A busy Sunday comes to its conclusion as Leicester City host West Bromwich Albion at the King Power.

The Foxes are seeking a fourth clean sheet in six at the King Power this time around but will need to do so without the services of Kasper Schmeichel, who is ruled out with a fractured hand.

Both Robert Huth and Danny Simpson walk the Suspension Tightrope for this one, though many will be taking the chance to scout Christian Fuchs as the schedules smiles kindly on the Foxes.

With Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy devoid of form, Islam Slimani – with 20 points in three home fixtures – and Ahmed Musa, who has scored in each of the last two, have the chance to stake a claim as differentials to consider up top. Vardy’s 9% owners are left further frustrated by Claudio Ranieri’s decison to drop him to the bench today.

West Brom, meanwhile, are devoid of talisman Nacer Chadli, who underwent minor knee surgery last week. Given that the Belgian has played a part in 75% of his side’s goals since arriving from Spurs, another shut-out could be on the cards for the champions.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

          Speaking as die hard Liverpool fan I'd say he is at the moment not bad for 5th midfielder either.

        3. MrMaverick
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          No. Wijnaldum

        Which choice?

        A) Williams to Alonso
        B) Walcott to Coutinho

        Team:
        First priority?

        Foster, Pickford
        Stones, Evans, Friend, Williams, Amat
        Walcott, Hazard, Firmino, Gundogan, Barry
        Aguero, Costa, Lukaku

          I actually think people who do this

          1 they don't get enough attention in their home lives
          Or
          2 they actually haven't got the brains to understand that it's so obvious what they are doing to us

          1. Bleach †
            • 9 Years

            Second one for the user named Penaldado I'd say 😀

        My defences score

        GW 11 - 3
        GW 10 - 8
        GW 9 - 8
        GW 8 - 12
        GW 7 - 5
        GW 6 - 4
        GW 5 - 6

        1. Sims
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I'm pretty sure my defence has scored worse. .I play with 10 me in every week

            Next game week is going to be a struggle I've currently only have 2 possible starters

            1. MrMaverick
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Yeah Im just going to have Holebas and not making any transfers

      5. The Man Pastore
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Antonio + Smith --> Gundogan + Alonso for -4pts?

        1. The Man Pastore
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          yay or nay?

        2. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Yay

      6. Numb
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Joking apart though, wonder what the qualification score is going to be? Must be pretty high I think.

        1. Sims
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I'm going for 64-65

        2. vickyz r3d d3vil$ !!!
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Must be between 42-46

          1. Numb
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Higher than that surely.

            1. vickyz r3d d3vil$ !!!
              • 13 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Its just the average that is 50. Many on FFS have scores around 50s. I dont think it would be over 50

              1. Numb
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                The average is pretty irrelevant

                1. vickyz r3d d3vil$ !!!
                  • 13 Years
                  9 years, 1 month ago

                  Sorry. Just saw the details of the cup now. With hardly 1k people, i guess it would be set at 55

        3. KingNidge
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Between 50 and 55

          1. Numb
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            More like it.

          2. Syd.
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Think I will end up on 55 but suspect that won't be good enough as the qualifying score is usually quite high

            1. KingNidge
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              TM says top 10k is a good gauge.. its 54.2.. i imagine it will be around that

        Save FT?

        Heaton / Pickford
        Vertongan / Williams / Kelly / Holebas / Kelly
        Sanchez / Firmno / Coutinho / Son / Allen
        Aguero / Lukaku / Austin

        Was thinking Son to Pedro for free, but think I could do with 3 or 4 transfers after international break to sort of my defence.

        Thoughts?

          Maybe reduced mins but with it being against United, I think he might be risked from the start.

        Are people seriously going to be ditching form players to get hazard in for hits. Yesterday's points have gone and Chelsea's next 3 matches are not easy havin boro away Spurs at home followed by city away. I'd love to get him in but I think waiting a few weeks might be a better option. I've heard of people already taking firmino out for minus 4 before he played today with good fixtures still to come. Seems crazy

          Good luck getting him in at 10.5

            Ok, well dont get him in then. Pretty simple

            No hits, just took out Sanchez. Boro will be difficult, but nothing is stopping Chelsea at this rate, they've beat better defences in United, Sot'n, and Everton by huge margins. Spurs at home is always a Chelsea win which means goals. City's defence has been poor and they're giving away errors almost every game, Hazard likely to capitalize.

            Unfortunately, Penaldo is right here, he will be way too expensive after a few weeks. I've already made that error on players like Walker this season, not happening again.

              It's literally impossible to get a solid bench with the prices of players and form

            Only 140 points here . Is that any good at all. Just what I didn't need before the international break.

            Oh and lol at non hazard, firmino,mane , coutino owners etc etc

            Now I'm off to carry on going through this public spurt gracefully...bye bye

            • 9 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            So, team in need of an overhaul:

            Cech (5.5) Heaton
            Walker Pieters Smith Collins (4.3) Kone
            Sanchez (11.1) Coutinho Mane (8.9) Gündogan Allen
            Aguero Lukaku (9.4) Wilson (6.5)

            1FT 0.1ITB

            Where do I start???....Can't believe Collins dropped again last night. Now lost 0.3 on that guy... That said, surely Wilson upgrade needs priority. Would like to claim Chelsea cover if possible, but missing price rises left right and centre...PLEASE help!!

              That is good team! With players who have good fixtures coming up!
              With cout & mane double up i wouldn't be worried about no chelsea especialy as they do have 3 difficilt fixtures coming up
