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

    on the bright side, a chelsea blank means that chucky won't ask for a score check

    You know the game has been horrific when Matic and Kante are the frontrunners for baps.

      wow

    For us chelsea player captainers (did hazard myself) we can't say we wern't warned about this!
    I remember that hot topic earlier in the week explaining why liverpool were the best to captain.

    Robbie savage wants Alonso to come off and willian to play wing back

    1. John Nerdelbaum
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      i'd take that

    2. Here's Tom with the We…

    3. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      I think it will be Moses or Pedro that will be sacrificed

  7. Fowler23
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Kante yellow

  8. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Hazard assist, Alonso goal would be perfect

    What have people got in mind for Bet365 risk free offer today?

    1. Team Cruel

      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Ibra goal

    2. Demí
      • 14 Years

      Alli FGS

  10. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    1. John Nerdelbaum
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

  11. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Dawson suspended for 1 match

  12. KeepCalm
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Everybody getting yellows except costa..

  13. Ha.
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    I wonder if WBA will finish with 11 players?

  14. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Luiz' wig marginally offside.

  15. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    I hope Costa's doubled up on his meds again. WBA look like they're gunning for him.

  16. camarozz
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Dawson 5th yellow.

  17. keeney
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Can see a West Brom defender getting a red, hopefully Brunt

    1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      You spelt Dawson wrong

  18. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Why cant West brom defend this well against the crap teams

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Because they try to attack the crap teams as well.

    2. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      9 years, 10 days ago

      Different strategies for different opponents.

  19. SirStevieG
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Seeing how bunched Brom are around Costa makes me sick. Pulis sucks.

    1. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Yeah, let's just give Chelseas biggest threat lots of room.
      Stupid comment.

  20. Fowler23
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Chelsea need Fab on

  21. Jamie_GAWA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Double Chelsea defence is something I'm strongly considering..

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Who out of Hazard/Costa would you go without?

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Should have thought about that earlier.

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Double WBA defence is much cheaper 😉

    4. Paul
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      already have

  22. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Sorry lads, it's my fault. I got Hazard and Costa in this week for a hit and have Evans 2nd sub.

    1. Optimus.
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      I had to put their scoring to exploits an end so I threw myself under that bus also sacrificing myself for others

  23. ekul the lokonga enthusiast

    When your an arsenal supporter and a hazard captainer

    The life!!

  24. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    This game needs some Fabregas and Willian

    1. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      I agree

  25. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    The transfer I made for my -8 wouldn't even be profitable if I did them for free 😀

  26. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    So Sanchez was the right captain

    1. Mini Mane Mo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Mane or Firmino might have something to say abt that

    2. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Siggy might have something to say about that

    3. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      At the moment..

    4. Ravager
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Let's wait for the games to finish...

  27. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Really poor from hazard there, going for the Hollywood pass when the simple pass was on

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      This game has had enough safe, simple passes.

  28. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Yacob yellow

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      YaCob

  29. BullDogTevez
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    0-0 would be perfecto. Along with a Hazard red and a few Foster peno saves.

  30. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 days ago

    Evans the only WBA defender not to be booked yet 😯

    1. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 10 days ago

      Nyom?
