really complain

  16. 420king
    • 11 Years

    1. Puyol Pants Up
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah, fair play.

      AOA would of been wonderful this week. But it could still work out next GW.

    2. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  19. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Butland on the bench. Performs every single time. He's going to get me so many points on Monday.

    Selling Riyad hurts.

  20. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Arsenal 3 goals, sanchez(c) blanks
    Butland 11 points benched for Schmeichel 1
    Kolarov concedes stupid goal and misses penalty.

    What could have been..

    1. Rolls-Royce
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      At least you didnt bench mahrez!

  21. Milner4eva
    • 13 Years

  23. Old Man
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Us "nonKol" managers have been lucky.

    1. SouthCoastSaint
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      I was a Yaya owner and Kolarov seller (when injured).

      Could have been a catastrophic end to the day

  24. Zombie
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    So Kolarov alone made my gw shite 🙁

    KdB up for any baps?

    1. Frank Black
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      I have no idea who's up for BAPS aside from the obvious ones because TotalFpl has no data.

      1. walkman666
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Right, it seems that FPL and the two bonus sites are down.

    2. Teahupo'o
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Nope.

  25. Rolls-Royce
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Pellegrini ruined my Yaya punt.

  26. Adderz
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

  27. bibon27
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    A) Benteke

  30. Lallana_
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Non-Kolarov owners are happy now but I'll be hoping for Van Dijk to concede 20 goals tomorrow and get sent off
