Dugout Discussion – Chelsea vs West Bromwich Albion

A four-match slate of Sunday fixtures gets underway at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea host West Bromwich Albion in the noon kick-off.

Eden Hazard and Diego Costa are the main weapons of choice for Fantasy Premier League managers.

Both clinched a place in the top three of this week’s Captain Poll.

Hazard has racked up 60 of his 97 points at the Bridge, though has lacked Costa’s overall consistency. The most popular player in FPL, with an ownership level over 51%, the Spain international has blanked just twice in 14 Gameweeks.

Three goals and as many assists in four suggests that Matt Phillips is the man most likely to breach a Blues defence that’s conceded just twice in the last eight rounds of fixtures.

We’ll be looking for Scout Pick Marcus Alonso for points at both ends of the pitch today. The Spaniard – who remains a differential with under 7% ownership – has served up a goal, an assist and two clean sheets in his last three at the Bridge.

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

      They probably will end up unlocking the door but it's this type of game where having 3 CB's, 2 defensive midfielders and 2 wingbacks doesn't help breaking a defensive team.

        That's why WBA are advertising half season tickets all over Birmingham town centre. Can't give them away. Handy for me as a neutral when I want to take in a good side, went to see City play there and hoping to get to a couple of the other big games.
